From what I've read, they waited for high tide, brought the anchors (rear I assume) out to sea and winched itself back out gently, they had 3 tug boats helping too. There was a narrow gap between reefs they had to navigate back through as well. It did make it back home to Japan for repairs. None of the many tonnes of fuel, oil etc... was removed or spilled either.
