AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From: Neon Genesis Evangelion

Official printed reproduction cel from Neon Genesis Evangelion, issued under license by GAINAX / Project Eva and distributed by Sega Enterprises as part of the “Evangelion Cell Club” (セル倶楽部) series.

This is an officially licensed merchandise item classified as an 印刷セル (printed cel), meaning it is a professionally printed reproduction rather than a hand-painted production cel used in animation. The item was distributed in Japan for a limited period as an arcade prize, with multiple designs produced and distributed randomly as part of the Cell Club series.

Original distribution was handled by Sega Enterprises, and printed copyright text is present on the item reading:
GAINAX / Project Eva / TV Tokyo / NAS, confirming its authenticity as an official licensed product.

Now discontinued, this printed cel is a highly collectible item for fans of Neon Genesis Evangelion, particularly sought after as part of Sega’s original Evangelion arcade merchandise line.

This artwork is offered unframed by default.
If the final bid exceeds €250, we’ll happily include a frame with UV-protective acrylic panel at no additional cost.

If the winning bid is below €250, framing is still available upon request for an additional fee, regardless of the final amount.

Size (image only): 21.0 × 29.7 cm
Size (including frame): 34.5 × 25.7 × 1.5cm

Condition: Near Mint (Two very small scrapes in the back of the piece, everything else is in perfect condition.)

Shipping:
If without frame, your item will be shipped protected in a hard clear case to avoid any bending.
Tracking included. Optional insurance available at additional cost.

Seller's Story

Japanime Art Gallery is a Japan-based art gallery specializing in authentic anime and manga production art and historically significant collectibles. We primarily curate original animation cels, original drawings, and production materials created during the golden era of hand-drawn Japanese animation, from the 1970s to the 1990s. In addition, we carefully select rare posters, official reproduction artworks, reproduction manuscripts, and related materials that represent the history and cultural context of anime and manga. All works offered by Japanime Art Gallery are selected based on our independent curatorial standards, with a strong emphasis on authenticity, historical background, cultural significance, and preservation condition. Even when offering reproduction works, we only handle officially produced, exhibition-related, or limited-distribution items that hold genuine collectable value. Our mission is not simply to sell artworks, but to elevate anime and manga art as a recognized and respected category within the global art market, and to preserve and pass on its cultural value to future generations. We see ourselves as long-term custodians of anime and manga art, responsible for preserving, contextualizing, and introducing these works to the world as cultural and artistic assets.
