Title: Does anyone here actually like the first opening of Urusei Yatsura?

Lum No Love Song

I think the opening Lum No Love song is poor. I don't know why they stuck with it for 77 episodes when they had endings that were so much better like Kokorobosoina and I, I, You and Ai. I thought the visuals were even worse than the song.

The other songs were certainly better than Lum No Love Song, I think they should have introduced a second opening much sooner in the anime. The song isn't great but what really showed it up was the bad animation sequence. If you are not convinced just watch Lum No Love Song and compare the visual to Dancing Star and Pajama jama da.

Honestly, I must have watch the first opening video dozens of times in a row.

I wouldn't watch the other two videos that often though.

I like it. I think it's a little bit daffy (as songs go), but I like it.

Are we talking about the song, the video or both?

Good point. I think that a lot of what I like about Lum no Love Song is that it's the opening theme to the series. In other words, it's not the song itself but what it represents (the beginning of another episode of my favorite high-school class) which I like the most.

Video: the only thing I don't like are the pink scenes. Lum is green and yellow (LoL) not pink. xD

Song: I like it. Of course there are tons of other Anime songs that I would rather listen to but I still like it.

If I remember correctly, that was the only intro we had when the show aired here in Portugal some years ago. Guess they were lazy to sub the other episodes. xD

It might be because of that, but yeah, I like it. :P

Video: the only thing I don't like are the link scenes. Lum is green and yellow (LoL) not pink. xD

It's not that they colored her pink, I believe its more like a red/pinkish shade is over the entire character. Her skin isn't flesh color either, its also pink so that proves my point.

I was going to say the entire frame (background included) was pink, But I figured someone would make the argument that Ataru pops in in color.

Anyways bottom line is that the frame was pink, they didn't use the wrong colors for her.

It's not the opening I like the most, but yes, I like it! :P
The song is nice and today is one of the most famous jingle about UY!
The video is good, and we must remember it was made in 1981!
Lum's face in that video is wonderful, especially in the "pink" scenes! *_*
