I'm still waiting for them to discover Ranma, by the same author. Rumiko Takahashi DGAF. She just gets rich.
To be honest, I don't think the "Third Reich Decadent Coffee Shop" was Rumiko Takahashi's idea, I think it can be safely attributed to director Mamoru Oshii. Megane and "Lum's Stormtroopers" originated in an early chapter of Urusei Yatsura but it was really Mamoru Oshii that fleshed the character of Megane into the Wehrmacht military otaku he became, although I know it wouldn't have happened without Rumiko Takahashi's approval but I don't take her approval to be an endorsement of Naziism since Megane's supposed to be creepy (but to be fair to Megane, he's interested in the Wehrmacht from a military tactical perspective, not Nazi philosophy).
Mujaki the dream demon himself was a creation of Rumiko Takahashi but Mamori Oshii took him to the next level of power.
