Japanese companies are judged as friend or foe when it comes to foreigners, and if they think they are enemies, they run away from their enemies.
Fighting with foreigners has historically only resulted in a loss for Japanese companies due to the “political decisions of the two countries,” so they choose to run away from the situation.
In fact, Tadumi of NIJI is the one who resisted.
With the Trump tariffs, I expect Japanese V firms to adopt a strategy of leaving only their own allies behind, such as abandoning only USA when it comes to downsizing in English-speaking countries, or abandoning white streamers living in North America but continuing to negotiate with Asian EN streamers living in Japan.

I live in Japan, and the general atmosphere in Japan, as reported by Japanese newspapers, TV, and social networking sites, is changing to “the more we get involved with the USA, the more we lose Japan, so it's better to stay out of it.
It is possible that cover's management headquarters may be affected by this atmosphere.
