In "One Night's Battle," Nagisa is unable to attain nirvana and ends up staying at Ryunosuke's house. The fact that Nagisa is still there means that they haven't kissed yet, since she can attain nirvana with a kiss. At that time, Ryunosuke's father goes on a hot spring trip with the Hamachaya Cooperative, so Ryunosuke and Nagisa end up spending the night alone together. In "I'll Risk My Life During Class!!," Hot Springs Emblem wants to teach quietly, but he threatens to have extra lessons if anyone says even a word during class. As Ataru and the others reluctantly attend class in silence, Ten bursts in through the window on his potty and attacks Ataru...

``Urusei Yatsura'' is one of the masterpieces of Takahashi, who is also known for `` Maison Ikkoku,'' ``Ranma 1/2,'' and ``Inuyasha.'' Takahashi made her debut with ``Katte na Yatsura'' in 1978, and ``Urusei Yatsura'' was serialized in ``Weekly Shonen Sunday'' (Shogakukan) from 1978 to 1987. The story depicts the daily lives of Ataru Moroboshi, a high school student, and Lum, a demon girl who came to Earth. The TV anime was broadcast on Fuji TV from October 1981 to March 1986.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the founding of Shogakukan, which publishes the work, the new anime will be made into a TV anime in four cours, with selected episodes from the original work. Directed by Hideya Takahashi and Yasuhiro Kimura, who worked on `` JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE : Golden Wind,'' and produced by David Production. The first season was broadcast in two cours from October 2022. The second season has been airing since January.
