WAHANLY SHUME - Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar

[majinmochi]

I feel like Kajishima could have kept this piece of information to himself rather than devote an entire Doujin to explaining it

[polyamanga]

I recommend Tenchi Muyo (the OVA, at least,) Tenchi Muyo GXP, Tenchi Muyo War on Geminar, Photon The Idiot Adventures, Kanokon (which MIGHT be one of the earliest examples), and I'm pretty sure both Monster Musume and Invaders of the Rokujouma are gonna end up being poly, but I could be wrong.

[WHEW this is a long one! I'm gonna put it under a readmore just to save some people's dashes! As always, thank you for the recommendations!!]

I've been meaning to try out Tenchi Muyo for so long! There was a time where there was a TV Tropes page called "Tenchi Ending" that was made for series that have poly endings. I think it's called something else now, cus I never found it again any time I looked. I've wanted to check it out ever since, it's just a little intimidating! There's so much Tenchi content! lol

I'll just include the synopsis for the OG Tenchi Muyo! Ryououki here:

Seventeen-year-old Tenchi Masaki grew up hearing stories about how his ancestor used a sword to seal a demon inside a cave seven hundred years ago. When curiosity gets the better of him, Tenchi goes to the cave and stumbles across the sword from the legend. Thinking that the story is nothing more than a fairy tale, he removes the blade and inadvertently releases the demon, who turns out to be a space pirate named Ryouko Hakubi. Furious about being trapped for so long, she attacks Tenchi, but he is able to repel her with the sword, awakening his inner power. After seeing this, Ryouko takes an interest in her unlikely savior and decides to crash at his place. As if it were a chain reaction, more alien women—Aeka Jurai Masaki, an uptight princess from the planet Jurai; Sasami, Aeka's sweet younger sister; Mihoshi Kuramitsu, a ditzy Galactic Police Officer; and Washuu Hakubi, a wisecracking genius—gradually come in contact with Tenchi and begin living with him. Through his encounters with these five women, Tenchi begins to learn more about his ancestry, newfound power, and the looming threat lurking beyond the skies.

As for Photon, that's a new one to me. It's available on Crunchyroll in the US at least; everything I'm seeing about it suggests its pretty adult though! ANN lists "graphic depictions of sex, drug use and bloodshed" under its content warnings, so there's that. Admittedly, not what I expected based on the synopsis or cover lol. The protag looks so sad about it too!

Photon Earth is a young and gentle boy with superhuman strength and "Baka" (meaning "idiot" in Japanese) scribbled on his forehead (apparently by his troublemaking friend Aun Freya). One day, he finds himself engaged to the beautiful fugitive pilot Keyne Acqua after writing "baka" on her forehead. And that's the least of his worries as he must protect both Aun and Keyne from the evil Papacharino, who seeks to steal the secrets of "Aho" (another word for idiot) energy from Keyne's grandfather's ship.

Kanokon, I have heard of! That's one I saw all over the place (especially in amvs) for a couple of years. I believe it's a shota series? Seems like the protag is the same age as the love interests, but he certainly LOOKS like a little baby lmao

Having spent most of his life in the country, Kouta is understandably nervous when he moves in with his grandma to attend a high school in the big city. He hoped to make a good impression, but having Chizuru, a beautiful fox spirit, hanging off his arm didn't seem to be the sort of image he wanted to have. She's not alone in her love for Kouta, either. Nozomu, a wolf spirit, as well as other youkai have their sights set on the hapless country boy.

