What anime magazines were published in Australia during the 90s?
I’m reaching out to older anime fans in Australia: I’m searching for a specific magazine from the 90s that featured an article on Iria, as well as the Zeiram movie that it’s based on.
Have any of you come across local Australian anime magazines from that era?
P.S. I’ve heard of Oztaku, but I know that was from the 2000s.
In the 90s, there were a few anime-related magazines that were published in Australia. One notable magazine was “Animezine,” which covered a variety of topics related to anime, manga, and Japanese pop culture. Another magazine that fans might remember is “Manga Mania,” which often included content on both anime and manga. It’s possible that the magazine you’re thinking of with features on “Iria” and “Zeiram” could be one of these.
Although “Oztaku” is well-known from the 2000s, these earlier publications played a significant role in the anime community at the time. If you’re looking for more specific issues or features, forums and online groups dedicated to retro anime in Australia might also be helpful in jogger people’s memories!
