How to Watch Urusei Yatsura Season 2

Produced by David Production and featuring a returning staff and cast from the first season, Urusei Yatsura Season 2 is now streaming its new episodes streaming exclusively with HIDIVE. Listed as Urusei Yatsura and the Iconic Invader Girl Lum, the new episodes will be available as soon as they hit in Japan. As for what to expect from this new take on the classic franchise, HIDIVE teases the Urusei Yatsura reboot as such:

“When an alien race known as the Oni invade Earth, the chronically unlucky and unapologetically lecherous Ataru Moroboshi is selected as humanity’s representative in a duel for the fate of the planet! His opponent is Lum, the Oni’s very pretty princess, and it’s only thanks to Ataru’s unscrupulous behavior that he’s able to scrape out a win in a treacherous game of tag against her. Ataru thinks he’s had his lucky break at last, but when Lum takes a shine to him off the battlefield, the conflict follows him home as Lum invades not only planet Earth, but also the womanizing Ataru’s love life!”
