Post by: dak on September 18, 2008, 05:55:14 PM

I don't think Lum's birthday is ever mentioned in the anime, probably because Uru might have a different calender that doesn't match with the ones on Earth.
I know her sign is the tiger striped unicorn, but that doesn't help at all...

I think the only birthdays mentioned on the anime are Ataru's (April 13th) and Mendou's (April 1st) and that Shinobu is a Libra.

I  have  a  question  why  does  the  series  have  to  revolved  so  mush  on  the  game  of  tag?
Even  in  the  first  movie  is  based  around  shadow  tag.

maybe it is the game R.T like to play when she was a kid

It's a pun: Tag is known as "Onigokko" ("the Game of the Oni" or "You are the Oni") in Japanese.

Since good stories need Conflict to make the story go, Tag (The Chase) provides that conflict.

another question when is Ataru and Lum's first kiss?
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: cata on September 30, 2008, 10:17:06 PM
Early in the series. The first time that Lum appears in school. Lum sits on Ataru's lap and quickly kisses him. Shinobu gets surprised and Atar gets nervous and couldn't do nothing avoid the kiss. We don't get to see their lips touching but we know that's a kiss.

I heard several times in this Forum that Lum's B-day is 6 months after Ataru's B-day but we don't know the exact date. So Lum was born in October which is quite soon! =D

The first question has its answer, though i prefer an exact date but it's alright.
The second one, if you talking about manga, here:

(http://img01.picoodle.com/img/img01/3/9/30/dakd/f_URUSEIYATSUm_cc642d3.jpg) (http://www.picoodle.com/view.php?img=/3/9/30/dakd/f_URUSEIYATSUm_cc642d3.jpg&srv=img01)

It really a kiss, their lips had touched each other.

But it totally difference in anime.
I watch them again and see their first kiss in the fake date, episode 10.

I'm with Cata on this one. First Kiss is in the schoolroom.

It's just that the actual kiss is "off-camera" (out of sight of the viewers), so we have to infer it from the reactions around them.

Ataru's birthday is April 13th, as stated in episode 66. Then that would make Lum's birthday on October 13th?
Hey, that's one day before mine. ;D

I think 6 months means somewhere in October, not specifically october.

For my fic, I put her birthday on the week of the first tag race BUT that wouldn't mean that it would always be that specific day due to a possibly different year system.

I guess my idea doesn't really do much difference since we don't know the date of the tag race anyway.

Manga or anime and which episode?
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: veehive on October 03, 2008, 02:49:47 AM
In the anime, it's Episode 5: "Sakura, Raving Beauty of Mystery". :)

Post by: dak on October 03, 2008, 04:17:54 AM
I checked it, maybe it true so thank you all for the info.
Back to question 1, you said that in October so what will we do to celebrate her birthday
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: UruseiNeo on October 03, 2008, 05:16:05 AM
celebrate it ever day of october ^_^

or we could choose halloween due to its occasion. 13 works too. I dont think any other day would have any symbolism
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: dak on October 03, 2008, 05:19:28 AM
What do the elders think?
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: cata on October 03, 2008, 10:07:32 PM
I'm only 16 lol. That would be really ironic. Halloween's day = Lum's B-day.
Spooky! =D We choose a date to celebrate Lum's B-day but what if in another Forum the date is different? Two Lum's or... two B-days? x)

Anyways I'm for October 13. ^^
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: Kroptik on October 03, 2008, 10:19:44 PM
I'm for October 14th because it's my b-day and that way I'll never forget it. :P

But seriously now, anyone knows the publish date of the fi rst manga? We could use that as her birthday date.

I can only find of the anime, and guess what? It was in 1981 in the 14th of October. ;D
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: cata on October 03, 2008, 10:22:14 PM
I like 16th October too because it's in October and it can't be in a Friday 13th because it would be too much of a coincidence and the 16th day of each month is really IMPORTANT to me but I bet everyone has their favourite day in October. xD
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: Kroptik on October 03, 2008, 10:26:01 PM
May I ask why the 16th? I'm just curious. :P
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: cata on October 03, 2008, 10:47:34 PM
16th April, 3 days after Ataru's B-day I started dating my special person. ^^
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: dak on October 04, 2008, 04:18:18 PM
ok we have 13th, 14th, 16th October, i vote for 20th

let's make a poll
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: Kroptik on October 04, 2008, 05:16:06 PM
We'll have to narrow it down to a few options before we make a poll. :S
Title: Re: I have a question?
Post by: dak on October 04, 2008, 05:22:56 PM
4 isn't narrow enough?

THis  is  a  off  topic  question
I  read    trough  the  manga  again  and  i  notice  that  in  the  begening  of  the  series  rumico  makes  it  seam  like  ataru  and  lum  break  up,  and  he  maries  shinobu.  IN  the  chapter  were  lum  and  ataru  goes  to  the  future.  Was  that  her  intitial  intention  for  the  series?  I  am  asking  because  i  read  some  were  that  RT  tends  to  make  her  manga  without  any  general  plan.
