I think I've already stated that I like Ataru because, everything he does reflects on me. Not on the ball most of the time, and quite flirtatious. As for Mendou, the guy is just plain funny. Acting all supierior, and then acting like a coward the next...oh yea with a postering masculine exterior...it suddenly gets shut down for being claustrophobic and afraid of the dark. Genius!
-
Onsen-Markis funnier, IMHO.
"I wanna hit the big-time! I wanna have kids fighting over my officially licensed action figure chains and bedclothes!"
-
I agree that ataru and mendo r da leading males in da anime,they get many scene time and both of them are loved and love lum
-
Lum doesn't love Mendo in some episodes she hates him or she ignores him completly.
-
and remember the episode where mendo enters the story(not the episode where mendo makes a sudden appearance), lum really hated him
-
oh,sorry
i suppose i typed wit mistakes
my apologies
-
Yes... mistakes... sure ... accepted...
-
just cuz u r falling star,one of my brothers-in-lum,i will believe u
ok,lum doesnt love him but he loves her,dats true
i hav heard mendo is just a fancy and filthy rich ataru
can somebody tell me proofs of it?
-
The public baths episode... That I think its episode 101. Operation; Peek in the Woman's Bath and some others where Mendo and Ataru have similar behaviour, and I think in one of those Mendo is worst than Ataru.
-
that one is realy stupid.
-
I remember that episode its really stupid but mendou have really perv thinkings but the episode is still funny
-
indeed
-
And the episode of the talking flowers when Mendou is shocked by Lum's ignoration and make this figure

scary pic I have to say
-
I understand the axe and the sword and the arrow, but the one in the back was killed with a plunger???
-
It's UY, they will always throw in some weird and funny
-
One can say that shutaro's life was "flushed away"
-
maybe its a weird mace... who knows?
-
It's UY, they will always throw in some weird and funny
I know that.
/me grabs a plunger *
Who wanna be first??
-
Forgotten! Forgotten!
-
no!! forget that!!
i want to be killed by a plunger!!
lol
curiosity will kill me someday lol
-
no curiousity killed the cat, come her dark
anyway, does anyone actually think mendo will get cured of his phobia
-
yes, if he thinks theres a girl in the room he should be fine.
-
I don't think so. Ataru can change. Mendou can't.
-
He is gonna need many years of psychoterapy 2 get rid of his claustrophobia,
so he can change but in a slow rate
-
Who knows?
-
It is most probable that he wont change at all as he depends a lot in been near women to overcome fear
-
Indeed.
-
lol women have a lot of power in this anime
amazing!!
-
Woman have a lot of power everywhere!
-
yeah and mendo has "power" [money] too so he should find a girl any time now... [power=power] [mendo=anygirl]
he should give up lum...
i mean SHE wont give up ataru
-
And Ataru wont give up on Lum. Mendou will marry someone like him: rich and good looks.
-
she should be smart too.. they dont need any more money xD
-
If she was smart, she wouldn't marry Mendou.
-
lol good point
-
Thanks.
-
And, what about Miss Asuka Mizunokoji?
-
Asuka is... different. Asuka is a dummie head. A hillarious dummy head.
-
Not True... Ok... a small part.
-
Lol.
-
Let just say that she knows little about life, and leave it at that.
-
Offtopic: its sad... to see so many UY characters without a brain...
it saddens me ;(
-
That shows you are smart, Miss watashi.
-
They have brains. They just don't usually use them for the right things.
-
indeed, Miss Cata.
-
Actually Ataru is very smart guy as you might think of it or not (only when he wants to)
-
He shows it in every single episode.
-
he isnt smart... he is just clever...
-
he isnt smart... he is just clever...
yeah it's true ;D
-
He mixes been clever plus his lust
-
indeed
-
i wonder how ataru's brain hasnt been damaged by so many electrical shocks...
-
Or his heart.
-
He's a has cockroach resistance, what could possibly happen to him, when he has his sights on a girl nobody can prevent him from asking her her phone number and address
-
After witnessing his huge stamina and endurance,one sshouldnt be amazed that in ataru's blood resides an universal cure (but well,probably that sounds too macabre)
-
but possible
-
Just leave Ataru alone. Alone with Lum. ;D
-
NO, that's the last thing the stormtroopers would want
-
Indeed.
-
true
-
Lum doesn't care what the Stormtroopers think or want.
-
Sometimes she is curiosed for what are they doing.
-
Lum doesn't care what the Stormtroopers think or want.
Sorry to correct ya,but although it isnt a big deal,she does care what they think,they are her personal fan club and even when it hurts them,they have helped her into nabbing ataru (ex. episode 170 where Lum found a mini cupid)
-
Kotatsu-Neko is my favorite male character. So easygoing and clueless. :D)
-
Kotatsu-Neko the the cat gangster. ;D

-
He can kick just about anybody's ass. :D)
-
indeed
-
But his ass can be kicked too.
-
But he will not feel it.

LOL xD
-
well. personally... i believe Mendou is clearly the best.
he always has good lines. and is probably my favorite form of comedy within UY.
besides... Hes awesome...
A samurai. has an army(of Nazi-like soldiers, if you ask me...)
and he always has a plan...
on a plus side he has Ataru Characteristics(perversion) that kick in as needed
and he isn't overly powerfully awesome, as he has the fear of the dark, and claustrophobia(which actualy add to his comedy side.)
-
True, but the fact that he has a ton of money ruins it a bit, because he always resorts to it to solves his issues.
Now if you gave Ataru Mendou's looks and personality, but not the money... That would be comedy. ;D
-
Money cannot buy happiness and Mendo knows it well, because he doesnt have Lum.
I prefer Ataru not just because he's a perv but he's funny.
I think this picture looks very well in this topic.
Mendo vs Ataru who will win ?

I don't think he knows it yet, but he is given the opportunity to learn it over the course of the series ....
(does he actually ever learn this, BTW?)
And, it's not just that Lum cannot be bought (which she can't), but also that the Mendo family trillions are chump change to the rest of the galaxy (when a 1km taxi ride with the interstellar taxi service costs ALL THE EARTH'S OIL and Lum pays the tab with the equivalent of a debit card ...).
-
...or earth oil have very few value :P
-
Well... this is totaly off topic... but still... may be a good history lesson...
Well what I'm trying to say is that when UY started airing in Japan Oil was at $35 per Barrel... ( and that because of the Iran Revolution and the Iran/Iraq war because before that it was at $16/barrel)
But now the price is around $130 to $135... so if that episode was made with today's prices, it only would just need more or less a 1/3 of the Earths Oil to pay the debt...
Just a funny fact... for some... XD
-
That may all be true, but being a SPACE cab driver, do you really think Earth price would be considered?
If we were in contact with aliens I'm sure a Universal price would be set for each product don't you think?
-

No... Why no? Because if we don't do that here in Earth with other countries (humans)... why should we do it with with Aliens... XD
That may all be true, but being a SPACE cab driver, do you really think Earth price would be considered?
You may have a point there... besides why did he chose the Oil??? Do the aliens travel through the universe in 4.2 V8 UFO??? XD
With all that technology why do they need Oil??? To drink it or maybe swim on it. ;D
