Notes

  1. At the time, the "Toei Production Department" and "Toei Televison Production" were parts of Toei Photo Department. Toei Production Department was involved in "Key Hunter," "Playgirl" and "Judo Ichokusen." Toei Television Production produced crime dramas.
  2. Since the assistant director wasn't trained in still photography, Tanaka negotiated to take photos in his own way. He came to take pictures for posters and theater prints free of charge. Afterward, toward the middle of the 1980s, he had helped directors for nearly 800 Pink Films.
  3. Made by Production Taka. Stars Rumi Tama.
