No Need for Tenchi . . . Seriously
The latest entry in the Tenchi Muyo! franchise, Hitoshi Okuda's manga series continues the adventures of half-alien high schooler Tenchi Masaki and his all-alien, all-female entourage. All your favorite space gals are here: space pirate Ryoko, Juraian princesses Ayeka and Sasami, mad scientist Washu, ditzy space cop Mihoshi, and fuzzy cabbit (cat/rabbit hybrid) Ryo-oh-ki (Sorry, Kiyone fans!). While Tenchi Muyo! fans can expect more out-of-this-world action/comedy goodness, Alien Nation provides enough background info for newcomers to jump in.
In fact, almost every chapter of this first volume focuses on each of Tenchi's roommates. But first, a rich girl tries to expose the gang in order to have Tenchi to herself. Then, freeloader Ryoko goes job-hunting to pull her own weight. Ayeka gets a chance to go on a date with Tenchi. A major bakery chain wants Sasami's delicious carrot cake. Mihoshi crashes her spacecraft in the lake (again). Washu beefs up security in the Masaki household following a break-in. Finally, little Ryo-oh-ki tries to adjust to a sexier adult form to be able to go out with Tenchi.
Speaking of which, where's Tenchi in all this? Ms. Okuda tells the reader not to call Tenchi a minor character. Ah, but he is (at least in this volume). When our hero isn't farming or agonizing over the repeated destruction of his house, he's offered as a prize in contests where he dates the winner (whether he wants to or not). Fortunately, this manga's seems entertaining enough while giving the poor guy a break.
So it seems that this franchise has chalked up yet another victory for the home team. Pick up this manga and you'll see why the Tenchi juggernaut cannot be stopped!
This manga is rated T for Teen: Violence
Ryoko's job
The All-New Tenchi Muyo is a great way to introduce the characters! First, there's Tenchi Masaki, the earth-boy that's half-alien. Ryoko, former pirate. Ayeka, the prim princess of Jurai and her little sister, Sasami. Washu, the 20,000-year-old genius. Ryo-oh-ki, the 'cabbit' which has a love for carrots. The fun never ends when all these women vie for Tenchi's love. The high point of Alien Nation is when Ryoko goes to work at a fast-food place and blows it up.
The best manga series!!!!!
In this manga it has many different characters that are supposed to be aliens. Washu has created some of the characters like ryoko(?) There is Sasami the youngest that takes care of house work and there is Washu, Tenchi, Ayeka( sasami's older sister), and more. in all READ IT THIS MANGA SERIES ROCKS ^^
