Visuals: On a bright blue/black background obscured by moving clouds, the white pieces of the "JVD" logo from before zoom out and join. Afterwards, the background changes to a purple flash and turns back to the moving clouds with a purple tint on them. Light beams in blue, purple and red shoot to the right and form the words of "Japan Video Distribution" next to the logo. Rays appear coming out from the logo moving horizontally, and the background changes to black as a white glow is shown behind the logo.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: A long synth pad note.
Availability: Can be seen on DVDs of cult films distributed by the company, such as the remastered version of Zatoichi.
