Spotlight On: Lum Cosplayers




by John A. Wilcox

I can hear it. Some of you are saying "Who is Lum?" Lum is a Princess from the Oni planet in the manga & anime series Urusei Yatsura (which means "Those Obnoxious Aliens") by writer / artist Rumiko Takahashi.






Lum loves a boy named Ataru and lives in his closet. She is almost always clad in a tiger striped fur bikini and boots or a traditional Japanese schoolgirl outfit.





As a character, Lum is staggeringly popular worldwide. Cosplayers from every corner of the globe love to dress up as Lum. Some of the cosplayers you see here are from Japan, Italy, the USA, and Russia!






Since 1979, generation after generation have fallen in love with this sexy flying, lightning bolt shooting, bikini-clad adorable alien Princess! Can you blame them?
