Synopsis
Relive the acclaimed romantic comedy about a down-on-his-luck human boy who meets a beautiful alien princess from outer space in this large-format edition featuring all-new translations and new cover designs. In the series, Ataru Moroboshi's supernatural encounters with the female sex begin when he's chosen to play tag with an alien princess named Lum, who invades Earth in her spaceship. Ataru has ten days to touch Lum's horns, or the 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 alluring crow goblin Princess Kurama!
Takahiro Kamei (episode director for 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.
