As of 1955, the Minamimachi area had a total of three separate movie theaters including the Minamigai Theater. The other two theaters were the Namba Toho and the Minamigai La Scala.
The number was upgraded to five by 1959 when two more theaters named the Minamigai Cinema and the Minamigai News Theater (which opened on December 21, 1957) were added nearby. A sixth theater was added as well called the Minamigai Meigaza (but closed in August 1974), and the Minamigai News Theater was later renamed the Minamigai Cultural Theater.
On December 18, 1959, 70mm projection was installed at the Minamigai Theater after being renovated the previous month.
