2. Reasons for Amendment

YU-GI-OH! OFFICIAL CARD GAME DUELMONSTERS series, popular card game products, 
both existing  titles  and new titles that launched into the Christmas  sale, 
showed significant growth of sales.
The acquisition of PEOPLE CO., LTD. through TOB in February, the largest fitness
facility  operating company in Japan, has resulted in the increase of  sales  in
March  2001. Since card game products are comparatively profitable, the ordinary
income rose tremendously.
Although  losses on sale of the Company-owned real estate such as residences
for  the employee accounted for as extraordinary losses, net income for  the
year ended March 31, 2001 has increased.
Net sales, ordinary income and net income of the year are expected to  mark the
record highest.
