Oh what the heck...I'll play along. Besides,
it's unnerving to see the forum this empty. O_o
Most collected: Hmmm...this is kinda difficult
to measure. Without a doubt: Dragon Ball,
Sailormoon, and Tenchi. Fushigi Yugi, Cardcaptor
Sakura, and Slayers are probably up there too.
How about a list of series that would be most
collected if they weren't so expensive/limited:
Last Unicorn, Mononoke, Lodoss OVA, Evangelion,
Cowboy Bebop, Oh My Goddess!...
Cute/Cheap Series: For me this was Tenshi Ni
Narumon. Although, I started collecting because I
truly love the series, not just because the
characters are cute and the cels were cheap. As a
whole, the cels are still cheap, but the really
nice shots of popular characters/moments can get
pretty expensive.
What do I look for in cels: I always admire
people who have specific wish lists. It's not so
easy for me. I usually have a vague notion, but I
rarely seek out cels from particular moments in a
series. Sometimes I don't know a cel is a
wishlist cel until I see it on a dealer site or
on auction! ^_^; I'm usually attracted to near
centered portrait cels where the character has
open eyes and an interesting expression. Because
of this, I basically just keep a small list of
characters that I'm looking for. And I will
almost never list cels that I know that I
couldn't possibly afford. I know what I'm
willing to spend, so I try to keep it within
those parameters.
Hope that satisfied your curiousity a little!
