If there was one thing most people could agree on, it's that [=CEOs=] were evil. And CEO's of major corporations? They're the closest thing the world's ever going to get to absolute evil. Even the most humane of them have a list of deceased in their names that exceeds most war memorials, and the most depraved of them lost track after they entered the tens of millions. If there's one thing you can rely on a corporation head to be, it's cunning, ruthless, and depraved beyond belief.
Ichiban Kasuga was (reportedly) none of these things. Ichiban Kasuga, from what the few people who have been able to prove their interactions with him have to say, have all claimed that he's a mildly dimwitted man prone to acts of obscene charity, who is always willing to drop whatever he's doing to help a complete stranger out.
Not even the most gullible person on the planet would believe such an obvious fantasy.

--> Rival corporations had entire think tanks dedicated to trying to track Ichiban Kasuga's business decisions. Every move he made, no matter how small, had people questioning it. Unfortunately for the corporations that owned these think tanks, they rarely provided estimations that were even close to reality.
