I'm glad I watched it, it sucks that not that many people will know how fun it was to watch.

It's just underrated on /a/. Most anime fans not born in the 90's knows who Lum is and how much the series changed the industry.

I rarely see anything good here.

It was just a lot of fun. Every character made you happy to see them, even the less favorable ones. Ryuu and her father were always a delight to see.

>>145465257
they were a fucking trip, every time they were in the episode I had a stupid smile on my face.

I feel like this is one of those shows that most anons know about but because its rarely discussed it indefinitely sits in their backlog. At least this is the case for me. But thanks for reminding to check it out.

His' episodes were cute and all, but kinda boring.

I'm not so sure about this. It kinda sounds like fun and it really does look good for such an old show. But then again 195 fucking episodes is just a huge investment. I'm always hoping that there will be a remake or an OVA with max 24 episodes or so.

Less references and craziness from what I remember. But not having Lum's stormtroopers around is one of the biggest pluses ever.

Don't worry, /a/ will know soon.

Be honest with me /a/. I really tried to like Ranma 1/2. I gave it a good 50 episodes. Is this gonna be like another Ranma 1/2 where no real progress in anything is ever made?

>>145468598
I watched every single episode of Ranma 1/2 about 10 years ago and thought it was trash.

Watched Urusei Yatsura more recently, and it was fantastic until it got to around episode 26, which was when they started doing full episode stories instead of 2 stories per episode.

If you're expecting progress, look elsewhere. Urusei Yatsura is a comedy, not a romance. It just happens to be a far better comedy than Ranma.

>>145468598
Exactly. There is not a main storyline.

Urusei Yatsura is a great comedy for sure. I liked Ranma, but the characters in UY are just a bit more enduring I think.

UY is awesome. I was pretty sad when I ran out of episodes.
I thought I would never find another long running show to fill the gap, but then I found Sgt Keroro.

I think it'd be nice if they gave us something UY at least every few years. Or do a live action version like they did for Ranma.

Takahashi really means it when she wants to move on. She's definitely done the same for Inuyasha with Rinne now.

I wouldn't be surprised if a new UY or ranma 1/2 came out. At least maybe for a season just to help a dead franchise. I'm surprised as good as UY it really died... Considering it did help change the industry somewhat but it did also follow predecessors too like Osomatsu and other series that eventually died off.

The problem with Takahashi series is the storylines are more like antics that are popular with no resolution and basically lack substance. They end the same way a series begins. It doesn't change. They're like looney toons, if you kill the road runner; Thats it, the end. This was mentioned on looney tunes as well to educate the viewers, and everyone loved it. It's a universal rule authors make and thy have to abide by them; like it or not, till they can be a kubo and asspull like crazy.

Inuyasha was substantial to a degree that did progress but also lacked and suffered in quality. Rinne is decent also, but isn't as bad compared to the earlier works in that regard.

Rinne might end up suffering and could potentially be her last work, considering how old she is now.

Aside from Maison Ikkoku

Nothing from Rumiko since UY has been as good as UY. I didn't enjoy most of her newer work.

>>145472379
This I agree with. Best work for an 80's series. Beginning to end. College kids series and not a shounen.

Put subs on the BD and I'll watch it.

>>145472379
I've read Maison Ikkoku a number of times, it's very special to me.

>>145468598

Well, the Ranma anime after a while stops introducing characters since it goes mainly into episodic filler. UY is episodic, but you often get new recurring cast members. There's some romance progression initially when they change Shinobu to Lum as the main girl, but after that everything remains still.

Although at least the final episode of the anime does give some romantic resolution, unlike the manga ending/5th movie.

I recently started watching this, and am about 10 episodes in, and holy fuck this shit is so boring and bad. All of the episodes end in some nonsense way and none of the characters are likable. Every episode a new character I dislike even more than the last is introduced. Lum is a bitch, Shinobu is a bitch too but I find myself rooting for her because she's not nearly close to as big of a bitch as Lum.

And despite all that I keep watching it because obviously it can have good episodes, like the first and episode 7, and also I figure I'm going to watch it in entirety anyhow because I simply must. It's a major show with a lot of history and influence I want to see first hand. But I haven't been enjoying the ride. When does the show get good?

>>145480305
The beginning can be rough.
I think ep 10 (the christmas one) was brilliant and made me think it was worth it to keep going.
It sure was.

>>145480305
I suggest you watch something else or maybe kill yourself. If you can't appreciate the fast paced, off the wall humor, then you shouldn't be watching.

>>145480479
You'll have to deal with people being bitches in this show though, men and women alike.
I though it was hilarious, but then again I liked Sumo Wrestler Matsutaro.

The thing is it gets kinda experimental and you'll have many types of episodes that are more than comedy. It's pretty refreshing.

>>145465799
>>145468598

It's not really dead though. Its still very popular in Japan.

>>145480644
Listen mister "the show becomes garbage at ep 26" or whatever.
I liked it from the start. The retro artstyle is charming and it's pretty funny. But sometimes some of the shorts build up for a joke that just never come.
I know I got pretty frustrated at a couple of them, and that's why I think it can be rough for people less used to old anime.

