What series would you collect from if available

Post by JWR »

I was contacted by a friend in Japan who was asked by a dealer there who is looking to possible expand their footprint on YJ. They wanted to know what series are popular in this community that if they could locate artwork would have a good chance of being sold.

Not saying they can get studios to release artwork from shows just to them, What shows if artwork could be found would you be willing to spend your hard earned $$$$ on?

I'll always be interested in any artwork from Kino no Tabi (Kino's Journey). I have checked everyday on YJ for a year and have never seen any. :( If any sketches were to suddenly appear on YJ, there is a very good chance that I would buy them.

Other series that I would be willing to bid/and or purchase from:

.Noir

.Serial Experiments Lain

To the question: I'm sure original art from these series would sell briskly here (and unfortunately in Japan too):

Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Strike Witches
Attack on Titan
Anohana [Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai]
Rozen Maiden Rewind
Inuyasha: The Final Act

Somewhat older series that I wish were more available:

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle
xxxHolic
Powerpuff Girls Z (roughs were available briefly but not since)
Sasami: Mahou Shoujo Club
Ouran High School Host Club
Niea_7
Haibane Renmei [but I heard all of this was destroyed for copyright reasons]
Mushishi
Angelic Layer
Gegege no Kitaro (2007-09 CGI version)

Can't guarantee that I have the $$$ to buy all of this if it suddenly became available :bawl (Sensei checks the going daily rates of nearby poorhouses and understands why all their residents are poor). But it would be nice to have a wider variety of temptations.

I think the fan favorites for cel/sketch collectors would be:
Sailor Moon, Inuyasha, Card Captor Sakura, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, Cowboy Bebop, Rurouni Kenshin, Trigun, Slayers, Fushigi Yuugi, Naruto, Bleach, Evangelion, and Utena.

However, I want and can’t find (or rarely see and haven’t been able to snag):
BAOH (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0moGWVGhgM),
Demon of Steel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SuSdlvqDNk),
Gantz (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw3q8QY-fYY) ,
Hyouge Mono (http://www.v2-studios.se/AFX/Videos/hyo ... g-karaoke/),
Kaiba (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB3gc6Uc7y0),
Kimera (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vevMqjTEttE),
Kurozuka (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tP1OODyPmY),
Lupin the Third a Woman Called Fujiko Mine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqzAlFFJ-0g),
Mononoke (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AMQ8KP9YOM),
Neo-Tokyo: Running Man (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV0hl1njPt4),
Night On The Galactic Railroad (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y6tkOyR4T0),
Redline (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9fhQVMzlC0),
Shigurui (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL033M5y6T4),
Space Dandy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd4Qm5kQRTM)
Terraformars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtpQOUR9Owc)
Un-Go (http://vimeo.com/31288461) ,
Yami No Shihokan: Judge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2bN2N1w4L0),
and
Zetman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vF7bbCInpMw)

Also, I’d like to find mecha from Southern Cross (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlYlbq_VbBk): the suits, the tanks, the bioroids, etc.

Like Sensei, I don’t know if I’d have the green. But, it’s always great to see awesome stuff.

It goes without saying for me...

Rurouni Kenshin (especially the new OVA and even game footage)
Peace Maker Kurogane
Hakuouki (especially the 2nd season and movies)
Bakumatsu Irohanihoheto (Intrigue of the Bakumatsu)
PAPUWA
Shinsengumi Farce
Bakumatsu ROCK
Hijikata Shiro no Kiseki
Kidou Shinsengumi Moeyo Ken
Any Shinsengumi related artwork, cels, sketches etc. from other shows like Ouran, Ranma, Shura no Toki, Gintama, Francesca, Ryo, Mask of Zeguy, Rakugo Tennyo Oyui, etc.

Non shinsengumi related (looking for cels unless they are sketch form only)
Hanada Shounen Shi
Tosshou Daimos
Choudenji Machine Voltes V
You're under Arrest

Fairy Tail.

And if they could manage to get some One Piece they'd make a killing. :)

While I'm sure it's a very slim possibility, I'd love to buy some shikishi sketches from some of the animators at the studio. While character designers are nice, even some artwork done by key animators would be fine.

Other than the titles that have already been mentioned, I'd love to buy some Psycho Pass artwork, especially some nice Kogami shots.

Well I'm not sure what other people are collection these days. For me personally I'm always on the look out for good Yugioh! cels and sketches (especially duel monsters), Dragonball Z and Tekkaman Blade (of characters in armour).

No I am fine, I gave them a link to this tread so they can check out what everyone comes up with.
So keep them coming.

It'd be really great if some Mirai Nikki sketches would suddenly pop up on the market where I can find.
