Tenchi 3rd Season Confirmed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the and-an-ova-in-a-pear-tree dept.

Bonker writes: "Anime News Network Says: The Tenchi Muyo! Galaxy Police TV/OVA series (also known as Tenchi Muyo! GXP) as well as the first episode of the third Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki OVA series are scheduled to be released in Spring, 2002 in Japan." Both very exciting bits of news for anyone who happens to be a fan of Tenchi and the gals. I'm especially excited to see another OVA since those are far superior to the television shows.

    The Open Directory Project has a category for Tenchi. It seems to be fairly well maintained and it has a listed editor, but there are many other Anime titles, many of which are quite good, that are not so lucky.

    I urge you to look through, find an series that you like and apply to be an editor.

    Since Tenchi is such a hot property in the U.S. and Pioneer is probably going to be doing dubbing, licensing for AIC, look for this to be out fairly rapidly. I'd give it 3-6 months after Japanese release... Literally just enough time to get english-language VHS and DVD pressed.

    And curse you, CmdrTaco, for getting me hooked on Tenchi.

    The worst part is trying to describe it to someone without sounding like a geek freak.

    "There's this guy, Tenchi, and he's just this guy, but he lives with all these mega galactic babes, for no real reason, and there's this cat rabbit that turns into a spaceship, and there was this neat arty episode where it's snowing and Tenchi catches a cold and the talking wardrobes show Princes Susami where the magic flower is and she uses it to make him better... no, wait, it's really cool... come back!" ;)

    Actually, on the topic of learning aids...

    Each of the 6 episodes of FLCL comes on it's own DVD. Unusually, for a Japanese product, it actually has an english subtitle track, except for the first one. Apparently, Gainax discovered after releasing the first DVD, that by adding an english track allowed them to get some tax reduction for producing 'educational' tools for learning english. Of course anyone who watches FLCL is more likely to have their brain melted than learn english - but it is a good trend: Studios get better profit margins, and the fans get to see it as soon as it's released.

    I hope it catches on.
