Description:
Two broadcast series, an OVA, and three theatrical features make Tenchi Muyo one of the most popular anime series. Seina Yamada is an adolescent geek living in Tenchi's home town of Okayama: a one-man destruction derby who only needs to walk by a piece of equipment for it to malfunction. Seina says he knows Tenchi, and when he enrolls in the Galaxy Police Academy as a joke, he finds himself training for the space force Mihoshi and Kiyoni belonged to. But neither they nor any other members of the familiar Tenchi gang appear. GXP also fails to capture the mixture of light-hearted romantic comedy and sci-fi adventure that made Tenchi a success. Seina appears barely pubescent, yet voluptuous adult women pursue him, which gives the humor a disquieting edge. GXP feels like a cynical attempt to cash in on an established franchise. (Rated 13 and older: risqué humor, brief nudity, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
