Unknown Artwork Identification Help

Post by Keropi »

I posted this a couple years ago, but more people have probably seen the anime by this point (and the anime might be out commercially in English now).

Does anyone know what anime this comes from?:

They came with my To Heart 2 TV series and Kasimasi set.

I acquired them June 11, 2006 if that helps narrow things down a bit.

Not sure but the design is simular as the Yugi Sakai sketches I have form Shakugan no Shana.

Does anyone have any idea where this cel and background come from? I got it a long time ago, but still have no idea where it came from:

no idea, but if you ever find out, please let me know. I have a couple of book backgrounds that are almost certainly from the same anime. A takoyaki stand and some other stand.

And all the silly sightless people came and looked...and called it junk.

I don't recall the auction description having an anime title in it. I don't think the seller knew where it was from.

Did you get your backgrounds around the same time that was on Yahoo Japan? Did they come from the same source?

I'll try to let you know if I ever find out. It seems more like something that you'd recognize if you had seen the backgrounds first rather than it happening the other way around. :(

I actually picked up the backgrounds around 2002 or so while I was in Japan, from one of the shops in Tokyo. It wasn't in Nakano or Akiba - I think it was from Commit. They were in a huge stack of backgrounds, and the shop had no idea what any of them were from.

I got mine July 27, 2003, but I wasn't writing down seller's names back then so I don't know who they were. :(

Hopefully we'll be able to figure it out someday. Artwork needs a name to go with it! :)
