Title: Important announcement will be announced for fans of Rumiko Takahashi
Post by: trex on March 13, 2017, 04:15:32 AM
The 15th issue of Shonen Sunday magazine announced on March 8 that in the next installment, to be released on March 22nd, an "important announcement" will be announced for fans of Rumiko Takahashi.

Rumiko Takahashi is the creator of Urusei Yatsura. Will it be about Urusei Yatsura? I hope so and it will be good news for everyone. What do you all think?  ;D

I don't know. I tried to find an online copy of Shonen Sunday but couldn't find it or overlooked it.

Did anyone obtain a copy of that issue and cares to inform us?

Sorry about that, I am not sure what it has been. Here is my source: https://www.facebook.com/JUMPNews/photos/a.453674304725127.1073741828.452777524814805/1277960452296504/?type=3&permPage=1

Maybe is this: https://www.facebook.com/JUMPNews/photos/a.453674304725127.1073741828.452777524814805/1286513971441152/?type=3&permPage=1
but the JUMP World said that:
"Es decir dicho anuncio AUN NO SE HA REVELADO y NO ES EL DE ESTE One shot." (That is, this ad has NOT EVEN REVEALED and IS NOT THE ONE OF THIS One shot.)

I'm confused   :'(

After the fact, I'll throw in my 2 Yen.

All of her works are digital now, you can download for such things as Kindle now via Amazon, or view via a browser.

One such place is here - http://csbs.shogakukan.co.jp/book?book_group_id=71

Of note, these are the Tankoban versions, I actually bought them the other night.

I was kind of hoping for a new OVA or something of the sort. It's been about 10 years since the last one, so another anniversary is coming up, right?

Well, in 2018 it'll be 30 years since The Final Chapter was released on Video, and in 2021 it'll be the 40th anniversary of UY as in 1991 it was the 10th. But unless someone(s) can convince Rumiko and company to do something, I don't know if we'll see anything new.

Toshio (Ataru's VA) is 72 and Fumi (Lum's VA) is bordering 62, they're not getting any younger. To boot, Fumi said if she ever can't voice Lum as she has in the past, she won't do it anymore because disappointing her fans would bother her too much. She was at Dallas Animefest 2016 and sang the original opening song for UY - to her credit she sounded very good, but age does take it's toll on vocal cords and Lum has a specific sound to her.
