Urusei Yatsura's director was Oshii and you can see his odd dreamy style starting to shine in these scenes. This generally just hurts the stories and I think almost everyone agrees this is the weakest phase of the anime.ĭuring the 30s, but especially into the 40s, rather than just extending chaotic sequences, the anime staff starts writing their own scenes and plots to fill the episodes around the manga chapter's content. They also slowly phase out most anime original characters, aside from the Lum stormtroopers who are technically based on (nameless) manga characters. They also introduced Ten/Jariten, a baby Oni, much earlier than in the manga.ĭuring the middle 20s, they change to one story per episode, extending the manga stories by increasing running sequences, fights or other "filler" content. Even during this period though, the anime adapted some stories out of order and had a couple of anime original characters running around. In the anime, he has a private army and arrives in a giant flying fortress. They're adaptations that generally follow the manga fairly closely, although often making the punchlines/end of the stories more exaggerated than they were in the manga like several times the mangas has everyone beaten up or in trouble, while the anime has the entire block/city exploding or in ruins, in the manga "Mendou" has many bodyguards and gets to school from an helicopter. The original anime itself changes several times, and there's even a complete change of the studio behind it halfway through (from Pierot to Deen).Įarly episodes generally have two stories per episode.
Keeping the supporting cast consistent makes sense, so it will be interesting to see the direction they take here when handling that oddity. This poster seems to show Megane and Chibi with designs closer to their original ones (and black hair), but the third character alongside them, with brown hair, seems to be Kousuke, not Perm, who never really coexisted with them in the manga. The original anime turned the Lum fan club into 4 individual characters (really, only Megane and Chibi have a distinct design and presence in the early manga, with the others being inconsistent and although sometimes there were 4 members like in the original anime, often there were only 3) and gave some of Kosuke's scenes to Perm or Megane, completely writing out Kosuke himself. You have Kosuke briefly appearing in chapter 1, then he disappears for a while in favor of the Lum fanclub, then eventually they just kind of fade away and Kosuke returns. Masaru Yokoyama (Horimiya, Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, 2019's Fruits Basket) is composing the music.Ĭlick to shrink.The most curious part here to me is how exactly they will handle Megane, Chibi and Kosuke (or is it Perm?), due to their odd status in the original manga.
