The stories center on four girls from outer space: Ryoko, the dangerous galactic criminal; Ayeka, the proper Jurai princess; her more practical little sister, Sasami; and Mihoshi, a bubble-brained Galactic Police Officer. Ayeka, Sasami, and Mihoshi, who were trying to capture Ryoko, find themselves living with her on Earth after an unplanned landing. All four of them are interested in Tenchi Masami, whose attraction has to be taken as a given--the viewer sees very little of him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Director Nobuhiro Takamoto keeps the action focused on the girls, whose adventures juxtapose interplanetary intrigue with such mundane difficulties as budgeting, keeping house, and cooking. Additional comedy is provided by Ryo-Ohki, Ayeka's spaceship, which has been transformed into a \"cabbit,\" a fuzzy cross between a rabbit and a cat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The animation is minimal, even by anime standards, although Takamoto sometimes uses the limits cleverly, e.g., reducing a group of roommates trying to borrow money to a clutch of begging hands. Many elements in the stories play off Shinto legends, references American viewers are not likely to recognize; in the U.S., \u003ci\u003eTenchi\u003c\/i\u003e plays like a cross between \u003ci\u003eThe Archies\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMy Favorite Martian\u003c\/i\u003e. In addition to the regular series, there have been TV specials and direct-to-video adventures for Tenchi and the gang. \u003ci\u003e--Charles Solomon\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 013023014299\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0013023014299\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e english\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e DVD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45964783714338,"sku":"TQ-P5H4-W6SQ","price":50.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/5137VTQ7BXL.jpg?v=1783661226","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/tenchi-in-tokyo-v2-a-new-friend-import","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
