This design can make people more aware of the importance of Japan as an oriental culture. The basic form of the emblem is the five-ring pattern, which is also the symbol of the Olympic Games and represents the ownership of the five continents.

The emblem pattern is composed of 18 different elements, which means that the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games is just the intersection of the 20th century and 2 1 century, and Tokyo will be the capital in 2000. The design team also used the Japanese hieroglyph KANNOJI to design, expressing the cultural patterns of Tokyo and Japan.

The original design of the emblem of the Oriental Olympic Games has been criticized by many people. Many people think that the emblem is too simple, like a child's painting, lacking the depth of design and the power of symbols. However, after the official announcement of the emblem, many people changed their views and praised the design team for internalizing Japanese culture into simple patterns first, and then incorporating them into the emblem in a combined and three-dimensional way. This design just embodies the Japanese aesthetic concept. The emblem of the East Olympic Games has even become a collection, and people's evaluation of it is getting higher and higher.