Wouldn't call it best part though.

Do you like this opening?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a series "going nowhere" or not having "substance". It's just a different kind of experience, a set of familiar characters you enjoy your time with.

The show is better resting in peace with such amazing record of fantastic movies and being one of the most influential shows of all time.
You couldn't replicate the magic the show had with Oshii, Yamazaki and the rest of talented people on board

>>145480305
>When does the show get good?

I thought the show started improving after Mendo's introduction, right after the point where you stopped. However, the real leap in quality comes when it stops doing the two chapters or stories per episode stuff (they stop doing two titles around episode 20, but still continue adapting two stories per episode for a while in the 20s). That gives Oshii a lot more time to add his own content and craziness to the show, which can become really surreal at times, in later episodes basically even making episodes that basically fit into other genres.

Even the 2nd staff that takes over after Oshii leaves still attempts to keep that style going, rather than going with a pure manga adaptation, although due to being different people it's not exactly the same style.

>>145481665
There's no perfect way to watch tv. I like to keep myself cultured and enjoy things. If I can't complete something; I leave it alone. I wasn't being critical; I was stating out how it was, though it was a bit biased and opinionated. If you want to enjoy it for leisure sake; by all means, enjoy it. Nothing wrong with it. I have my fun things at times myself, just to let go of the tension of illusion of climbing up and just letting go.

If people want to speak Japanese in an annoying theatrical way; let them embarrass themselves. I'd only do it to acquire another language and skill set, even though I don't know how different places will behave. It only shows me how people are conditioned to their television and keep t simple with people in real life, even when it comes to embarrassing a culture and language when it's nothing like they think it is. Hipster tourism at its finest.

>>145481268
You do realize that manga and anime are based off books and novels, right? Kinda shot yourself in the foot there yo.

>>145466739
The manga and the anime are similar but they have important differences.
A few examples being stuff like Ataru being more cynical and stubborn compared to his anime counterpart and Lum being more agressive and jelaous.
Onsen-Mark is married and has a kid in the manga meanwhile he is single in the anime and in love with Sakura.

They have similar stuff but they are differenr worlds.

Also the manga doesn't have the Lum Stormtroopers which in my opinion are half of the fun on the anime

>>145480712
No dude; it's dead. We're talking about people who keep up in the present projects and not series that get old and out of print. If it was alive; we would've seen somethings new but nothing popped up.

As far as I'm concerned, Lupin III is far more active in contrast in comparison.

>>145481855
I liked the OVA from a few years back.

>>145481836
Not that anon, but maybe he just wants to see anime that's influential. I don't see that as a bad thing. How can you even discuss anime if you are incapable of forming the big picture?

>>145482182
Ain't nothing wrong going retro and enjoying something just to see why it was good for its time.

>>145482117
Same but is not on the same level compared to the previous stuff
I mean you had Satoshi Dezaki working on the fifth movie and helping on the OVAs

>>145466739

The real biggest difference between anime and manga is that when the anime starts doing full episode stories, Oshii often used the extra screentime to go full crazy. For example, in the manga, there's this one chapter where Ataru goes to some alien bath place in a sub-dimension - in the anime, half of the episode, rather than being about the manga story, is about Ataru stuck in some really creepy and dream-like city in the sub-dimension while attempting to find his way to the bath.

Anime original stories like the one where Lum lost her memory and Ataru had to invade Mendou's mansion or the one where Lum was lost in alternate worlds and trying to find her way home take more dramatic and serious beats than any of the manga stories aside from maybe the finale.


>>145481989
The manga has the Lum fanclub quartet in the beginning, but they completely disappear after Mendo is introduced, aside from Megane making a couple of very minor appearances and three of them appearing together for a single scene much later.

Also, some of the running jokes (like Mendou ALWAYS losing to Ataru in everything) are anime-only.

>>145481876
>That gives Oshii a lot more time to add his own content and craziness to the show
No it doesn't you stupid retard. If anything, it ruins the perfect pacing the show originally had. All of a sudden there are 60+ second scenes of pure filler that aren't funny.

That episode where Ataru and Lum protect the caterpillar from the rest of the class is dead set garbage, and the precise point the series went downhill.

>>145482514
How many years have you been going on with that.
And you used to be more polite too, what happened. Did you even keep watching.
Those "filler" are good most of the time. It can be used to add atmosphere or display good animation like those super long chase scenes that made the anime memorable and is something that only animation can bring.

>>145482514
Eh, I don't think the first few episodes of the show (or the manga in general) have anything close to a "perfect pacing". The series just stays too monotonous when it's just joke after joke after joke - with the punchlines sometimes going away almost unnoticed. The anime adds more variation, helping the whole thing breath.

Now, I can't remember what story you're talking about there, so it probably really wasn't good, but I enjoyed the vast majority of the anime-only content.

I hated that OVA, couldn't stand how much of a dick Ataru was to Lum. It's like they mixed up his character with Ranma.

>>145482840

The school scenes were mostly an adaptation of a manga chapter that wasn't animated originally (although the Mendo army and Lum's friends and rivals popping up were original) - They even included Ataru's friend from the manga that just made cameos in the original anime, rather than replacing him with Perm or Megane like what the old anime often did.

