The best thing to ever have TENCHI written on it!

Tenchi Forever! is perhaps the best thing that ever had Tenchi's name on it. For once, the entire Tenchi crew is taken on a trip that explore their emotions and feelings. There is no action, no fighting, and its light on humor, but its supposed to be that way. That's what makes this movie unique from the others. Ryoko and Aeka are forced to work together and Tenchi is finally pushed toward choosing between them. This movie makes me cry every time I see it. The animation is beautiful, although you do find yourself wishing for a glimpse of the Tenchi Muyo! TV series animation, but this is great in its own right. I perfectly wonderful movie. 10 out of 10. Its just great.

beautiful

An achingly beautiful work, the perfect end to the Tenchi series. It got mixed reviews in the US it looks like, and it is in fact a lot different than the series, but it's still an incredible work. If you watched Tenchi more for the humor and the action, you might want to pass on it. If you watched it for the characters and interactions between them, however, you'll probably enjoy Tenchi Forever a lot more. The last few scenes are especially poignant; I'm a (supposedly) tough New York cynic-type of person, but I had tears in my eyes as the ending credits rolled by.

Tenchi is taken to a dream world

This is the last Tenchi movie produced, and could well be the last Tenchi Muyo! anime ever. And thankfully, it leaves one satisfied. This movie is far different from the other two, with Tenchi dissapearing for six months and his family searching for him only to find he has been taken into a dream world by a mysterious girl named Haruna. This movie is a lot of fun, with great music and animation. It may have split the Tenchi fans in half, but for me at least this was a great entry in the series.

Say it isn't so!!

ok, overall, they give this one an 8, but the first one a 7.4??? what the hell's up with that?? this is a very depressing movie. the love triangle between aeka, ryoko, and tenchi is, well, not as strong as it is with the other series and movies, the character development was good, but it didn't make up for the aeka, ryoko domination in the movie. geez, this is so disappointing and this is the last we will see of tenchi!!! can things get worse??

Not like other Tenchi films

The various Tenchi Muyo series have always been known for their screwball comedy. The other Tenchi movies have also been a source of comedy, but mixed a good bit of drama in as well. This particular Tenchi film is incredibly dramatic, centering on Ryoko and Ayeka's love for Tenchi. While this is a good movie, the film is unfortunately underrated for the lack of comedy, which while unfair, shouldn't be totally unexpected. The film is very good and should not be judged on the basis of the shows that came before it.

Trivia
This marks the last time that Petrea Burchard would provide the English voice for Ryoko before being replaced by Mona Marshall for the 3rd Tenchi OVA and the Tenchi Muyo GXP series.

Goofs
On the home video releases under the American studio credits, "Los Angeles" is misspelled.

Quotes
Ryoko: Tenchi, you big fat head! Where the hell are you?
Aeka: That's right! How could you leave a wonderful princess like me? I'm here waiting for you!
Ryoko: Forget about her, just come back to me! We'll ditch Aeka and then we can play!
