Kansai TV is a company affiliated in Hankyu Hanshin Holdings Group of Hankyu Hanshin Toho Group.

## History[edit]

In 1952, when the Ministry of Posts announced the first channel plan for Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya, "TV Osaka" (テレビ大阪, not the current TV Osaka) initiated by the Sankei Shimbun, as well as Kyoto Broadcasting and Kobe Broadcasting, applied for a TV license in the Osaka area. However, the TV license in the Osaka area was later obtained by Osaka TV Broadcasting, a joint operation of Asahi Broadcasting and New Japan Broadcasting (now Mainichi Broadcasting).[2]: 37 Afterwards, when the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications released a new channel frequency plan again, the Sankei Shimbun and Hankyu Electric Railway applied for a TV license in the name of "Kansai TV Broadcasting" (Japanese: 関西テレビ放送) to apply for a TV license in its name.[2]: 37 The two were integrated into "Dai Kansai TV Broadcasting" (大関西テレビ放送) in June 1957, and obtained a TV license on July 8 of the same year. On February 1, 1958, the Great Kansai TV Broadcasting Formally established, and changed the company name to "Kansai Telecasting Corporation" in July of the same year.[2]: 37 With the completion of the signal launch station in September 1958 and the completion of the headquarters building in October, the conditions for Kansai TV to start broadcasting were ripe.[2]: 38

At 16:30 on November 22, 1958, Kansai TV Station officially started broadcasting. The first program broadcast was "This is Commercial" (これがコマーシャルだ) which lasted for one and a half hours, introducing the general situation of Kansai TV and the information from East and West House. The History of Advertising From Beginning to Broadcast TV Advertising.[2]: 34–35 On the evening of the first day of the broadcast, the commemorative performance held at the Umeda Theater, as well as movies and news programs[3]: 9–10 were broadcast. At the beginning of the broadcast, since Kansai TV did not join any network, 95% of Kansai TV's programs were self-made except for news.[2]: 39 It was not until Tokai TV in December of the same year and Fuji TV and Kyushu Asahi Broadcasting in March of the following year that Kansai TV had the support of a network, and was able to reduce the number of self-produced programs to save costs, and the proportion of self-produced programs was also reduced to about 40%.[2]: 39 Kansai TV also participated in the 1959 broadcast of the wedding of the crown prince (the current emperor) Akihito and Michiko Masada. This wedding also became a major opportunity for the popularization of television in Japanese households[8]:14. Kansai TV also achieved the first program broadcast from the seabed in the Japanese private TV industry in this year, and won the People's Congress Award for this.[3]: 9–10 were broadcast. At the beginning of the broadcast, since Kansai TV did not join any network, 95% of Kansai TV's programs were self-made except for news.[2]: 15–16

Because Hankyu Electric Railway was one of the main shareholders of Kansai TV Station, the Hosei Opera became an important program resource of Kansai TV Station in the early days.[3]: 15 In 1961, the average audience rating of Kansai TV Station during the prime time reached 16.3%, and it was the first time it was rated first place in the Kansai area.[3]: 20 With the rapid development of Japan's economy, TV advertising expenses also increased rapidly, and Kansai TV's advertising revenue also increased rapidly. In 1959, Kansai Television Station turned losses into profits the following year,[3]: 22 and in 1967, it achieved zero debts. In October 1968, it was the first to rank first in the operating income of Osaka's four private four stations.[3]: 59 The program production capacity of Kansai TV Station also improved simultaneously during this period. The finale of the TV series "Udon" (うどん) aired in 1967 set a record of 49.3% ratings,[2]: 64 which is the only broadcast on Kansai TV to achieve the record for highest ratings so far except for sports events.[3]: 30 In September 1964, Kansai TV broadcast the first color program "Thunderbolt Boat",[2]: 68 and broadcast the first color production in 1967.[3]: 33 In 1969, Kansai TV realized 60% of the prime-time programs in color, and in November of the following year, all the prime-time programs were in color.[2]: 69 Kansai TV sent 30 people to participate in the 1964 Tokyo Olympics interview activities, and used color TV to broadcast some events.[2]: 53 In 1969, Fuji Television Network (FNS) was formally established, and Kansai TV station was one of the four permanent directors (The other three are Fuji TV, Tokai TV, and West Nippon TV), which have an important position in the network.[2]: 73 Kansai TV was also the first TV station in Japan to start using computers for business affairs among private TV stations in Japan. It began to use computers for salary calculation and other businesses in 1962.[2]: 94 In 1978, Kansai TV celebrated its 20th anniversary. During this period, Kansai TV made new achievements in the fields of technology and international communication. In 1979, Kansai TV began broadcasting stereo programs.[3]: 61 In 1978 and 1981, Kansai TV also invited two former US presidents, Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter, to visit Japan.[2]: 119–123

