LatestWith the fate of the Earth on the line again, Lum and Ataru’s last game of tag begins.
Tokyo, Tomobiki Town. Lum, the gorgeous princess of the invading alien race of Oni is smitten with high school student Ataru Moroboshi. A dedicated womanizer, Ataru is unfazed by Lum’s fierce electric shock attacks and continues his daily hunt for pretty girls. With a host of other unique characters, including girl-next-door Shinobu, elegant shrine maiden Sakura, Lum’s best friends Oyuki, Benten, and Ran, Buddhist Monk Cherry, Ten, the little brat, heir to a wealthy family Shutaro Mendo and the masculine beauty Ryunosuke…it's a classic slapstick love comedy where anything goes!

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 2022 reboot deliberately adapts select manga chapters, skipping the 1981 anime's original filler arcs entirely.
Sumire Uesaka (Lum) specifically auditioned because her mother was a diehard 1981 anime fan—multigenerational weeb legacy achieved.
