Its initial headquarters were in Higashi-ikebukuro in Toshima, Tokyo. In February 1993, because it had to have more space due to an increase in its operations, it moved to the Tamura Building in Higashi-ikebukuro. For the same reason it moved to Ikebukuro Hara Building, also in Higashi-ikebukuro, in February 1995. It moved to the Ikebukuro East Building, also in Higashi-ikebukuro, in May 2005.[1]
