He does. He buys leather boink-me gloves.

I've seen 5 times 20 seconds of the Reload series this weekend and I couldn't stop laughing. I'm referring of course to the little "epilogue extras" at the end of each show, those "urasai"-thingies.

Alright, I've got a question for you Saiyuki expert girls..

I just got the matching sketch of the Goyjo (reload) drawing I did a while back. That was fun! because I made it from the screencap and a few days later it popped up on YJ.

So, with new interest I started looking for Saiyuki douga and genga.

Now here's my question:

Why? why are they so expensive?!!

I mean, this is a long show right? lots of different series, lots of episodes, lots and lots of scribbles, doodles, roughs, douga and genga..
So it's not as if they are rare right?

please enlighten me?

I wish I knew! Gensomaden Saiyuki (first series) is not all that expensive. And, really, Reload/Gunlock is not expensive compared to some shows, like FMA or even Naruto. At least, that is what I have been told.

But, compared to GS, Reload/Gunlock are really expensive. And, I've found the sets are often not as large. It seems like, for some cuts/scenes, the studio has split them up into douga sets and genga sets, as opposed to GS, where you could get a whole cut that had douga and genga in it. I could be wrong about this ... it is just my "unschooled" observation based on what I have been buying.

Maybe Reload/Gunlock are more in demand because they are newer ...? To me, the artwork for the second series is a bit more sexy and edgy, so perhaps the character design changes have caused the artwork to be more in demand. I'm really not sure.

But ... if you figure it out, let me know! As a rabid Saiyuki fangal, I would like to know the answer to this mystery! :hitting:

what tex-chan said. truthfully gs and reload gunlock arent that expensive unless your buying op/ed shots or you go to anime game. for some reason they seem a bit high there. other then that there pretty much priced quite nice. yeah, the boys although sexy in gs, their much sexier in reload/gunlock.

Well..I'm visiting Museum, and the shots that I like of them usually start at 10000 yen

which I think is not really a nice price for just a douga...

Some of the OP douga are even priced higher than OP cels I've seen from other shows.

(Stephen won't like me for saying this..I'm sure

)
