2.0 out of 5 stars
False Advertisment, August 14, 2008
This review is from: Tenchi Muyo Ryo Ohki: Box Set The Complete Series (DVD)
It says on the cover that this is The Complete Series. It is in fact the last 7 episodes to a 20 episode series. AKA: You get ripped off.
The Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki series is in fact the first series in the Tenchi Muyo universe. It was released in 3 OVA seasons. The first season had 7 episodes in it, and the second had 6. Both of those seasons were played on Cartoon Network back in 2000 on Toonami. OVA Season 3 is what you get if you buy this item. It is simply the last 7 episodes to the entire series, along with some bonus material.

3.0 out of 5 stars
First part is great, the second part isn't so hot..., December 9, 2007
This review is from: Tenchi Muyo Ryo Ohki: Box Set The Complete Series (DVD)
So I waited, waited for years, and finally the new epsiodes came out. The first few episodes were great, fit nicely into the world established previously...and the characters were great.
Sadly, about halfway...things take a nose dive.
I sat through the last three or so epsiodes and while they had moments that were nice, over all they were a large disappointment.
The epic battle expected...isn't there. Its as if the writers got to the fight and realized they had nothing left. The plot suddenly falls apart, becoming disjointed and rather...confusing.
Over all I say a solid three stars, maybe 3 and a half. Still a good series over all, fans should get enough enjoyment from the good episodes to justify buying this.

You can't end Tenchi Masaki with this series it's criminal!!!, February 10, 2008
This review is from: Tenchi Muyo Ryo Ohki: Box Set The Complete Series (DVD)
You have to watch Tenchi Muyo GXP to get a better understanding of what is happening in this series although they try to explain its better if you watch GXP.
I really miss watching Tenchi especially after the last movie but this series has me scratching my head.
The animation is really cool with really great backgrounds but the writers invented some rather unusal plot points from out of way, way out there from left field which will leave us hard core fans going HUH?
Don't read past this point it has spoiler comments.
What happened to Kione, Mahoshi's more competent sidekick?
Why did they introduce Mahoshi's brother into the series?
You get a bunch of new characters but also some weirdness with Washu actually being a god of creation?
The new actress for Ryoko's voice takes a lot of adjustments they should have just paid the original actress more money or looked for someone else that sounded like the old Ryoko.
They introduce a new character that is supposed to be Tenchi's arranged marriage wife but then she's not and gets this dorky hair cut and it makes you want to shoot the plot director.
I hope they make another series or movie to help us forget this one.
