88. Vintage Bebop Spike, from a flashback in Session #5, Ballad of Fallen Angels. In the show he wakes up after yet another near-death experience, looks at Julia (who's watching over him humming), and says "just like that, sing for me, please." It's my fallback boy-have-I-been-beat-up-and-do-I-ever-need-a-hug icon.



23. This is from the Japanese cartoon series Cat's Eye. I don't think it ever aired over here, but the story's about a police detective named Toshio Utsumi going after a group of art thieves known as Cat's Eye. It just so happens that his fiancee Hitomi and her sisters Ai and Rui run a cafe called Cat's Eye just across the street from the police station. You'd think that since someone somewhere made him a detective, he'd put two and two together but he never really does. I have a few icons of signs and symbols, and this is one of my favorites.



97. Your randomizer must be a Cat's Eye fan. This is from season 1, episode 7, where Toshio finally tells Hitomi he loves her by talking the owner of the building into setting the lights this way so she can see them from her apartment. That's the translation of the words, by the way: I love Hitomi. Sometimes this is my generic love icon, or my generic love-at-night icon.
