I have had a sequence mate of this cel for many years and then I had the opportunity to buy this beauty. Thank you so much Ryouko for selling it to me.

In this scene, Nakago and Tomo have tricked Miaka. She thinks she can seduce Nakago and take back the Shinazho. I have to admit that I find this part of the story very odd. I am amazed that Miaka would be stupid enough to believe she can outsmart Nakago. He has been several steps ahead of her all along and now she thinks she can waltz right in a grab the necklace from him? Please! Someone grab a rock and knock some sense into her. On the plus side, at least we get to see Nakago without his armor and wearing the stolen Shinzaho.

If you look very closely at the screencaps below you will see that the layers on this cel do not match exactly. Its also why there are two B layers. B-3 is the mouth layer that matches with the A-1 layer of his body. The B-4 layer is his hand and comes from the next sequence where he casts a spell at Miaka.
