Well, if you have seen the entire TV series (spoilers ahead!!), then you know that this cel is from THE scene when Heero and Relena get all mushy on the Libra in Episode 48 ("Charging Into Confusion"). Right after the cel info, I will put the quotes from the scene. I just LOVE the way that Heero's eyes look during this scene, all mushy and sincere, as if he's FINALLY figured out in his warrior brain that Relena loves him and he loves her, and that what being a true warrior means is having something you love to protect. This is, for certain, when Heero first becomes the "Heart of Space." Heero: Zechs thinks otherwise.... and it seems that Zechs and Treize have no intention of stopping this war... I must go. Relena: Are you saying that if you go out, the war will end? Heero: I'll eliminate Zechs... then Treize... the war will end... and if you survive... peace will come.... this is the one single thing I can do for you. Relena: Heero.... Heero: I promised I'd protect you. To protect you and the earth sphere... the only way I can is to fight. Relena: That's- Heero: Let me go.... Relena: No! No! You're planning on dying aren't you? Heero lowers Relena's faceplate. Heero: Trust me.... Heero pushes relena away from Wing 0. Relena: (floating away) Heero?! The Zero starts up and gets ready to launch. Relena grabs hold of the railing. Relena: Heero... I'll trust you.... Heero: Farewell... Relena.
