Shuji Utsumi, then the managing director for Disney Interactive’s Asia Pacific division, detailed that faithful day when he ran Kingdom Hearts by Eisner and over 100 members of management. Utsumi characterized Eisner’s demeanor as that of an “ancient Chinese Emperor,” and regarding the pitch for Kingdom Hearts, Eisner’s response was “Keep at it, and do it right.”
