Product description

EPISODES #11, 12 & 13:
"Time and Space Adventures Part 1 - 3"

"With this device, you can change the world the way you want!"

Washu's latest invention is the Dimensional Cause & Effect Controller. This outrageous device can completely change the world into whatever people want it to be. Everyone rushes to input their wishes into this Controller, driving it mad! Now Tenchi and company are at the mercy of the Controller as they wander from one parallel world to another.

Princess Ayeka, in her parallel world, orders Mihoshi and Kiyone to eliminate Ryoko, the demon of Rashomon. Sasami, as the Magical Girl, Pretty Sammy, saves the day for Tenchi at his school. The same school which was supposed to be a peaceful stage for a sweet love comedy! Ryoko, in her world, seeks a new life in a northern region where a group of kind and warm-hearted people wait to help her.

Mihoshi, in her world, is a housewife leading a carefree life as Tenchi's wife. Ryoko, in another parallel world, has Tenchi as her gangster partner so she can live the action-filled dangerous life she's always desired. When all of these world are combined, it's no wonder that our story becomes a blind roller coaster ride! Washu is the only hope we have to help bring this mayhem back to normal...

The TIME/SPACE ADVENTURE is based on a CD drama of the same title. Due to the limited capacity of the CD, however, this "Heian Era" chapter had to be cut out of the final edition. It was a pity especially because the story takes place in a world where Ayeka has her wishes come true. Now we are pleased to be able to share it with our TV series viewers. A happy ending!

The world where Kiyone has her wishes come true. This story is not included in the CD either--it is original with the TV series. By the way, have you noticed that everyone cast in her world is happy if, and only if, Kiyone herself takes all the hardships with ultimate patience? She is the victim, indeed, oh, poor thing!

Mihoshi's world. What a family she has! This is not a parody of the world of SAZ?E-SAN, oh no! (Even though I don't blame any first-time viewer for believing so). Anyhow, it makes me wonder why Kiyone always looks to me to be the most unfortunate one of all...

To conclude the episode, Ryoko has her wishes come true in her world. Whereas she was cast as a space pirate in the CD version, she is now an American gangster here. The emotional quality of the last sequence of this episode foreshadows what we will see in the last episode of the series. By the way, wouldn't you have liked to see Washu's world as well?

Notes

  1. ↑ In the second paragraph, it says "Ryoko, in her world, seeks a new life in a northern region where a group of kind and warm-hearted people wait to help her." This should be Kiyone, not Ryoko.
  2. ↑ Sherry Lynn's name is misspelled as "Shery Lynn".
  3. ↑ Unlike the rest of the box, the label title includes a roman numeral and "Tenchi Muyo" with the full title being "The Tenchi Universe Collection IV: Tenchi Muyo Time Travel & Space Adventures".
