CiSTM said:Now watching Urusei Yatsura. I am having really hard time to get in to it. Well I hope it's get better than this but then again I'm only at episode 15.
I'm actually around 160 or so episodes into it, and the 40s were when I found myself starting to really like the show. Yeah, I know people usually say somebody quits JUST BEFORE it got good and it really doesn't, but I also found the start of the show to be really slow and I actually put the show aside after watching 30 something episodes a year or two ago. I'm now rather glad I came back to it.Shirokun said:Ehh...I watched about 40 episodes, and it doesn't really change a whole lot. I'd just stop watching while you're ahead, track down a copy of the amazing Urusei Yatsutra: Beautiful Dreamers, and be done with it.

And jump on Maison Ikkoku if you haven't already. It's Takahashi's best work.

I saw it as a young kid living in Montreal. It was on a french channel and was a sci fi about this race of people who lived and could breathe underwater. The surface world was mostly covered by water, but there were some floating cities still left. A girl from the underwater race went to the surface world and was eventually captured. The one scene that sticks out is she's in a tube in front of an audience and her captor is trying to convince them she's not human. The tube fills with water and her skin turns blue as she starts breathing water. The ending has the surface humans attacking the underwater people and the girl sacrifices herself to stop it. I don't know if it was a movie or part of a series, but in the past 20 years, I never found out what it was.

In March 2007 Movie Plus Group acquired the rights to the story from NHK and announced that they would be producing a full length feature film reprising the original story, with the intention of looking at a sequel if the film proved successful. The film is slated to enter production in 2008.
