These cels were bought by me directly from
Japan, from a verified source who worked for
Pacific Animation, the animation studio that did
all the art during the production of the show. I
have seen douga, genga and original matching
backgrounds from this source. These items all
show the kind of aging that it typical of
animation art that is from the 80s, such as
yellowed tape, semi-rusted staples, slight
cracks in the acetate near the punch holes, line
fading etc. There is no doubt in my mind that
they are 100% real.
