In the 33rd episode of the anime Urusei Yatsura, which has been airing since March 14th, Ataru Moroboshi (CV: Hiroshi Kamiya) is given a half-knitted sweater by the ghost Nozomi (CV: Manaka Iwami). Although her season was summer, Ataru went on a date wearing a gift from her. His concern for her wishes drew many reactions, with comments such as He’s a good guy” and I like this kind of thing.
The anime “Urusei Yatsura” is based on the debut work of Rumiko Takahashi , a famous manga artist who has created many hit works. To commemorate Shogakukan’s 100th anniversary, it will be made into a TV anime over four seasons starting in October 2022. This is a slapstick love comedy about Ram (CV: Sumire Uesaka ), a beautiful demon girl who falls in love with Ataru, whose hobby is girl hunting.
In the 32nd episode of the previous broadcast, Ataru and his friends were being chased by members of the “Fate Manufacturing Control Bureau.” The angry members of the Fate Manufacturing Control Bureau tried to erase the futures of countless Ataru and others. Then, Ataru found a future where he and Ram would marry. When Ataru saw a happy future Ram in a wedding dress, she desperately tried to protect that future.
Ataru is always on the run from Ram and is busy hunting girls. Seeing him try to protect Ram’s happiness, many viewers were moved by comments such as I cried a little,” That’s the way it is,” and “You did your best.”
In the latest episode, Episode 33, “Ayakashi no Mendo/Last Date,” a ghost, Nozomi, who died while still having feelings for Ataru, appeared. Sakura (voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro) asks Ataru if he would be willing to go on a date with Nozomi to help her achieve Buddhahood.
When Ataru meets Nozomi, she has prepared hand-knitted scarves and hats for Ataru. Nozomi also presents her with a sweater that she was in the process of knitting. It was summer, and Ataru didn’t even want to wear a shirt, so he tried to run away. However, when Nozomi says, “You don’t have to force me to wear this. It’s because I’m still knitting it…I died in the process.” Ataru wears the sweater he received and starts the date.
Viewers praised Ataru’s kind actions, saying, “He’s such a nice guy…” “I like this part of him. It’s nice to dress him up. This fantastic episode shows how good Ataru is as a person.
