About Tokai TV

TOKAI TELEVISION BROADCASTING CO., LTD. (Tokai TV) was established in 1958in Japan.

It covers 11 million viewers in the Chubu region (Aichi, Gifu, Mie, in the center of Japan)where leading manufacturers in automotive, aerospace, machinery etc. set‒up their bases.

Tokai TV produces its own TV programs such as news, sports, documentaries, dramas, and variety shows which are broadcasted both for its own channel and via Fuji Network Systems (FNS)affiliated broadcasters.

Tokai TV plays an important role in FNS as the key station which has been producing 200 drama series, the biggest number of Äb0episodes among Japanese dramas.


The subjects used in our dramas are very universal, accepted by any countries and background. –Social issues, collapsing families, people striving to live in a harsh society, relationship with people / community, regeneration, family love, Telenovela...

Since 1964, Tokai TV has produced almost 200 daytime soaps, broadcast nationwide.

Among the most popular title is thedramatic “saga” story of which spawned two otherseries, forming a mega-hit trilogy in the 80’s.In the 90’s, the “love/hate”genre, known as “Grand Roman”drama, grew ever more popular.

With the start of the new millennium,the genre further flourished-especially among the housewife viewers -thus capturing a wideraudience. Although originally produced for afternoon viewership, special prime time episodes werealsobroadcast,due to its huge popularity.
