Animage – February 1995 Issue
Title (cover headline): マクロス7 vs マクロスプラス 世紀末アイドル決戦を彩る超映像とは！？
Published: February 1995
Publisher: Tokuma Shoten
Category: Anime magazine
Description:
This is the issue that documented competition between Macross 7 and Macross Plus, two of the best 1990s mecha anime series. Animage, since 1978 one of the leading anime magazines, was one of the most important platforms for fan engagement, interviews, and preview animation early on. It also touches on Yu Yu Hakusho and the 17th Animage Grand Prix.
Design Notes:
The cover features cel-style anime art combined with digitally textured backgrounds. Edgy gold typography, neon pink highlights, and stacked-on text reflect the dynamic look of 1990s anime design. Fighter aircraft and expressive characters evoke the crossover media popularity of the time.
Designer:
Animation studios likely provided artwork and Tokuma Shoten's in-house editorial staff likely did the design.
