Toei Anime Fair

The Toei Anime Fair (東映アニメフェア  Anime Fea) was a series of anime film events aimed at children that were held by twice per year from 1990 to 2002. It was an animation-focused successor to Toei's earlier Great Cartoon Parade/Toei Cartoon Festival (まんが大行進 Manga daikōshin/東映まんがまつり Tōei Manga Matsuri), first held in 1964, which additionally featured films based on Toei's  series.

Toei Anime Fair events were held simultaneously in theaters in major Japanese cities, during the spring and summer breaks of the. Each event was a double or triple feature of anime films based primarily on Toei Animation's currently active children's anime series, preceding wider theatrical releases.

The Toei Anime Fair series ceased after 2002. With the exception of the one-off Burst Out! 3D Toei Anime Festival in 2009, Toei did not hold any such events again until the 2019 revival of the Toei Cartoon Festival.

The first seven Digimon films all premiered at Toei Anime Fair events.

Toei Anime Fair
From 1990 onward, the Toei Cartoon Festival was replaced with two separate events: the Toei Anime Fair for anime films, and the for  films. Although the Super Hero Fair was short-lived and only three such events were held, the Anime Fair continued for twelve years.

The final Anime Fair was the 2002 Summer Toei Anime Fair, at which Digimon Frontier: Revival of the Ancient Digimon!! was shown. It was the only Fair to be deemed a box office failure. Between 2003 and 2019, the only Anime Fair-esque event to be held was 2009's Burst Out! 3D Toei Anime Festival.

Events of this style were not held regularly again until 2019, when Toei revived the Toei Cartoon Festival as an annual event.
