Urusei Yatsura

Studio Tour 10 – Lum/Aimee

I wanted to draw these two characters together for a while. Aimee Brightower is one of two protagonists in Galaxy High, who I drew back in 2015. Lum is the female lead of Urusei Yatsura, who I drew on commission in 2020. Both girls were in the 1 Club prior to this pic, but I wanted to pair them with each other rather than more popular characters like I do for that series. So, instead, I dusted off the Studio Tour series for the first time in a while. Urusei Yatsura and Galaxy High have an interesting history together. Urusei Yatsura was extremely popular in its day (and has a new series airing right now, though I haven’t watched it yet), and Shinsha was tasked with creating a similar series for the western market, since importing anime was rare back then. They created Galaxy High, and inverted the “alien girl in human school” premise to “human boy and girl go to alien school”. They also traced some animation from UY for GH, including the last shot of the opening credits where Aimee looks a lot more like Lum than usual.

Oni New Year 2

Here’s a commission! This one was from the same Epic Tier supporter who commissioned last year’s “Oni New Year” pic. By the time this goes public it’ll be February, but that’s okay, right? The client wanted two cute oni characters being fucked by the two massive ogre guards Goku encounters in early DBZ (and we used the censored “HFIL” shirts instead of their proper “HELL” shirts for fun). The girl is Lum from Urusei Yatsura, whole the boy is the Saike Demon from Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn.
