Another reason someone may add a background that does not match to a cel, is to maybe show parts of the cel that would not show up otherwise. Below is a cel I have of Tamahome, and it has white streaks that show the action. However without a background, you can't see them. So I added my own. True it is the cel itself that is the real beauty and reason that you buy it in the first place, but I feel a background can only enhance it, so why not? I'm adding a background to a cel I am recieving soon, because I plan on getting it framed. I feel it will present it better if it has scenery behind it that reflects the scene, thus the characters would seem more real. We buy cels for the art, but for the characters too, right? Just my two-cents. Everyone have a nice day. ^^
