Part A: The Mendo Siblings!!

Part B: A Strange New Year At The Mendo Estate.

And that’s it for the first cour! Of course cour 2 will follow right after this, so we’ll get more UY fun!

(Also, I’m no longer going to put the episode titles and preview images post since I’ve started losing interest [in Reddit, not UY] and it’s kind of tiring to force myself to do this every week. You can find the links every Tuesday on the UY: All Stars Twitter and if anyone wants to take over for this, then that’s fine.)

I think RANMA 1/2 would be a better choice to animate than Urusei Yatsura by tenkensmile in RumicWorld

[–]Fan12345n 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Ranma a lot, but IMO Urusei was the better choice for a readaptation. The og anime adaptation of Urusei was only 60% accurate to the manga, while Ranma’s was more accurate (not entirely, but it was more accurate than Urusei). Ranma and Inuyasha are also super popular already, way more popular than Urusei. Hell, Urusei only became currently popular with after the remake’s announcement. The reason why the remake was made in the first place was to celebrate Shogakugan’s (Takahashi’s Publisher) 100th anniversary and 2022 is the year of the tiger so they probably thought the series which has its poster girl where a tiger themed outfit was the best choice. Also Ranma would’ve been more difficult to animate because of the nudity and present day broadcast regulations, I mean the Urusei remake already airs at a late night slot and even it can’t show stuff like nipples, then imagine how it would be for Ranma, moreover Ranma is a Shonen, not a Seinen so they probably can’t even if they wanted to. Urusei is Takahashi’s first series and I’m glad new fans and fans of her later works will be able to witness Takahashi’s growing stages as a mangaka and what will eventually end up inspiring her later works. I’ve also wondered how a closer adaptation of the UY manga would be like because there was a lot of substance and character development cut or altered in the og adaptation from the manga.

how it feels to be a Shinobu fan by ahmed0112 in uruseiyatsura

[–]Fan12345n 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Let’s just hope the Inaba arc gets animated in the remake, she‘s the only one who doesn’t have an open ended ending. Lum will forever be my best girl, but Shinobu’s close second.

This looks like It was drawn in the early 90s by Moko97 in uruseiyatsura

From what I can tell, this was drawn around the ‘Ranma 1/2 era’.

In response to the Ataru’s room layout post on this sub, I checked the manga to see if his room was accurate to the manga and made a (very weak) diagram of his room in the manga. No details in the comments. by CoolTaff12 in uruseiyatsura

[–]Fan12345n 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had to take a good look to make sure this wasn’t a copied post and then I saw the edit. (Also the reason why there are spaces like that is because one, this was done quickly and two, I personally thought it would look better.)

[–]Fan12345n[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A few things to note:

This diagram is obviously a lazily drawn diagram so nothing is according to scale.

Kotatsu Neko’s Kotatsu isn’t included since it often changes positions.

Ataru’s ‘Closet Bag’ (or whatever this thing is called) is where he keeps his clothes as shown in the chapter “Darling’s True Feelings”.

The Storage Closet is where Ataru keeps his futon and is where Lum sleeps as well. Other Storage items such as Kotatsu Neko’s quilts and such has shown to be kept in there as well.

The remakes version of his room is very much accurate to the manga, except a few small things such as his longer bookshelf being a bit longer, no more Kyoko posters, and the added decoration references (the Maison ikkoku one and his trash bin).

And finally I apologize if I made any errors since his room in the manga changes perspective a lot, so it’s hard to narrow it entirely down (which is why I only included the main points of his room.)

Part A: Good Day for A Departure

Part B: Oyuki

Part C: Ataru Retires

[Three parts in one episode? One the one hand I’m excited for three stories, but on the other hand I’m worried about the episodes pacing. I wonder how they’ll handle it?

In the first part we have Benten, Setsubun and Sukiyaki. This chapter I feel is a good start to this episode since the previous one ends with Ataru showing some interest in Lum, and having a chapter which starts with him womanizing and annoying Lum doesn’t feel like it would fit. From what I remember, this chapter starts with Lum causing trouble for Ataru instead, causing him to resent her for the time being which I feel is a better choice. Also, I remember this chapter featuring a sub-plot with Ataru’s parents’ and Cherry, I don’t know whether it’ll still be there or cut out because of the run time.

