And we're back to typical territory following Beautiful Dreamer. While the better quality visuals and animation of the second film are retained here (the chase scene with Lum and the mysterious magician making for the best animated sequence of the film), Remember My Love plays out no differently from Only You with introducing an anime-only villain in a flimsy attempt to test the bond between Lum and Ataru before things return to the status quo with our main couple. Unless you're a diehard Urusei Yatsura fan, nothing really amazing to see here.

True, this is not as good as the first two, but it is still a good movie, especially if you compare it to the later Takahashi films produced by Kitty. I like it because it has this nice fantasy feel to it. Sure it is a bit sappy at times, but the different images you encounter make up for it. I especially like the scen where Lum is at the amusement park at night. I also think this film had the best opening credits sequence. You don't see these sequences anymore. I kind of miss them.

It seems each of the Urusei Yatsura movies captures a different element of the series. Only You caught the zany humor; Beautiful Dreamer caught the mildly disquieting surrealism. Remember My Love catches the melancholy, slightly sentimental mood that descends on the series every once in a while, such as in the end-of-summer episodes. It's just a touch bittersweet; for instance, Ataru seems more upset at being a hippo than one might expect. (Of course, the fact that he looks so silly keeps it from getting too sad.) Lum spends a lot of time trapped in a dreamlike world-beyond-the-mirror which also has a melancholy atmosphere. I'd say this is a respectable UY movie. It's not quite up there with the first two, but it's still worthwhile, especially if you like the "end-of-summer" type episodes in the series. Last updated Friday, May 04 2001.
