<u>Nickname:</u> "The Sun on the Sky"

<u>FX/SFX:</u> The sun rays starting to shine. Fairly simple animation, but good for its time.
 
<u>Music/Sounds:</u> The opening theme of the movie.
 
<u>Availability:</u> Can be seen on every film (excluding early ones) produced from the company, including the famous ''Rashomon'', and ''Ju Dou''. It is also seen on later films before the company's closure like ''Pulse''.
 
<u>Editor's Note:</u> None.
