Description

**THIS IS *NOT* MY OWN WORK, BUT IT IS SOMETHING THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE**

This is something VERY special to me - an original sketch by Junichi Hayama (animator, Fist of the North Star; character designer, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) at Anime Expo 2000.

I attended the joint panel of Hayama-san and Fukami Rika (best known as the voice of Sailor Venus) to promote the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure prequel OAV series. There was a lottery to see which 10 lucky attendees would win a sketch from Hayama-san. I was one of them. The way it was set up, he would do the sketches first, so the winning ticket holders went to the front of the line. For whatever reason, the guy in front of me had to cut out (no autograph board, I guess), so I was the FIRST to get a sketch.

I asked for Noriaki Kakyoin from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Hayama-san mentioned through his interpreter that Kakyoin was a very difficult character for him to draw, which made me appreciate this piece all the more.
