Konami Video

Logo descriptions by Logophile, and MvBoys2 Photos by Video captures by Editions by MvBoys2

Background: This was a division of video game company Konami, used to distribute anime.

(1980s?-1990s)
Logo:  On a black background, two glowing lines crawl in from the top and bottom of the screen (the top line is red and the bottom is yellow). They meet and pass each other, forming the Bacon Strips logo as they move. When the lines go off-screen, the logo rises a bit and a blue line quickly moves downwards, then slows down to form "KONAMI" as it goes off-screen. The logo glows.

FX/SFX:  The lines, forming the logo, the glowing.

Music/Sounds:  A Japanese-style synth piano tune with metallic sounds when the lines form the logo. A sparkling sound is heard when the "KONAMI" is formed and when the logo glows, the ascending/descending bell synth sound as seen on the third Konami logo is heard.

Availability:  Seen on anime tapes from Japan.

Scare Factor:  Low, the lines, music and black background might scare some, but it's not too terrifying.
