Rumiko Takahashi has even released a new visual which shows Lum and Ataru together. While it’s not the best visual, its rawness speaks to many fans.

This announcement is like a great start to a New Year. 2022 will cure us of some of our much-needed 80s nostalgia when anime were plain and good and the city-pop OSTs were amazing. 

However, the anime will not cover all the 300+ chapters published. They’ll cover only some arbitrarily selected parts of the manga.
