The End of Evangelion Asuka and Shinji Production Cel (Gainax, 1997)....

Description

The End of Evangelion Asuka and Shinji Production Cel (Gainax, 1997). "Kimochi warui." Interpreted in English as "I feel sick" or "disgusting" (a point of frequent speculation by many fans), Asuka utters the final lines in the mind-bending conclusion to Neon Genesis Evangelion. A haunting image that has sparked long-debated interpretations, this is an astonishing hand-painted original production cel from the final moments of Hideaki Anno's monumental and controversial The End of Evangelion. The Evangelion franchise needs very little introduction, widely responsible for breathing new life into the anime industry in the 1990s with its subversions of the mecha genre, thought-provoking themes, rich characterizations, and evocative imagery. This rare cel from the groundbreaking film can be seen at the 1:25:28 mark, capturing one of the most widely discussed scenes in anime history. The image nearly fills the 13.75" x 9" cel, and the piece bears the number A11 in the upper right corner. Overall minor handling and edge wear, and the condition overall is Very Good.
