Notably Possible News [NPN] Imperial 'Favorite' Tamagahane Cements Monopoly

By Hugh Dickson
Political Reporter, Nepleslia Prime News

Imperial puppet company Tamagahane Corporation continues to expand operations and assume direct control of various non-nationalized businesses operating in Yamataian space with the blessing of the current Empress Ketsurui Himiko, securing an increasingly large monopoly of a variety of industries in the sphere of YSE-DIoN space.

The Tamagahane Company, a hypercorporation effectively under the control of the obscure Tamagahane Clan, was founded in YE 33 when they inexplicably amassed the capital to purchase Emrys Industries, and Geshrinari Shipyards, two companies that held significant sway in the Nepleslian marketplace as well as the audiophile-preferred electronics company Taichimora Entertainment Technologies. This is the fourth such merger in two years, and is the latest capstone in the meteoric rise of a company that for most of its existence had a dubious reputation as the 'best swordmaker on Yamatai'. This growth is attributed to market analysis of Yamataian society by our anime-watching neckbeard interns, who assure this publication that the average Yamataian citizen buys an average of 7.3 Tamagahane katanas (the metal lovingly folded upon itself one thousandfold times) and 1.3 used Nekovalkyria panties per day.

As confirmed by SANDRA, the Tamagahane Company has finalized purchase of former one-time rivals of the Ketsurui Zaibatsu, Motoyoshi Fleet Yards, and their parent company NovaCorp citing reasons that nobody really payed attention to because that other, state-funded news organization we keep making fun of is a soulless propaganda machine. NPN psychoanalyst consultant Patricia Bandersnatch states that a particularly vindictive mind might consider the acts of continued socioeconomic and military reconquest over the profligate UOC something akin to revenge. Or given the particularities of Yamaticizations... some sort of... Revengeance.

Political analyst with a respectably handsome first name Chuck Mayhew, from NNN News, has repeatedly directed attention to the particular relationship between the Tamagahane and the sovereign Ketsurui, who crush all before them in the name of a Pax Yamatai and march upon the corpses of uncounted million with a plastic olive branch in hand, citing that the purchases would have been flatly impossible without the express backing of another powerful monopolist organization- which will go unnamed but might rhyme with "All Bets It's Yui".

The results of the merge will likely go largely unfelt by the Nepleslian economy for some time, though the lack of market competition and the continued accretion towards hypercorporations which are internally self-sufficient may herald a return to corporate monarchies and 'capitalist feudalism'- which recent urban archeological digs confirm, might have possibly-happened at some point on Nepleslia. If it did at all.
