Ah, while we're still on the topic, is there any reason to watch the OVAs for Eve no Jikan if you plan on watching the movie? I heard the movie covers all the story presented in the OVAs, but are there any additional scenes I'd be missing out on if I chose to not watch them?

No the movie is 100% everything, it even has more. I did enjoy it episodically though, more time to digest each story. Of course there was no choice back then and certainly a lot of time.

Use it as an excuse to watch it twice. It's worth watching at least two times.

New pv for new PA Works show. Looks like a pretty laid back sol drama, but other than that there doesn't seem to be much else to the story. But, they did make Nagi no Asukara work so I'm still curious..Clash posted:No the movie is 100% everything, it even has more. I did enjoy it episodically though, more time to digest each story. The pacing feels better to me watching it episode by episode, and like you said, that pause give you time to think about each one separately. I never did finish the movie though; I should go see all the stuff that was added.

A new Tenchi Muyo series is happening in the form of 5 minute shorts, presumably because every 4-5 years they have to remind everyone that yes, Tenchi exists.

The original Tenchi OVAs were some of the first anime I saw (probably the first sub), but I couldn't get more than a couple episodes into the third set. I don't even know how it ended, partially because I'm not sure I want to know.

Well, Tenchi ends up marrying like everyone and it turns out the Masaki family tree is more of a family bush. Seriously, like every character is related.

Nate RFB posted:They released the third/final OVA after like 10 years back in 2005 and it absolutely sucked. I can't imagine there's anything left in that cow. Its fine! the story just moved on to the Younger Brother and sent him to a Parallel Universe so we can get massive references without confirming or denying anything whatsoever.

I guess it'd all depend on how you define harem, though I want to say Tenchi at the very least started what people think of when they hear "harem anime" today.

A bit late to the party but Patema Inverted was really amazing. I guess I should finally watch Time of Eve now.

I don't know about that because aside from Sakura and Oyuki no one other than Lum has any interest in Ataru. Even then Sakura dumps him and Oyuki was just a one time thing never brought up again. You could count it as the first reverse harem though, think about it. All the men in the show have at lest an infatuation with Lum and most of the female characters are there because of Lum. Ranma might be a better fit but even then the series isn't focused on Ranma's relationships. They're a thing but it's more about wacky martial arts or other craziness and frankly Ranma himself isn't really a dull character. No for my money Zorak is right. Tenchi was the first to bring all the elements of a harem show together. The dull main character, the laser focus on their relationships, the multiple partners vying for their affection and their either refusal on inability to make a choice. Ataru wants all the girls, Lum only wants Ataru and Ranma just wants all the crazies to leave him a lone. Tenchi however is just a leaf in the wind blowing to wherever.

There was also Ah My Goddess, which also predates Tenchi Muyo, even though not all the heroines fall in love with the main character. I want to say Ah My Goddess might be the one that set up a lot of trends that the harem genre has now. Tenchi is just remembered in the West due to being one of those early Toonami shows.

Well not all the heroines in Tenchi are into him, either. Mihoshi and Kiyone certainly aren't, Washu isn't usually used as a love interest either, neither is human Ryo-ohki (what? in a modern anime she totally would be). And Tenchi's still a harem anime. WRT to Goddess, I guess you could also object that Keiichi has an obvious interest in Belldandy but there are plenty of harem shows where it's clear there's a main love interest that the guy will wind up with in the end. It's not like Keiichi is actually making moves on Belldandy. All that said, I suppose it's fair to say that Tenchi really perfected the modern mold, even if it had precursors.

I have not noticed that this was mentioned, but Crunchyroll put The Princess and the Pilot up about a week or so ago. I watched it a few days ago. In the same world as The Pilot's Love Song from last season (which mostly sucked).

Also late to the Patema Inverted party, but that was an excellent piece of film. Only complaints are that the villain was a little contrived and they could have used a little bit better exposition at the end. I figured it out well enough, but I could see how somebody could misunderstand it. Especially the manufactured sky. On another note, it's too bad the No Game No Life thread kinda turned to poo poo and had to get gassed, since it's entering the awesome mindfuckery arc.
