Animerica – Space Battleship Yamato / Star Blazers – August 1995

May 8, 2012 by Lance Heiskell Leave a Comment

Lots of Space Battleship Yamato coverage in this issue. There is an article titled “The Star Blazers You Didn’t See.” Great article about broadcast edits. Plus, I never knew there was an OVA series Yamato 2520.

Last issue, Planet Anime had the first ad to display an email address. This issue, Manga Video is the first ad to include a website. I love how they included the entire address: http://www.polygram.com/manga – sad to say no record of the site on Archive.org :(((((

Manga had the cheapest VHS prices – Macross Plus Part 3 for $14.95, Giant Robo for $14.95 and Angel Cop for $9.95.

Why does Voyager Entertainment’s Space Battleship Yamato ad have the word SEE highlighted 7 times? Odd.

Name that Publisher Game!

Who wrote the following ad headline?

“He was looking for a cold beer, a warm bed, and a hot babe… Instead, he got stuck with another darn adventure!”

If you guessed AD Vision…You were right! The ad was for Dragon Knight.

Practice Makes Awesome

A Few Tips Upon Reading

First off, find a secluded area and pour yourself a beverage of choice. You must cleanse the palate to take in the delicacies of the nostalgia I'm about to throw down.

Second, if it’s cold where you live, grab a blanket, maybe two. If at all possible, sit down while reading. I hate standing, never stood for it, never will.

Finally, see if you can find the encrypted message left in the third magazine post.
