Animerica June 1993 – Silent Mobius -Kia Asamiya – Guyver and Orguss Ads Volume 1, Issue 4

Bit of an interesting choice of a swimsuit cover for Silent Mobius.  The features covers Kia Asamiya manga work.

This early in the release of Anime on VHS, the hurdle of explaining that anime is for adults not a cartoon for children, has just started.

US Renditions ad for The Guyver and Super Dimensional Century Orguss have the cautionary “Videos are not rated and all contains profanity & violence. Orgus: Slight Nudity, Parental Guidance Suggested.

This ad also wins an award for “Best Contrast For Text Box” -dark green background on black text with white shadow. Click on any of these ads for an 800 pixel width version to see a larger size if you need to.

AnimEigo has as their warning text box:”Your First Teacher’s Warning: If I’d known you were going to watch subtitled Anime, I’d never have taught you to read in the first place!”

I also like fun rating  “S” – Subtitled for the Japanese language impaired

Central Park Media had this for Grave of Fireflies: Animated drama, Unrated, Suitable for most audiences. I thing they should have added “bring some tissues on this one, trust us.”
