National institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) are the implementing body of ITER project in Japan and takes the lead in fusion DEMO reactor development in Japan. The primary candidate of the breeder blanket for JA DEMO is Water Cooled Ceramic Breeder (WCCB) blanket. ITER-Test Blanket Module (TBM) program is an opportunity for the demonstration of DEMO breeding blanket concept under actual fusion environment. QST has led the development of the WCCB TBM Concept in the program since the signing of the TBM Arrangement in 2014. The preliminary design of test blanket system (TBS) is on-going. Recently, the status of the preliminary design of TBS was assessed between QST and the ITER Organization (IO). So, the status of the latest TBS design and the DEMO relevancy is presented.
