It’s become a hot topic that Japan’s 50 years of decline is clear at a glance from a single World Expo poster.

Local area.

Really, what do you mean it was cooler back then?

It looks like a North Korean poster.

It looks like a North Korean poster from the early 80s lol
Who made this?

This is the pattern that Takahashi Rumiko uses when throwing in retro-style gags.
Very Showa-era.

There are only six months until the opening, but what is the construction status like?
0014Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Nara Prefecture) [eu].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:55:43.63ID:Cw13ivKp0
It’s just that advertising companies have become much more middle-man-driven.
0015Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Mushroom) [at].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:55:45.57ID:j6tAz6vL0
I felt that keenly at the Olympics.
0019Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Fukuoka Prefecture) [br].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:56:52.80ID:45/AOTuA0
Is it because if they make it a logo it will be considered a copy?
0020Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (SoftBank) [hk].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:57:14.15ID:1O+dOU2U0
The decision-making for the Expo is being done by thugs from the Restoration Party, right?
It’s wrong to expect thugs to be cultured.
What they have is not culture, it’s coercion.
0022Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Garden) [mx].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:57:30.56ID:aDAjl1RO0
I wonder if we can compete with Seibu Amusement Park?

Why are you eating takoyaki?

The flying cars were cancelled and takoyaki is the main attraction of this Expo.

Didn’t you know that?

0041Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Hyogo Prefecture) [us].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 11:00:49.77ID:C0rYy0M00(3/4)
>>23 They’re idiots, so they could only make a run-of-the-mill poster that equates Osaka with takoyaki. How is this an Expo? It’s just a prefectural festival.
0024Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (mushroom) [nl].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:57:40.73ID:QsoSJXQM0
Maybe a school play.
0025Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (garden) [cn].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:58:03.93ID:9amZKr4d0
It seems the opposite.
0026Guard [lv.8] [Sprout] (Garden) [jp].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:58:08.64ID:PfkzzWFH0(2/5)
You can now make something like this even for school festivals lol.

No, that’s seriously terrible lol.

Osaka is over.

Because they took out too many middlemen, they couldn’t hire a famous designer lol.

Just make it a tin sign.

The quality is worse than a high school cultural festival
This must have cost about 5 billion yen to produce.
0034Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (mushroom) [us].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 10:59:27.91ID:S+IPgiEA0
Was it something called Broccoli?
There’s also this poster for a Japanese movie.

There is a drawing of Atom, but is it in a Showa-era style?
0043Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (mushroom) [eu].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 11:01:57.49ID:JJxi5k+90
Where is the client who can responsibly give the money and the go-ahead to an abstract design right now? If your boss asks you if a poster with just the event name and an abstract painting will attract customers, can you say with certainty that it will be a huge hit?
0044Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Zipang) [Nida].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 11:02:01.68ID:ZW7dbdKm0(1/4)
You can tell from the fact that he’s a mysterious character.

Robots = the future, right? But if the illustrations are left as they are, it’s only natural that they’ll have a Showa-era feel to them.
0046Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Hyogo Prefecture) [us].Oct. 7, 2024 (Mon) 11:02:42.81ID:C0rYy0M00(4/4)
I hope the Nankai earthquake will cause it to be cancelled. It would be such an embarrassment.

That’s a good idea
Wouldn’t that weird ring be praised for turning into a raft?
And sink into the ocean with the compression material, earning it even more infamy.

You can eat takoyaki and other things even if it’s not at the Expo.
