Yes, and on a broader scale Japonesque also means the Japanese influence on Western art in general.
I remember Kuu saying something about the album that she observes how K-Pop gets popular all over the world and that she wants to remember how Japan did that before and there's still great music made there, something along the lines back then.
Her approach now is a more modern one while back in 2013 the goods were more traditional like already mentioned.
That pop font and the whole design is very anime-like or also reminiscent of the Japanese fashion subcultures e.g. in Harajuku (Kawaii Monster Café anyone?).
Plus all those Japanese references like the paper crane and the rising sun made into a popular band shirt design from the West.
Reminds me of the Japanese pop culture boom in the '90s and early 2000's. That's probably the reason the other part has a newspaper style ( and btw. it is French and it makes sense, thanks LiDaYu.
