*singing* Someone is addicted!

Be quiet, no I'm not! I'm just melodramatic! *mutters to self* Among other things...

Anyway, I finally noticed the writing next to Yuusuke's head. (it was scanned on a white background so not immediately visible) And it finally clicked-- this came from episode 22, Just Stretch Your Hand and... See?, from the scene where Noelle's halo is assaulting the class! Since this comes rather late in the series we have-- SPOILER WARNING-- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

With Noelle's angel-dom rapidly nearing, her halo begins to glow, spin, and finally react...umm... rather violently, shall we say, to outside influence. During one of the classes Noelle's halo is making so much noise that everyone has to use signs to communicate with each other! Eventually Muse suggests taking the halo off and tries to remove it by dumping an empty trashcan on Noelle's head. (?-- Umm, yeah, that would really work. ) So Noelle's halo goes blasting through the can and proceeds to zing arouns the room cutting the student's desks in quarters (not even halves!) and creating various other havoc.

My cel comes from the point where the teacher has just aquiesced to trying to remove Noelle's halo. Yuusuke protests (with alot of writing on the blackboard! ) but Muse goes ahead anyway and Yuusuke exclaims "Hey!" or rather "Oi!" right before the inevitable happens.

And let us never speak of this incident again. *sweatdrop*

Noelle's halo go vroom, vroom, vroom!

I was actually looking for Yuusuke a few sequences later when he's going "Ooh!" in front of the chalkboard-- but eh, I'm not going to be idiotically picky and this is really nice too. (Especially since all the cels of the teacher & Yuusuke standing in front of the writing on the chalkboard are A-1 End cels!) I'm still looking for that other Yuusuke cel though (especially since this is such an amusing scene!) which is featured on my Want List. I'm especially glad that I got this cel (for only $12 too!) because it came with the teacher's writing when she is going "Ooh!". (For a moment I thought it might be a layer from the cel I was looking for but it's on the wrong side to be from Yuusuke.) Here we have Yuusuke dashingly modeling the "Ooh!" layer for us.

Eh heh... *puts hand behind head and sweatdrops further*

And here we have the original screengrab of the teacher going "Ooh!". If anyone has the matching layer please LMK!

As I mentioned, this cel is A-1 End (I love A-1 Ends! ) The two chalkboard writing cels are only marked with their scene-numbers with no layer numbers apparent. I'm rather surprised that the writing was on a separate layer at all since the scenes were static in the episode. Perhaps it is due to the odd flaking technique that was used to create the appearance of the chalk writing on the layers.

And, aww, doesn't he look so upset? And isn't Ruka's design for "the protector" interesting? Ruka always has such interesting designs...

*runs through the room yelling "MIIIIKAAAEL!"*

Weirdo...

Don't call our neighbors such things!

*An even larger sweatdrop appears on his head as he watches Papa & Gabriel go rolling across the floor yet again*

Hael-san misplaced Kael-san!

Uh, yeah. Now let's all do the Let's Find Mikael dance! Woo hoo! *steps out of the way of Papa & Gabriel as a conga line starts headed by none other then Sara*

*conga-ing across the stage* Find Kael-sama! Find Kael-sama!
