1st Logo (1998?-)

Visuals: On a white background, a red shiny ball with "!!" inscribed in white drops from the top of the screen to the middle. The ball then bounces and rolls to the right of the screen, revealing the name "KYORAKU" in black. The ball rolls away from view then reappears to the left of the screen, rolling to the left of "KYORAKU". The ball turns solid red and the text turns gray.

Variant: On early machines, the ball and text are already in solid red and gray respectively from the start.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: A 7-note chime, with a "ding" at the end. None for the early variant.

Availability: Appears on pachinko machines by Kyoraku, such as Puella Magi Madoka Magica.
