I love how these logos often still reflect the initial small scale business, a Yamaha motorbike still features a trio of tuning forks for music. A Mitsubishi… anything… has the three propellor blades of a Zero fighter plane. I made that second one up but apparently it’s three Oak Leaves or Water Caltrops, a simple and enduring symbol.
There’s a reason that popular Cyberpunk looked to Japan for inspiration when it comes to end stage capitalism in a digitally connected world.
The assumption was that these Japanese style megacorps would segregate and dominate the internet, in the way we’ve mostly seen tech-bro startups manage.
Honestly I prefer the cruel indifference of the Cyberpunk musings on megacorp dystopia than what we’ve got.

Me: I want to play games until I get fat

Me: I will also need a motor for my boat
Yamaha: anything else?
Me: An ATV for the beach, a Snow Mobile for the winter and a Jet-Ski just because they’re fun.
Yamaha: Of course!
Me: Oh, and you wouldn’t know where I could find a DVD player?

Mitsubishi literally means “three diamonds”
You forgot digital mixer, SMT assembly systems and gas generators
ITT: people who are surprised large manufacturers manufacture lots of things.

Don’t forget the jet ski saxophone and clarinet recital. Then there’s the Lexus LFA