Monster Musume (Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou / Everyday Life with Monster Girls) is one I've seen a bit of, but a while back it got removed from like, every streaming service in the US for some reason! That's another one with a really reluctant protag as well lol (though it makes sense for him, poor guy!) I didn't get to far into it, but I know it's absolutely brimming with fanservice, for those who enjoy that. (Also...Miia is sooooo cute)

With his parents abroad, Kimihito Kurusu lived a quiet, unremarkable life alone until monster girls came crowding in! This alternate reality presents cutting-edge Japan, the first country to promote the integration of non-human species into society. After the incompetence of interspecies exchange coordinator Agent Smith leaves Kimihito as the homestay caretaker of a Lamia named Miia, the newly-minted "Darling" quickly attracts girls of various breeds, resulting in an ever-growing harem flush with eroticism and attraction. Unfortunately for him and the ladies, sexual interactions between species is forbidden by the Interspecies Exchange Act! The only loophole is through an experimental marriage provision. Kimihito's life becomes fraught with an abundance of creature-specific caveats and sensitive interspecies law as the passionate, affectionate, and lusty women hound his every move, seeking his romantic and sexual affections. With new species often appearing and events materializing out of thin air, where Kimihito and his harem go is anyone's guess!

Invaders of the Rokujouma is another new one to me! The plot sounds fun; I'd absolutely take an apartment full of ghost girls if it means I don't have to pay rent! lmao

Due to young Koutarou's financial circumstances, he is forced to live in a small rokujouma (6-tatami apartment) on a budget of 5000 yen a month. On the plus side, he lives rent-free, but on the minus side, that's because room 106 of Corona Apartments is cursed. The ghost is a cute young girl and hijinks ensue when she tries to drive him out. Between the haunting, Koutarou's nosy neighbors, and a self-styled magical girls flying to the unneeded rescue, there's way too much for the impoverished young man to handle.

Boy, the Tenchi Muyo! franchise sure is exhausting, isn't it? We had the OVAs, Tenchi Universe, the movies, Tenchi in Tokyo, GXP, War on Geminar, Ai Tenchi Muyo, the Pretty Sammy subfranchise, and related stuff like Photon and Dual. It's a lot to deal with. And much like with Lupin III, a lot of it is trash. But Lupin has several entries that hold up really well, which is more than I can say about Tenchi, which at its best is decent at the most. So, I think I'm probably going to wrap up my Tenchi coverage with the three movies: Tenchi in Love, Daughter of Darkness, and Tenchi Forever. They're not great, but they're not terrible either. Well, Daughter of Darkness is terrible.

In the world of the bookend material, it seems my intrusion into real world problems has me being chided by a colleague and a superior alike. But hey, you can't just unthinkingly capitulate to a madman with the power to overtake entire countries. You better do something before things get too out of hand to do anything. Especially when you have the power to do something.

And yeah, Edmund Burke probably never said that.

Thoughts on Lady Seto

I want more information on what happened to Seto's saaphic harem and if Mihoshi's aunt Mikami was once apart of it. Seto/Naja having a harem of women makes sense to me due to me thinking that Naja's feelings for Washu weren't just that of a best friend. perhaps Seto is planning on returning to her girls once Yosho's survival is finally revealed to everyone, Tenchi ascends, her plans succeed and she no longer has to play the political role. 

I remember reading once that Seto's, or rather Naja's (both?) grandest scheme/ultimate goal is the unification of the galaxies and to me, this would make sense-I believe that Naja, same as Kagato, paralleling how Kagato is a male clone of sorts of Naja, is in search of the Unified Field Theory/Grand Unified Theory same as he was, though of course Kagato's means were more nefarious and Seto hopes that through the unification of families, lovers, and loved ones-in the forms of these "marriages" she arranges (that almost always never work out as I believe someone in the Masaki village commented on during OVA 4) hold a truer goal of the harems that result from her schemes being units of great power centering and focusing their energies on one factor of a special vibration (Tenchi, Seina, Kenshi, Azusa, herself)-love will unveil the unified field and ultimately, fulfill the Chousin's purpose, ie: the metaphysical reunification of the lower vibrations with the higher ones, return to God, heaven, etc. (Hence one of the meanings of Tenchi Muyo- "This Side Up!")

"No Need for Heaven and Earth" because it's all unified, it's all one and Seto/Naja's actual goal, other than throwing stones to see how big the ripples are in the water as Sasami says, is to make so much love in the Universe through the unification of House Masaki with House Tatsuki, Kamiki, and Amame; plus Seina's union with his girls with their lineage and statuses and whatever she sent him to do in Paradise War; plus Tenchi's union with Mihoshi, Washu, and Ryoko; plus the factor of Kenshi being the multidimensional halfling prophesied to save Geminar and his union with the girls over there -- to ultimately break the seal on the higher dimensions and allow the unified field/God to reveal itself, as is the quest of the Chousin or rather Tenchi himself-he is the manifestation of the Akashic Record apparently, so he has purposed for love to be the way back to the astral sea.

