operated under the leadership of Co-CEOs, Tadashi Saegusa and Masayuki Takaya, since June 2002. [10] Beginning that year, the new management implemented a series of reforms including the following: Discontinuing Diversified Business Model: Misumi chose to return to its core business of precision mechanical industrial components for die-and-mold and factory-automation applications only, and cut ties with all subsidiaries that did not align closely to this core practice. Expanding Overseas: To extend the QCT model abroad, Misumi began building out infrastructure including sales offices, logistics centers, and manufacturing sites in each new market entered. Acquiring SURUGA SEIKI: In acquiring this development and manufacturing company, Misumi brought manufacturing in-house. [11] Delegating Authority Across the Organization: In 2007, Misumi brought the concept of “small is beautiful” to its operating companies, organizing its business into small autonomous teams responsible for sales, product development, and manufacturing.

[102] Anime[edit] In 2021, Western localized versions of the anime censored the Buddhist manji swastika (卍) symbol used by the Tokyo Manji Gang, in order to avoid potential controversy that may arise from confusion with the similar-looking Nazi swastika (卐) symbol. The removal, carried out by the Japanese licensors and affecting all versions of the anime officially distributed outside Japan, has itself proven controversial, as some fans have criticized the resulting version both on technical and freedom-of-speech grounds. [103][104] However, the official Southeast Asian and South Asian
releases of the series by Muse Communication started releasing the uncensored versions later on, leaving Crunchyroll the only official streaming site outside of Japan to have the anime censored.