After the 1980s, as the ratings of Fuji TV ushered in a leap forward, Kansai TV also entered a peak ratings. In 1983, Kansai TV won the ratings championship for the first time in the evening prime time (19:00 to 22:00) and 19:00 to 23:00.[4]: 28 In 1985, Kansai TV further won the triple crown of ratings in the prime time, evening time, and full-day three-time period, and maintained these records until 1994.[4]: 28 Kansai TV's advertising revenue has also increased significantly with the increase in ratings. In 1985, the operating income of Kansai TV Station reached 36.9 billion yen, achieving an average daily turnover of more than 100 million yen.[3]: 61 Kansai TV is also actively exploring new areas other than television. In 1986, it produced its first film "The Capital Disappears".[3]: 70 In 1988, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of its launch, Kansai TV produced and broadcast special programs such as "Ancient Capital" and "A Journey to Central Asia".[3]: 73

In 1991, at the peak of Japan's bubble economy period, Kansai TV set a record of 61.7 billion yen in operating income and 9.8 billion yen in regular interests.[3]: 81 Under the background of excellent performance, insufficient space in the existing headquarters, and the successive relocation of Yomiuri TV and Mainichi Broadcasting to the new headquarters, Kansai TV also released a plan to build a new headquarters in 1994.[3]: 82 Due to the lack of a suitable large-scale open space in Osaka City, Kansai TV decided to obtain the new headquarters construction land in the form of land trust by participating in the Ogimachi Park redevelopment plan of the Osaka City Government.[3]: 82 In 1991, Kansai TV also set up a studio in Tokyo, so that artists could record Kansai TV's programs in Tokyo and improve program production capabilities.[3]: 89

In 1995, Kansai TV only won one prime time championship in the triple crown of ratings, and the triple crown record stopped in 10 years. Since 1996, Yomiuri TV has replaced Kansai TV and has won the triple crown in ratings year after year. This situation is exactly the same as that of Nippon TV in Kanto , which shows that the ratings competition in the Kansai area has changed from the competition among the stations. The competition evolved into a competition among network networks.[3]: 130 In addition, Kansai TV opened its official website on November 22, 1995, the first Japanese television station to do so.[3]: 152

In March 1997, the new headquarters of Kansai TV Ogimachi was completed. Beginning in April, various departments of Kansai TV began to move into the new headquarters one after another, and officially launched signals from the new headquarters on September 29.[3]: 126–128 In response to the multi-channel era, Kansai TV launched the satellite TV channel Kansai TV Kyoto Channel in 1998 , which specializes in broadcasting programs related to the history and culture of Kyoto.[3]: 120 In 2003, Kansai TV began broadcasting digital TV signals.[3]: 160 By 2007, Kansai TV's digital signal had covered 91.1% of the households within the broadcast range.[3]: 161

In April 2001, Kansai TV carried out a major program adaptation of 37% of the whole day, 57.3% of the evening time, and 62.7% of the prime time, intending to win the triple crown of ratings.[3]: 177 In 2003, Kansai TV celebrated its 45th anniversary. This year, under the background of Fuji TV's ratings recovery, Kansai TV won the triple crown of ratings again after 10 years.[3]: 177 Kansai TV also held a series of celebrations for the 45th anniversary of broadcasting in 2003, including inviting the Trieste Opera Troupe from Italy to perform in Japan.[3]: 196 In 2007, Kansai TV was exposed to " Discover! Encyclopedia of Real Things II was falsified, the reputation and image of the media were seriously damaged, and it was once expelled from the Japanese Private Broadcasting Union.[3]: 204

In 2008, Kansai Television rejoined the Japan Private Broadcasting Union.[3]: 204 During this period, due to the economic depression in Japan, Kansai TV Station also fell into operational difficulties. In the first half of 2008, Kansai TV recorded a deficit financial report for the first time since its broadcast [3]: 206 In this severe situation, Kansai TV Station decided to close the Kyoto channel and concentrate its operating resources on terrestrial television.[3]: 206 With the nationwide suspension of analog TV signals on July 24, 2011, KTV shut down its analog signal. In March 2015, Kansai TV ended its 51-year-old long-running abstract KTV-wordmark logo alongside its 8-symbol which ends their usage for the first time of 51 years since 1964, and by that, the station unifies its appellation as "Kantele (カンテレ)" as it adopts a new logo which consists of a purple 8 on a purple shadow and it is beside to the grey Kantale, so for now, its new logo will be stylized as "8 kantele (8 カンテレ)".[5]
