Summary: Tenchi as ever...
Review: As comical as Tenchi can get.. awesome fight scenes. I'm a big fan of the original series and hate to get mixed up with these alternate timelines, however, this is one of the good ones.

Summary: Tenchi in Tokyo enjoyable for all ages!
Review: I'm sure that those who have been continuosly watching the series will find these episodes both fun, humourous and emotionally interesting. The animation is somewhat disapointing from what Tenchi fans have seen in the OVA series and Tenchi Universe. However the excellent plot and well thought out story lines of these episodes should keep you interested. The first episode Old friends is a continuation of the struggle for the Tenchi Family to reunite after the huge battle caused by Yugi at the Masaki Shrine. This episode shows Mihoshi and Kiyone antics and comedy and has mix of Ryoko's emotional ideas, which creates a great combination. The last episode is exceptional because it shows us the secrets of Sakuya Kumishiro's past, Tenchi's current steady girlfriend, that gives a great lead off into the next dvd, this dvd requires more special features and thankfully includes a scene acess for each of the episodes. If you truly are a Tenchi fan that i'm sure those of you who have been keeping up with the series will enjoy these episodes!

Summary: Romantic, funny... another Tenchi Classic
Review: Of the different continuities in the Tenchi Muyo Anime this is the one I liked the least. Actually, I take that back; "Pretty Sammy" is the worst. I thought I should get the stuff I don't like out of the way. In "Tenchi in Tokyo" the animation is ghetto, and the subject matter seems less mature than the "Tenchi Muyo" and "Tenchi Universe" continuities but there is some stuff here that Toonami, in their cowardice of mature themes, cut from the OAV which you now get to see. Yeah, yeah the art isn't that great; this doesn't make it a bad seires to add to your collection however. In fact, in spite of the drawbacks I've singled out here it's still a great romantic comedy Anime.

All the girls still love Tenchi, and as is the norm in the other Tenchi shows, Ryoko and Ayeka can't stop fighting over him. Now they have even more competition, a cute girl named Sakuya works her way into Tenchi's heart, which makes for tons of hillarious moments between all of the original Tenchi characters.

Without giving too much away, I just want to say that parts of this show were immature to me, but hey, it's a cartoon right? Tenchi and Tenchi Universe have their dopey moments too. Overall I forgot about the crummy animation in favor of the story which is classic Tenchi. It's involving, funny and very fun to watch and I reccomend this to anybody. Just be warned that the art in this is not even close to Tenchi and Tenchi Universe.

I gave it four stars becasue of the art. I should give it 5 just for not being "Pretty Sammy", but 4 is good.

We also get to enjoy more of Mihoshi's unerring ability to drive Kiyone nuts.

Without giving too much away, I just want to say that overall I forgot about the crummy animation in favor of the story which is classic Tenchi. It's emotionally involving, funny and very fun to watch and I reccomend this to anybody. Just be warned that you've proably already seen better artwork in the other timelines.

I gave it four stars becasue of the lesser-quality art. I should give it 5 just for not being "Pretty Sammy", but 4 is good.

Summary: fantastic series
Review: what can i say, one of the best shows to come out of japan, with many spinoffs and soon coming to cartoon network. i think it may get the kind of attention that dbz does and might even spark another craze with pretty sammy i definately reccomend purchasing this

Summary: Volume 7 of the Tenchi In Tokyo series.
Review: Yugi's plan is going perfectly. Mihoshi and Kiyone have gone undercover to arrest Ryoko, everybody thinks Ayeka has gone nuts, Washu is nowhere to be found and Tenchi is too busy with his new love life to care.
But cracks are showing in Yugi's perfect little world. Mihoshi and Kiyone seem to have doubts and may wish to reform Ryoko. Ayeka seems to be exploring the old tomb found earlier, trying to find clues to what Yugi IS and even Washu's research seems to be focused on Yugi. It seems Washu is making progress, linking the Yugi Sasami knows as a friend and the Yugi that attacked the household. Even Sakuya seems to be losing control over Tenchi and her own memories. The problem being, of course, is that she HAS no memories.
Is it too late? Will Yugi win even while the truth becomes known? And which side does Sakuya TRULY belong on?
