    We are aware of the fact that Tenchi’s home is located near the Masaki Shrine and a lake. The Masaki Shrine and the lake are located in a large nature preserve. The nature preserve have likely been a part of a larger estate which the Masaki Family had once own. Since there are some fields located next to he Masaki Shrine, rest of the former estate was likely divided into farms which most belong to members of the Masaki Family, and smaller estates.

    There are other residences located around the area where the Masaki Shrine is located. One of the residences may happen to be the one own by Taro’s grandmother. Tao’s gandmother is one of Tenchi’s aunts. Because the Masaki Family happens to be one of Japan’s most powerful and wealthiest families, there is likely a large country mansion located somewhere near Tenchi’s place and the Masaki Shrine.

    The exact location of Tenchi’s place was partially known. A clue from GXP states that there is a large town located near Tenchi’s place. The town has a large population sufficent to support the large super maket own by the Yamada Family. The name of the town was not given.

    From another clue in the first OVA 3 episode, Tenchi’s place is loacted within a reasonable walking distance from there. The location of the the town seem to be within a half hour distance from the Kurashiki City train station. The town is located along the Hakubi line. The town is likely Takahashi, Japan.

    While Takahashi City Japan is helping to promote the new Tenchi Muyo series, it seem that the town may not be the one located near Tenchi’s home. Takahashi City had not exist until 2004. The city was a merger between the town of Takahashi and four other towns. Before 2004, Takahashi was a large town. From one of the Google maps, Takahashi City is located within a half hour from Kurashiki City.

    The exact location of Tenchi’s place is still a puzzle. From the best clues available to us, the town located near Tenchi’s home is a large town. That large town happen to be the former town of Takahashi, Japan. Now, Tenchi’s home is likely inside the city limits of Modern Day Takahashi City, Japan.
