The story follows an ordinary high school student Ataru Moroboshi who is quite an unlucky and girl-crazy man. The earth seemed to be threatened by an alien raider from Oni.
Ataru is chosen to have a duel with them to represent humanity. His opponent was a girl named Lum, the daughter of Oni’s leader.
Ataru is no match for lum yet he manages to win by stealing Lum’s bikini.
However, misfortune doesn’t leave Ataru as Lum mistook Ataru’s promise to marry his girlfriend, Shinobu Miyake, as Ataru asking for her (lum’s) hand.
Lum accepts his offer on live television and with all the miscommunication and misunderstanding she falls in love with Ataru and moves in with him. She even tends to attend the same school as Ataru.
