The girl just wants a bra and instead ends up being a pervert with a bra fetish LOL
This episode Ryuunosuke reminded me so much of Ranma, even the part where she and Shinobu were being photographed gave me Ranma x Akane vibes :)

Episode's balancing on the line between funny and creepy with that deranged Ryunnosuke's dad. It seems that he's just one thought before cutting her breasts off.

I kinda like Ryuunosuke's dad, I feel anybody happy that their daughter is on a date with another girl can't be a bad person.

I think a theme of Urusei Yatsura is a pessimistic view of gender relations. Can Ataru stop thinking about himself for even 5 seconds?

I interpreted the use of "hentai" in this context to be a shorthand for "lesbian," especially when Ryuunosuke and Shinobu are talking to each other, but before reading the comments I didn't think about it just meaning "bra fetishist"...

"It felt like eternity....
waiting until today."

- 05:45 "Yeah...I'm gonna buy one today...."
- 06:25 "You wanna know exactly what that unworldly beautiful thing is?"
- 10:12 "Ok, SHINOBU.... why don't we go home & take a bath together or something?"
- 07:10 "Prohibited Underwear! my ass!"
- 12:05 "These are Boobs, not Boo-boos!"
- 22:58 A sudden assault!
-----------------
- 15:00 "RYUUNOSUKE, pray for your mother before you leave."
"Which one is my Mom?"
"Like, you know, whichever one you like..."
-----------------
Lol, RYUUNOSUKE's father have been fooling him all this time. :)
Even during sleep, RYUUNOSUKE got fooled continuously. :)
- The best part is when RYUUNOSUKE make his demand to father, & his father immediately goes to sleep.
"You Bastard!"
------------------
- 17:32 Front-Hook?!
RYUUNOSUKE best chance was to ask ATARU from the beginning.
-------------------
- 22:05
"A red loincloth - the soul of a true Japanese boy."
RYUUNOSUKE's dad is hard to get through. Unfortunate Girl!
- 22:25
"I wonder if the Bra has reached your mother in heaven..."
"Honey! Here's a Front-Hook for you!"

Another episode that absolutely wouldn't fly today without some serious rewrites. 

I wonder if the Remake will attempt to readapt stories like this one. 

I like how this episode focuses almost entirely on Shinobu and Ryuu-chan. Ryuunosuke pretty much became a main character shortly after she was introduced to the story when you consider how many stories she got focused on her. It makes me think Rumiko Takahashi was toying with the idea of Ranma 1/2 while she was still writing Urusei Yatsura (and Maison Ikkoku). If she started drawing manga just a few years later Urusei Yatsura might've been about Ryuunosuke instead of Ataru and Lum and Ranma 1/2 might not even exist, which is almost scary to think about.

Ryuunosuke episodes are seriously the funniest. Buraja!


And her dad ain't that bad. You can pick your favorite mom and he supports real yuri.

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

I saw this one in the remake first and it was great there but I think it’s clear this one is better, the remake cut out Ryuunosuke’s dad entirely and also didn’t have that crisp beginning bit, not to mention the Shinobu fanservice at the very end lol. Seeing this one fleshed out really made it for me, one of the best Ryuunosuke episodes and one of my favorite episodes of the series for sure.

I also gotta mention how nice Shinobu’s date outfit was, she didn’t need to go that hard but she did lol.

Poor Ryunosuke just can't get a break! Any episode with her and her dad together is gold imho.
