Tenchi Muyo Ryo Ohki - Box Set (Classic)

The one that started it All. If you love Tenchi, get it. I did. I'm happy 😊

Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki is the third season of the Tenchi Muyo! OVA series, picking up after the events of "Here Comes Jurai!"This season contains three main plot arcs: - Tenchi finds himself subject to an arranged marriage and his fiancée comes to the Masaki house, which sends all of the other girls into a fit; - Misao, Mihoshi's brother, comes to Earth in a massive battleship to "rescue" Mihoshi from Tenchi's evil, woman-hoarding ways; - The secrets, depths, and origin of Tenchi's powers are finally revealed, as well as the extent of involvement of Tokimi, Tsunami, and Washu.In true Tenchi fashion, each of these stories is explored in sometimes-overdone comedy combined with emotional storytelling. The additional introductions of Tenchi's sister and Katsuhito's wife, and more information on the death of Tenchi's mother, make this season a must-add to any Tenchi collection.One important thing to note: Ryo-Ohki was released in 2004, which is 10 years after the release of the original OVA collection. This means that unfortunately some of the original cast, such as Petrea Burchard (the OVA 1/2 voice of Ryoko), did not return and so were recast; additionally, the animation style is noticeably different, which may throw some viewers off if they're not expecting it.

It took me a while to decide whether to buy this because of some reviews saying it was only a partial product. Technically true: this is the last 1/3 of the OVA series, and completes the story told if you bought the "Tenchi Muyo!: OVA Series".I'm very happy I did buy this, because in countless ways, the OVA series (completed by this Ryo-Ohki set and continued by the GXP series) is superior to the Tenchi Universe and that is my personal opinion that I won't bore anyone with.In any case, I had already purchased the OVA and GXP series, and would have been missing out if I hadn't found out that this Ryo-Ohki set goes in the middle. I found it to be a lot of fun- more crazy stuff happening, more crazy aliens show up, and the art style and animation quality are improved as well.

If you like harem anime with colorful characters watch this.

I loved Tenchi when it was on Cartoon Network. This series isn’t what I remember watching. It seems to be the sequel to the 1st 13 episodes (I originally had them on VHS if you can believe that. The Blu Ray set of these episodes is called OVA collection). Some of the voices are different and the story line is hard to follow but if you need closure from the open ended original OVA, this will kind of get you there haha. I prefer the original OVA and Tenchi Universe myself, don’t even think I’ll venture to watch Tenchi GXP.

I got this cause I found it interesting as any other harem

I am a big Tenchi fan, and this along with the Robotech series are my most favorite of the anime series out there. However, unlike the previous versions of Tenchi out there, this was the shortest. After about disc two, it actually then becomes the weirdest entry in the series. It is still worth the money, and the new character of Noike is quite charming, but this is by far the weirdest one yet. If you are a fellow fan of Tenchi, check it out first, just to be on the safe side. I like weird stuff, so as for myself, I didn't mind it.

I am a huge fan of Tenchi Muyo. When I first started learning about and watching anime, it was one of the first titles I indulged in. I loved the original story as seen in the OVA, but, unfortunately; it seems with each retake on the Tenchi Universe that things become more "sterile" and boring. This version has all the original characters, plus a few new ones such as Mihoshi's brother, and Tenchi's grandmother, plus a mystery woman who is to be Tenchi's bride to be. Also, what seems to be lacking is the crisp and clean artwork that was there in the Original Version of the Anime. The characters look like who they are supposed to be, but sadly they arent drawn as well as they were in the original.The storyline is marginal, the artwork a bit muted, and the storyline, could use a bit more work. I mean when you can pretty much tell that the voice actors are reading from their scripts in the final take...Thats a problem, Finally, did I mention how "corny" the story gets when it deals with Rhyo Ohki interacting with the cast members.

完結まで揃っていて、結構面白く鑑賞した購入してよかったと満足している

第３期という事らしいが・・・・第１期に比較して非常に劣化している・・・詰め込みすぎ、消化不良という感じ。

第一期とあるが3期なので注意

It's only the remaining 7 episodes of the Ryo Ohki series (classed as an ova) but this is the one release that funimation hasn't screwed up with translation and audio glitches
