'''Availability:''' For many years this logo was unused. The fact that the logo is listed on teamLab's portfolio alongside products that are definitively in use asserts its official status and suggests that it was a pitch for a new logo that lost out to the next logo. Nevertheless, the logo can be seen on teamLab's official YouTube channel. Eventually the logo would appear on movies such as ''Josee, the Tiger and the Fish'' and ''Sing a Bit of Harmony''.
