Tenchi Muyo OAV 3

Pretty Impressive section. Several mistakes though. Noboyuki and Mayuka are misspelled in several places.

Also, Tenchi is actually two 6 episode OAV's with two Specials. Episode 7 is the "Night Before the Carnival Special" and then there is the Mihoshi Special that the article mentioned.

And depending on who you talk to, the Mihoshi Special is sometimes counted as part of the OAV continity and sometimes not. (Which means Kiyone may or may not be part of the OAV).

Also, I was upset that there was no mention of Tenchi Muyo! GXP which is part of the OAV continuty and no mention of Magical Pretty Sammy OAV or Magical Project S TV.

So, you've been grossly mislead if you thought this article contained all of the complexity that is Tenchi.

Most commonly this power is manifested as energy blades; in the original OVA series, these energy blades are referred to as light hawk blades.

In the OVA Tenchi's mother is not Yousho's wife but his daughter.

Her name was Kiyone.

The "blades" mentioned in Keys description are actually called "wings" Light Hawk Wings.

"the Mihoshi Special" was a bonus stand alone pilot that was included with the original VHS "Collection" series that the then Pioneer LCD added to the two OVA's series. But it was produced and directed by a completely different team and based on the 12 volume fan-fic that the first OVA screen writer, Naoko Hasagawa, later wrote for publishing, (much to the displeasure of the original creator Mr. Masaki Kajishima.) It was a pilot for the "TV universe and also for Magic Girl Pretty Sammy" both of which later came to fruition. But it was never related to the OVA in any way apart from the character designs alone and Mr. K had nothing to do with any of them.

This was an error which somehow crept in during editing. The line you're referring to was supposed to say, ". . .married a local girl, by whom he had a daughter who became Tenchi's mother."

In the OVA, yes, but not in the TV series or first movie.

This one was my gaffe; I knew that, but must have gotten my circuits crossed thinking about Tenchi generating the sword blade.

Interesting. First time I have seen some of those details.

BTW, you're still listing "two specials" when there was only the one. Also I don't believe that the "Mihoshi Special "is available on the OVA DVD. Like I said it was only available as a "bonus" feature on the VHS Collection series, no longer available from Pioneer/Geneon. There was talk of it being apart of the Pretty Sammy DVD release, but didn't that get shelved, or cancelled?
