#TENCHI MUYO RYO OHKI EPISODE LIST FULL#
Every guy's dream, right? House full of hot women that just wanna get in your pants. Their reasoning can be different, but Tenchi literally gets fought over. It's a classic example of the "harem anime" type and boy does it capitalize on it! Practically all the girls want a piece of Tenchi in some form or another. Tenchi is an average Joe kinda guy, however he happens upon the most random, far-fetched, and by most all accounts implausible scenarios that land him with several strange women living in the house with him, his dad, and his grandpa. That's why it will be difficult to be objective about the anime, it's one that I have so many fond memories of watching that the rose-tinted glasses are firmly welded to my face. If we had DVD sets like we do now, I would have pooped my pants. I can remember watching this as a kid and I couldn't WAIT for the next episode to come on. So this is kind of hard to review since the nostalgia factor is really strong with this one. What can you say? It's a mid-90's harem anime featuring your standard average Joe as the main protagonist.

I'm not going to go into depth on this review. It's also a trope setter for a lot of things we commonly see now, and it's not unfair to level a fair amount of blame for the scourge of super cute mascot characters we see these days on Sasami and Ryo-Ohki. A fantastic rom-com with some well placed scifi action and a nice bit of world building here and there, Tenchi has managed to create aįantastic cast of characters with unique personalities and character design (following the silhouette rule of character design, that is, in silhouette, as many characters as humanly possible should be immediately identifiable or recognizable. It's not going too far in my mind to say it is THE harem anime. It's not a stretch to say that Tenchi is what got me into anime along with Outlaw Star on the legendary Toonami block a few yonks and a half back now. As a result, fans of the OVA, and fans of harems in general, should enjoy this series.Įspecially given that everyone and their dog's probably seen Tenchi Muyo (Universe/TV aka the one who's page you're on). Viewers don't get stuck with empty fillers there is always something going on whether or not the story has picked up. The best points about Tenchi Universe is how nicely it transitions. Bolder content, like nudity, swearing and sexual references, is a lot more minimal. Audio is backed with a library of different music, spot-on sound effects and believably acted voices. The artwork is less shaded and the animation isn't as fluid but it all still looks good. The story is similar to the first series: progressive events cause an assemblage of characters, mishaps create subplots, a threatening antagonist later appears and the group pits to stop them.
#TENCHI MUYO RYO OHKI EPISODE LIST SERIES#
Like its inspiration, the series remains a harem comedy, following the tangled life of Tenchi Masaki and his extraterrestrial visitors. Tenchi Universe is a spin-off to Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki. Though the girls are a pain, Tenchi begins to form a close relationship with each of them, and through their bond, he begins to gain a better understanding of his role in the universe. As a result, they just end up making a mess and causing trouble for poor Tenchi. The six women do their best to adapt to their new lives, but their more advanced and exotic lifestyle does not mesh well with the simplistic customs on Earth. This includes the delicate Princess Aeka of Jurai and her playful younger sister Princess Sasami the scatterbrained first-class detective Mihoshi Kuramitsu and her more capable partner Kiyone Makibi and the eccentric, mad scientist Washuu Hakubi. Little did Tenchi know that by saving Ryouko, he would spark a series of events that would lead alien women from all walks of life to inhabit his home. Tenchi Masaki's life changes forever when the ship of an infamous space pirate, Ryouko Hakubi, is shot down and crashes near his family's temple.
