Beasts & Bipeds of Flame Cels

Series: Flame of Recca

OF COURSE I have more to scan. Sheesh. What mattered beyond scanning Kurenai? ;) (Well! That assessment changed the moment I got a naked Rui! Not to mention the next assessment. Human ryu are entirely another matter, especially naked human Rui ryu!) When I originally titled this section, before blowing off working on the site yet again, I was having a distracted moment of thinking "both Kurenai and Jisho are flame bipeds...". Er, well, not in the anime. Anyone have a Flame Jisho hanken? ;)

SPOILERS!!! Most of these cels are from the second to last episode!

Episode #: 39: Mikagami's Death Battle!! Heedless Hyomon Ken!!
Stats: 1 layer, A10
Sketches: 1 partial, unstuck
Comments: Naked Rui! She's always been on my wishlist. What I really really really want is the pan cel immediately after this sequence, but I'm happy to have this as well. When Recca is challenging the ryu to reclaim them in the little deserty world, Rui demonstrates by evaporating her clothing that one of the main tricks of a ninja is to distract the enemy. This is right when her clothes goes bye-bye, along with lots of blood from Recca's nose.
Episode #: Probably 41 or 42.
Stats: 1 layer, A23 KEY
Sketches: 1 matching, unstuck
Comments: A beautiful closeup of Kurenai in attack mode (though I suppose she's almost always in attack mode as a flame being).
Episode #: 41: Round Two!! Recca Vs. Kurei!!
Stats: 2 layers, A11/F6
Sketches: 1 partial, unstuck
Background: Matching, unstuck
Comments: The ever lovely Kurenai descends upon Recca, ready to scorch the life out of him (oh, good). At right about this moment, he is putting up a barrier from Ryu Madoka.
Episode #: 41: Round Two!! Recca Vs. Kurei!!
Stats: 3 layers, stuck, C1/B1/A1 (all) KEY END
Sketches: 2 partial, unstuck, + layout sketch
Background: Matching, unstuck
Comments: Recca under a Ryu spiral during the final fight of the UBS. I haven't spotted the exact moment yet.
Episode #: Probably 41 or 42.
Stats: 1 layer, A24
Sketches: 1 matching, unstuck
Comments: And a pretty much complete Kurenai for the attack pile. Hopefully I will look up the exact moments of these two newer Kurenai cels soon.
Episode #: 41: Round Two!! Recca Vs. Kurei!!
Stats: 1 layer, A6 KEY
Sketches: 1 matching, unstuck
Comments: Resshin is the biggest and most powerful of the eight Ryu, and the most connected to Recca (not to mention the most condescending toward him)... but I won't get into that. This is when Resshin appears, then he announces that he's there to be entertained and to see which of the Flame Masters is stronger. NOT to save Recca's sorry behind.
Episode #: 41: Round Two!! Recca Vs. Kurei!!
Stats: 2 layers, stuck, A3 KEY/B4
Sketches: 1 matching, unstuck
Comments: At the very beginning of his fight with Kurei, Recca tries to act cool by summoning three Ryu (Homura, Saiha, & Nadare) simultaneously. There should also be a fireball effect surrounding him.