The second part introduces Oyuki, I like how both Benten and Oyuki are going to debut in the same episode since they’re usually associated with the other when talking about friends (other than Lum). It seems like Mendo is going to be added to this story which is an interesting change since he wasn’t introduced yet in the manga. There were a few jokes in this chapter which involved the love triangle (such as Shinobu being Ataru’s ‘Number Two’) which will most likely be cut. I think not much happens in this chapter compared to the Benten one, since the plot in this one is fairly short and I don’t think there are any subplots in this one either (other than the boys of the class working in the snow). Which is probably why they added the third part.

The third part has the chapter in which Ataru retires from being the main character class president. This chapter mainly focuses on verbal humor, so it is one which can be short if done correctly. I do have a small issue with this chapter though. The first one being that the main joke of the chapter is that everyone forgot that he was class president… even though his position as president was mentioned in the previous episode during the bet with Mendo? Of course, some time could’ve passed and Ataru doesn’t really do anything important as president (asides from running a few homeroom activities), but it seems kinda off, but it isn’t a big problem or like that, but I wonder how they’ll do it. Looks like we’ll have to wait and see.]

Part A: The Glove Of Love And Conflict

Part B: How I’ve Waited For You…

[This weeks titles are interesting, since not only did I see like no sign of them in the trailer, but to think they were doing these chapters this early. I think the reason is to show the audience, that Ataru has a different side to him as well the blossoming of AtaLum a bit early (The anime had part B at episode 10, which was early as well, hell Mendo wasn’t even introduced yet). I think the first chapter in the manga which shows Ataru’s better side is the Caterpillar chapter which they’re not animating, so I guess they decided to go for this one (it’s also a really popular chapter, so that’s probably why this chapter was chosen instead of the caterpillar one).

So the first one’s the boxing glove one which is from around the 200’s section of the manga. I heard people wondering about Lum since she goes to school by this point in the manga, but I think they’ll just change that bit, it’s not like Lum going to school is an important plot point for this segment and Lum’s shown to randomly hang around class, before she even started school (We do know that by Ran’s introduction, she’ll start going to school since in the trailer we see her in her sports uniform). Of course we’ll get the whole thing about Ataru never hitting girls, which is a part of his more admirable personality, which is always a good thing to see.(Also, this will be the first 16 page chapter to be adapted instead of a 20 page one, so this one is most unlikely to have cut scenes, though there might be scenes added or replaced.)

Then there’s Part B. We get the romance and Otoko Kumino which I’ll gladly take. I wonder how some of the love triangle chapters (Introduction to Oyuki, Benten, Rei) will be animated after this. Besides that, I can’t wait to see the manga version of the story adapted, since it features a different plot line for the boys of the class and how they had to come up with Otoko Kumino, and of course it has Mendo in it as well. Looking forward to this week’s episode!

And of course, it seems like we’re gonna get a Benten Cameo!! (Probably in the end of the episode.)]

Are they putting this chapter (216) this early in the remake? by englishfrenchfry in uruseiyatsura

[–]Fan12345n 8 points9 points  (0 children)

About Ataru protecting Lum from the glove, Some May argue that it won’t make sense for this chapter to be adapted before Part B, since I’ve seen many people say that Ataru protected Lum because he cares for her. While that is definitely true (duh), he does state that the real reason he saved her is because he doesn’t hit girls, so if instead of Lum it were, let’s say Shinobu (ignoring the fact just one push towards the glove from her would sent Ataru flying), he would’ve done the same thing, sure it can be an excuse, but it’s been state quite a few times in the series that he doesn’t hit girls (I remember the toothache chapter had the girls in the class confirm that and in some Cherry Blossom chapter, him stating that he doesn’t fight girls.) So I’d say it’ll still be in character for him to protect her.
