Frequently Asked Questions
Is Urusei Yatsura: The Final Chapter really the end of the story?
Despite the title, it's not a true series finale in a narrative sense — the manga and later specials continued the story — but it was intended as a climactic theatrical send-off for the franchise's original TV-era cast and staff.
