General / Shonen Jump a company?

No trouble!  Like I said, I'm new so I appreciate the help understanding SJ.  What the question comes down to is if they can be considered their own publisher.  In the United States, SJ manga are published seperate from the Viz label.  Is it the same in Japan?

I'm chatting about this with Senior Staff now.  I had a few reasons for approving this, because despite it being considered part of Viz comics in America, even the American publication is a seperate company that is a project between Viz and Shuueisha (I believe)

I considered subsidiaries to be something approvable, thinking of it as something like how Taco Bell is owned by Pepsi, but you don't really consider them the same.  However, like I said, I'm talking to Senior Staff about it and getting an opinion.  I'm still new and learning!
