Bandai Visual Redivides Into 6 Departments

And here we have the top contender for "the most useless news of the day". Bandai Visual's parent company Namco Bandai Holdings is announcing a large-scale reorganization of its internal structure, which - among others - will result in the division of Bandai Visual into six departments, making it a bit more fragmented than before.

As a clear indication of their most profitable money-milking brand, one of those six will be the "Gundam department", dedicating itself entirely to Bandai's mecha anime franchise. Satoshi Kubo will be its chief producer, and in case you're wondering about the heads leading the other five departments, you'll find them in ANN's report.

The departments themselves, by the way, are as follows: the high-end department, the character department, the anime department, the film department, the music department, and the aforementioned Gundam department.
