5.0 out of 5 stars Feels like a brand new series -
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2013

This being my favorite series between Tenchi Muyo, Universe and Tokyo (and the only one I didn't have on DVD) - I decided to take a chance and order this. The price is not bad considering it is a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack.

The sound quality is amazing. You can hear the voices crystal clear, the beautiful background music is vivid and the sound effects are booming. I'm currently watching the Blu-ray version, with the episodes automatically set to have the English voiceovers (a nice attribute for anyone who's owned Japanime discs and has constantly had to switched to English). However, the intro and ending credits are in Japanese writing.

The picture quality is standard. Perhaps the picture wasn't completely remastered in case it took away from the beautiful art? You'll notice the quality is the same when it was aired on Toonami. There are key scenes that you can tell you're actually watching a Blu-Ray edition (Tenchi running to the cave before he releases the 'demon', Ayeka's ship heading towards earth, etc). I'm watching the series on my small 32" flat screen television, and the picture does not completely take up my screen - having two black bars on both sides of the picture (which seems to be the worst feature). Basically, the Blu-Ray edition makes it capable of watching this series on any high definition television.

Now I never owned the OVA Series on DVD - I did continuously watch it's run on Toonami and owned the VHS versions, it seems like there are additional scenes added that answer some unknown questions (Ex. - Why Tenchi was on the school rooftop before Ryoko attacked, and why Tenchi's father was on the grass when Ryoko had to shrink the house) and some redone dialogue/new voices as well (The conversation between Tenchi and his friend about spending the summer with Mummys is completely redone, and Ryoko bragging about protecting Tenchi in the ship crash is much longer). The series also has much more sexual dialogue.

Overall 8/10. A wonderful collection for a great price, and a must for Tenchi fans old and new - and a great gift for any Japanime fanatic.

This is not a review on the show itself my headline should speak for itself this is my favorite anime since it 1st started airing in 2000 when I was entering my 2nd year of high school by time I finished high school I bought the DVD box set in 2003 now more than 11 years later I have the blu ray and I love every minute of it watching it in hd is like watching for the 1st time since this is a older anime it screen is 4X3 newer animes are 16X9 also this anime doesn't suffer from double images or ghosting say like sailor moon if I had some complaints it's that there are not really any special sure there's here come jurai 2 but you only get it in Japanese the old boxset and DVD had both English and Japanese they did not have the 3rd season I may get some s*** for this but I love that season come on funimation get ova 3 in blu ray make it happen will it stop me from giving it a 5 stars hell no this show is awesome.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Legendary Classic Anime
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2019

This is a must buy, the original 1999 THX DVD boxset use to go for over $199 used before this Blu Ray set. This is completely uncut and unfiltered, I grew up watching the censored kid friendly version of Tenchi back in the 90’s on Toonami. So even as an adult, you can enjoy rewatching the mature version of this series. The quality looks great on my 4k television, you will have to strech the picture manually through your TV settings since its 4:3 ratio. Modern Anime just doesn’t compare to this classic in my opinion. 5 stars, hopefully we can get a Blu Ray collection of Tenchi universe, In Tokyo and GXP.

I got a used copy, box had stains and open it up and product covered in finger prints would not play properly until I cleaned. But overall I'm happy it works fine now but don't understand why it said new then it became used. Maybe it was error who knows

I loved this series sense seeing it on toonami from the first minute I seen this it was the top 1 of the best anime on my list. Now I GET IT ON BLU-RAY!!! This will go great with my original collectors Ed I have of the same. I'd like to know though is this the limited edition or the standard? I check but amazon says nothing of this yet under the product description "The Limited Edition comes with a collectible art booklet." I'd still get this but would like to know. oh yea and to make it clear universe, and the Tokyo series have nothing to do with this one they were good in there on right "as creepy as Tokyo was" but this was still this best lineup of them all going all the way to gxp.

5.0 out of 5 stars How can you not love it?
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2013

Ok, let's be honest. The initial anime any of us watched during the 90's was Gundam, Outlaw Star, or just anything on Toonami via Cartoon Network. Tenchi Muyo was mine. I started watching it at 12 years old and fell in love. Almost 10 years later I am still in love and they just now release it. The quality is great, behind the scenes stuff and extras are spot on, and it's in Blu-Ray. My only complaint was that it came thru UPS and they botched the order up. But if you watched any Tenchi Muyo this collection is worth the investment. It's likely we will never see the powers at be re-release this series again, so get it by yesterday.

Been wanting to get this for so long, it was the first one I had seen of Tenchi. My only issue, which the seller has no control over, is the Omake on the bonus features wasn’t dubbed like he DVD version was that my friend owns. I was really disappointed since I like the dubbed voices and the Omake is my favorite part. Other than that great buy!!

I love this show so much! Saw this anime on toonami back in the 90s and have been a fan ever since then. The HD transfer is amazing in comparison to the original DVDs. Still waiting for the Tenchi Universe and Tenchi in Tokyo collections to be released in bluray.

I wish we would also get the Mihoshi Special and Magical Project S series (English Dub) on bluray as well.

The reason why this only have 1 star is because I had to go out and rebuy this because it doesnt state on the description that it only played on a particular zone (not uk) which is extremely misleading. I brought this as a gift luckily enough the person it brought for kept it as it could be seen as a collector's piece but from a buyer perspective it should be labelled correctly so it doesnt happen to anyone else.

Awesome service and fast delivery. Wanted to own this set every since I watched it in the early 90’s. I knew my wife would love it and she did, the remastered version into Bluray is amazing. Funimation did an incredible job on this. This is a must buy for any Anime fan. My Wife and I sat down to watch this and I bought a bottle of Sake for us to drink whenever Ryoko would drink. I knew the Anime but my wife had no idea and we had a great time watching. Action, romance and comedy rolled into a perfect series. A++ for the seller for fast shipment and even faster delivery. Great price and one of if not the best anime series. Cheers
