AstroNerdBoy Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki OVA 5 Schedule (and more)
Hey gang! I’m running just a little late on this Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki OVA 5 news. And I’m actually paying for this since AIC has blocked their promotional video for OVA 5 for whatever whacked reasons. π It is not even viewable on their own website, though it was earlier when I started writing this on November 4.
That said, here’s a screenshot of the scheduled release of each episode on video.
And here are a couple more textless screenshots. Kenshi is going to get some training.
The promo video showed Tokimi is going to be in OVA 5. And a GXP character is going to be in it as well.
But I’m kinda hyped for OVA 5. Are you? Let me know in the comment section. Let me know if you want to see more screen captures as I grabbed everything I could.
AstroNerdBoy Interviewed About Tenchi
Finally, here’s an interview Joeβs Universal Compendium did with me regarding Tenchi Muyo! We discuss more than just Tenchi. I have a rather unfortunate burp that didn’t get edited out. π€£ And for some reason, I am loud as all get out. Not sure why, but there you go.

I’m looking forward to this. Especially since we are supposed to start seeing Tenchi’s children in it. The PV was re-uploaded to their youtube channel by the way.
Actually, they uploaded a video that’s 30 seconds shorter. π But yeah, in the artwork that was cut out, there were some wedding dresses for some of Tenchi’s harem.
30 episodes in all. That’s like 1 episode release per year.
Haha. I hadn’t thought about it like that.
I’m just amused Sasami doesn’t seem to have aged when Kenshi is already a grown boy.
I mean, Juraian lifespan, I get it, but weren’t they supposed to age like humans through childhood until reaching a certain age, at which they “freeze”? The reason why Sasami still looks like a child even after 700 years is because she spent most of those in hibernation through space, right?
Not to mention, she WOULD have to find a way to look properly aged anyway as long as she’s living on Earth. Otherwise she’s going to raise questions, unless the family starts claiming she’s a midget.
Well, maybe story-wise (and I’m not sure about that). But in reality, Sasami was always the lolicon fetish waifu character. In the doujinshi, Kajishima-sensei does have her look like a teenager after Tenchi is hooking up with the harem. But I’m guessing that AIC wanted to keep the loli character around, thus no aging for Sasami.
(And no clothing change for the main cast.)
I’m not sure why you’re assuming Sasami isn’t going to age up. The visual is the casts recognizable designs, and the first episode will take place at least a little when Kenshi is just born. If AIC was against aging up Sasami they wouldn’t have let one of the pre-order bonuses be an aged up Sasami illustration.
Well, in reality, Sasami should look older than she does, IMO. In the promo art, she looks even younger than her OVA 1 introduction (at least to me). She appears about the same in the limited footage we’ve seen from OVA 5, episode 1. But in OVA 2, Sasami was supposed to be hitting puberty. Assuming this hit at the young age of 10, Sasami would be ~15 when Kenshi is training as a boy. She doesn’t look 15 yet. π
But I do hope that AIC does allow her to appear older as time moves forward.
Kind of surprised you haven’t put any info about OVA 5 on your Tenchi section.
Heh. You are right. And I need to do so. π
