I haven't talked about the TM manga in a while...

I just discovered that the entire Tenchi Muyo manga series is easily available on Manga Fox. Hurrah! I own them all already, but this is very convenient if I have to quickly look up something for fic purposes or somesuch. Clicking a mouse is a bit easier than rummaging around my highly disorganized shelves

Ooo, time to reread Tenchi!

[morgeil]

:D!

The two runs are divided separately, btw:
No Need for Tenchi
The All New Tenchi Muyo

The Manga

I've always thought the Manga was second only to the OVA (and superior to Season III.) I own *almost* the entire set -- I like to collect things one at a time in clearance sales, used bookstores etc.

Yes, it is a pity Gohgei never re-appeared. (For that matter, neither did Ibara.) Interesting thought that Gohgei is going to marry a girl with a biological equivalent age of about fourteen, but an actual age of over eight centuries!

Thankfully, I have all 22 (plus Sasami Stories). Right now I've been slowly collecting the Japanese editions, as they have some rather fanastic color art by Okuka that wasn't included in the English editions.

I am forever miffed that the bloody wolf from Vol. 3 got a re-appearance in the second run, but Gohgei and Asahi didn't. C'mon! :P

It's a real shame it never got any sort of anime adaption. Getting to see Minagi, Yakage, Gohgei, Yume or really any Okuda character on screen would have been fabulous.

ETA: I also have the Detatoko Princess OVA DVD. It was an OVA adaption of one of Okuda's successful non-TM manga series. Oddly enough, the OVA got an English translation and dub, but the manga didn't.

Mogeil what are you doing? --I've never been on there before but I spent most of yesterday lost on Mangafox, reading something totally unrelated, now I want to read the Tenchi manga, and, and other stuff... It's been ages since i read any manga...oh god, my brain D:

[morgeil]

LOL I know how that goes. I get distracted and sucked into random things really fast. Lamprey would not want to go inside my head, the disorganized clutter would probably swallow her whole.

Still, thanks for the link! :) I am totally gonna re-discover Tenchi..my inner 13-year-old is glad!

Yes, you and I shall share another fandom! 'Twas my evil plan all along! *fist clench*
