And my second birthday gift to myself, this awesome genga (key frame) of Rei at her table, from episode 54.Ā  I thought it was really interesting, and since it was from the same seller as the Jupiter/Nehellenia cel, I tossed it into my cart.

This drawing is in the episode twice; once when Rei is recounting her musical awesomeness to the other girls, and again with a different color palette when the episodeā€™s Cardian destroys her sheet music in battle.

The genga came with an additional sheet, which is at the bottom of this photoset.Ā  Itā€™s a photocopy, and has a bunch of notes and scribbles on it.Ā  Not sure what this would have been used for (perhaps notes on changes between the first and second appearance?) but kinda neat to get as a bonus with the genga!

NEW CEL!Ā  I had some birthday money to spend, so I bought this lil darlin on eBay. Iā€™ve been eyeing it for a couple months, and Iā€™m equally glad and surprised that no one else bought it yet. :D

The cel is stuck to the douga, so no real option to create my own background for it when I get it framed. BUT! Some enterprising soul turned the douga over before it got stuck to the cel, so the drawing itself is safe and sound on the back. :D

Iā€™m SO GLAD I got to snap this up.Ā  This is an amazing moment from this episode (171) and it has both my favorite inner senshi and my favorite villain.
