Background

Discotek Media is a home video distribution company that releases anime, live-action films, and TV series on DVD. They are well known for their distribution of obscure cult classic productions that would otherwise not get a re-release.

1st Logo (2006-2008)

Nickname: "The Discotek Girl"

Logo: On a white background, we fade in to see a girl in a hip fashion holding a spray in a disco pose. Then, the text "DISCOTEK" was red in a graffiti-like font wiping in the left. Finally it fades out.

FX/SFX: The girl appearing, the text wiping in.

Music/Sounds: A techno theme that's supposed to resemble some disco beat. A man says "Rock The Discotek!" in synch with the beats.

Availability: Rare. It appeared on their release of Puss in Boots, one of Hayao Miyazaki's early films. It can also be seen on distributed anime releases, most notably Lupin III.

Editor's Note: The animation is poorly designed and bland, not to mention the music is conducted poorly. Old-school anime fans like this logo, however.

2nd Logo (2013-)

Nickname: "Simple Discotek"

Logo: On a black background, we see the text "DISCOTEK" in a graffiti-like font, on the bottom was the text 'MEDIA" in a small font.

Variant: On a promo reel for upcoming and recent releases, there is a stone-like background to the logo as it zooms in slowly.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Current. It was first seen on their release of Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, and then on later releases.

Editor's Note: The logo looks tacky and poorly chyroned in, but again this logo is liked by old-school anime fans.
