Cels Forum

 This is cute, although whether it's just the effects of an 
all-nighter or something, I don't see how the thread title 
pertains to the thread o.O or maybe I'm just sleep-deprived.
(yeahyeah, what else is new. *doze* must finish my darn 
finals and papers, sorry Clinton for not keeping in touch, 
email is the bane of my existance during the shiken no 
kisetsu *urgh*)

 Well, I'd have to say that if I found an awesome Gundam 
cel (of a Gundam) I would lust after it. (<-- Mecha and 
assorted sci-fi junkie) It depends on the series, but most 
Gundam series are wonderful for their plot and politics, and 
the mecha... wow, it's hard to think that except for the 
limitations of fuel, such hulking beasties are probably 
possible to create today (with all the sadness they would 
also undoubtedly bring to war). I disliked Gundam Wing (after
obsessing over it for about a week) because it suffered from 
the boy version of the Sailor Moon syndrome. Cute boys, like
pretty girls = instant brew for anime popularity? I'm just
glad GW has a story to redeem itself ^^;

 As for cels I would never THINK of buying... foremost would 
be Sailor Moon cels, which makes them extremely good targets 
for gifts to friends who -do-for-heaven't-sake- like them. 
(not that I have, yet ^^; but been thinking about...) and 
assorted shoujo henshin series like Wedding Peach, CCS... I 
wonder if Rayearth counts... (I think it's in the gray area 
^^;;) Shonen henshin, though... well, only accepting Shulato
for now.
 What else... no Takahashi cels... can't stand the lack of 
noses and enormous eyes with tiny pupils =) and her stories 
are so lo~~ng (well i.e. UY, Maison Ikkoku, Ranma...) No 
Dragonball cels for that reason, too, though I wouldn't mind 
a token mirai Trunks and 18-gou (my favs in the manga)
 And no monotone cels. If they're going to grace anime with
color, there'd better be shading, too! ^^

Jey.
