Windaria (dowa meita senshi Windaria)

Keisuke Fujikawa

Released: 1986

The first time I saw this movie I was 15 and it basically was my first taste at an anime made for a more older audience. I remember being very impressed with it, especially Jill & Ahnas' infamous scene on the bridge, which was quite shocking for me at the time. Happy Disney movies don't quite prepare you for life's hard lessons like anime can. 

I have been collecting cels from this movie ever since 2003 and I have only accumulated a handful of them. Needless to say they are pretty rare finds. Because of the quality of the animation the cels are often in incredible condition with little to no linefading. Considering they are over 30 years old, that's quite amazing.

My favourite?
