Did anyone notice that the beach hotel that the boy with the box walked by happens to be named Hotel Ikkoku (ホテル一刻)? :D

Top to bottom a great episode and im not talking about the great swimsuit designs. The gag with seeing the men as vegetables was great. The scene where they were peeping on the nurse was romantic and hilarious. I knew poochi was not going to be a dog but I did not expect the old man to be in the box. The ending with the kid taking in the water yokai was sweet and really brought this episode together. Every week this show does a great job feeling fresh and surprising.

No fricking way, they actually did it.
Not just Pool but also Beach in the same episode.

"It's because you're so cray-sea." Heh.

I mostly just felt bad for the little pool dude. He's just minding his own business, he doesn't like bothering people or being bothered, and he's just constantly getting kicked out of his home. Feels bad man. That Pochi subplot had me on the edge of my seat, but at least in the end it was a happy ending.

Swimsuit service......Ya know I would have prefer if Lum would don a bikini ( a different kind that is} rather than a one piece Mallot.

One-piece swimsuits seriously need to make a comeback in anime. They are so underappreciated.

I really like old action focused anime, but when it comes to rom com this show feels so strange and outdated.

The cast is there to create a funny remake, but so far Urusei Yatsura (2022) has been incredible lackluster, it has no impact so far.
I won't say anything bad about Lum, she is really nice and all. This one has 20+ episodes, I have hopes that it will get more interesting within the next ten episodes.

since ive watched a little of the original i was confused w the nurses bf part. is he the same guy that tried to win her over by trying to summon satan and the pace of this is just way faster/skipped that or is that a diff guy?

also that little kid that took in pochi looked like a young ataru which made me think there was some plot i missed about time traveling. loved the one piece reference tho.

It's the same guy (Tsubame), but that specific episode hasn't been included in the remake, only OG manga and anime. Maybe later ? Unlikely though.

Lum's one-piece covers more than her usual clothes

Swimsuit Sakura was the highlight of this beach ep
Yes to both. The Lum thing is ironic considering that the more she covers, the more beautiful she looks.

And Sakura eating always cracks me up

I loved this episode, because it focuses on the little sea creature. I hope he gets one or two more episodes, in this new adaptation! 5/5

Awesome on expanding the verse and saying to the audience that all the side characters aren't one off. They all live in the same universe and the episodes only highlight the significant interactions, not just the day to day.
