In the men's final, the defending Japanese champions Team Consadole skipped by Yuta Matsumura defeated the Yusuke Morozumi rink TM Karuizawa 7–2. Matsumura and Morozumi also met in the final of the 2020 Japan Curling Championships, with Matsumura winning 6–4 after nine ends. Team Tsuyoshi Yamaguchi, also of Karuizawa and the junior team of Takumi Maeda also qualified for the playoffs, with Yamaguchi winning the third place game 7–4 in an extra end.

On the women's side, the Tori Koana rink, representing Fujikyu capped off a perfect 5–0 tournament by defeating Team Loco Solare skipped by Satsuki Fujisawa 5–4 in the final. Despite winning the event, Team Koana was not eligible to compete in the 2021 Japanese Olympic Curling Trials, as it was held in a best-of-five tournament between the Fujisawa rink and 2021 Japanese champions Team Sayaka Yoshimura, representing Hokkaido Bank. 2019 Japanese champions Team Seina Nakajima and Japanese junior champions Team Sae Yamamoto also qualified for the playoffs, with Nakajima taking the third place game by a score of 5–3.
