((First off-I do not disagree that anime or 
cartoons are art.  Anything that is drawn, carved, 
painted, chipped, stenciled, chisled, etc etc etc, 
IS ART.  A kid drawing on the sidewalk with chalk 
is making art.  That chalk drawing isn't 
Picasso,though.  In the same vein, Loddoss isn't 
Picasso, either.  I'd put it in the same category 
as Litchenstein, and I love his art.  As someone 
else said on this forum, pop culture art is often 
the most treasured and looked upon as signs of the 
their times, but unfortunately whether or not they 
hold their value is very much up to chance.  So 
don't get so defensive, ok?  I'm not disagreeing 
with you))

(Which leads me to --) It is unlikely that the 
vast majority of anime series will survive the 
times and that cels of them will be of any value.  
I have a feeling that some of the popular series 
like Tenchi, et al, will stay in their time and 
not be of value in 50 yrs.  So, what do you think 
WILL be?  What cels will skyrocket in value and 
still have a signifigant monetary value in half a 
decade?  (remember, this will be past the 
nostalgia point when all of us are old and have 
money to spend on past memories -- we'll all be at 
least 70 -- so it would have to be a whole new 
generation of fans)

My votes go for - 
The early classics (Tetsuwan Atom, Kimba, etc)
Some Miyazakis
*possibly* a Mikimoto series... macross?

...in the US... No idea what will survive in 
Japan.
