Popeye Vol. 175, published in May 1984, is a vivid reflection of Tokyo’s youthful energy in the mid-80s. Subtitled Magazine for City Boys, this issue —titled Official Onna no Ko Handbook 2— explores the nuances of teenage relationships and the allure of understanding “girls” from the perspective of its curious male readership. With its pop-art palette, playful compositions, and tongue-in-cheek tone, the magazine blends humor, fashion, and cultural commentary, offering both style inspiration and a snapshot of gender dynamics in the bubble-era youth culture. Published by Magazine House, Popeye continues here its mission of translating global trends into the uniquely vibrant language of Tokyo street life.
