The Shinjuku Musashinokan (
When it was rebuilt in 1968 as part of a multi-purpose building, occupying the seventh floor, it changed its name to the Shinjuku Musashinokan. Its owner, Musashino Kōgyō, also started other theaters using the name, such as the Ōi Musashinokan and the Nakano Musashinokan.
The Shinjuku Musashinokan still operates as a theater showing films on three screens.
