Hello! This might be premature and the site will be back up before Wednesday, but I wanted to see if any of the people who read my threads on /a/ would prefer I stick to my schedule and post the first volume of Rinne this Wednesday here or simply delay it until the site is back up. If the site goes back up, I'll probably redo it.

If you don't know what I am talking about, I dumped a few of Rumiko Takahashi's series on /a/ over the last year and a bit. Inuyasha was the most recent one.

I removed /lum/ a while back to try and consolidate the board. But maybe we can actually revive this place. This won't be a strictly UY board (since all rumic threads reference eachother), and OC is heavily encouraged! I'll be moving all the old posts here.

Is Lum a loli??? Tomobikanon 4/25/24 (Thu) 20:47:34 No.583 [Reply]

So I'm sure we're all familiar with that episode of uy where the school gets a new hard ass teacher who instantly starts crushing on lum (can't remember episode number). anyway, sensei gets called a lolicon for being into lum-chan. but lum isn't what we'd think of a loli. she's married, full sized, and has big tits even if she's the same age as ataru which is still kinda old for a loli. So I went and looked around at the loli hentai that was being made in the mid 80s and so far its what you'd expect. but its not like i'm the lolimaster or something and know what i'm talking about... r-right fed-chan? so did the word's meaning change? did the whole flat chested bratty midget thing come later? afaik lolicon means like "pedophile" in modern Japanese. gotta be a loli history guide somewhere. Anyway I'm high as fuck and probably reading too much into things. Gonna go take a nap.

That weird episode was written by Shusuke Kaneko, and he's mostly known for his 90s Gamera films. Check his filmography though, and you see his work around this time was teen sex comedies? The first 20 episodes were very rushed, and and Kaneko's episodes were not a good fit for the series so he was replaced by Kazunori Itō.

You can think of early UY as a nexus that many, many, film makers, writers, and animators, were part of who then went on to other things.

Kanako's films were part of the "pink film" genre of erotic softcore films and ran under the Nikkatsu Roman Porno line. So it's telling that right after UY, he's directing erotic films that are quasi pornographic.

Is Rumiko a closet case? Her comics are full of gender-bending, lesbian baiting. In the end, Ran used her life drain kiss on way more women than males.

Early UY is EXTREMELY horny, and if anything they tone it down a lot over time. Did the TV laws change or something?

Mendo Army Tomobikanon 4/24/25 (Thu) 05:17:04 No.1627 [Reply]

Oshii used Mendo as a vector for his militerism fetish while the comic merely had him have some glasses wearing bodyguards. Did he go too far? The show makes Mendo a tad bit more menacing than perhaps Rumiko had intended. The two-parter where they're used by Mendo to try to thwart Atru from getting Lum back makes Mendo a bit of a Bond villain.

The Mendo Army: Good or bad? It was a nice excuse to see various bits of German hardware from the Wehrmacht or Bundeswehr from MP40s, Leopard 1A5. It basically vanishes after Oshii leaves.

Anime-Mendo has a bit more of an edge than might be intended by Rumiko. he's meant to be a bit of a hot-head goof, whom in the moment will draw his sword on Ataru because he finds him so offensive and because he's a samurai traditionalist. Manga Mendo would probably not have shooting targets with Ataru simply because he would think thinking about him on off-hours is beneath him.

The animation team seems to have just loved Mendo though, giving him all these scenes and events. They kind of make him the "cool guy" that Rumiko is partially mocking to begin with. Guys just can't help themselves.

>>2064
I agree entirely. Sometimes people talk about Mendo's noble qualities and I can tell, they are approaching it from the anime. Not that I think Rumiko dislikes Mendo, but she's pretty clear that his better qualities are ultimately affectations, even if he won't fuck outside the school in a cheesy pleasure dome.

Tomobikanon 5/6/25 (Tue) 19:24:05 No.2077

>>2075
I think it's just basic writing where you need foils. He overlaps with Lum and Ataru as a character. He is normally well meaning and polite like Lum, but Ataru angers him and you can see his sword strikes as similar to Lum's lightning. And like Ataru, he's a wannabe lady's man virgin.

Mendo has some noble qualities, as well as selfish and vain ones, so it's not entirely affectations. He will do the right thing when pressed, and would never hurt a woman. He's Ataru with pretentions of class.
