Anime cel print
The cel print, derived from Space Battleship Yamato (late 1970s), captures the final moment between Susumu Kodai and Yuki Mori—an image steeped in loss and devotion. The stillness of this scene, suspended between duty and tenderness, reflects the emotional core of the series: love enduring even as worlds fall apart. Printed with layered pigment transfers, the cel retains its luminous tones and clarity, preserving the quiet gravity of that farewell with remarkable depth and warmth.

Medium: Studio cel print on acetate, printed background of the original scene on paper

Obi
The reverse side of a *Nishijin-woven obi* forms a wave-like ground of red, white, and gold threads—its motion echoing Yamato’s sea-born origins and the pulse of human spirit. The irregular rhythm of the weave parallels the emotional turbulence within the scene, where strength and sorrow coexist. The sheen of silk softens the drama, transforming cinematic grief into a meditative surface of light and fiber.
