After this, in a similar way, some were constructed as virtual five-tiered Tenshu but made as nominal four-tiered ones, regarding the fourth-tier roof as Hisashi (eaves), as in the case of Tsuyama-jo Castle (1616) and Fukuyama-jo Castle (Bingo Province) (1622), and some were constructed as five-story Tenshu inside but made to appear three-tiered from the outside as in the case of Takamatsu-jo Castle (Sanuki Province) (1669).
これ以降も同様に、津山城（1616年）や福山城(備後国)（1622年）のように4重目の屋根を庇とみなして事実上の5重天守でありながら名目上4重天守とするものや、高松城(讃岐国)（1669年）のように内部5階建てでありながら外見を3重とするものなどが造られた。
