Each Seris is ENTIRELY separate. They are complete other dimensions. Only the characters remain the same, and even that is all to a certain extent.<br>And where are you from? As the Sci-Fi Channel in America is different to that in England... <p></p><i></i>

Don't worry about asking questions - if nothing else, it helps to keep the conversation boiling over around here...<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>have i got the order of the series right?<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>Well, that's certainly the order in which they were made - although, as has already been stated, the storylines of the three series are completely unrelated.<br>Before you get confused, 'Tenchi Muyo' (with the exception of the Mihoshi Special) is often referred to here as the 'OAVs' (Original Animated Videos) - as this is the format that the series was originally released in, in Japan. 'Tenchi Universe' is the first Tenchi TV series shown in Japan, followed by TiT (or 'Shin Tenchi' - 'New Tenchi' - as it was known in its homeland).<br>The reason they are all different is that the TV series were made by different people from the original team behind the OAVs.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>is that it?<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>Until recently, yes. <br>Earlier this year, a new series called 'Tenchi Muyo GXP' started on Japanese TV. This is a continuation of the OAV, and will be followed next year by the Japanese release of the third series of the OAV.<br>GXP focusses on an all-new set of characters within the Galaxy Police, and the 3rd OAV will pick up directly after "Here Comes Jurai".<br>There are also two Tenchi manga series - 'No Need for Tenchi', which picks up after the OAVs; and 'All-New Tenchi Muyo', which... uh... also picks up after the OAV, but... uh... differently...<br>...<br>Oh yes, and there are also two Pretty Sammy spin-offs - but we tend not to discuss such things here...<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>cartoon channels really aren't that bothered about making the series ordered.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>Yup. Cartoon Network UK sucks - I wish Sci-Fi had never given up the rights to Tenchi...<br>Because of them, I've only ever seen the first ten episodes of TiT.<br>I must try to catch them on CNX at some point...<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>that mihoshi thing-is that the first film???<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>Nope, it was a "special project" that is non-canonical to any of the series, and acted as a pilot for the Pretty Sammy series.<br>Kiyone doesn't exist in the OAV - in fact, in the OAV, Kiyone is Tenchi's mother's name...<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>what the first one about<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>The first film, 'Tenchi Muyo in Love', is based mainly on Universe, and focusses on Tenchi and co. travelling back in time in order to stop a monster called Kain, who intends to kill Tenchi's mother before she meets his dad (not that it's a Back to the Future rip-off or anything...). It's not available on video or DVD in Europe (mainly because Pioneer hates us), and the TV rights are tangled between Cartoon Network and Sci-Fi (kinda...), but a manga version is presented in 'No Need for Tenchi' no. 7.<br>Incidentally, the third film, 'Tenchi Forever', is basically a conclusion to 'Tenchi Universe'.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>does anyone watch the anime stuff on the sci-fi channel?<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br>Yup.<br>Evangellion is keeping me awake at night, while 'Martian Successor Nadesico', and the original manga 'Nadesico' are fast becoming favourites of mine.<br>Blue Gender is very meh, and the first 10 minutes of Legend of the Overfiend warped my fragile little mind last week...<br><br><br>Oh yeah, welcome to the board! <p>---------------------<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> "What a waster, what a fuckin' waster, you pissed it all up the wall..."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - The Libertines</p><i></i>

Yes welcome to Neelick's no need for a name! Please stay here with us for a while. Asking questions is fine, and no one is going to give you a hard time about it as you can see. Nice little dissertation Jiggly. The only thing I would add is that there is also the Pretty Sammy series out there. It is quite different from Tenchi Muyo, but uses the same characters playing different roles.<br><br>BTW, you've only seen the first three volumes of STM Jiggly? If you really want to see the rest, I have the series on VHS and I could make copies of the last five volumes and ship them to you. <p><center><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="95%" id="AutoNumber1" height="113"><tr><td width="50%" height="113" align="center"><i><font size="3" face="Times New Roman" color="#FF0000">Though I dream, cry, and get hurt, and reality approaches now, frantically, I can't lose my place in life and my self-worth just to protect myself.</font></i><br><a href="http://pub49.ezboard.com/banimecommunity71285"><img border="0" src="http://users.adelphia.net/~henheart/images/animecomm1.jpg" width="138" height="132"></a><br><b><a href="http://pub49.ezboard.com/banimecommunity71285">Anime Community</a> Where Luna's body went.</b><br><b><a href="http://pub92.ezboard.com/bmidnightlagoonmessageboard">Midnight Lagoon</a> Tenchi Muyo! </b> </td><td width="50%" height="113" align="center"><img border="0" src="http://users.adelphia.net/~henheart/images/utenagroup2.jpg" align="center" width="410" height="246"></td></tr></table></center></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub19.ezboard.com/btenchimuyo79943.showUserPublicProfile?gid=mjhennessey>mjhennessey</A> at: 11/14/02 12:38:17 pm<br></i>

Yup, Chibi also apears when Ryoko apears on the roof-top after Tenchi fell asleep in school ^_^ And there is a reason for this ^_^ Chibi was found by Tenchi half dead, so he tried to nuse him/her back to health but he couldn't because s/he was so injured/ill. So Ryoko, still inside the cave, used her power to keep the cat alive. However when she called Ryo-Ohki back she needed the energy again, and moved it into Ryo-Ohki, that is why she is half cat ^_^ So basicly Ryoko controled the life force of Chibi which is why she made him/her appear on the roof top ^_^ <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.Lindenssite.btinternet.co.uk/Ezboard/Sigpic6.jpg" style="height:239;width:319;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.fairplay-campaign.co.uk"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.lindenssite.btinternet.co.uk/Images/Banners/Fairplay.gif" style="border:0;height:72;width:500;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.lindenssite.btinternet.co.uk">Visit my Final Fantasy Site</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> and <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub61.ezboard.com/bcomputergamesandanime"> My Board</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> ^_^</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
