Toei Animation Museum

The Toei Animation Museum is the company museum of Toei Animation, run by the studio itself at its Oizumi studio in Nerima, Tokyo. The museum describes Toei Animation as the oldest anime production company still in business. Its works include Sally the Witch, Mazinger Z, Galaxy Express 999, Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, One Piece and Pretty Cure.

The company began as Nihon Doga in January 1948 and was renamed Nichido Eiga in 1952. Toei bought it in July 1956 and renamed it Toei Doga, and production moved to Higashi-Oizumi in Nerima in 1957. The name Toei Animation dates from 1998.

The exhibition area shows setting sheets and other production materials from Toei Animation's library, from current series, past hits and anniversary titles. A section on how an anime is made follows a work from planning to completion, split into the analog and the digital eras, beside a touch-panel wall of clips from the studio's works. A photo area has a spot with every Pretty Cure heroine and a dance corner where visitors dance along to series such as Pretty Cure and Butt Detective. The courtyard has a fountain of Pero, Toei Animation's symbol character.
