    Reports concerning Toshio Suzuki's alleged use of company funds

    A Japanese tabloid reported allegations that Toshio Suzuki had directed company funds toward a business connected with his girlfriend. The reports were linked to tensions surrounding executive changes and Koji Hoshino's departure. The allegations were not corroborated by mainstream Japanese media, and a Studio Ghibli spokesperson denied that Hoshino's departure was caused by the reports.
