Basically, they share the same basic narrative components and tropes: first of all the alien girl with magic-like powers who falls in love with the main character in chapter 1; similar supernatural or science fantasy comedic situations; bizarre adventures; silly inventions; funny aliens; stereotypical characters whose caricatural traits are played straight for fun (like the rich and conceited classmate, or the strange headmaster).

Both romance comedies about a guy and an alien girl who shows up in his life and causes problems for the boy and his romance life. Urusei Yatsura is an oldie but quite hilarious. The protagonists are completely opposite though in their character. The boy Urusei Yatsura is a pervert young man who is a big skirt chaser while the boy in TLRU is a naive and complete innocent when it comes to women.

Both are about a boy meeting a beautiful alien girl from outer space. Both deal with various comedic hijinx of different kinds, including gender swapping, time travel, and supernatural spirits. Urusei Yatsura is less plotty than To-LOVE-Ru, though.
