Dr. Slump - Syoppaman & Suppaman Production Cel

Rare character pairing: an original hand-painted production cel with stuck douga featuring both Syoppaman and Suppaman (in his civilian outfit)!

This exceptional cel captures two of Toriyama’s most hilarious superhero parody characters in the same frame, a truly uncommon combination that makes this piece particularly special for collectors. Suppaman alongside Syoppaman perfectly showcases Toriyama’s genius for creating comedic character duos with complementary visual designs.

What makes this pairing particularly amusing is how both characters represent different aspects of Toriyama’s superhero satire, Suppaman as the delusional wannabe hero with no actual powers, and Syoppaman as the accidentally effective hero whose « superpower » is simply colliding into threats due to his poor eyesight. Together, they embody Toriyama’s playful mockery of superhero tropes that was years ahead of its time.

The rare production anomaly of having the cel and douga physically stuck together preserves this unique character interaction exactly as it existed during the animation process, offering collectors an authentic glimpse into how Toei Animation brought these beloved parody characters to life with traditional hand-painted techniques.
