Coolest Cover Art

Post by Daniel »

What's your favorite cover art? I kind of like the Dragonball Japanese VHS myself.

I've always been fond of Speed Grapher cover art

It's too bad the show's actual animation art was kinda blah compared to the various promo art.

Ah, Yusuke Kozaki...I love his style. He also did the character design for No More Heroes, which I LOVE. 8-)

I always thought the Sailor Moon laserdiscs (especially for Sailor Moon S) were gorgeous. The Urusei Yatsura ones were great, too, always really fun and colorful.

Also I LOOOOOVE the original cover art for Vampire Princess Miyu (the 80s OAV, not the TV show). I almost want to find the Japanese LDs just so I can hang them on my walls or something.

Of course I've always loved the VHS covers for Ranma 1/2. This one in particular because it was my first VHS "Darling Charlotte".
