Gweehee.. This one's an Opening Credits cel from the OAVs. ^_^
She's the Marteau, pilot of the very cooly named Ryuu Valkyrie, Dark Rose. The name of her Ryuu alone is enough for her to earn an A in my book, and the fact that she's a butt-kicking swordswoman gives her a big A+. And that's even taking into consideration how darned pink her hair is.. She's got nifty ears, though, and some sort of 3rd eye dealiebobber.. O.o;; |
![]() | Uwheee.. It's an adorable little shot of Zephyr with nice air-brushed effects; that would be nice enough to appeal to me. But, look closer, there's Adeu on his shoulder! Why on his shoulder, and not in the cockpit, you may wonder? After all, Adeu rides in Zephyr, not on him. Except for the opening credits, that is. And that's exactly where this one comes from, the first TV opening. |

Here's Zephyr in his powered-up Ryuu Paladin form! Isn't he
such a pretty li'l robot? It's just so wacky how the characters use these things.. They're such cute, squatty, chibi-robots. I'd say this is in the middle of a fight. I love the bright green fire. It's so pretty. ^_^ Yeah, it's my crazy love of airbrushing, again.. Beyond that, these cels come from the 2nd TV op! |

Hello, Zephyr! Among the many Ryuu Knight cels I've purchased as of late, I seem to have ended up with quite a few from this particular sequence of the opening credits, to go along with the above two that I've had for some time now. Odd how things turn out, isn't it? |

Just a bit later in the sequence, Zephyr engages the enemy! ^-^ I just love those claws! |

This one's just two frames later than the above cel. I probably could've put all of these into an animated .gif file, to take up less space, but.. I'm just too lazy. ^_^;; I really hate that animated .gif maker, no matter how simple it seems.. (I can never get the cels cropped right so that they overlie each other properly, even using Adobe to test it out. ;.;) Besides, it's easier to view them each this way, when they're not moving. ^_^ |
![]() | The very next frame. ^_^;; Aiya. It's quite keen to have these. The funny thing is, I didn't get them all from the same seller. ^-^;; I suppose that perhaps the different sellers all got them from one common source? Otherwise, it'd be awfully unusual for so many Op cels from the same sequence to appear within a month.. |
![]() | After a brief strugge, Adeu knocks the Jaryuuzoku back in order to get in a good hit. |

Very nicely detailed cel of Zephyr very up-close and personal. For a robot, he's really got lovely eyes, doesn't he? ^_^ I watched this cel whiz past so many times before I finally caught it in the opening credits. It flashes past right as Zephyr enters the scene, just before he fights with the Jaryuuzoku. |
