TENCHI MUYO MOVIES

Tenchi Muyo in Love This is the first of the Tenchi movies, and my personal favorite. This was one of the first anime movies I saw, and it really got me into the Tenchi Muyo series. Summary: Tenchi begins to dissapear suddenly one day. Later him and the gang are watching home movies with Tenchi's mom, Achika, in them. Suddenly Achika dissapears from the film! Washu sends the gang back in time to save Tenchi's mom, but can they do it? And who is this mysterious Kain? Review: Tenchi Muyo in Love is a must see for not just Tenchi fans, but for any anime fan. It was the driving thrust behind my early anime fandom. The only think I didn't understand was the title. Tenchi loves his mom, but he's not IN love with her! It's weird. Anyways, go see it!

Tenchi the Movie 2: Daughter of Darkness I just saw this movie recently, and it is a really good movie. Summary (stolen from Pioneer's Tenchi Site): On a hot summer day, a fetching young girl named Mayuka appears to Tenchi, calling him "Daddy!" Jealously and envy follow as Ryoko and Ayeka battle for Tenchi's attention with an apparently new rival. Who could the mother be?! Hiding in the background, Yuzuha, the Demoness of Darkness, is about to get her revenge against Yosho for a grudge held for over 700 years! She begins her plan by using Mayuka to steal Tenchi away to the Dimension of Darkness. So it begins again, Tenchi must fight to save his friends and Mayuka, daughter or not! Review: The movie is very good! Here we see some more of Yosho's hidden past and some new characters. Not quite as good as Tenchi in Love, but still definatley worth a watch. Also, the dvd comes with a VERY comprehensive Tenchi encyclopedia.

Tenchi Forever (aka Tenchi Muyo in Love 2) Tenchi Forever is the final hurrah of the Tenchi franchise. That's right, no more Tenchi =(. However, Tenchi definately went out with a bang. This one's a keeper. Summary: Tenchi goes out into the woods and sees a tree that beckons him. Tenchi dissapears. Six months later Ayeka and Ryoko finally find Tenchi. However, they often see him with a girl, and whenever they are about to catch him, he blinks out of existance. Washu finds that he is living in a parallel universe. Sasami goes to Jurai and finds out about Yosho's love with a girl named Haruna. Haruna's soul was living in the tree that beckoned Tenchi. Will Ryoko and Ayeka finally settle their differences and save Tenchi? And what if Tenchi doesn't want to leave? Review: This is the first anime movie I saw on my DVD player, and all I can say is.. wow! It is drawn differently than all the other Tenchi series, and it looks really nice. Also, action and comedy, the normal driving forces behind Tenchi, are not present in this film. It's a really nice film, so go see it, right now!

Whew! I'm done! Back
