the characters are poor

When referring to the third film I meant that the characters that appear exclusively in that film are poor.Namely Ruu & Lahla.

I really don't think that the plots in the movies are that good. I do however very much enjoy the plots in the TV series and the manga.

Almost every movie has a scene where Ataru somehow expresses his feelings for Lum and I think that's one of the things that makes UY movies special.

I recommended UY to a friend of mine and she said she liked it but dropped it. -.-
I told her to watch the first episodes. Aw well... Nobody's perfect. xD

That' probably would of happened to me to if I watched ANY movie first. I started on episode 1, and just got addicted to it from there on.

The problem with watching the movies first is, to a new viewer, there are all of these random characters everywhere, and they have no idea who there are. The TV show actually introduced them into the franchise properly. So I can see why the movies would be kinda "different" to a none-UY fan.

Might suggest reading the character profiles and story synopses on this and other UY fansites. Helped hook me.

That's obvious since the Movies are longer episodes but with its storyline more developed. In order to understand the movie, one would have to watch a few episodes first.

Also, I didn't show her ANY movie, I showed her the EPISODES!!!

Oh I see. I thought you were... Nevermind lol! xD

So anyways I think we would all agree that showing the episodes is the best way to make someone crazy for UY.

How come when someone misunderstands my comment, there is an uproar but when I correct them, no one reacts?
