The rilezu cels I have received from La Corda d'Oro Primo Passo have included what appears to be the original dougas. Some include both layers if the mouth was separate. One which is labeled A1end has the character names and color numbers written in red on the back of the douga.
I ordered one rilezu from Shounen Onmyouji knowing it was a sequence mate (the mouth is open). It has a cut number on it instead so I am assuming the person with the closed mouth cel (who ordered first) has the original, not sure.
With the one Kyo Kara Maohl rilezu I have, the douga is obviously a copy.
Which Anime Relizu's come with Actual Production Sketches?

Agreed with the LCO - I have one cel that has about 8 layers...and all 8 layers of douga. Now...they may all be copies, but they have some wear as well as the writing that AO previously mentioned.

So Jenn, what about your SO rilezu cels...since you have the closed mouth Guren that I mentioned? Is it the original douga or a clean-up version?

If I post pictures of my Douga's do you think you can tell me if it's a clean up or original?
Thanks!

Okay AO. Mine is clean-up too. It has all layers merged and just has the cut number. That's the big give-away for this rilezu.
I also am looking at my 7-layer LCO rilezu:

I'm 99% positive that these are original production douga. My biggest reason? The Kahoko Hino layer is actually drawn to be the same size character as the others. It looks as though her size was manipulated after scanning and layering with the other characters during production. The actual Rilezu is 2 layers - one with Kahoko Hino, the other with the remaining 6 characters. It's pretty wild!
Edit: I forgot to add that all of the sketches for the LCO rilezu above are oversized - and much bigger than the rilezu itself. They were folded to fit into the studio envelope and my parcel when it was sent.
