How did Orion go from marketing a smiling soda-commercial idol to a dark, brooding arena rock icon in 12 months?

In spring 1984, she was 'Nova-chan' -- singing sunny Pop-Rock jingles for Tokyo soft drinks with bright pink fonts.
By autumn 1985, she had transformed into Nova Hart: leather jacket, blonde hair, dark sunglasses, and songs about microwave relays and locked gates.

Who has pictures of the 1984 promotional posters from Akihabara?

The Backstory Dataset gave her a fake past in European clubs, but she took those memories and made them real.
