Synopsis Urusei Yatsura

When aliens known as Oni threaten to invade Earth, they promise to leave under one condition—a randomly chosen human must win a one-on-one match against Lum, the beautiful daughter of the Oni leader.

The “lucky” person chosen happens to be the lustful and unlucky high school student Ataru Moroboshi. Given 10 days to try to seize Lum’s horns, Ataru realizes how impossible the challenge is as he is faced with the power of Lum’s extraterrestrial being.

Motivated by the marriage vows of his childhood friend Shinobu Miyake, Ataru manages to catch Lum off guard. She accidentally grabbed her bikini top first, but she finally achieved her true goal.

Even though the game is over, Lum misunderstands that she is the one Ataru wants to marry, and she decides to move in with him.

The poor student is constantly trying to shake off Lum’s clinging while doing his best to reconcile with the fiancé he desires. After Ataru’s heroic feats yield such disastrous results, it’s questionable whether luck will always be on his side.
