*Blinks* Wow, How The Hell Did That Happen?

Cool! And in celebration, a fairly recent "Inu Yasha/Rinne" era Takahashi drawing of Lum!

Thanks! I'd just been wondering what the UY characters would look like as drawn by the Takahashi of today...

Cool! Her hair's a bit wilder looking in this modern version. Now if only she had made it in color. Ah well.

She probably did, but only the folks who got the limited edition of the new Urusei Yatsura collection (in Japan, circa... 2007?) got to see it in color.

It's part of a feature in the new collection called "My Lum" which has several mangaka's interpretations of Lum. The first two were Takahashi
herself and the lead character designer for the original Anime, There were pieces, IIRC, from the artist from Keroro Gunso/Sgt. Frog, and Ohta from Hellsing,
amongst others.
