'''Availability:''' Seen on Toei releases from the late 50s to 2001. Sometimes is removed or plastered with local distributors logos on export prints, but is often retained. Common films that have this are the ''Dragon Ball'' films, the Sonny Chiba ''Street Fighter'' films, ''The Fugitive From The Past'', and ''Karate Bullfighter''. The variant that says "A TOEI PICTURE" appears on the English version of Shogun's Ninja. The Thorn EMI release of ''Roaring Fire'' has the variant with the text "TOEI COMPANY, LTD. Presents" fading in below. It is not known if it appeared on any prints of ''Fist of the North Star'' but all known versions currently available do have an in-credit reference to Toei at the beginning of the film. Don't expect it to appear on any current prints of the Kadokawa Shoten-produced films that they distributed. It may have appeared on older prints of ''Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind'' but no evidence proving this has shown up as of yet. It might have also been seen on the earliest prints of ''Castle In The Sky'', as well as on original release prints of ''Kiki's Delivery Service'' but has since been replaced on most home video releases of both films with the current [[Studio Ghibli (Japan)|Studio Ghibli]] logo.
