Synopsis
Relive the acclaimed romantic comedy about an unlucky human boy who meets a beautiful alien space princess in this large-format edition with never-before-seen translations and new cover designs. In the series, Ataru Moroboshi's supernatural encounters with the female sex begin when he is chosen to play tag with an alien princess named Lum, who invades Earth in her spaceship. Ataru has ten days to blow Lum's horns, or aliens will take over Earth! As it turns out, the game of tag is just the beginning of Ataru's troubles, as he continues to attract strange encounters with otherworldly beings, such as the beautiful snow spirit Oyuki and the attractive raven goblin Princess Kurama!
Takahiro Kamei (episode director on Strike Witches: Road to Berlin, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind) is serving as series director. Masaru Yokoyama (Horimiya, Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, 2019's Fruits Basket) is composing the music.
