'''Visuals:''' There are 12 boxes on the screen containing the logo. One of the boxes disappeared, showing a person with a costume. The other boxes randomly keep appearing/disappearing, also showing a person with a costume. This continued for a few seconds until the boxes began making patterns synced with the music. After a few seconds, red boxes appeared in the middle row with their slogan at that time, "楽しち12ガ月" (12 months of fun). The red boxes later disappeared one by one, showing all the people with costumes. They greet the viewer, then it cuts to the logo in the white background with "JOTX-TV" on the top, the channel 12 logo in the middle, and the phrase "東京12チャンネル" (Tokyo Channel 12 or Tokyo 12 Network).

'''Audio:''' A ticking (almost similar to a ticking clock) sound plays every time the boxes appear/disappear, which later accompanies a short jingle played in a flute.

'''Visuals:''' On a white background, the station logo is seen in the middle of the screen, consisting of a 2-striped green "12" with "テレビ東京" below, in a very angular font. Above it is a message in Japanese, which is also green. The logo then becomes black as bars appear one by one in various shades of green, which turns the logo white as well. The logo moves to the left as multiple copies of the callsign "JOTX-TV" slide in a diagonal pattern, with the camera stopping on a larger copy in the middle of the screen. The callsigns then disappear and the background shrinks to a cube shape, which turns to an angle. Multiple copies then appear and panels start flipping onto them, changing through many different colors before cutting to a pattern of diamonds that flap and change into birds. The rest of the logo then shifts through many different color combinations and patterns of shapes and animals. The final pattern than turns yellow and converts back into the cubes at the beginning. It continues like in the beginning, but every cube except for the middle one fades out when it finishes. The cube then rotates to the screen and zooms in, revealing the same call signs as before, all before cutting to the same logo zooming out save for a different message on top.

'''Audio:''' A repetitive synth score. An announcer is heard starting in 1985.

'''Audio:''' A calming tune, made with strings, keyboards, and a woodwind. An announcer can be heard near the end as the theme goes into a final flourish. Several sounds can also be heard throughout.
