* August 28, 1953-June 30, 1972: On a black background, we see a large, transparent-looking N, with the letters T and V spaced out in the sides of the letter. The words "JOAX-TV" are seen on the bottom of the logo. After a few seconds, we fade in to three doves standing on a birdcage, spreading their wings to the rhythm of the music. The birdcage fades out and the doves begin to fly off one by one, with one dove remaining; this dove flaps its wings and zooms towards us. This fades into a black "NTV" wordmark (in a bold font) zooming in over a white background. The background becomes black, and "NTV" becomes white. The text "日本テレビ放送" (which stands for "Nippon Television Broadcasting"), in an LED display-like font, scrolls to the left. We see the TV station's info (including the channel number and the broadcasting frequencies) on a sign made up of arrows. Finally, the screen cuts to the end card, as explained below in the Trivia section.

* July 1, 1972-September 30, 2001: The first part of this ident is a colorized version of the original one, where the big N is {{Font color|steelblue|steel blue}} (with "TV" in {{Font color|#1e90ff|light blue}}), the birdcage is {{Font color|#d2b48c|brown}}, and the doves are {{Font color|blue|blue}}. When the last dove zooms towards us, it morphs into glittering sparkles that form a wreath of confetti over a black background; the stars in that wreath quickly turn into doves, and a star shines in the center of that wreath. The wordmark "NTV", in white and in the same font seen in the previous end card, shines and zooms in, without its color switching this time. The background becomes a very {{Font color|navy|dark blue}} color. The text "日本テレビ" ("Nippon Television") scrolls left, in the same font as the one seen in the original ident, but colored {{Font color|orange|orange}}. We cut to a new channel info screen set on a white background; there is a tile-like animation done three times, revealing different white text (the first screen shows "JOAX-TV" over a series of {{Font color|orange|orange}} tiles, the second shows "4チャンネル" ("Channel 4") over a series of {{Font color|blue|blue}} tiles, with the "4" bigger than the rest, and the third shows "日本テレビ" over a series of combined {{Font color|blue|blue}} and {{Font color|orange|orange}} tiles). Afterwards, the end card is shown.

** From this point on, the station's broadcasting frequencies are not stated anymore in the ident, instead appearing on the test card (along with the station's transmission output for both frequencies) that is broadcasted before the ident is shown.
