We have finally confirmed where exactly this cel came from. In Episode 3, (Chapter 7, 30 minutes and 29 seconds into the show) during the battle with Ivan the Terrible and Uranus, GR makes his appearance. This cel is what appears on Ivan's monitor when he locks on to confirm that his enemy is indeed Giant Robo. This cel also appears in the recap sequence before Episode 4. This is a standard Japanese TV sized cel, painted from edge to edge and does not have a sequence number. Has been trimmed by the studio.
Daisaku, whose name means "great work", is a boy who became fated to fight against the B.F. Organization after being voice registered as the controller of the world's mightiest robot weapon, Giant Robo. Dr. Kusama and his wife, Daisaku's parents, were killed by Big Fire agents while ensuring the escape of their son. An ordinary adolescent would be overwhelmed with suffering due to the pain of being all alone in the world. However, realizing that many people had been sacrificed to protect him and G. Robo, Daisaku is a stolid boy who will not make his feelings public and do things to cause trouble for the people around him. What experiences will he have from now on and how will he grow up?... That is the theme of "Giant Robo".
