(NFS)	Whoo! I fell in love with this one when I first saw it. The whole urinal episode was really screwy to begin with, but as soon as Shiro got into it, it just got really funny. ^_^ His ideas were genuinely screwed up.. This is one such. This shot flashed up for just a moment, as Shiro thought about fighting Jubei while she had the urinal on her head, for 'tactical advantage' through psyche-out. ^_^;; Poor Shiro.
	Blah. I absolutely love this shot. I'm pretty certain this is when Jubei learns to overcome her depth-perception issues, after a lengthy late-night talk.. As such, the closed eyes are just an integral part of the scene.. There's a sort of quiet sadness in her expression, along with a sort of resignation.. Blah. I don't know. It's just beautiful. While I'm not usually all that picky about the whole "centered cel" thing, I really like the layout of this shot; very balanced without looking too symmetrical.
	Cute, li'l-bitty image of Jiyu and her bike. I think this one comes in right after Jiyu refuses Shiro's challenge, and gets ready to head back out with the New Student Lovelies. It's a cute shot, though.. And yes, once again, it was free. And FREE = GOOD! I like things what are free. Oh, yes.
	Just a cute little cel of Jiyu and her pop, Sai. I just adored Sai in his pink suit (What a pimp! ^_^;;) and it was so cute when she picked him up to carry him home. I don't really have many cels of Jiyu, but she's awfully cute. (punch-punch-punch-punch [...no, I don't expect almost anyone to get that joke..])
	Look, it's Jubei! No, not that Jubei, the other Jubei. The original Jubei. How many times can I type Jubei in this description? Who knows!? ...Maybe Jubei knows! I'd been eyeing the cels from this scene on Animanga for the longest time, and eventually caved when the time came that I could get it on sale, and buy a bunch of cels of Brad (Psychic Force) at the same time. I can't pass up such a thing. I doubt even Jubei could. Jubei, Jubei, Jubei! Hah! Jubei! Eleven. Eleven times I type Jubei.. ...Err, twelve.
	Coolest. Damned. Shot. Awesomeness. I've been coveting the Jubei-chan bank shots for ages now; never really thought I'd manage to get my hands on one, though. Once agian, I owe many thanks to Nick for his incredible sale prices. Otherwise, I doubt I'd have ever snagged a beauty like this. Beautiful, beautiful shot. I love everything about it.
	Cute little shot of Jiyu on her bike, with...the urinal mask! I love that wacky thing. Such a poor, put-upon young lady. Jiyu's a cutie-head, she is.
	Neato cel of Jiyu as Jubei; another one of Shiro's imaginings. I've long wanted to get a cel from this sequence; Nick had a few of them available to begin with, and slowly all but one of them drifted away. I'd rather given up hopes that I'd manage to acquire one until his lovely sale came along, and I was finally able to afford this puppy. Lovely shot, and I love the novelty of Jiyu in the Jubei costume, sans patch.
	It's been ages since I've watched, but I'm pretty certain this shot comes from the fist episode, right after Jiyu finds herself "patched." Aside from the scene, I love this cel for the look of dismay on Jiyu's face, and the pose as she's frozen in a moment of shock. Rather the opposite of the above cel -- it's Jiyu in her normal outfit, but with the patch on.
