Concerning the confusion around the transfer:
As I understand it, japanese companies will move their employees around, often with little warning and no real say from the employee in question. This can be to a branch of the company in another part of Japan (or sometimes overseas). Here's an article in english that touches on the subject:

I also found this japanese article that explains "the three objectives of personnel reassignment", but I'm too lazy to do a full translation of it:

Basically the three objectives they give are:
1. The development of the employee (new skills, perspectives, etc.)
2. Improving the company's profits.
3. Preventing the employee from getting stuck in a rut.

I suspect nr. 2 is the most common/truthful reason
this is fun
