Toei Animation

Toei Animation produces animation and commercialises screen and character rights, with activities extending from television and films to licensed consumer products.

What does Toei Animation produce?

The studio plans and produces animation for television and cinemas, then supplies it through channels including broadcasters, streaming platforms and home-video releases. Its film business also licenses streaming rights and produces work for streaming services. The corporate profile distinguishes the Nakano headquarters in Tokyo from its Oizumi production studio, an important distinction when identifying the listed company and its operating locations.

How does character licensing contribute?

Toei Animation's licensing business places characters from its works into toys, games, stationery, food packaging and clothing. It also supplies character rights for promotional campaigns. This creates a second route for a programme's popularity to become commercial activity beyond viewing the animation itself. The company's European business identifies Dragon Ball, One Piece and Sailor Moon among its established titles, illustrating the connection between screen productions and character recognition across markets.
