Amazon.com The broadcast series Tenchi Universe (1995) remains the silliest and, probably, the funniest entry in the popular Tenchi Muyo! ("No Need for Tenchi!") franchise. Tenchi Masaki seems like a normal high school kid, living near the family shrine in Okayama. But any semblance of normalcy is shattered by the arrival of the outrageous space pirate Ryoko, followed by bubble-brained Galactic Police Officer Mihoshi. They're joined by Princess Ayeka of the planet Jurai and her sister Sasami; Mihoshi's long-suffering partner, Kiyoni; and batty super-genius Wasshu. Life is soon "like a carnival," as Tenchi says in a rare understatement. Tenchi's grandfather turns out to be the long-lost crown prince of Jurai. When Kagato seizes the throne, Tenchi must defeat him in a dramatic confrontation between good and evil. Before the battle, the plot careens along merrily, pausing for a trans-galactic beauty pageant and a harvest festival that's engulfed in a sea of pink goo when Mihoshi tries to operate a cotton-candy machine. At the end of the adventure, Tenchi sighs for the days when "life was like a carnival," but the peace that reigns in Okayama won't last. The Tenchi series established the anime genre of the harem comedy--all six women from outer space are after Tenchi. Many other series have followed the formula, but few, if any, have been as much fun. The new slim pack takes up about one-fourth the shelf space of the original eight discs. (Rated 13 and older: cartoon violence, alcohol use, brief nudity, risque humor) --Charles Solomon
Product Description Ryoko the Dreaded Space Pirate, Mihoshi the Galaxy Police officer, Ayeka the crown Princess of Jurai, and Washu the Greatest Scientific Genius in the Universe! What could these women of interstellar importance possibly have in common? Causing one ordinary high school boy to miss class... Come join the fun as Tenchi Masaki attempts to act as mediator to these out-of-this-world characters as they all fight for Tenchi's attentions. How much excitement can one guy take?

Tenchi Universe: Collection June 12, 2007 Audrey J. Williams 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Geneon has done an amazing job putting this out on a boxset i was waiting for them put a new one out since the old one one is out of print and buying all the singles would be expensive great buy!!!
Tenchi Universe is the bomb! August 8, 2007 Jeffrey R. Grimes 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This collection has all 26 episodes in one box. No worries about leaving you hanging, its all here. This comedy series pushes the envelope without breaking it. All of the regular characters are here, with same voices from the OAV. A different continuity than the OAV, but enjoyable nonetheless. I recommend this to all Tenchi fans, especially to fans of Kiyone.

A swell comedy September 2, 2007 Linda K. Mochty (Midland MI) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I remember watching this anime many years ago and enjoying it, i hope to buy this series soon to relive some very missed nostalgia.
Out of all the Tenchi stuff floating around id say this one was the most tolerable and possibly best of the bunch. Check this out if you like comedy series and more specifficly Harem anime.
