    I’ve only seen the first episode of Iczer One, so I can’t really comment too much on how much or how little the franchise influenced Tenchi. I was aware of the uncanny resemblance of Iczer 3 to Ryoko before, and there are certainly more than a few similarities between the shows. I hadn’t heard much about Outlanders before you and Dagon brought it up, Silver, and I’d be very interested in checking it out. At the end of the day, the best any of us can really do is speculate as to what may have inspired the creators of Tenchi, but given the AIC connection it’s probably safe to assume that these shows were at the very least proving grounds for concepts that would be reworked for Tenchi.