You probably can, and thought it was really good, as I've seen it praised on /a/ numerous times. Go and re watch episode 25, and explain why the elongated nature of the episode is a good thing compared to earlier episodes. Feel free to watch the next 5 or so too, because they suffer from the exact same problem.

>>145484542
Nah. The show gets better when changes from two episodes to one

>>145484265
It's a sitcom you dip.
They don't pretend something amazing is going to happen next episode.
You're supposed to watch an episode and have fun.
The plot not evolving is not a factor of quality because it is not the point of the show.

>>145484542
So did you keep watching?
You do realize long running show with absolutly no breaks for the animators can have some weak moments, right?
It's clearly a transition in style for the anime. Keep watching and you'll see they get their shit together.

The plan is to livestream about 16 episodes, and if there's enough interest (and if the mods allow it), release another batch a week later or something. /vp/ did a something exactly like this with the original series and it was a lot of fun, hoping it'll be the same here. Urusei Yatsura is also the perfect anime for this, because there's no strong story continuity; it's really easy to get into.

Send me an email if it turns out you can't post the link on here!

It's probably 200 episodes of standard rom com cliches with no story line and a lack of development between characters.

Fun fact: initially Rumiko made Lum to be a some kind of antagonist and a kinda evil girl according to her demonic nature.
Later cause of the character popularity she kinda softened her and made her the main girl instead of Shinobu.

I always liked Ataru's "poetic" side.

>"In the name of our youth"
>The characters were born around 1961 or 1962 if the manga started in 1978

topkek at Ataru thinking they're young

Yeah I have to admit, I skipped a few of the japanese historical reenactment epsiodes because I had no clue what tale it was a reenactment of and thus the majority of the joke was lost on me.
In hindsight, a lot of the show's humor is probably lost as almost everything is based in some kind of Japanese folklore. Of course it stands perfectly well on it's own without knowledge of it, but now that I know a bunch more, whenever I go back to an epsiode it's slightly funnier when you realize how disorted it is from the folktale it's referencing.

No it's 200 episodes of crazy shit hapening.

>>145486681
No need, here's the link if you want it early:

12 episodes up, 4 more to upload. Cytube is a sync service, so it'll cycle through those episodes endlessly. Room will be pretty much empty until I make a thread.

I remember an interview in an italian magazine inwhich Rumiko was surprised of the fact that uruseyatsura was popular in foreign countries, and she assumed that people simply liked Lum's character, and that's was cause as you said this manga is built on japanese culture and myths that a foreigner cannot understand.

Does it drag on forever like Ranma 1/2 or does it follow the manga with very minimal filler?

>>145487302
Drag it on forever following the manga with minimal filler.

so,what would it take to get a new urusei yatsura anime similar to osomatsu san?

>>145465435
it gave a shitton of industry veterans their resume

>>145487211
Well I also like Lum's character very much. She's easily my favorite female throughout every anime and manga that I've seen or read.

>>145487399
Rumiko starting it back up again.
Come to think of it, I dont know if there's no interest in reviving it, or if Rumiko just won't allow it. I feel like she's the type of woman to sell out if the price is high enough. Or was at least.

>>145487302
Give it the 3 episode rule and see if you like it.

>>145487399
The problem is that like Rinne's flop demonstrated Rumiko's comedy is outdated and people today is not attracted by it anymore.
It would be necessary an updated reboot but with such a popular classic is not easy.
To love-ru trouble kinda tried to be a rebooted uruseyatsura.

>>145487674
Rumiko is already very rich and still live a simple life.
She doesn't need or want more money.

She just loves making new manga and doesn't want to go back to old stuff.

>>145487826
Seriously? Urusei Yatsura has aged unbelievably well.

Comedy isn't a strong point of the japs when it comes to the anime medium, but Urusei Yatsura gets it spot on, and it's still funny today. I don't think there's a single comedy anime in the last 5 years that matches it.

It's also surprisingly well animated. The voice acting is also superb.

>>145485869
It would be fun having a reboot of uruseyatsura just to see /a/ getting triggered by Mendo NTRing and cucking Ataru. And for Shinobu to be the hugest slut in the anime universe.

>>145488050
Still rinne that is a return to her usual comedy is not nearly as popular as any of her other long series. Surely this is not an incentive for producers to invest in a new series.
And i can see from where it come. I really enjoyed both uruseyatsura and Ranma, but when i've started Rinne felt so deja-vu and outdated. When you watch the original series you watch it as a classic, but a new season with the same humor is a very risky project.

>>145488159
To be honest Shinobu going with Mendou felt pretty normal. Even Ataru doesn't have a problem with it and shows how much Ataru grow up his old crush and accepted Lum in his life.

In the manga is bit more complicated, specially because Shinobu leave Mendou for Inaba

I see people posting about this shit each and every day on here so how can you people claim that everyone forgot about it and that /a/ doesn't like it?

I join the threads every time even though I haven't seen it because Lum is cute

>>145489053
watch the anime!
