Story
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!
