Hey gang! The news canon Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki fans have been waiting for is now out and translated. This is from the doujinshi entitled Omatsu Zenjitsu no Yoru – Tenchi Ban 13.12.
It’s been hectic this past summer and winter, but I’m finally commencing negotiations on the new anime. I did not explain this portion of the story in the anime because it would be far too long, and the feeling of tension would be lost. I wanted to make it easy to come into for those that had no knowledge of Tenchi. I think I will return to “Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari” and treat it the same as Tenchi. The plan is to continue to add on to “Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari’s” story in a written form, it’s so fun to draw.
Now then, I am going to talk about the upcoming projects. Now even though this is talking about what is being made, let me share with you in the most unprofessional way, a heart to heart. At the winter Comiket “Tenchi Muyo If” was released. The book was released in the style of a story board; however, the explanation for its content was not included. Because the doujin is tied to an anime project I didn’t want to reveal much. The contents of Tenchi Muyo “If” will be the future installment. When you pitch a new Tenchi project, it’s a good idea to try and entice them with pictures. I’ve been trying to avoid images that would be considered finalized. As was the case with the original, working in collaboration with others can be difficult. I think that in the future it will be easier to create more finalized images if future books are released in this format. Additionally, the tenth “Tenchi Muyo GXP” novel is complete. The anime project is still incomplete, but maybe it will be complete by summer…..
Pretty exciting news. ^_^ I have a lot more details, including how to look at both the Omatsu Zenjitsu no Yoru – Tenchi Ban 13.12 doujinshi and the Tenchi Muyo -If- doujinshi at my Tenchi Muyo! FAQ site.
Also, here’s one awesome page from Tenchi Muyo! -If-. ^_^
*lol* I love the looks on Aeka’s and Ryoko’s faces at the sight of Ryoko’s daughter hovering. So awesome. ^_^
Anyway, be sure to swing my the Tenchi Muyo! FAQ for all the details, including a bit about the Tenchi Muyo! GXP 10 novel.
New Tenchi anime? Excellent. I can’t believe it’s already been a decade since the last Tenchi OVAs. I’m guessing this will be an OVA as well. Looks like a pretty substantial time jump, though, as the last OVA still took place in like 1994. I hope it shows how Tenchi finally settled down with the girls. We already knew he had a kid with Ryoko and that he has *ahem* been intimate with Noike. Still, it’d be nice to finally show how the “Marry Them All” scenario came to pass.
Yikes! Has it been that long already? ^_^;;;
If you look at the -If- scans, I think Tenchi is pretty settled down. (Seina as well.)
I dont want to comment much on Tenchi Muyo because it can only be likened to having lingering feelings for an ex girlfriend. However i will say that If the Tenchi Muyo canon storyline continues with children in the mix, the overall show may just rise from number 123 in my top anime list of all time.
Interesting. So seeing Tenchi’s kids (along with Seina’s boy) doing things is something you find could be good viewing I take it. I can certainly understand that.
Reading the text of the 13.12, I wonder if the “story” is one for OVA 4, or is it for OVA 5? Can you determine this from the original text?
I for one would like to know gender of the second batch of Tenchi’s and Seina’s kids. (that would be Amane’s, Mihoshi’s, Noike’s, and RyokoB’s babies.) “IF” they inculded only one male, one expect Kajishima-sensei be setting up a second harme joke?
BTW, I assume that Seina’s kids are all marked with a band aid on their head, is the any information on this?
Well, I’m there’s nothing saying that the new series being pitched is in fact going to be an OVA series. Indeed, if I had to bet, I’d say it would be a TV series, or a hybrid like War on Geminar was (it was designed to be a TV series, then got shifted to a PPV/OVA series). All I do know from the Tenchi sequel stuff is that the story in -If- is a depiction of events that happen sometime after GXP.
There could be other males, but yeah, knowing Kajishima-sensei, there’s the whole harem element. Then again, the new doujinshi suggests that the story will only focus on Seina’s son and Aeka’s and Ryoko’s daughters growing up together.
That is the assumption. ^_^
