- Urusei Yatsura Cour 3 (HIDIVE Exclusive)
New Simulcast Episodes Throughout February
Last year’s iconic invader girl Lum returns for the two-part Season 2 of the sci-fi romcom Urusei Yatsura. The first part (Cour 3) of this exciting second season streams exclusively this winter on HIDIVE with new simulcast episodes every Thursday. 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! Produced by David Production, Urusei Yatsura is co-directed by Hideya Takahashi and Yasuhiro Kimura with writing by Yuko Kakihara. Streaming in Japanese with English Subtitles.

Although not terribly bothered by the thought of dying, he reluctantly decides to protect his lone companion. After all, a lowly Level 1000 monster doesn’t stand a chance against his secret power to invoke Instant Death with a single thought! If he can stay awake long enough to bother using it, that is… Produced by Okuruto Noboru, My Instant Death Ability is Overpowered is directed by Masakazu Hishida and written by Yuzuru Aoba.
