Description:

The sinister Jurai mutant, Yugi, begins her assault on Earth. She ends the existence of Tenchi's girlfriend, Sakuya (who was just a projection), and freezes time. But her plans to turn Earth into her private empire/playground failed to consider the extraordinary power of the Masaki family members in their role as Guardians of the Planet. The mysterious crystal gems left to Tenchi by his mother are powerful enough to reunite the scattered family as they battle Yugi's agents. Ryoko dukes it out with the icy Hotsuma; Galaxy Patrol Agents Mihoshi and Kiyoni take on the sorcerer Tsugaru; Ayeka confronts the feline Matori. When gems are brought together, they fuse, giving Tenchi a deadly sword and the power to challenge Yugi. Instead of indulging in standard anime mayhem, director Nobuhiro Takamoto gives the adventure a surprise ending that's in keeping with the character's personalities and the lighthearted tone of the series. Of course, once Yugi ceases to be a menace, things return to (ab)normal at the Masaki household: the women from outer space fight over Tenchi, and new crises threaten to erupt at any moment--which is just what Tenchi fans want. (Ages 13 and older for brief nudity and stylized cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon
