President Shimazaki Kousaku (社長 島耕作), Kenshi Hirokane's continuation of the Shimazaki Kousaku salaryman series, was serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Morning from 2008 to 2013. Vol. 1 opens with Shimazaki's appointment as the first president of Hatsushiba-Goyo Holdings, newly merged from his employer and a rival electronics maker, as he takes on plant closures, restructuring, and a global recession.

- Vol. 1 covers Shimazaki's inauguration as Hatsushiba-Goyo Holdings' first president, an event significant enough in-story that it draws real news coverage, mirroring an actual press conference reportedly held around the character's 25th-anniversary promotion. Begin magazine's manga-watch feature identifies the watch Shimazaki wears from this point on as a Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945, calling it a fitting choice for a manufacture built on old-world craftsmanship; no source cites a specific case metal or complication to narrow it past the line itself.
