'''Logo:''' In a strange room, we zoom up to a floating white sphere that opens up and starts shooting out projections through spotlights. These then erratically move about, revealing the landscape of a flower garden. The camera then rotates around the newly made flowers and flies off, all before fading to a fly-over shot of a forest, with mountains in the back and birds flying about. The sphere then flies back into the shot and shoots out more spotlights, transforming the shot into a desert landscape. The sphere flies up into the sky as the background fades to white, then to an overhead shot of an ocean. Dolphins can be seen leaping out of the water as the sphere returns to the screen and heads towards the clouds, fading back to white. It then fades into a shot of space, with the Earth and Moon in frame and "JOTX-TV" zooming in slowly, before giving a pulse and shining away, as the sphere floats silently about. The sphere then closes up as 2 streaks, 1 red and 1 blue, orbit around the sphere as the background fades out. The sphere and streaks then zoom out and disappear, with the TV Tokyo logo fading into place, as well as a thick white outline. | '''Logo:''' In a strange room, we zoom up to a floating white sphere that opens up and starts shooting out projections through spotlights.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Several clicks can be heard at the beginning, with a shifting synth tune playing in place. It then leads to a music box-like tune with woodwind intervals. Then, a calm piano tune plays twice, with the same interval in the middle. The piano tune becomes much more dramatic as we reach space. A drumroll finishes it off, before ending with a different music box tune. | '''Music/Sounds:''' Several clicks can be heard at the beginning, with a shifting synth tune playing in place.
