Yuku free message boards

I was born in the year of 1981. At that time Urusei Yatsura had been already released and its producers had succeeded in the adaptation into anime. I don't remember when I first met UY, but I can say that I already knew about UY on TV when I was a very small child who had not learnt reading and writing yet. Even though UY was reaired several times and I watched it until I knew how stories would evolve before they actually did on TV whenever I watched reaired episodes, I was not so attracted by the Takahashi's masterpiece for a long time. Recently I have noticed why such a weird thing happened. The answer is simple. Her masterpiece UY contains too difficult factors for infants to understand; e.g. love relationships, cultural knowledge, lots of multi-meaning word plays.

So from the late '80s to early '90s my attention was paid mainly to such serials as "The Shonen Jump" ran; "Dragonball," "Yu Yu Hakusho" etc. rather than Rumic World. But in those days I also enjoyed many anime such as "Kingyo Chuihou," "Sailor Moon," "V Gundam" etc. on TV. Among them there was an anime whose characters look like those of UY. That was "Ranma 1/2." I actually watched all the first 18 episodes when first aired in 1989. For some reason the airing was cancelled out and restarted with the title of "Nettohen" later. Unfortunately then I was not aware of restarting of Ranma1/2 but I kept the notable anime in my mind for years to come.

In 1996 I happened to watch the TV show "Tetsuko no heya" and the guest was a woman on that day. I did not pay attention to her so much but for some reason I kept watching the program. In the course of their conversation, I found that she was a voice actress and some of characters she had played were introduced one after another. Among them was female Ranma. On that day I met Ranma for the first time in 8 years. The voice actress was Megumi Hayashibara But at that time I did not have opportunity of watching Ranma anymore.

But in 1998 I accidentally watched "Ranma 1/2" reaired and at last I found that was very funny and interesting. Because by that time I had grown up and felt that manga which Jump carries are childish and violent, I was absorbed in Ranma. I watched reaired Ranma everyday but the program came to an end soon. Again my life was free from Ranma.

Around the year of 2000, I had difficulty in passing universities entrance exams. To tell the truth I went through the pity life of ronin like Yusaku Godai. Even after I succeeded in entering a college, I don't want to see the status of ronin. I had a chance of watching Maison Ikkoku on TV, but I watched only part of first episode. I could not bear to see Yusaku suffering in the "pity life." But I have ever watched only its kanketsuhen on TV in the middle of night.

Only in recent years have I found the Rumic World site on the net, and I rediscover how enjoyable the Rumic World is.
