False Advertisment2
It says on the cover that this is The Complete Series. It is in fact the last 7 episodes to a 20 episode series. AKA: You get ripped off.

The Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki series is in fact the first series in the Tenchi Muyo universe. It was released in 3 OVA seasons. The first season had 7 episodes in it, and the second had 6. Both of those seasons were played on Cartoon Network back in 2000 on Toonami. OVA Season 3 is what you get if you buy this item. It is simply the last 7 episodes to the entire series, along with some bonus material.

Why?4
The Tenchi series is a really good, but WHY? This series was good but there are still some loose ends to the story. The characters all somewhat the same. It seemed that their personalities were changed a little.

If the makers of the Tenchi series do read this PLEASE TIE UP THE LOOSE ENDS IN THE SERIES!!!!!!!

Was This Trip Really Necessary?3
I was quite eager to see this series, hoping for an ending to the fine original OAV series, which I always thought was the best out there. What I got left me more than slightly puzzled.
First, what you get is new characters, a lot of them, including one more rival for Tenchi. This results in less time for the traditional characters, and not much time for character development. The chief rivals for Tenchi's affections, Ayeka and Ryoko, are still around, but they have little to do other than react to what the new characters are doing.
Second, those who thought they knew this story had better think again, because it turns out that most of the established facts were incomplete. This means that a large portion of airtime is spent trying to explain the story, which may explain why the truly new plot twists were not fully established in my opinion.
Though I am a fan of this storyline, maybe this entry shows that it is time to take a break, and give this whole concept a rest. Let's give Tenchi some time off, and let's see if he's got something new to show us in the future.
