the display controller displays, as the opening animation image, an animation image, in which an image display operation of changing a display form of a graphic object is periodically repeated, on the display panel,

the display controller displays, as the opening animation image, a first animation image in which an image display operation of gradually enlarging a ring-shaped graphic object from a predetermined small size is periodically repeated, and a second animation image in which an image display operation of changing a wavy graphic object so as to spread in a horizontal direction is periodically repeated, in the display region of the display panel,

the display controller periodically repeats an image display operation, in the first animation image, of displaying the graphic object in the small size, gradually enlarging the size of the graphic object, and removing the graphic object when the size of the graphic object reaches a predetermined large size, and

the display controller periodically repeats an image display operation, in the second animation image, of displaying a pair of left and right wavy objects in a region corresponding to an inner side of the ring-shaped member as the wavy graphic object, and moving the pair of left and right wavy objects toward a left outside and a right outside, respectively, so that the pair of left and right wavy objects is displayed in a region extending from the region corresponding to the inner side of the ring-shaped member to a region corresponding to the outsides.

2. The vehicular display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the detector includes a door sensor that detects opening and closing of the door of the vehicle as a sensor that detects the getting-in action,

the display controller displays a vehicle exterior image illustrating an exterior view of the vehicle in the display region of the display panel when the getting-in action is detected by the detector, and

the display controller displays the vehicle exterior image with the door opened when the opening of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor, displays the vehicle exterior image with the door closed when the closing of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor, and then removes the vehicle exterior image.

3. The vehicular display device according to claim 2 , further comprising:

an image memory in which an image illustrating the exterior view of the vehicle is stored in advance, wherein

the display controller displays the image illustrating the exterior view of the vehicle as the vehicle exterior image.

4. The vehicular display device according to claim 2 , further comprising:

an image memory in which a plurality of vehicle exterior images including a vehicle exterior image illustrating an exterior view of the vehicle and a vehicle exterior image illustrating an exterior view of a vehicle other than this vehicle are stored in advance; and

a selector that selects one vehicle exterior image from the plurality of vehicle exterior images stored in the image memory according to an operation of the occupant, wherein

the display controller displays, as the vehicle exterior image, the vehicle exterior image selected by the selector.

5. The vehicular display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the display controller displays the vehicle exterior image with the door opened when reopening of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor before the driving source is started after the vehicle exterior image is removed, displays the vehicle exterior image with the door closed when the closing of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor before the driving source is started, and then removes the vehicle exterior image.

6. The vehicular display device according to claim 5 , wherein

the display controller removes the vehicle exterior image when the driving source is started during displaying of the vehicle exterior image.

7. The vehicular display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the display controller preferentially displays the vehicle exterior image in the display region of the display panel over the opening animation image, when displaying the vehicle exterior image.

8. The vehicular display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the detector includes a door sensor that detects opening and closing of the door of the vehicle as a sensor that detects the getting-in action,

the display controller displays a vehicle exterior image illustrating an exterior view of the vehicle in the display region of the display panel when the getting-in action is detected by the detector, and

the display controller displays the vehicle exterior image with the door opened when the opening of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor, displays the vehicle exterior image with the door closed when the closing of the door of the vehicle is detected by the door sensor, and then removes the vehicle exterior image.
