1st Logo (1984-1985)

Visuals: It's simply a print version of the next logo fading in and out on a blue background.

Technique: None.

Audio: None.

Availability: Seen on early Daiei Video VHS releases from the era.

2nd Logo (1985-1999)

Visuals: We see some quick flashes as the stars fly out with green lines, then the golden-yellow letter "V" with two straight lines each on top appears, placing on the center on a dark blue background. The green star flashes on the "V", and the lines extend as the words "DAIEI" and "IDEO" appear to make a complete word "DAIEIVIDEO". They shine.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A synth fanfare.

Availability: Seen on Japanese VHS, VHD and Laserdisc tapes from this company, such as anime titles and releases of Daiei movies.

3rd Logo (1999-2003)

Visuals: On a smokey background with lines moving, we see blue and white letters moving from each other. It quickly rotates, and then the letters of "DAIEI VIDEO" appear in a plain 3D font. The letters and lines disappear, and the background turns black.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A xylophone theme, and a whooshes, culminating in a synth note.

Availability: Seen on later Japanese VHS and DVD releases, like Nagoriyuki.
