Showa Chibikko Future Gazette / Seigensha

Showa Chibikko Future Gazette / Seigensha

The Showa Chibikko Future Gazette by Seigensha brings nostalgic future visions imagined by children of the Showa era back to life. Published in the Visual Bunko series as the third installment of Chibikko Retro Future, this book collects absurd and fantastical future predictions from children's media published between the 1950s and 1970s. Moon travel, space cities, artificial suns, and apocalyptic visions — these illustrations depict the 21st century that Showa-era children dreamed about while saying "No way!" but secretly believing in their hearts.

Featuring works by Shigeru Komatsuzaki, master of science fiction illustration, and illustrations from the forbidden book of 70's subculture Nazenani Study Encyclopedia, this collection explores the 21st century that never came to be. Genre-specific introductions cover Daily Life, Transportation, Robots, Computers, Space, and Apocalypse, bringing readers on a time travel journey through nostalgic keywords: artificial sun, great apocalypse, earth exodus, and moon travel.
