    It’s about 50/50 for me making it. Don’t wait up for me if everyone else is ready to go.

    I’m sorry to hear that she’s sick. I hope she makes a full recovery. It was nice to have a fellow Tenchi fan in high places to chat with at every con. Thanks for letting us know, JG.

    Not to my knowledge. I live out in the boonies, so I’m lucky to see anything remotely exotic.

    Ringing in the new year with my old foe, Yamazaki. Unlike the 12 year, which famously put me under the table at Chibi-Pa, this 18 year is a much more mellow experience. It has the same wonderful woody finish though, and leaves an excellent aftertaste for a surprisingly long time. My first Japanese whiskey continues to be a rich and complex (and monstrously expensive) experience, one that I highly recommend for whiskey fans looking for something new.

    I actually wouldn’t have minded if teenage Momo kissed Tenchi right before she disappeared. It was for all intents and purposes the end of her life, and she clearly had grown very attached to him after all they had been through across space and time. Tenchi wouldn’t have initiated it, of course, but I bet he would have appreciated the meaning it would have had for Momo. Fun food for thought :)

    Indeed, welcome back to the fold Beagle-san! You made several points, many of which I agree with to an extent, but I have to entirely disagree with your analysis of the new characters’ “depth.” In my opinion you have misassociated back story with actual depth. Just because we don’t know every little biographical detail about these characters doesn’t make them “stereotypical tropes in the form of some cute girls.” We don’t need to know exactly what crime Beni committed in the past to know that she was a bad girl whose heart was softned by baby Momo. One is back story and the other is depth. We don’t need to know what precise trauma occured in Hachiko’s past to cause her to break down when her sword is taken away to know that she is tough girl who has hidden confidence issues. One is back story and the other is depth. I’m not saying that the new girls were as deep as the old girls were back in OVA 1, or even as deep as I would have liked. Neither will I comment as to the relative depth of one Tenchi series to another. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions in such matters. I will say only that in my opinion, to claim that the new characters had no depth whatsoever is simply untrue.

    Indeed, rumors of her non-existence were premature! I imagine that since there was no need for her on the mission (nobody needed to go to space), and having an alien cat/rabbit that turns into a spaceship would probably blow their cover, she was left behind to hold down the fort. She probably spent that time taste testing the Masaki household’s carrots, lol. Or who knows, maybe she had a grand adventure all on her own and we’ll see it in an OVA or novel at some point! 😆

    Thank you so much to everyone on the translation team! You guys are the reason our carnival came back around dawohki1

    It’s going to take a little bit of time for me to digest this series, but I can’t wait to finally unpack my thoughts about how it all turned out. It’s been one hell of a ride, though, and I’ve loved sharing every minute of it with everyone here!
