Tenchi Muyou! Manatsu no Eve

Hey it's the incest Tenchi movie, where Demona from "Gargoyles" is the final boss! ...Sigh.

Somehow this one makes even less sense then the first film, unless you assume that everyone is drunk the whole time. But at least the sub voice acting is better. I think the dub delivered Yuzuha's last/second-to-last line better, though.

So Yuzuha had a crush on kid!Yosho, and got... banished when she was caught? And suddenly she spies on the Masaki gang in the present and decides to... create a person from her hair and the grandson of her crush? To infiltrate(?) the Masaki home and kidnap Tenchi? I get that killing ... Tenchi would upset Yosho but it seems like a really weird, long-winded way to get back at the guy.

If Yuzuha can communicate with Mayuka telepathically (during the fireworks scene), why does she need to communicate through the holographic tree thing? Also, why does Mayuka have to make out with Tenchi to teleport him? It's demonstrated that Yuzuha can teleport objects on her own at the beginning of the film when she steals Tenchi's hair. So... huh?

None of these people really know Mayuka. She's just... constantly obsessing over Tenchi, has no answer to any questions, frequently sexually assaults Tenchi... and that's it. Yet they all love her for some reason? I get it, don't hate on your fellow... humanoids... but like... ??? I mean from a franchise sense it makes sense that Tenchi would have that conversation mid-way through the film where he's like "you all came here randomly and I don't understand her either, so she's just like the rest of you".

It's just a generic OVA-like mess of a film that's not worth the time. There are a couple good TenchixRyoko scenes (excluding the time he slapped her 9_9) but that's... about it.

Not to give away too much of the story but Tenchi does a certain thing some would consider to be way out of character a few minutes into the movie.

Also a confused, controlled under-age MINOR sexually solicits her father figure. What the actual ****! I'm sure there were about a million other ways to go about achieving her masters goal than that.

Yeah the Tenchi Muyo series has always been on the sexy side and grouping a bunch of crazy weirdos together....but....

If I could give 0/10 I would. If I could have only unwatched it. I held out hope that it would have some redeeming ... feature. And maybe it does but watching a brain washed minor conduct incest was pretty unredeeming feature.
