This morning, Reuters is reporting that Toyo Construction (1890 JP) has asked the Japanese government to investigate alleged breaches of the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act by YFO. 
Why? The Very Japanese family office of Nintendo's founding family used Cayman entities to purchase Toyo shares and Toyo was re-labeled as having businesses in "Core Sectors" in October 2021.
Toyo has also repeated its complaint about changed "intentions" on large shareholder filings. That bit of the complaint is 10 months old. A closer look at the details within.

<ul>
<li>YFO continues its fight on Board governance. Toyo Construction has shifted so the Board and a Special Committee will now examine the input Toyo says YFO has not provided. </li>
<li>Toyo also objected because it said YFO's bid could not be sustained based on Toyo's economics. Toyo's fight should have been offence. With a new Medium-Term Management Plan, it is.</li>
<li>Toyo now promises strong revenue and double digit OP growth, and a ¥50/share (5.3%) dividend. Toyo is trying to pay off shareholders to support it against YFO. That's fair/good.</li>
