JFE Setonaikai Golf Club (it's Scottish links with palm trees) will host the latest edition, Nov. 29 thru Dec. 2. I don't know the magic number for how many get the best priority status in 2023. Using Google Mush, here are a few of the better names from the field of 96:
* - Going on my hazy memory, this is a past winner on Japan's big tour
Princess Mary Superal Hikari Fujita *
Phoebe Yao *
Yukari Nishiyama *
Nanoko Hayashi Rie Tsuji Eimi Koga Miki Sakai *
Hikaru Yoshimoto Chae Young Yoon Asuka Kashiwabara *
Ji Hee Lee *
Na Ri Lee *
Hikari Tanabe Akira Yamaji Mayu Hattori *
Reika Usui Ji Hye Park (of Australia) Maria Shinohara Rio Ishii Hana Wakimoto Satsuki Oshiro Rumi Yoshiba *
O. Sataya *
Hina Arakaki *
Yumiko Yoshida *
Maiko Wakabayashi *
Erina Hara *

Top 30 get Full Card for entry to the first half of the years schedule until the reshuffle, from past history if your between 30 - 40 its no big deal as you will get in pretty much every event bar a few.
The major change I have noticed over the years is the decreasing number of Korean players playing full time on the JLPGA, only 7 kept there full card which includes the return from maternity leave in Sun-ju Ahn.

A few pics from Tuesday -
If Q-school is so easy, I don't know why Yumiko Yoshida ever retired in the first place.
A spotter concerned with his personal safety, I guess.
JLPGA is brutal ... Maiko Wakabayshi won last year, but she has to go slumming this week ... PVC pants?

I wonder if Natsuka Hori is going to the Jump Tour like Kotone did to get back on Tour.

Even an article on the JLPGA website is deliberately vague on the magic cut-off number from the final scores ... per Google mush:
The QT Final will determine the qualifications for the 2023 JLPGA Tour and Step Up Tour. Until the 1st JLPGA tour re-ranking, QT rankings are obtained excluding seeded players, but around 30th place is the border line every year.

The article above assesses the damage for Ji Hee Lee, Chae Young Yoon and Mamiko Higa.
Eight Head ... "It's not going well. How can I comment..." Regarding next year's schedule, she only said, "I haven't thought about anything yet, so I'll think about it after I return (to Korea)."
Mamiko Higa ... completely collapsed in 2022 with 31 trunk slams ... "There were times when I wanted to run away,'' she said, looking back on this year.
