Kachou Shima Kousaku

Also known as: 課長島耕作, Kacho Shima Kosaku, Section Chief Shima Kousaku

by Kenshi Hirokane

Kosaku Shima depicts the life of Kosaku Shima, a salaryman, a Japanese white-collar worker who devotes his life to his company. The fictional conglomerate is modeled after Panasonic, or Matsushita Electric, where Hirokane worked before and is highly accurate in its portrayal of Japanese corporate culture.
