Invader Girl Lum is back, bringing with her an eclectic cast of characters. Ataru Moroboshi is an incredible unlucky young man, and that continues when a fleet of alien invaders known as the Oni threaten planet Earth. With Ataru selected to represent humanity in a duel, he must go up against Lum in a game of tag. Suddenly, his luck turns, when he claims victory.
This stroke of luck doesn’t last, however, as when Ataru makes a promise to marry his girlfriend, Lum mistakes it as a plea to marry her. She likes the idea and uses her influence to move in with him. Ataru must learn to keep both his girlfriend and Lum happy, but that is easier said than done – especially for a man like Ataru who flirts with every girl he’s given the opportunity to talk to!
Urusei Yatsura has been confirmed to have 12 episodes, which will release every Thursday up until the season 1 finale at the end of December. After episode 1, the new installments will come to HiDive 50 minutes earlier than the debut.
