More About the Author

The spotlight on Rumiko Takahashi's career began in 1978 when she won an honorable mention in Shogakukan's annual New Comic Artist Contest for Those Selfish Aliens. Later that same year, her boy-meets-alien comedy series, Urusei Yatsura, was serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday. This phenomenally successful manga series was adapted into anime format and spawned a TV series and half a dozen theatrical-release movies, all incredibly popular in their own right. Takahashi followed up the success of her debut series with one blockbuster hit after another--Maison Ikkoku ran from 1980 to 1987, Ranma 1/2 from 1987 to 1996, and Inuyasha from 1996 to 2008. Other notable works include Mermaid Saga, Rumic Theater, and One-Pound Gospel.

Lum and co are back, and this time her bratty little cousin Jariten (Japanese for... Bratty Ten) has posted himself to Earth so he can stay with Lum and her Darling. Ten adds a whole new dynamic to Urusei Yatsura, yes he's a skirt-chasing lech just like Ataru and Mendo, but he's only one year old which means that he can get away with it AND that he's not really very good at it. Once again the art and stories are everything we expect from the always wonderful Rumiko Takahashi, and this is another book you must add to the collection.

This review is from: The Return of Lum * Urusei Yatsura, Vol. 4: Trouble Times Ten (Paperback)

All of the stories are so funny. The Return of Lum Urusel Yatsura series are so funny. I got hooked on them when I was reading Inu-Yasha. Lum the princess who wears skimpy tiger cloths...bikini more like it, is family fun to read. But "Darlings" crave for girls does get annoying. The book is great, but I will let you read it so I don't spoil it for you.
