Urusei Yatsura: Nagisa's Fiance

ウルセイヤツラナギサノフィアンセ

Aired: 1988

The second OVA based on Rumiko Takahashi's SF romantic-comedy manga. Adapting an original episode left untouched by the television series, it depicts a chain of misunderstandings and runaway antics surrounding the seaside childhood friend Nagisa, blending the franchise's signature slapstick with a wistful atmosphere in a fine balance. With the returning television cast's banter and the medley-style theme song, the work occupies a key transitional spot in the saga of the Urusei Yatsura franchise as the late-1980s era drew to a close.
