What does this mean!? Gahhhh!

Post by MidniteKitten »

This person has a bunch of stuff up that I'm particularly interested in, yet I can't see the photos or translate it using rinkya because it is "adult"

Don't worry, should be safe for work as it's just a blank image and some japanese writing.

How do I know these interest me? Because this much stuff hasn't been available in a while and I'd sure as hell at least be able to see it! So if anyone can please tell me what it means, or how to bypass it so I can be in "the know" I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!

I would just check back later and see if they have added the image.

I have seen quite a few YJ auctions in which the "reserve" auction spots then (normally quite a few so the all close around the same time) then as the auction goes on the later fill in the info as well as add the images.

I'd just copy and paste the text into Google Translate. Google says this for the top:

Cel L A-KITE (Kite) å…¶No Yasuomi Umetsu 1

My software says this:

CelLA-KITE(Kite) it NoYasuomiUmetsu1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Google Translate says this for the bottom text:

No international shipping. (Seller will not ship internationally.)

9 A and B-movie in the background with a color copy of the cell

Please note there may be shooting raw.
Cel has a shiny vinyl and digital cameras have no effect.

Notes â–¼ â–¼ toward winning bidder

I have to email me after the first bid, so the "Yahoo! Auction" from
[Bid] mail notification
Thank you in touch with you after we have read and noted the matter.
[Shipping]
"Courier (Sagawa) advance payment" is only.
[Remittance]
Will support only bank transfer.

If you bid, please take a look at the self-introduction column.

It's still not a whole lot different even after all these years. :shrug

With the help of OCN, I get this for the critical lines:

Lセル画 A-KITE(カイト)梅津泰
Large cell picture A-KITE (kite) Yasuomi Umezu


Yasuomi Umezu was the director of this series. He's mentioned so people doing a search for his name will find this auction.

Sensei's right. That's what the only lines related to the cel itself say.

What I find amusing is that they have a line saying "There may be reflections from the vinyl and my digital camera but there are no marks on the cel"... when they don't have a picture.

As was said earlier, hopefully this person will put up a picture. Otherwise... well, would you bid on a cel you haven't seen? :-)

I've seen people bidding on multiple artwork auctions days before the auction ends and the auctions never had pictures uploaded. The auctions end and they still don't have photos.

Basically they were bidding on mystery grab bags. :sweatdrop

Can you see an image now? It's a cel of the chick with the bandaids on her face (Sawa?) doing the dirty with a guy with long gray hair. I'm guessing that the copied A layer is the bed that they're on. Definitely NSFW now.


Seems odd that you can't see it, since I've never know this seller to put up auctions without images before.

We've seen it before. :wink: This seller often omits images in the adult section of Y!J. Not completely sure why that is. :?
