Urusei Yatsura Season 2 Episode 9 Review and Recap – Shinobu’s Mundane Dream
Today again, we witnessed an interesting episode where we get the ultimate proof of Ataru’s love for Lum. Ataru has always been someone who can do anything to get girls. And this time, we are talking about a harem where he can get every girl he wants plus more.
On top of that, we see how this future is very much possible, and it is not at all just a dream. Ataru does come in contact with a gate inside which he sees the harem he always wanted, but it came with a tragic sacrifice. If Ataru is willing to pay the price, he can have his dream harem, but if he cannot, then he will have to let go of that plan.
But it is not just Ataru whose dreams can become a reality. Lum’s dream of marryong her daring also comes to life. However, it faces a grave challenge, and if Ataru does not do something about it, it can cease to exist.
Even Shinobu gets to peek at her ideal future, but sadly, towards the end, she loses a connection to someone which could have been something more.
Today’s episode was really nice and had many emotional moments, along with funny bits. Ataru does come to realise what he actually wants and what he must do to protect his true ideal future. He definitely becomes more mature in this episode than he ever was, but whether that maturity will last or not is something that we must see in the future episodes.
Not to mention, we also get another funny short piece at the end of the ending theme where the sensei, this time, goes to visit Shinobu’s house. He thought that this time, he might have a different experience than he already had while conducting a meeting with parents, but things do not go as planned.
Verdict
I like this episode a lot because we take a break from the random comedy scenes and focus more on the relationships between the main leads. We see how Ataru is not a bad guy but is someone who just can not help himself, being a hopeless pervert. But I believe if somebody can change him for the better, it is Lum, and hopefully, a day will come where we will see these two genuinely together. From the next week we will see another new story.
