Strangest Wish List item?

Post by BeautifulAlone »

Kind of a follow up from my previous "Dream cels" post. Does anyone else have a Wish List item that you Really want, but you're not sure why?

This is mine:

I don't know why, but I love it! It really hits a chord with me. The anger in Ken's face, being illuminated by flames with the religious message scrolled beside him in German. However, I only want it in full, with the gritty "Hail God" graffiti background! Otherwise it's not a good profile shot for Ken as his features (nose) are way to sharp.

'Ah, I'm not lonely...'"

I'll respond, though I'd have to alter the question a bit. I know exactly why I wanted this cel so much, though I'd imagine that there is only one other person in North America who would understand. (I helped her get a sequencemate, and afterwards her husband told me that he had never seen her so excited as when she heard that the auction was won.)

That's an eyecatch cel from Tonde Buurin, a series that remains stubbornly unavailable in this country, but which has quite a cult following in the Asian arc and now in Latin America. There aren't many cels out there for the eyecatch sequence: the one I helped Vapalla get, another that she picked up soon after, and, now -- coming soon in my next update --this one.
