It was pretty neat seeing all those old characters again.

A side of Lum we haven't seen before. Given how social she is, it's not really that surprising that apparently being ignored would get to her so much.

Kind of self-indulgent, but it was neat seeing them again.

That's what I call a class reunion! Overall very fun ep! Felt a little bad for Lum being kept out of the secret, but it all turned out okay :)

Quite the lovely episode! I really loved that ending and the Cosmic Cycler song is really catchy!

Seems like Ataru really starts to care for Lum, I bet in the past he wouldn't even care about giving a party for Lum.

So the last episode was allegedly voted the best episode of the entire television series, not counting the movies. As of then, I felt like every time we'd see character progression in Ataaru, he'd always revert to his selfishness in the next episode. Having said that, it was interesting see Atarau acting nicely toward Lum in this episode, almost as a continuation of the last episode.

He was never particularly mean to her, and was shown to console her on multiple occasions. He was genuinely angry at Mendo for refusing to host a party location. He was especially nice to Lum during the final quarter of the episode, but it was interesting seeing his lack of selfishness throughout the entirety of the episode. I've learned that character progression in this show probably isn't permanent, although I hear some people attest that Ataru truly does become a better character toward the end of the series.

Side note, it was interesting seeing Lum get offended to the point of crying. It reminded me that she's an actual kid, still. I'm well aware that girls her age often get into draama when they're excluded from a get-together.

Ten moves better than Ataru lmao

This episode effectively displayed one of the strenghts of long running episodic anime. Was very fun to see all these characters again and at once. Stark contrast to the lonely feeling just one episode ago.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

You don’t really take in how many one-off characters are in a show like this until you put them all in the same room together lol, that was really sweet. I kinda felt like Lum here at the end, I’ve been watching this show off and on this year since January and it really felt like a reunion to me as well, seeing all these characters again and remembering their respective episodes and how long ago it was, definitely very wholesome not just for Lum, but for the viewers as well. It was also nice to see some of my favorites babes of the series again, I definitely missed Benten and Oyuki.

We also got to see Ataru being nice again in this one so that’s good to see right after last episode. And I don’t mind hearing Cosmic Cycler twice in a row in this episode lol.

I was really sorry for Lum when she started crying and then when she was left alone in the classroom. But as said, she has very good friends
