NOTE: The 1993 J.League was the inaugural season of the J.League Division 1. In its first year, the league followed a split-season format, and each halves (or stages) were known as the Suntory Series and the NICOS Series. The two clubs that won each series qualified for the first ever Suntory Championship.
