I revised my previous list.

1. Happy Birthday, My Darling! - My favorite episode of all time. Ataru wishes to be rid of Lum for his birthday. He spends the entire day avoiding her until a meeting during a rainstorm when he's happy to see her. I absolutely love the ending scene of this episode. It makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside. With its establishing shots and quiet, tender moments, this episode is a must-see for all UY fans.

2. Darling's Dying?! - Ataru accidentally eats one of Ran's special cupcakes. Needless to say, Ran's cooking turns out to be every bit as toxic as Lum's. As Ataru lays dying in bed, Lum sets out to find Ran who is the only one that could provide an antidote. This episode, which parodies "Alice in Wonderland" very loosely, has a lot of sly in-jokes. Lum also encounters Ogami and Daigoro Itto from the Samurai movie classic "Lone Wolf and Cub", and a giant Zaku. The most imaginative scene is where Lum meets the Red Queen (here presented as a Sumo wrestler) who challenges Lum to a round of golf (instead of a croquet tournament). In the original "Alice in Wonderland" the Queen's guards were man-sized playing cards; here they're fusama room dividers. The saddest part of the episode is when we see Lum crying after learning that Ataru has "died" (he really hasn't).

3. Pitter Patter Christmas Eve - One of my personal favorites. Lum, using her ingenuity, manages to foil the Stormtroopers' attempt to humiliate Ataru in public. The ending is not to be missed, as Lum and Ataru's relationship takes a great leap forward.

4. Lum's Class Party - This episode really shows how Ataru can be very nice to Lum when he wants to be. Just when Lum thinks she's all alone, Ataru reveals a surprise party to her. The ending is very cute, especially with Rei wolfing down bowls of ramen at an incredible speed.

5. Panic in a Typhoon - The Moroboshis board up their house as a typhoon approaches, but that doesn't stop the house from flooding. The most memorable and heartwarming scene is when Ataru saves Lum from drowning.

6. Steal Darling! The Copy Operation! - This is one wacky episode! In order to prevent Ran from stealing Ataru from her, she creates a clone of him. Unfortunately, Ataru and his clone tie her up so that they can go on their dates with Ran and Shinobu. Chaos ensues as Lum and Ran continuously create clones of Ataru until there is a stampede of Atarus. The funniest part is when Ran shouts, "Daaaaaarliiiiing!!!" as she runs after Lum and Ataru. All the while, a stampede of Ataru clones is chasing after Ran. The other funny part is when Lum gets trampled by the Ataru stampede and says, "I'm beat!".

7. Lum's Educational Therapy for Little Boys - I really enjoyed this episode! Lum travels back to a time when Ataru was still a first grader in the hopes that she can retrain him using a Lum doll that shocks him whenever he touches any girl other than her. But when the Ataru from the present finds his way back to the past, he puts a dent in Lum's plan. This episode is great because we get to see how Ataru, Shinobu, the Stormtroopers, and Sakura looked when they were younger. The scenes in which Lum spends time with little Ataru are very cute, as they show Lum's more caring and tender side.

8. The Mendo Family Masked Ball - Ryoko invites Ataru over for a masquerade and Mendo gets a billion others to also show up for a masquerade battle. Ataru tries desperately to get to Ryoko despite the attempts of Lum, Mendo, and others. This episode is one reason why Asami Endo is my favorite animation director in the entire series. She can make a hilarious episode even when the characters are wearing expressionless masks.

9. Lum-chan's Great Year-End Celebration! - Lum brings two dimensional doors to class that take the students to a crazy fictional world where they temporarily forget themselves and take new identities. Mendo becomes Sherlock Holmes, Kakugari becomes Watson, Ataru becomes Zenigata Heiji, and Lum becomes a very sexy genie (me like!). Ataru and Mendo find Onsen-Mark and try to help him remember who he is. The best part is when Lum keeps misinterpreting Ataru's wishes.

10. Lum and Ataru, A Night Alone - Mr. & Mrs. Moroboshi win a trip for a weekend and leave Ataru and Lum alone for the first time. Ataru tries desperately to seek sanctuary elsewhere, but Lum gets him home and cooks dinner. Mendo, Megane, and Lum's Stormtroopers try to keep the two apart, but Lum and Ataru manage to get rid of them. By then it's time for bed.  The best part is the infamous Star Wars parody. I also like the part where Mendo and the Stormtroopers burst into Ataru's bedroom and accidently run straight out the window, which Lum had opened for just that reason. Gotta love Lum and that clever mind of hers!

He is just a cocky actor. Wrestling is 100% fake... I prefer to see real fight.
It's just a fighting-novella.

Everyone knows wrestling is fake, but what does that matter??
When I watch it, I just imagine it's real...

I hate when my mom passes my room and says it's all fake...Ruins the atmosphere. xD
