Overview

A sci-fi romantic comedy manga and anime by Rumiko Takahashi, one of Japan's most successful manga creators, that launched her prolific career. It centers on the chaotic relationship between alien princess Lum, who wears a tiger-striped bikini and can fly and shoot electricity, and the incorrigibly lecherous high schooler Ataru Moroboshi. The TV anime directed by Mamoru Oshii featured groundbreaking visual experimentation, and the film 'Beautiful Dreamer' is considered a landmark of anime cinema. The series pioneered many tropes that would become staples of the romantic comedy genre in manga and anime. A 2022 remake by David Production introduced the beloved series to a new generation of fans worldwide.
