AliceSoft

Background
AliceSoft (アリスソフト) is one of the most famous eroge (Japanese term for "erotic game") developers. Founded in 1989, the company is mostly known for the Rance, Tōshin Toshi and Evenicle series of games.

Logo (2004-2008)
Nicknames: "Alice-chan", "The Cute Logo Before Sengoku Rance"

Logo: All of the variants of the logo consist of the company's mascot, Alice-chan, and the logo sliding from the right side of the screen. The logo consists of the text "ALICESOFT" in black with the dot of the "i" in yellow, with two squares at the left featuring the trademark Rance character Hanny in white, with "SINCE 1989" in a bar below and the red slogan "it's eroge maker!!". The versions of the logo change depending on the month or season the game is launched.

Variants:
 * Summer: Over a sparkly blue background, we see Alice-chan, in cut-out chibi style, dressed up in a swimsuit bringing up the logo. The background then brightens up and the screen fades to white.
 * October: Over a white background we see Alice-chan in a school gym suit carrying a red flag with "1" in it. Confetti is seen moving and Alice-chan is slightly moving and blinking. The logo then slides in, settles and fades away as usual.

FX/SFX: Animation in super deformed anime style.

Music/Sounds: A gentle theme, with instruments changing depending on the variant.

Availability: Uncommon. Seen on Rance VI, Sengoku Rance and Beat Blades Haruka.
