In what way? TU's nothing spectacular, but at least it's not spectacularly bad like Shin Tenchi. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/ryoko2.gif" style="border:0;height:81;width:73;"alt="Ryoko Hakubi"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/akaijuyon.gif" style="border:0;height:20;width:91;"alt="Red XIV"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/tenchi2.gif" style="border:0;height:95;width:63;"alt="Tenchi Masaki"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/tenchi_ryoko_wedding.jpg" style="border:0;height:280;width:420;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>The Happy Couple</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

At least Tokyo tried a little originality and didn't just throw little things like plot and character development out the window. <p>---------------------<br><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>PEACE AND CAKE!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-size:xx-small;"><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.dimensionalstars.com/jiggs.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Please excuse that outburst, I'm a little scared, I don't know what came over me.

The problem was that they tried to change too much, plot, story, characters, artwork, everything. Except for the character names, STM has no other similarities with the previous Tenchi material. TU really wasn't so bad, so to make a second TV season, all that needed to be done was come up with a new plot and story and leave everything else alone. <p><div align="center"><style>.siggy { border-top : 2px solid #EAEAFF;border-right : 2px solid #000084;border-bottom :2px solid #000000;border-left : 2px solid #A4A4FF;background-image: url('http://www.henheart.com/ezstuff/Greenstone.bmp');}.siggy td {background-color: transparent;}.siggy a:link { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; }.siggy a:active { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; }.siggy a:visited { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; }.siggy a:hover { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; } </style><center><table span class="siggy" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="20%" id="AutoNumber2"><tr><td><table border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="20%" id="AutoNumber2"><tr><td align="center" valign="top" width="792" colspan="3"><img border="0" src="http://www.henheart.com/ezstuff/washu18a.jpg" width="450" height="225"></td><tr><td align="center" width="33%"><b><a href="http://pub92.ezboard.com/bmidnightlagoonmessageboard">Midnight Lagoon</font></a></b></td><td align="center" width="33%"><b><a href="http://www.henheart.com/yabbse/">Henheart's Universe</font></a></font></b></td><td align="center" width="33%"><b><a href="http://pub116.ezboard.com/banimecommunity71285">Anime Community</font></a></b></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></center></div></p><i></i>

I really liked Universe and the OVA, so for me it was more like a tie between the two. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://image1ex.villagephotos.com/pubimage.asp"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

There was character development in Shin Tenchi? Making all the characters, right from the very start, virtually unrecognizable in terms of personality does not constitute character development. It constitutes character butchery. And the plot, while not as generic as TU's, was far worse in terms of execution. A super-powered child out for revenge as the main villain isn't a bad idea, but the 1-dimensional nature of the characters and the overall poor writing wrecked the story. Not to mention that the basic concept was handled infinitely better by Manatsu no Eve, which accomplishes more in 90 minutes than Shin Tenchi does in 13 hours. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/ryoko2.gif" style="border:0;height:81;width:73;"alt="Ryoko Hakubi"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/akaijuyon.gif" style="border:0;height:20;width:91;"alt="Red XIV"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/tenchi2.gif" style="border:0;height:95;width:63;"alt="Tenchi Masaki"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/redxiv/tenchi_ryoko_wedding.jpg" style="border:0;height:280;width:420;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>The Happy Couple</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

The artwork was another thing that perterbed me. he faces of the characters didn't have "the anime tang" feeling to it like OVA and even Universe had. The eyes were esp. bad, when a character whould turn their head, the eye would flatten out and so would their face. The mouth really bothered me, when a side shot of a characters face would apear when they speak, the mouth looks like its on the side of their face, no real demension. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.geocities.com/moshman8700/MoshmanSig.jpg "/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></p><i></i>

TiT was pure *evilness*.
