Hello there
Please take my advice with a grain of salt because I am really new to bonsai but your leaves look exactly like the leaves on my trident maples and I was given great advice on here, it’s a fungus not really sure what type but I went to a Home Depot and purchase some Daconil ready to use spray. Make sure to read the instruction and shake the bottle first, mine had so many leaves infected that I had to remove about 60% of the leaves before I sprayed mine and so far it’s been working great and they are getting new leaves. But like I said mine is a trident maple and I am by no means any type of expert, I attached some picture of what mine looked like to compare with yours, I hope it helps a little. Just wait a little bit the people on here are wonderful and are so knowledgeable I’m sure you will get some really great advice and good luck ?

Yes overwatering. Or more accurately, not drying out quickly enough because of various factors. A healthy established tree should dry out regularly in summer/late spring. (here and Sth Calif, every day or less) Romainia? who knows, but if it stays wet for more than 3 days you have either over-potted or have the wrong mix or both. Or have it too protected. Trees like wind, sun, and water. But you need all three.

What's considered "established"?
After the new roots have reached the sides of the container and started to grow along them.
