Happily, I'm not into douga/genga. ^_-
And I agree, it does seem WRONG to sell douga
separate from the cel THAT IT CAME WITH. I look at
it like buying a pack of [something] with each
item labelled "not labelled for individual
retail sale."
HOWEVER -
And this gets tricky - for some collectors it is
understandably impossible to buy the original cel.
And, in most cases (unless it's a digital anime),
the douga will always sell cheaper. While this may
leave an ethical bad taste in many people's
mouths, it also provides a reasonable avenue of
collecting for some people who are huge fans of
Eva or Kenshin but with limited pocketbooks, for
instance. ?? I'm ambivalent. -_- *sigh*
