Hi! Has anyone here watched both the original Urusei Yatsura from 1981 and the remake from 2022? How do the two compare? I'm curious to hear about impressions and opinions.

I have been re-listening to the soundtrack of the original series, and many scenes came suddenly to mind. It was absolutely hilarious; I could compare it with Konosuba, but with ten times more craziness...

I watched the 1st season (remake) and a few episodes of the original.

The new looks like a compressed version. Some newer eps have stuff that happens in two episodes in the original but keeping it as a single episode (not like 2 in 1 episodes).
The artstyle is different
The humor was updated but I'd say similar.

It feels like how the total content compares between a manga and the anime adaption (meaning some stuff or stories were cut)
