On July 28, Tsuburaya Fields Holdings hit its daily limit up on the Tokyo stock market. The upward revisions to its full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027 and its medium-term management plan, announced the previous day, were taken as a positive surprise, triggering a flood of buy orders from the morning. Meanwhile, Koei Tecmo Holdings fell back on profit-taking after its first-quarter operating profit jumped 51 percent to 5.4 billion yen, a sharp increase that nonetheless fell short of market expectations. Nippon Ichi Software hit a new year-to-date high but pared its gains toward the close. Of the 99 registered gaming and entertainment-related stocks, 36 rose, 55 fell, and 8 were unchanged, with sellers in the lead.
