Johnny & Associates head resigns amid founder's decades of sexual abuse

Johnny Kitagawa, founder of Johnny & Associates, sexually abused hundreds of boys and young men over several decades.
Allegations against Kitagawa emerged in the 1990s but were largely ignored until recent media attention.
Julie Fujishima, Kitagawa's niece and agency head, admitted to the abuse and resigned from her role.
Noriyuki Higashiyama, a former boyband member, has taken over leadership of the agency.
Johnny & Associates has pledged to compensate victims, while media companies vowed to increase oversight.
