Thought a Navbox was something the classic Tōei Dōga features could do with, as many have articles but all tend to be near-orphans; this should give them all helping hands towards making connections. The problem is deciding what constitutes "classic"; after several iterations the best I've come up with is listing only feature films (i.e. 45 minutes or longer and created for cinema exhibition) from prior to the change of name to Tōei Animation (in 1998)and not based on an existing animated television production: so including Hyokkori Hyōtanjima, which is based on a live-action series and Kindaichi Shōnen no Jikenbo which pre-dates the TV series of the same name but not the numerous Kinnikuman and Dragon Ball features, which would drown out everything else and are already relatively well-connected. Tōei have also, confusingly, distributed films from other animation studios under the Tōei Animation brand – specifically Office Academy's Yamato movies (though the rule of no TV spin-offs handily excludes those anyway) and several Madhouse productions – so one needs to not include these by mistake as well. All this and the tagline to explain it is hardly elegant but it's the best I can think of for now, suggestions being welcome. Turtleheart (talk) 01:49, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think this navbox should be splitted into multiple navboxes (each per decade) due to its length. Thoughts? --LoЯd ۞pεth 17:16, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
