Did I foresee this happening or was this just coincidence? I'm gonna go with the latter.

Read: Shinkai will be making anime for Toho until an unforeseeable future (as if it's not obvious already).

I’m surprised this made the news. A 6% stake in CoMix is such a small amount that it seems like this is nothing more than a “we believe in you” investment. I.E. don’t think too hard about this investment.
I guess Japan has the same stock reporting laws as the US. In the US, you have to declare once you acquire more than 5% of a companies shares. ANN must have setup an Alert for any disclosures Toho makes.

I mean, ain't he already - considering his movies for last 11 years were distributed by no other than Toho?

My point exactly. It's as if they were afraid he would secretly make a deal to make movies for their rivals, Aniplex for example.

Nah, it's very doubtful - Shinkai pipeline of movie production doesn't add up with Aniplex at all.
If anything, it seems like Toho just want to invest to their long-term partner for benefit of their own instead of trying to circumvent the possible contract rivalry.
