EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
JAPAN’S MEDIA
• Japan’s media industry has a prominent position globally, both as a market and as a creator with
global impact. Understanding the structure of Japan’s media industry is important for many -
including marketing and communications specialists, or people working in branding and media.
• Japan’s media industry is extremely creative and make important global cultural contributions.
Japan’s creative sectors include the animation and cartoon industry, movies, game software and
hardware, music, mobile communications, mobile internet and several others.
• Dentsu is Japan’s dominating agency with an overwhelming position in Japan. Starting with the
acquisition of Aegis, Dentsu is now on a path to leverage its dominating position in Japan globally.
• With a circulation of almost 72 million copies per day, Japan’s newspaper industry has much larger
circulation than that of the USA and is at the core of Japan’s media industry
• TV is dominated by five large private media groups grown out of and linked to the main
newspaper groups: NihonTelevi, FujiTelevi,TBS,Televi Asahi andTeleviTokyo, as well as the public
NHK which is financed via subscriptions.
• Internet and mobile internet are increasing steadily in importance and influence. Mobile music
takes over as a music distribution channel from traditional CD and DVD sales. Mobile games take
over fromTV games.Traditional sectors, for example Karaoke, tend to decrease in importance.
• Several dramatic take-over battles for management control and ownership of Japan’s largest
media groups, manifest changes in Japan’s media industry caused by the growth of the internet,
globalization, transition to digital from analogTV and many other factors of change.

-mobile digitalTV (one-seg) remains a niche
-linking mobile phones andTV, mobile phones/smartphones as additional screens
-liberalization of regulatory environment put on hold
-holding companies to avoid takeovers a la Livedoor/Fuji and Rakuten/TBS
-Smart phones, tablets, mobile phones:
-The transition to 3G is complete, LTE is widely deployed

NTT and the Government
-Unbundling leads to much lower prices and higher competition
-see: http://www.eurotechnology.com/store/jcomm/
-Internet and mobile internet disruption
-after an initial delay, Japan has catapulted itself to the forefront of the global internet revolution. CyberAgent is Japan’s
king of blogs, and leveraged blogs into a media group, while LINE build an empire from sticker communications.

position via acquisitions

networks, the basis of Japan’s US$ 40 billionTV industry.

Understanding the structure of Japan’s media industry is important for many - including marketing and communications specialists, or people working in branding and media. • Japan’s media industry is extremely creative and make important global cultural contributions. Japan’s creative sectors include the animation and cartoon industry, movies, game software and hardware, music, mobile communications, mobile internet and several others. • Dentsu is Japan’s dominating agency with an overwhelming position in Japan. Starting with the acquisition of Aegis, Dentsu is now on a path to leverage its dominating position in Japan globally. • With a circulation of almost 72 million copies per day, Japan’s newspaper industry has much larger circulation than that of the USA and is at the core of Japan’s media industry • TV is dominated by five large private media groups grown out of and linked to the main newspaper groups: NihonTelevi, FujiTelevi,TBS,Televi Asahi andTeleviTokyo, as well as the public NHK which is financed via subscriptions. • Internet and mobile internet are increasing steadily in importance and influence. Mobile music takes over as a music distribution channel from traditional CD and DVD sales. Mobile games take over fromTV games.Traditional sectors, for example Karaoke, tend to decrease in importance. • Several dramatic take-over battles for management control and ownership of Japan’s largest media groups, manifest changes in Japan’s media industry caused by the growth of the internet, globalization, transition to digital from analogTV and many other factors of change. 5
