Hey, Answerman! The Dying Breeds
Hello everyone and Happy Early Memorial Day Weekend! Enjoy your day off from the crushing boredom of schoolwork and the deadening ennui of your lousy full-time job! Also: get pissed that the government doesn't deliver mail for an entire 2-day period, making your next Netflix Blu-Ray arrival days later than it otherwise would have been!
And hey, what's this about questions? I think I have some questions.
Hey Answerman!
This is hardly a topical question, but... I'm curious about getting into collecting actual anime animation art. Cels, background art, rough pencil drawings, that sort of thing. I feel like I need to get into collecting it soon if I'm ever going to, considering they don't make shows on cels anymore.
My question is... where do I start? How do I make sure I'm not being ripped off? How do I know how much a cel or a piece of anime production art is worth?
Well now! Luckily for you, Mike Toole's already got you covered.
Personally, I've always been a secret, closeted, would-be cel collector - out of all the anime trinkets and doo-dads that people collect, like toys, DVDs, wallscrolls and soundtracks... actual animation artwork is the one I'd personally prefer. If I had the time and the money and the space for it, at least. What's truly cool about animation cels is that you can literally see some of the artists' work, right there in your face. And considering that cels obviously pre-dated digital technologies, there were a lot of really cool things that anime directors did with their cels to either achieve a certain look or cut a few corners - it's not uncommon to find cels with multiple layers, or cels with things that you would've never noticed from the finished product, like airbrushing and other paint-related tricks.
So I guess just to summarize what Mike Toole said in his column a few months back, it's actually quite the opportune moment to grab some really cool animation cels on the cheap. The market sort of burst some years back when dangerously obsessive collectors (see the creepy, almost Borat ? Not so much), or were random, out-of-sequence bits of animation of side characters with their eyes closed and their hands in front of their faces. Hardly the sorts of poses that hardcore cel collectors want - they want their favorite character from their favorite show, eyes wide open, staring at them on their wall at all times, telling them how much they love them and will never leave them.

I mean, unfortunately, there's nothing like, say, Sotheby's for anime artwork that definitively determines that actual "value" of any one piece of anime artwork. The "value" of these cels and douga sketches are, as with anything else, worth exactly

Trivia: Fishman Island is said to be an underwater paradise. Because it is underwater, the only way for a conventional ship to get there is to be coated with a special resin found in the Sabaody Archipelago. Fishman Karate can also be learned here, more specifically in the Fishman Dojo, as revealed by Oda, in an SBS question and then stated by Hatchan. This dojo is the pride of Fishman Island.
It was straw hat who challenge him, and what up. With this stupid talk about level n shit? Usually in the pass, straw. Hat would think twice to fight a friend, but look there was no hesistation, no fear in his mind…he made up his mind and he gonna make it happen…
For those who think straw hat doesn’t have the killer insting like all the D. Yal so dumb, why I mean why would everyone who been with Roger or fight him or really knew him see something in luffy?
Na, I doubt its Nami this time, its always her that can stop Luffy but only when Luffy isn’t that serious and wants to do something stupid.
This time Luffy’s face is REALLY serious…and Luffy wants to save his Nakama.
but im pretty sure that there won’t be a fight…maybe like a page of fight then the next page someone stops them.

YOU really thought the fight between Zoro & Luffy at whiskey peak was a serious one? I thought of it like it was funny, it was just showing us how Luffy is so stupid…not listening to what Zoro had to say first and just attacking…and Luffy attacked Zoro with a fat ass stomach…then he turn back normal, but that fight wasn’t a serious one at all!
I have two theories about Traflgar Law… I believe that when he performed surgery on Luffy after the battle of Marinfold, that he may have altered his body in a way to give himself and advantage in battle if they ever do meet up in the new world.
The second theory is that the surgery he performed may possible give Luffy the ability to eat two Devil Fruits like black beard (even thought I see this one as very unlikely, as Oda is building Blackbeard up as the ultimate challenge for Luffy before possible becoming pirate King and fighting a world war with the world government and the 5 elders)
What do you guys think?
I do not believe in the theory of Dark Dark fruit is able to absorb other fruits’ ability, because if he can, he would have lot more abilities. Like Magellan’s poison ability after he got beat up in Impel Down by BB, I bet he would want that if he could have it.
