Thanks go to AnimeGame for this lovely group shot. The gorgeous pan
from the last episode; right after they put the Powerstones back in their places,
and everyone stops to gaze up at them for one last time.
This marks my first...ever...cel...of...Jack!!! YAY! Of course, he's tiny and in the back. *sigh* But it was my first ever, and it's a very lovely cel. So...for the heck of it, the guide to characters: Front row, left to right - Rouge, Ryouma (looking for cels of him,) Fokker, Ayame, Pride (Fokker's papa, and I would love cels of him!) In the back, left to right - Gunrock, Jack (JAAAACK! Where are all of your cels?!) Wangtang, and Garuda. I love that cute little bandaged-up boy. Poor little Jack. |

Rouge, the firey fortune-teller, in her powered-up form, right about to chase down
Octo & Pus. I'd been looking
around for Powerstone cels for years now when I got these first few, with very
little luck... It wasn't until much later that I managed to find them with
any frequency, and even now they don't pop up often, or at many dealers' sites.
My roommates introduced me to the delight of the game, via Powerstone 2. I always play as Jack, because I love him to bits. Rachel usually played Rouge, so this cel was purchased in her honour. |

Wangtang, from the bank "Power Change" sequence. He's such a silly, fun lad, and a
dead ringer so many anime stereotypes. I think that was rather the intent,
though. I don't play as him very often in PS2; Richard plays as him or Ryouma fairly often, though. But I'm not purchasing anything in his honour because he always uses me as a projectile weapon or a shield on 2-player. |

Huge thanks to Miki for a li'l wish come true. Oh, at last, Kikunojo!
After Jack, Kikunojo's my second favourite PS character; sadly, he is anime
only. ...Yes, "he." This is Ayame's older brother, who just happens to spend most of his time dressed like this. I am desperately seeking any more cels of Kikunojo, either in this outfit, in his ninja costume, or (dare I even hope?) shirtless. *puppy-dog eyes* Help me? |

Let's all hold back on the "family jewels" jokes, shall we? Here's Fokker, hero-extrodinaire, with his signature Powerstone. It took me a while to locate more Powerstone cels, but I've finally had some luck. |

Awwww.. Isn't he just so cute? Young Fokker, in his horrible little orange pants. I love that he was even wearing those goggles back in his youth. Here Fokker remembers himself chasing after his father's departing plane, in his youth. Pride's such a terrible father. I love Pride. |

Lots of alley-way hijinks in this series. Err...that is to say, here's Rouge
in what's left of her opera gown after Jack got to it. She's chased Jack
to a dark alley, where he has...disappeared? Oh, dear little Jack. He's just so misunderstood. I love Jack. |

I can't remember, right now, exactly where this comes in the series. Odd. My
memory's just terrible. Anyway, as one can tell, Fokker's just swimmin' along shirtless through some murky waters. |
![]() (FO) | Cassie, Fokker's would-be fiancee, getting roughed up by one of the Octopus gang. They're the generic cannon-fodder villains, and they all look exactly the same. This comes in near the end of Cassie's big episode; filler though it was, I particularly enjoyed her episode. Of course, it had lots of ninja in drag. |
![]() (FO) | Cassie, from her return later in the series. She just looks like a maid in this outfit, but she's still as cute as can be. Here she's whipping out her weapon of choice to defend herself...the weapon of choice being a loaf of French bread. Well, she's a sweet girl and she's trying so I guess we must at least give her some credit. |
