I don't think the person who went to the trouble of assembling an entire library of Lum pictures and cropping/resizing them for avatar use, only to then spend upwards of $100 giving random people Lum avatars, is doing it out of malice, bitterness, or a desire to own the anime forum.

Mods have no way of tracking who bought what avatar for whoever else. The queue only lists mod-granted avatars.

If you put your avatar under your pillow tonight, the Lum Fairy will visit and grant you a Lum.

It puzzles me that it'd be Urusei Yatsura, though. I mean, okay sure, influential series in the late '80s, early '90s and all, but there hasn't been anything new going on for UY in what, seven eight years? And that had been a one off OVA that was the first new thing in twelve years. It's like, why Lum, and why now?

Yeah. I mean Lum may be anime as hell but someone looking to take the piss would have used mountains of borderline-hentai-that's-just-within-the-rules or weird fetish fuel or whatever. I really don't need to tell any of you how much creepier it gets than Lum. If someone really wants to spend $100+ bucks on Lum pics I can't say I'm all that outraged.

Rumiko Takahashi got to be the best selling female manga author of all time and one of the richest women in Japan by writing things that weren't very good.

She also wrote a lot of the standard plot devices and formulas that every other romcom today copies or is inspired by to some degree.

Ranma is a good read, not much reason to watch the show though. Rinne's a good show but I didn't read anything but the first chapter of the manga. Inuyasha shouldn't exist.
