    It’s about time we get some more images in here! This one comes directly from me to you, courtesy of Funimation’s Tenchi Universe box set!

    Couldn’t have picked a better pic for the TU box set IMO :D

    I think I’ll just leave this here…

    Kiyone FINALLY gets the recognition she deserves!

    Also, I wonder what went on between those two that’s causing them to glance awkwardly at each other! :Cheeks:

    OK guys. Here it is. The OFFICIAL chucklocker review/inside look into the FUNImation Tenchi Universe box set!

    By now I’m sure you’ve all seen the cover of the box set so I will forgo showing you that in favor of showing you the reverse side of the box, which includes the most comically inaccurate “Continuity Map” I have EVER seen. Seriously, it’s like they didn’t even try to get the continuities straight!

    Now we come to the inside of the box itself. While the outer cardboard sleeve is nice and glossy, the plastic of the case itself is extremely flimsy. Plus, I don’t like that they were too lazy to print up a little guide booklet to put in the inner sleeve. Instead they just printed the episode list on the reverse of the cover lol.

    At this point you may be thinking, like I was, that the inside of this box set is pretty damn disappointing, but then we come to this beautiful sight in the back that ALMOST makes it all better!

    Now that we all have gotten an eyeful of that, let’s turn to the DVD’s themselves. Here are the Menus of each of the four discs.

    As you can see, function over form is the name of the game here. Although I have to say that the background art of the last two menus are pretty sweet! (especially that Kiyone x Tenchi one :Cheeks: )

    I do have one MAJOR complaint about the menus, however, and that is the horrendously bad background music they chose to use! Rather than get something that makes sense/is pleasing to the ear, they chose to use that Godawful elevator music from the FUNI trailer for the box set! UGH!

    Now to everybody’s biggest question: The extras. Short answer: there are none. Actually, you do get two cool things which are textless versions of the opening and ending vids of the show, but I mean they have been available on YT for years now… Other than that all you get is the stupid funi trailer mentioned above, and a few trailers for other funi sets.

    All in all, this is a cheap box set for a cheap price. I suppose that for the price, this is a very reasonable box set, I just wish there were more extra features. Also, that star map on the back is just awful!

    Verdict: 7/10.

    Indeed, after all she solved the case of the Ultra Energy Matter with nothing but her raw skill and a conveniently placed banana peel! :scared:

    Sweet pics Nobuyuki! That first one with the charcoal(?) sketches of Kenshi is awesome! And of course I always love me some Doll pics :Cheeks:

    Anyway, what’s up with that last one? I assume that it’s some anime babe cosplaying as Kenshi’s Seikijin(?)

    Ahem, *cough cough, points to Star Blazers/Yamato thread, cough cough* yeah old anime is the best! :Cheeks:

    Anyway, there are certain shows that I really don’t get burnt out on. Shows like Tenchi and Yamato that maintain a high level of quality throughout and that I have deep feeling for, I just keep finding myself coming back to.

    I bet most of you thought that Kagato was the first anime villain to get a badass organ theme. Well you’re wrong, cause Space Battleship Yamato did it way back in 1978 and I have yet to find a more villainous or dread inducing piece of music anywhere in anime!
