Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-25 00:00:00 Robert Long Created in a time before ratings in the manga industry I am going to assume this book is rated Teen due to violence and typical harem anime story lines. Picking up after the original OAV(or so I assume considering Tenchi Muyo has more alternate stories then any anime I know and the first few pages review sounds like the OAV) the Tenchi gang are confronted by creature that looks like Ryoko and before long they discover the powerful warrior Yakage ho wishes to fight Tenchi. If you are into harem animes and into scifi/space harem anime then I am sure you would like this series and at least most of the anime out there. :) I know my favorite part of the book is when Ryoko slaps Ayeka for complaining because Tenchi was not there to rescue her and scolding her for her spoiled attitude. I can't say to much or I will spoil parts of the book but if you want to get into an older series and you don't mind girls going gaga for one guy in a book then go for this series. :)

Review # 2 was written on 2009-06-03 00:00:00 Ryan Sharp Tenchi Muyo was one of my favorite animes when I was in high school, and I still love it to this day. The only problem is I'm not entirely sure how this series even starts. It seems a bit like the Bible and has two different beginnings that don't match up. But despite that, I love the characters, especially Ryoko, who, in my opinion, is the greatest female anime character ever! She is greatness! Okuda-san's artwork looks exactly like an anime, so he did a great job! And even though I was reading pages, it felt like I was watching an episode. Ayeka was still super annoying. Ryoko was still super amazing. And Tenchi's grandpa was still super hilarious! But of course, leave it to Japan to have love interests in the family.... considering Tenchi would be Ayeka's great nephew and she has the hots for him... awkward! Anyway, for the start of the manga, I enjoyed it! I have to buy the rest of the series so I can read it, hopefully in the near future!
