    Yeah as mentioned most of the longer story arcs covering one volume or more would work very well in animated form, especially the Ryuten-Yume one.
    I loved the Tenchi manga, though that may just be because I’m such a big Tenchi fan! The artwork was great and I really liked some of the characters introduced in the manga, like Minagi (a real shame she vanished for so long after volume six of No Need for Tenchi). I do feel it was stronger in the story arcs running across one or more volumes, as opposed to the one-off or two part stories, as good as some of those were. And All New Tenchi Muyo was running out of steam towards the end I think – even more frustrating when the final few chapters really cut loose, and then it was all over! Plus a shame as it was the OVA universe that there was no Kiyone. That sounds like I’m griping a lot, but I really did enjoy both manga a lot.

    My favourite story arcs are probably the whole Ryuten-Yume storyline which ran from volumes four to six of No Need for Tenchi, the ninth volume of No Need for Tenchi focusing on part of Ryoko’s past, and the Dark Washu saga in All New Tenchi Muyo which was startlingly grim at times. I just loved seeing the Tenchi characters in so many new stories really.

    I enjoy conventions, there’s always going to be some strange/creepy/smelly/all of the above people there, but they’re outnumbered easily enough and there’s a lot of fun to be had.
    Reading Twin Spica 12 (final volume!) this week, then on to Kimi ni Todoke 13 the week after.
    I guess Kiyone and Mihoshi aren’t affected when we see them because by then Washu’s protection is in place (I assume she will have taken them into account when doing it). As for the GP Operative, I agree he’s pretty pointless, his entire role seems to be a character of uncertain allegiance, than he just gets easily bumped off. Mihoshi is also pretty pointless in the film, one flaw I find with Universe, as much as I love it, is that Mihoshi is always utterly useless, as opposed to the clumsy but still sometimes effective character she is in Muyo.

    I do like Tenchi in Love, but prefer Daughter of Darkness.

    I like that fog pic… one of the few times she doesn’t have her headband, and that just proves she doesn’t need it.

    Lies! Kiyone’s headband is one of the coolest things about her.

    I have this (I never played the RPG but wanted it out of Tenchi fan completism), it’s pretty fun to read. There’s one for Tenchi Universe too.
    Hello fellow Kiyone fan!
    I’m Charlie, I’m 28 years old and I live in London. I work for a book publishing company, doing editorial work. I’ve been into Tenchi for about ten years now, and it’s still one of my favourite anime (I like the manga too *ducks the rotten fruit*). I love to read manga, and books in general. I listen to more music than I really have time to, and I like watching various sports and going to the cinema too. Plus the Final Fantasy series :)
