For some time I have wondered why I come across passages in catalogs that seem to use Tokai as an adjective.
The most blatant example is the phrase "Extra Tokai". I have always wondered how you can have extra of a brand name.
Recently I came across this passage in translating a catalog that is the clearest explanation yet of what it may mean when they use the word Tokai in this way.
From the 1987 Vol 13 catalog:
“When speaking of ST, it is a product with such confidence that it is often referred to as Tokai.”
So Tokai in some ways implies confidence? OK, I can accept that.
