== The Katsemaniacs' Graphics Section ==
* Katse in a loose shirt and nothing else: I don't go in for nudes, they embarrass me. So this isn't a nude, but I think it's quite sexy. Vaunda Perry drew this for me, so you will find this picture nowhere else (unless someone else refs it, in which case please give Vaunda credit.)
* Fully painted poster from Fantastic TV Collection #3. Unfortunately I couldn't fix the blurring between the two pages (originally this was a 2-page spread) without destroying my book.
* Katse in mask: Rather nice headshot with pretty shading. From Fantastic TV Collection #3.
* Onna taicho pic: From Fantastic TV Collection #3. Comes from ep. #102, I think.
* Another onna taicho pic: Also from Fantastic TV Collection #3. Definitely from ep. #102.
* Onna taicho viewed through rain. Also from Fantastic TV Collection #3 and ep. 102.
