Description

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death and Rebirth Rei Production Cel (Gainax, 1997). "Why are you crying? I'm sorry, I don't know how I should act at times like this." "Smiling would be a good start." Seen at the 35:18 mark of the Neon Genesis Evangelion recap film Death and Rebirth, presented is an astounding hand-painted original production cel featuring Rei Ayanami from the iconic "smile" scene. This rare cel captures a defining image of Rei, one of the most recognizable character moments for any fan of the lauded franchise. In addition, this pivotal scene was famously re-animated for the film, given a more polished look compared to the original scene in the series. This is one of the best original production cels you can find of Rei Ayanami, a must-have for any collector of original Evangelion artwork. A stunning image, Rei measures a large and centered 8.25" x 7.75" on the 12 field cel, and the piece bears the frame number B19 in the upper right corner. This image is often reproduced by fans and the studio alike, but this is the definitive original production cel from the famous scene! The cel shows minor studio handling and edge wear, and the condition is Very Good.
