AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From: Ranma 1/2

This piece is an authentic original one-of-a-kind Japanese animation artwork, consisting of an original genga (key frame), hand-drawn by studio artists at Studio Deen and used directly in the production of the Ranma 1/2 anime series.

A Certificate of Authenticity will be included with your purchase.

This piece is an Animation Director’s correction drawing that features Kodachi Kuno, the elegant yet unhinged “Black Rose” martial artist known for her dramatic flair and competitive spirit. The frame captures Kodachi mid-motion in a dynamic running pose, her posture and expression conveying both grace and intensity, perfectly reflecting her distinctive personality within the series.

Please note that this is a vintage production item. Despite careful storage, age-appropriate wear, minor imperfections, or signs of use in the animation process may be present. Buyers are encouraged to examine all images carefully prior to purchase.

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.
