Why does Lum love Ataru?
Well a woman’s feelings are a mysterious thing. Only Lum could explain why. Still, there are many reasons that become obvious over the series. One is that Lum sees through Ataru’s affectations and knows that he is really a good natured person. A good soul is something that Lum seems to prize over everything else. Also Lum seems to only like men with interesting personalities, which accurately describes Ataru. Early on in the show Ataru is obviously a clutzy loser, but as the series progresses, he actually becomes a pretty cool dude. Maybe Lum was also attracted to this potential coolness he posessed. But this is still speculation because for the most part it’s a complete mystery.
