Rating: Summary: most imaginative volume in entire series. Review: This is volume 4/8, but it's by far my favorite of the series.The base story Washu's most recent ingenious invention is hijacked by the dreams of Ryoko, Aeka, Mihoshi, Kione and Sasami. Washu's device is one that creates alternative realities based upon the wishes of the user. So, the girls' deepest desires (ummm, basicly involving Tenchi) become manifest... Poor Tenchi. Now the girls are chasing him across alternate dimensions of spacetime! Each alternative reality is a stand-alone mini story in its own right. Nice segway between the "on earth" and "in space" Tenchi Universe episodes. My favorite is Sasami's reality, where she becomes Pretty Sammy. (This is the 2nd instance of the Pretty Sammy character. She first appeared in the Mihoshi Special and later got her own OVA and TV series.) In this story, she comes up with a most interesting strategy to win Tenchi's affections while addressing the emotional needs of Ryoko and Aeka! Absolutely hilarious! Perhaps the funniest moment in the entire series. Must buy for dedicated Sasami/Pretty Sammy fans.
Rating: Summary: No Need for Pretty Sammy Review: Washu invents a machine that can create alernate dimensions, such as the Pretty Sammy universe where Sasami rips of Sailor Moon and Ryo-ohki can talk. Ryoko, Kiyone, and basically everyone get sent to these weird dimensions, in the meantime, Washu is trying to bring everyone back to their own dimensions. Time and Space Adventures Parts 1,2 and 3 are all on the DVD.
