The Urusei Yatsura story comes to a climax in this animated retelling of the final Manga story (although not the final movie). Lupa, yet another one of Lum's fiancés, arrives on the scene, and Lum and Ataru have to repeat their game of tag in order to prevent the Earth from being destroyed.
All Ataru has to do to win is say "I love you" the three words he has steadfastly refused to say to Lum. Will he admit his true feelings and save the Earth? Or will his pride doom it to destruction?

Where it came from
Released in 1988, Urusei Yatsura: The Final Chapter serves as the fifth theatrical feature film based on Rumiko Takahashi's beloved manga series. Produced by Kitty Film during the peak of the franchise's popularity, the movie was intended to provide a conclusive narrative arc for the chaotic relationship between Ataru Moroboshi and the alien princess Lum. It captures the transition of the late eighties anime aesthetic, leaning into a more atmospheric and emotionally resonant tone compared to the slapstick episodic nature of the television series.
The film was directed by Satoshi Dezaki, who sought to balance the series' signature zaniness with a definitive, slightly melancholic sense of closure. The visual design reflects the studio's desire to honor the original character work of the manga while utilizing the elevated production values typical of the era's feature films. Upon release, it was received as a bittersweet farewell to the characters, widely recognized by fans and critics for successfully grounding the high-concept premise in a sincere final encounter.
