 An official website has opened for a fourth season of the original anime Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki. The series is the original work of the Tenchi Muyou! franchise, which spans three OVA seasons, four spin-off TV series, and various movie, manga, and light novel adaptations. Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki was created by Masaki Kajishima, and 20 episodes were released as OVAs between 1992 and 2000. The series was previously licensed in North America by Pioneer Entertainment (later Geneon USA) until the business unit closed in 2007. FUNimation Entertainment rescued that license in 2008 after reaching an agreement with Geneon to distribute its titles. Further information will be revealed at a fan appreciation event to be held on November 28, 2015. It is a double event to commemorate the recent spin-off Ai Tenchi Muyou! and the new Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki series. Two cast members from the original series, Masami Kikuchi and Ai Orikasa, will be featured as guests for the Ryououki segment of the event alongside Haruhi Nanao, who starred in Ai Tenchi Muyou!

| Eh not sure how I feel about this. It's been a very long time since I've seen anything related to the Tenchi franchise outside of the shorts so... |
 |
| This is rather surprising. So we don't know how it'll relate to the previous series? |

Ckan said: Not sure about Rumiko but TM is supposed to be the grandfather of harem series where the lead gets the girls because of his skills, not just because he's the MC and a clumsy cretin.NicoZeta said: Not Rumiko?Tenchi Muyo is the main reason why Harem became a mainstream genre. I hope they have learned their lesson form that short flop that was released recently. |

| Yes! Finally! Love me some more Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki |
| It is like christmas all over again. |
| Never understood why they made that Ai Tenchi Muyo shit, it has absolutely nothing to do with the original OVA series... but hey having a fourth OVA announced is fucking awesome. Let's hope they can get the majority of the original cast together, Orisaka Ai killed it as Ryoko <3 |
 |
| Tenchi Muyo was the 2nd anime I ever watched, so it will always have a special place in my heart. As long as I get more Ryoko, I'll be happy. She's still one of my favorite anime characters. |
| Watched Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki a long time ago, but never was a big fan of it. Not sure how to react, hope it's nothing like the short we recently got. |
 |
| gotta marathon the other seasons now when i have the time :( |
 |
| RAGE!!!!! One of my favorite series ever. I do hope that they incorporate Kiyone into this as I absolutely love her character. She's one of the main reasons as to why I love the Tenchi Universe series as well. |

| We knew it was coming. Frothing anticipation is….tentative. It could be a bust like 3rd OVA. Let's see what you guys can do. Can they Bring back the magic of the original OVA? Somehow I'm doubtful. |
 |
| isn't AIC pretty much dead? wonder if another studio (e.g. IMS) is doing this |
| Nice can't wait to see more of Ryoko. |
 |
| COOL!!! - one of my all-time favorite series. Hopefully they can bring it back to the glory of the first two seasons - the third wasn't all that great (which of course is understood, seeing that the original creator died). |

Masaki Kajishima, the original creator is not dead and still alive. Anyway, anything other than the main OVA series is non-canon. |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |

Not quite, series (GXP, Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari) , Omatsuri Zenjitsu no Yoru manga (by Kajishima) (especially the Omatsuri Zenjitsu no Yoru Omake Ban is pretty important one manga itself AND after words by the man himself) and novels that stemmed from OVA are all part of the canon. Kajishima go all the way expanding the universe and never stopped, although some of it just random bits and blips here and there. |

| Good to see the Ryououki coming back. Hope it will be fun. |

What I meant is that Tenchi Universe, Tenchi in Tokyo, and the movies are not part of the main OVA series. Sorry about that, I should have been a bit more specific. |
