Moon trips * Space cities * Doomsday theories - What is the ton-demo future depicted in the illustrations?
Dear all of you who were once boys and girls, what you are about to see here are the [future projections] that appeared in the children's media from the 1950s to the 1970s.
You are about to see some of the most ridiculous and literally ridiculous
It is literally a ridiculous and ridiculous view of the future based on fantasies, dreams, and delusions. What a lie! "It's a lie!
But where in the world is the 21st century that Showa-era children enjoyed believing in?
