The pencil company referenced in the article does not appear to have been part of the Mitsubishi zaibatsu however.

I used to think it's cool the same company makes a pencil and an F-16 derivative ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_F-2 ), but alas, the pencilmaker is not the same company.

Mitsubishi also makes the world's most expensive toaster: https://youtu.be/Lq3iwWaoU7w
