Clearly Ataru is once again in a place where hes taking Lums affection for him for granted.
In short, he made a very silly and shortsighted deal with someone from the Darkness dimension.
However, due to the darkness mans advanced age, he instead betrothed Lum tohisgreat-granson,Rupa.
This, despite the fact she only just learned about all this and didnt agree to marry anyone.
Theres also the matter of admitting he doesnt like the prospect of Lum being with anyone else.
And say what you want about Ataru most of the time, hedoescare for Lum.
I dont think its a question of whether hell take action to get her back.
That said, Im sure this wont get resolved next week, as three episodes remain.
Only thing to do is see how this plays out.
