Animated Logos

1st Logo (1988)

• 

Visuals: On a black background with some flooring, there is the Fujisankei eye symbol with some searchlights. The symbol spins around while the wordmark zooms in. Once the wordmark zooms in, the symbol stops spinning while the two searchlights spotlight at the logo before fading to black.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A triumphant tune with violin and trumpet sounds.

Availability: Seen on Professional Baseball News.

2nd Logo (1997-2001)

• 

Visuals: A silver shape flies backwards and in a turning motion. It is revealed to be an abstract drawing of a eye with three eyelashes and a round pupil that stops in the middle of the black screen and "twinkles". As the small flash from the "twinkle" shrinks away, the screen turns white and the eye changes color as well (the pupil turns red, and the rest black), forming the Fujisankei eye symbol. Above and below the eye, blocks of "static" turn into words in dodger blue-colored letters. Above it is "FUJI TELEVISION NETWORK, INC." Below the eye is "FUJI CREATIVE CORPORATION".

Variant: On reruns of later seasons of Iron Chef, this logo's text differs a bit from above. The animation is still the same, but only "FUJI TELEVISION NETWORK, INC." fades in below.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A dreamy chiming sound ending with a synthesized ring.

Availability: It was seen on American airings of Iron Chef (the original series, not Iron Chef America) on Food Network and the Cooking Channel. The Iron Chef variant can also be seen on some Japanese airings of Thomas & Friends.

3rd Logo (1998-2001)

• 

Visuals: The camera zooms out through a blue space background full of asteroids, until it stops to a yellow Saturn with various space rocks below. The camera rotates as the planet becomes the Fujisankei "Eyemark" symbol, and the rocks became the golden "FUJI TELEVISION NETWORK, INC." text below. The logo stands for a few seconds with the space background zooming back.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Two locking sounds.

Availability: Seen on Iron Chef in Japan and the first USA adaptation of Iron Chef.

4th Logo (October 7, 2007-November 23, 2012)

• 

Visuals: On a blue background, there is a white square. Inside it, there is the Fujisankei eye symbol with the words "Original Format Created By" in black on the top and "Fuji Television Network, Inc." (in its corporate font) in red on the bottom. Two knives appear after about a couple of seconds.

Technique: A mix of digital traditional animation with CGI.

Audio: The theme for The Next Iron Chef.

Availability: Seen on episodes of The Next Iron Chef.

5th Logo (June 15-July 2, 2022)

• 

Visuals: On a black background, there is the Fujisankei eye symbol in white, with the words "FUJI TELEVISION NETWORK, INC." being placed around the symbol's circle.

Technique: A still image.

Audio: Silent.

Availability: Seen on episodes of Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend.
