The roughs, almost certainly by the episode’s animation director, Shinji Ochi, take the layout images to the next emotional level. Here I’ve featured the A1 keyframe, the most completely rendered of the four. Notice that the artist has sketched all of Ichese’s left hand, even though in the final sketches the parts hidden by the railing would be omitted. Careful animators did this to ensure that the visible parts of the hand would look like part of a credibly posed hand.
The thumbs add the roughs for the A2 and A4 keyframes. The second is especially worth visiting for the way Ochi really amped up Ichese’s determination as he fights pain and fatigue and gets ready to stand upright on his new cyborg leg.
