" /> Episode 14:Poor Tenchi just wants a place to rest his head after a long day at work. He should know by now that he’s never going to get that with the girls around! Sasami infiltrated his high school, gets a Hatsune Miku reference dropped in there and wipes out the Student Council’s memories MIB style. Someone had the bright idea to let Ryoko cook dinner tonight, and it seems like her skills have lapsed even harder from the OVA. She almost looks like a witch toiling away at her bubbling cauldron more than a loving woman preparing a feast for her man! And oh god, she’s gone almost Yandere all of a sudden. I uh, guys, halloween isn’t for another week!
A fun episode all around, and a great way to cap off this week’s events. Here’s to yet another recap tomorrow.

I believe this is a throwback to Katsuhito catching Ryoko’s punch in OVA series 1 episode 3, and Ryoko destroying the stairs with a punch, confused as to how the old priest could halt her force. Evidently, Tenchi is not all-powerful.
That’s the first thing I thought of when I viewed said scene in Episode 9! It’s a fun throwback. (Side-by-side gifs must soon follow!)

" /> Episode 13:At last, Tenchi brings the beatdown. The mechanized wonderguard is no match for Tenchi’s training and skill with the sword. There was also further development tidbits for Beni and Hachiko. Seems that Hachiko just feels straight up powerless without some kind of weapon, and without it she begins to sob. Very reminiscent of a child without their favorite toy. Beni sticks her neck out to protect the vulnerable Hachiko, resulting in her taking yet another harsh blow. I swear, that woman is made of Nintendium or something.
Yuki made off with a bunch of boxes, I wonder what she decided to jack from the place? Moreover, will they go back into the warehouse? Someone was obviously in there running around…
Very fun episode today!
I’m glad to see people enjoyed yesterday’s episode as much as they did – I feared that perhaps because it went a little slower and didn’t forward the plot too much it would come under fire. kiyonesmile1

" /> Episode 12:Another episode of action, but a dash of plot added for good measure. Beni has a dream that relates to the young Momo from the feudal timeline, so her current self is at least semi-aware of what happened in another life. Though it was interesting to see Hachiko in her normal getup instead of the battle garb she wore in Episode 8. Hachiko and Beni, previously enemies on the battlefield, accept a short truce so that they can get out of the warehouse alive.
When Tenchi yells at them to calm down over a spat they get into, I found it very interesting to watch the faces of the two girls. Beni is unapologetic and looks pissed off as he yells at them. Hachiko on the other hand, gets a dejected look on her face. Perhaps an extension of her ‘loyal dog’ trope and namesake, her tendency to wear her heart on her sleeve for the people she is most loyal to surfaces. Tenchi saved her life, and because of this his words hit her harder.
And then there’s the fact that the school had a robot, one that was considered enough of a danger that they buried it under boxes in the warehouse. At first I thought it had something to do with Washu, and it may still have something to do with her, but what kind of school has a functioning robot?!
Overall, a great episode of character development while keeping the action up. Tomorrow’s episode may turn out pretty packed! Poor Beni’s going to end up more stitched up than an old doll at the rate she takes beatings.
" /> Episode 11 is now subtitled and available!
" /> Episode 11:Mostly an episode of action rather than plot advancement, we see Hachiko and Tenchi walking around in this decrepit warehouse filled with some dangerous traps and hidden passageways. The Science Club is right behind them, but has to work around the fact that they can’t navigate this place with any accuracy. Beni’s injury could place everyone in an interesting position. If Tenchi and Hachiko tend to her wounds, will she be so opposed to them as she had been in the past? Her working relationship with the Science Club seemed to be a matter of business rather than preference after all. Not a whole lot else to talk about.
