WTB: Paranoia Agent, Tokyo Grandfathers and Shura no Toki

kizu · Post by **kizu** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 12:45 am

Well so much for being good... But I hate not having a piece of these anime. I've only seen a storyboard for Shura no Toki and passed on it because I thought there were going to be sketches... Bad idea...

Anyway, I really really want Paranoia Agent and Tokyo Grandfathers. I love the story telling and it's most probably because of Satoshi Kon. I'd collect the cels of Memories, Perfect Blue, even Millenium actress but although they're great movies, I still like Paranoia and Tokyo Grandfathers the most.

Anyway, thanks all for your help. Give me a hollar if you find or have them.

Ive only seen 1 sketch auction for Tokyo Godfathers and that was on Mandarake years ago.

It sold for about $350 for a huge lot of 100-150ish sketches (douga, genga, layouts)
I lost the bid on it and still kick myself repeatedly for it because since then I've yet to see another auction pop up for anything
from that movie.

As for Paranoia Agent, Ive yet to see anything for it.
Though I haven't searched for it specifically.
Anywho good luck on your searches!

Yeah, I'd love to find a decent sketch of that nice cop guy in Paranoia Agent. I'm crap for names.

Good luck! I hope you find some goodies to share with us!

I've never seen anything from Paranoia Agent either. I've looked, but nothing.

I'd love to know why... is the stuff released? Was it destroyed? Where could it beeeeeee......

When hunting for another Satoshi Kon project *grins*, the only Paranoia Agent I was able to find was a set of settei, and they went on Yahoo last fall.

Oh! Well that's promising at least. I was beginning to wonder if it was even out there at all.

Shampoo – That sounds like a great lot. At least you bid on it! Not like me who didn’t even try. LOL.

Aernath – I’m not sure which cop you mean but if the younger one, his name Mitsuhiro Maniwa or if the older cop (the one I’m looking for), his name is Keiichi Ikari. Definitely the character I will never pass up is Ikari’s wife though. 

WC – Ouch… I mean you guys have been searching longer and if you’ve not seen one… *sigh* Me too I’m just curious as to why there’s nothing. But a Japanese friend of mine seems to think there are sketches although very very rare. We’ll see what he comes up with.

Safetygirl - Hmmm... You keeping secrets from me there.

Wasn't it what's yours is mine and what's mine is mine?

LOL! I think I liked him best in his super hero role! Funny thing is I thought he was the most -sane-, ummm turns out not.

PA is such a great anime!
