Source/Appeared in:  Episode 10 "The Shuddering Mountain, Part I"

Original Broadcast Year: 1996

Studio/Publication: Sunrise

Created by:  Tomino Yoshiyuki 

Condition Notes: -

Description:  Amazing book/pan-size cel setup with all of the layers except for one with Ez-8's legs, after Noris in Gouf Custom was struck by Shiro when he realized who the pilot was!  

As you can see in the screenshot, the kabuse layer was used to depict the rapid movement and vibration of a very large object such as a Mobile Suit.  The setup can be displayed without it and will still look 100% complete, or with the kabuse layer aligned completely with the base layer!  

Apparently, when Kawamoto Toshihiro (the chief animator/character designer of Cowboy Bebop who also was the character designer of 08th MS Team) was working on Cowboy Bebop, the president of Sunrise, Inc. complained to Kawamoto and said "Are you trying to bankrupt the company!?" to which Kawamoto replied, "I'm sorry, but it is not costing nearly as much as the 08th MS Team did."

A surviving setup like this really helps explain why the production cost of this show became so high, but this fight scene between Ez-8 and Gouf Custom is regarded to be one of the best fight scenes in the history of Mobile Suit Gundam!

Source/Appeared in: - 

Original Broadcast Year: 1985

Studio/Publication: Studio Deen

Created by: Oshii Mamoru

Condition Notes: Both layers stuck

Description:  An incredibly rare and precious color proof/character model cel of the Girl and the bag she's holding in the beginning!  Very interesting to see how the prominent white hair of the Girl was drawn on an overlay layer even in the model sheet, providing incredible depth and movement in each strand of the white hair. Upon further research, the handwriting of names and color codes seem to be written by the animation director Nakura Yasuhiro, and most likely the original sketches for these proof cels as well!

Used in the production of the epitome of Avant-garde fantasy film created by an iconic anime director Oshii Mamoru, in collaboration with legendary artist and scenic/character designer Amano Yoshitaka.

The film was made a few years before the famous Final Fantasy video game series was released, and the artistic style is definitely reminiscent of the early titles as the Boy looks almost identical to Frioniel, the main character from Final Fantasy II released in 1988.  The atmosphere and backgrounds inspired by a French book about architecture owned by Oshii are also very simlar to the Medieval European-theme of the early Final Fantasy games.  Oshii Mamoru was initially intending on making this film far more light-hearted with a comedic touch in the beginning stage of the production, where a young girl holding an egg suddenly arrives at a convenience store late at night, with strange people loitering around the area.  However, as soon as the young Oshii got a glance of the artwork by Amano Yoshitaka, he immediately knew that "this has to be done as a full-blown fantasy film." 

While the result was undoubtedly a masterpiece, it was far too esoteric to be accepted by the general public, subsequently leading to Oshii losing all job prospects for the foreseeable future due to earning a reputation of "a director who makes incomprehensible films," as even Miyazaki Hayao has commented about the film "I will recognize the effort, but nobody will understand it."  The recognition took even longer due to the lack of access until the relatively-recent DVD release, but it is safe to say this film is a proof that a masterpiece will sooner or later be properly recognized and appreciated, as long as it isn't hidden and forgotten!  Truly the pinnacle of Japanese animation as an art, and a product of the inspiring sacrifice and uncompromising dedication Oshii has put into executing this film in his own vision.

Condition Notes: -

Description:  A very high quality cel in excellent condition, as it was made much more recently than the original broadcast year of 1979!  Depicting a memorable scene when Lieutenant Slegger Law is introducing himself to the crew, playing a role of a stereotypical handsome, hardboiled, laid back but caring blonde and blue-eyed American military officer, much like Mickey from Area 88. 
Tomino allegedly asked Yasuhiko to make Slegger resemble Sylvester Stallone from the Rocky series, but that apparently confused Yasuhiko who has not yet seen Rocky at the time.

Source/Appeared in: -

Original Broadcast Year: 1985

Studio/Publication: Studio Deen

Created by: Oshii Mamoru

Condition Notes: -

Description:  An incredibly rare and precious color proof/character model cel of the Girl and the bag she's holding in the beginning!  Very interesting to see how the prominent white hair of the Girl was drawn on an overlay layer even in the model sheet, providing incredible depth and movement in each strand of the white hair. Upon further research, the handwriting of names and color codes seem to be written by the animation director Nakura Yasuhiro, and most likely the original sketches for these proof cels as well!

Used in the production of the epitome of Avant-garde fantasy film created by an iconic anime director Oshii Mamoru, in collaboration with legendary artist and scenic/character designer Amano Yoshitaka.

The film was made a few years before the famous Final Fantasy video game series was released, and the artistic style is definitely reminiscent of the early titles as the Boy looks almost identical to Frioniel, the main character from Final Fantasy II released in 1988.  The atmosphere and backgrounds inspired by a French book about architecture owned by Oshii are also very simlar to the Medieval European-theme of the early Final Fantasy games.  Oshii Mamoru was initially intending on making this film far more light-hearted with a comedic touch in the beginning stage of the production, where a young girl holding an egg suddenly arrives at a convenience store late at night, with strange people loitering around the area.  However, as soon as the young Oshii got a glance of the artwork by Amano Yoshitaka, he immediately knew that "this has to be done as a full-blown fantasy film." 

While the result was undoubtedly a masterpiece, it was far too esoteric to be accepted by the general public, subsequently leading to Oshii losing all job prospects for the foreseeable future due to earning a reputation of "a director who makes incomprehensible films," as even Miyazaki Hayao has commented about the film "I will recognize the effort, but nobody will understand it."  The recognition took even longer due to the lack of access until the relatively-recent DVD release, but it is safe to say this film is a proof that a masterpiece will sooner or later be properly recognized and appreciated, as long as it isn't hidden and forgotten!  Truly the pinnacle of Japanese animation as an art, and a product of the inspiring sacrifice and uncompromising dedication Oshii has put into executing this film in his own vision.
