Episode Summarys

I'm starting to replace the episode lists with the [[Japanese episode list}} template. My original plan was to convert the entire list, then create pages per season (see List of Rurouni Kenshin episodes and List of Rurouni Kenshin episodes (season 1) for examples) but as someone has added a summary somewhat randomly and I've converted half of the list, I thought I might as well update the list with my current progress while I ponder the seperate articles.

Really theres no point creating seperate season pages until there are enough episode summaries, so it would be good if people can write some more. They must be written from scratch and not copied from other websites though!

Error: Lum's mother speaks Japanese this episode when it has been established that she only

speaks in Oni.

- I think every one in the flash backs was really speaking oni, the scenes were just dubed in japanies.--J intela (talk) 10:33, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting

For an anime television series like this, I'm currently updating the episode list as like a quite episode list. You may have noticed that I'm putting the episode's manga compartments in the summaries. Speaking of the summaries, the older summaries would get removed and would be replaced by summaries that would be about 100 to 200 words in length, per WP:TVPLOT. There is of course some possible WP:COPYVIO on the page too, even if in it's own words, may look like an edit of the copyvio summary. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 06:45, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Listing

I know it is four seasons on this page, but according to furinkan.com, there is actually nine seasons. I wanted to update the series overview soon to get closer to the furinkan source.

I DID IT!

After years of hard work, every episode of the OG Urusei Yatsura series now has credits shown! Next up, the OVAs and then everything from the franchise should have their credits shown! BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 18:12, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Season 1 epsiode 21.5 1981 series

Season 1 episode 21.5 is listed as a single episode special with two parts (like most of the rest of season 1)

It seems it might actually be two separate specials both with the title of "It's Spring! Take Off!" Urusei Yatsura Special"

Part 2 is listed as "Grade School Excursion! Run For It!"

Transliteration: "Shūgaku Ryokō! kunoichi yo hashire" (Japanese: 修学旅行！くの一よ走れ).

According to the episode itself, its called "The School Excursion! Run Kunoichi!"

I don't want to make the change myself without having others first confirm. 69.174.155.48 (talk) 18:43, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As another note- it seems a large number of the episodes have very poorly translated English translations. It seems whomever entered them likely used Google Translate instead of the official releases. 69.174.155.48 (talk) 21:48, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
