Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Tenchi and the gang are still on the run from the usurping junta on the planet Jurai, but the filmmakers seem to lose track of that story line in these three episodes. While Washu repairs the engines in "No Need for Hunger," Ryoko is dispatched to a nearby planet to buy groceries for the hungry crew. After eating, drinking, and gambling her way through the cash on hand, she robs the local branch of the Bank of Jurai--and brings the Galactic Police out in force. Sasami strikes up a friendship with Mirei, the lonely ghost of a little girl in episode 18. They share some special adventures, and Sasami's image appears in an old photograph of Mirei, indicating the strength of their bond. A pair of two-bit punks hijacks Kiyoni's spaceship Yagami--with Tenchi's father and grandfather still aboard playing chess--in "No Need for Runaways." Tenchi, Ryoko, Washu, Kiyoni, and Mihoshi pursue them in "Ryo-Oki"--leaving Ayeka and Sasami stuck with the bill at the fast-food restaurant where they'd stopped. Rated 13 Up for alcohol use and minor cartoon violence. --Charles Solomon

Product Description
Tenchi & Company's journey through space is complicated by low provisions, engine trouble, ghosts, and hijackers. On top of that, they still have to deal with the Galaxy Police!

3.0 out of 5 stars A nice DVD but basically just a bunch of filler episodes...., February 1, 2001

By	Takuya Arai (Lakewood, OH USA) - See all my reviews

Since this is disc 6 of the set, I'm writing this assuming that you own or at least have watched all of the previous discs leading up to this one...

Continuing where the first Tenchi in Space disc ended, the gang is still on the Yagami and wanted by the Galaxy Police. However, to my dissappointment the 3 episodes on this disc are essentially fillers. It's set in the same plot line but does basically nothing to advance the story.

In terms of the episodes on the disc, what can I say, it's a Tenchi Muyo! story. Ryoko acting the same way, Sasami being too nice and cute, and Mihoshi being the same dimwitted self. Don't get me wrong however. On it's own it is still entertaining as always and the 2nd episode on the disc, "No Need for Ghosts" is a nice diversion from the usual "Ryoko vs. Aeka with some explosions in the background" fare.

Unfortunately I guess I was kind of hoping for episodes that would give hints on just what's going on in Jurai and whatnot. In anycase, for any Tenchi fans out there that's been getting all of the other discs, there's no reason why you shouldn't get this one. The episodes are fun, the extras are the usual fair (line drawings and sketches), and besides, your collection will look weird if your missing one disc for no apparent reason.

4.0 out of 5 stars DVD number 6 in the Tenchi Universe., June 19, 2004

By	Michael Valdivielso (Alexandria, VA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Tenchi and the gang are still on the run and in this DVD we can to feel every painful moment of it. In the first story everything is going wrong; engine power is dropping and the food supply is low. Ryoko is given money and is told to go buy food. Of course she spends it on herself and decides to rob a bank to get more. So when Ryoko returns to the ship she has no food, but bags of money and a bunch of police ships on her tail. They flee.
In the next episode they find themselves in a bad region of space: a ship graveyard. And engine power is dropping again. This turns out to be a touching ghost story, a stand-alone story with no links to the rest of the series. Think of it as a break.
The last episode is another stand-alone, when runaways steal the Yagami, Kiyone's and Mihoshi's police ship. Of course half the Galaxy is hunting the ship, so soon the runaways find themselves the center of a massive man hunt. The kids freak out, push buttons and end up FIRING on the Galaxy Police (who fire back). Well, at least the gang is able to get some food, even if Ayeka and Sasami end up washing dishes for it. Of course the gang gets their ship back and the runaways are shot out into space in a life capsule.
While funny, the episodes don't really add to the over-all plot and I had to take away a point.

3.0 out of 5 stars No Need for a Ghost, June 20, 2002

By	Drez (Barberton, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews

The Tenchi Gang is still in space, making thier way to Jurai. Along the way, Sasami meets a ghost of a girl, two idiots that steal Yagami, and the search for food.
This DVD keeps the plot up, but doesn't speed it up. The Tenchi Gang has a long way to go to reach Jurai.
