King Video

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum

Logo (1980's-1997)


Visuals: On a black background, a roaring lion, with the text "KING" below it, zooms out from the top of the screen. From the bottom left, a box quickly spins, while from the bottom right, 4 arrowheads in a "+" formation also quickly spin. They all meet up in the middle and it stops for a second. The logo flies up and the text "KING VIDEO" stretches in below, in gold.

Variant: The logo is in a hot pink rather than gold.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None.

Availability: Seen on Japanese VHS releases of Area 88 and the Peruvian drama Juliana. Can also be seen on Japanese LaserDisc releases from King Video, such as the Ys Original Video Animation. A surprise appearance is made on the 2003 DVD of Ys Special Collection, but this is due to the fact that the DVD is a direct transfer of the original release from 1993.