The unification theory also makes me appreciate the 'it takes a village' theme that surrounds Kenshi's upbringing. He's a result of pretty much all of the madness that Kami Tenchi brought together. As well as how the universe that resulted from the two parallel words of Dual! combining at the end of the series is Tenchi's universe; the dual characters being reincarnated as GXP characters, oooh and the theory that Tokimi took Z's soul/astral pattern and reincarnated him into Kenshi (her being in the Kami section at Nobu and Rea's wedding, her being so involved in the Geminar scenario)

[rynakonanashi]

That satisfaction of watching something that's been on the list for the longgesssttt time.

While facing the duality of disappointment when finding a lack of fanworks of the source material.

But the ending was completely without question, excellent.

Just finished binge watching all of Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar today.  Had a complete kick to finally watch it after finding Tenchi Muyo Ryo-Ohki OVA 4 had been out for a year and didn’t even caught wind of it until finding it by chance.  OVA 4 also pretty much had some, vague, plot spoilers, same time gave insight to some of the back story, so as to be left not questioning as much oh who what where how.  

Over all, Geminar is on Crunchyroll, so check it out if you haven’t before!

Lastly, in order of my pick of best waifus of this series are, Aura, Yukine and Mexiah

Information on the origins of Tenchi Muyo! is revealed!

Original post

For the better part of three decades, co-creator of Tenchi Muyo!, Masaki Kajishima, has held fast to the claim that Tenchi Muyo! was “all in his head since high school.” However, for Comiket 100, interesting information has come out shedding light on what the origins of this juggernaut franchise actually are.

For the forthcoming Comiket, Kajishima will be releasing a redone version of his doujin The Night Before the Carnival: Heisei Edition 1, which released at Comiket 54 on August 16th, 1998. Released with brand new commentary, this new doujin is called The Night Before the Carnival: Original Edition 22.08.

Heisei Edition 1 – 1998 & Original Edition 22.08 – 2022

Across both doujins, we are introduced to characters “Masaki” (featured in red, said to be the daughter of the first emperor of Jurai), a blue haired character named “Lashara Moon” (A name reused in Photon: The Idiot Adventures), a character named “Lyon”, and probably the most recognizable character named “Koro-chan” (a Ryo-Ohki lookalike who is half cute cuddly character and half dragon, it’s name being used as cute creatures in Photon, as well as Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar). The character can also transform much as Ryo-Ohki would, and can use an ability called “Ghost” which lets him permeate matter (aka phase through walls). Sound familiar?

Masaki

Also of note, is that there is a young beast female character who is referred to as “Humanoid Ryo-san”. It is also implied that a female beast character can quickly mature and mate, a concept that Kajishima has apparently been wanting to do for a long time…

Koro-chan concepts and Lyon

“The story centers on the common inheritance-related troubles of aristocratic daughters who are running away from pursuers aiming to assassinate them. The protagonists are caught in the middle of the action, and as they run for their lives, they become completely savage.”

As mentioned in the doujin, these images were being made 10 years prior to the doujin’s original 1998 release, with the Lashara piece showing a date of June 16th, 1989, true to the “Heisei” part of its name.

Lashara Moon and Humanoid Ryo-san

Despite Kajishima’s claims to the contrary, this new information of his actually corroborates what Hayashi said in an interview from 1994, that Tenchi Muyo! was nothing more than “idle discussion” between himself and Kajishima in ’90, and gives us an interesting view into some of the ideas Kajishima cannibalized from this to use later in Tenchi and beyond.

One year after these concepts were drawn, a job working on AIC’s Iczer-3, and merging his ideas with Hayashi’s and others’, and Tenchi Muyo! as we know it was born.
