Im not sure but shouldnt the toho era icon be applied to Daimajin and the Heisei Gamera kaiju

Im aware they didnt create them but they did Distribute movies with them

The reason i ask is because the AoT titans and the MH Apceros have Toho era tags but wasnt created by Toho. - Zillaman98 (talk) 02:53, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

As Toho was only involved in the Gamera trilogy once, it only distributed it to Japanese theaters Daiei has released it everywhere else, and I don't think the Toho icon is needed on the Daimajin page as they only distributed it with them. - Kaiju No 14 (talk) 3:58, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
You ignored the AoT titan and Apceros part of the question Zillaman98 (talk) 03:00, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
The example of Attack on Titan and Monster Hunter isn't comparable because Toho produced both of those movies.
There is precedent for the Toho icon being on pages for Toho-distributed topics though, like The Last Dinosaur. I guess it's probably fine, but I'd be interested to get other input. Les (main | talk) 03:03, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Right i forgot they did produce them i mainly used the specific monster pages having the toho era tags on them because they was not originally being created by toho as an example was what i was trying to get at i hope i didn't cause to much of an issue i apologize if i did
I also agree with wanting more input on this before a finalized decision is made . Zillaman98 (talk) 03:05, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
An Example going against this however is Toho Towa did distribute 10 cloverfield lane I don't honestly see the toho era tag fitting on ether of its titular monster's pages.Zillaman98 (talk) 03:11, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
10 Cloverfield Lane is not a Japanese movie though; Toho-Towa was not its primary distributor. It was produced by Bad Robot and distributed by Paramount, but it still has the Paramount icon.
The Heisei Gamera trilogy are Japanese movies - Toho were responsible for their theatrical runs in their native market, which I think should be considered differently from a release in another region. Les (main | talk) 03:16, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Also, another example I just thought of is Warner Bros. distributing the MonsterVerse movies, which were produced by Legendary. The WB icon is on all the Titans' pages. Les (main | talk) 03:18, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
