    "body": "**Kodansha** (株式会社講談社, Kodansha Ltd.) is een grote Japanse algemene uitgeverij met hoofdkantoor in Otowa, Bunkyō, [[place_japan_pref_tokyo|Tokio]], en het kernbedrijf van de bedrijvengroep Otowa[^s2].\n\n## Geschiedenis\n\nIn november 1909 richtte Seiji Noma de Dai Nippon Yūbenkai op, die begon met het debattijdschrift *Yūben*[^s2]. Na de start van *Kōdan Kurabu* in 1911 gebruikte zij naast Dai Nippon Yūbenkai ook de naam ‘Kodansha’[^s2]. In januari 1925 werd de naam Dai Nippon Yūbenkai Kōdansha; in december 1938 volgde de omvorming tot naamloze vennootschap onder de naam Kabushiki Kaisha Dai Nippon Yūbenkai Kōdansha, en in 1958 de huidige naam Kabushiki Kaisha Kōdansha[^s2]. In 1933 verhuisde het hoofdkantoor naar Otowa-chō in Koishikawa-ku (nu Otowa, Bunkyō)[^s2]. Het presidentschap is achtereenvolgens bekleed door leden van de familie Noma; in 2011 werd Yoshinobu Noma de zevende president[^s2].\n\nTot de bedrijven van de Otowa-groep behoren [[organization_kobunsha|Kobunsha]] en King Records[^s2]. De laatste jaren is het bedrijf blijven groeien: in 2016 werd Ichijinsha en in 2024 Wani Books een volle dochteronderneming[^s2]; in 2023 lanceerde het de mangadistributiedienst K Manga, eerst in de Verenigde Staten, en in juni 2025 was die uitgebreid naar meer dan 30 landen[^s3].\n\n## Hoofdactiviteiten\n\nDe uitgeverij geeft meer dan 30 tijdschriften uit, waaronder *Weekly Shōnen Magazine*, *Morning*, *Shūkan Gendai* en *Gunzō*, publiceert literaire boeken, manga, praktische en wetenschappelijke boeken, en beheert diverse onlinemedia[^s2]. Tot haar uitgaven behoren *Norwegian Wood* van [[person_douban_58f26ab32b17|Haruki Murakami]] en *Totto-chan, het meisje voor het raam* van Tetsuko Kuroyanagi[^s2]. Ze organiseert ook prijzen zoals de Noma-literatuurprijs, de Eiji Yoshikawa-literatuurprijs, de Kodansha Manga-prijs en de Edogawa Rampo-prijs[^s2]. Sinds de jaren 1950 bezit ze de boekuitgaverechten op personages van The Walt Disney Company en is ze officiële sponsor van Tokyo Disney Resort[^s2].\n\nDe bundels van [[work_chiikawa|Chiikawa]] verschijnen sinds 12 februari 2021 onder het label Wide KC Morning en waren in november 2025 bij deel 8 aangekomen[^s1]. Uitgave en personagelicenties liggen bij verschillende partijen: de uitgave ligt bij Kodansha, terwijl de externe licenties op de personages worden beheerd door het rechtenbeheerbedrijf [[organization_spiral_cute|SpiralCute Inc.]][^s1].\n\n## Bedrijfsresultaten\n\nKodansha behoort samen met [[organization_shogakukan|Shogakukan]] en [[organization_shueisha|Shueisha]] tot de grote bedrijven in de Japanse uitgeverswereld; de omzet lag in de tweede helft van de jaren 1990 boven de 200 miljard yen, in 2002 werd het eerste naoorlogse verlies geleden en sinds 2015 groeien de inkomsten uit e-books en rechten snel[^s2]. Over het boekjaar tot november 2025 bedroeg de omzet 169,1 miljard yen en de nettowinst 11,1 miljard yen; in april 2025 had het bedrijf 972 werknemers[^s2]. De grootste aandeelhouder is de Noma Cultuurstichting, een algemene stichting met rechtspersoonlijkheid (39,2%)[^s2].",
