Woah! That were a really hard wall to me, it took me a long time, the most time I ever expend in my life doing a wall.
I started with a screencap, there are not so much graphic resources of Kamichu, but I saw a chapter where Yurie goes to the Gods world and really liked this cap, Yurie is calm and looking happy through the landscape and it is so nice, so I should capture that moment.
The wall its all vector made, it took me about 8 hours totally to vector Yurie, the bridge and the background, and that was my first attemp using Illustrator, I were Freehand user, but now for sure I have changed absolutely to Illustrator ;) the vector tools are amazing O_OU
Ok, so 8 hours aprox for the main vectors and a large amount of layers (don't know where tells the total layers in a document :?)
Here's the screencap I vectorized: The screencap
After the vector work, I tried to pain the background in Painter, but I never used it and don't know how to move the results to photoshop, so finally I painted it in photoshop with some default watercolur brushes, I'm very glad with the results ^^
Hope you like it!! and see kamichu! is a beautiful anime series ;)

Very nicely done. Someone recommneded to me that I do a wallpaper like this, but it looks like you beat me to the punch. My only suggestion is that when doing a vector, try varying up the width of your black outlines. Rather than just stroking the pen-tool path, or however you do it, make each individual line a vector-shape and/or fill it in; this technique really improves the look of vectors. It took me a long time to learn this one, and it really does help make vectors look better. But, like I said, you did a very nice job in re-creating the scene, great job!

Nice style.. I love Kamichu so it's nice to see walls of it coming up. The shading on the architecture is good but since it isn't the same style as the crisp vectorness you used for Yurie, it looks discontinuous. Apart from that, nice wall! You certainly got that serene feeling with it...

That's really good. I like it very much, nice composition. WOW>

I think I have been quite close to the screencap, in my first post you can view it, and I think that edge is almost equal to the original, and why you don't like the highlighting? could you be more specific?
Thanks to all for your comments!

Outstanding, would love to see you do more from Kamichu, like maybe the shot where Yurie is floating back down with Kenji after pacifying the storm? :)
Thanks for the WP!!

Yurie is god(kamisama)!!!

This is a really nice use of a screencap. You've done a great job of capturing Yurie as she enjoys the view. I notice you removed the little god that was in the background. It all comes together very well.
