DVD Reviews of Tenchi Muyo GXP Box Set
DVD Review: Good Series, Horrible Package
Summary: 4 Stars
GXP is not about Tenchi Misaki. Instead it focuses on Seina, a teenage boy and friend of Tenchi's who accidently becomes involved with the Galaxy Police. Girls flock to him, he remains awkward... basically it's keeps with the same harem aspect as Tenchi but expands upon it in a different setting and story. Throw in a few cameos from the original Tenchi gang and Seina's very own Space Pirate Ryoko to contend with and you have yourself an entertaining, comedic show that suppliments the Tenchi universe while standing alone as a series. I decided to rewatch the original Tenchi Muyo! OVA before moving on to GXP and then to Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-oh-ki. For those of you who plan to watch Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-oh-ki I suggest watching this as it expands upon Ryo-oh-ki's supporting cast more. If you are a Tenchi fan this is a must buy.
However, the reason I deduct one star from the review is because of the shoddy packaging. As another reviewer has already stated the entire boxset is made out of PAPER. No plastic is evident whatsoever. Due to this my GXP boxset was crushed in transit despite being loaded with protective air bags. Though the boxset itself is interesting and not like any boxset layout I've seen before there is a reason for it. I like to think of it as a pop up book gone wrong that only inhibits one from easily turning the "pages" to get to the next disc. Also, out of the 8 discs my fourth disc was heavily scratched. I immediately stuck it in my PS3 and played around with it and it seems to work fine but it does look like it's been through heck though I had just opened it from it's original packaging wrap.
Ultimately, I am happy with the series and with the price I paid for it ($16.00). If I had paid more I would have been more upset about the crushed boxset and the scratched disc but since the disc is playable and the boxset still ... somewhat holding my discs in it's odd paper-y little way I accept it and suggest that you give it a try. Just don't expect it to be in prestine condition, even if it's new.
Description of Tenchi Muyo GXP Box Set
"Tenchi Muyo! GXP takes the original and doubles the hijinks, triples the hanky-panky and quadruples the zaniness."--- Anime InsiderSeina Yamada is your common 15 year old boy with one uncommon ability: bad luck. He can?t get through a day without causing serious harm to himself and those around him. So what in the universe do two gorgeous Galaxy Police officers want to do with him? It certainly isn?t for his hand eye coordination!
Catch the adventures of Seina and his harem in their misadventures throughout the galaxy!
Contains 8 discs with over 650 Minutes of Space Madness!
Seina Yamada, the hero of the adventure-farce Tenchi Muyo GXP (2002), is a one-man destruction derby. When he walks by, cell phones disconnect and machinery breaks down. A succession of misunderstandings sends Seina to the Galaxy Police Academy, where Mihoshi and Kiyoni trained in the Tenchi adventures. Seina says he knows Tenchi Masaki and visits the planet Jurai, but none of the main characters from the original continuity appear. Nor do the filmmakers recapture the mixture of romantic comedy, slapstick high jinks, and sci-fi adventure that make Tenchi so popular. GXP is an unremarkable fan-service comedy that's closer in tone to Steel Angel Kurumi than Tenchi Universe. Voluptuous women chase 15-year-old Seina, although what they see in him isn't clear. Resident babes Kiriko, Amane, and Erma--who are also his teachers--pursue him, leading to a spate of cleavage shots, panty shots, bath scenes, massages, come-ons, and nose bleeds. Like the original Tenchi, Seina turns out to be a long-lost Prince of Jurai: He summons a variation on the magical Lighthawk Wings while piloting a billion-year-old mecha he finds on the planet Wau. Tenchi Muyo GXP will appeal to devotees of fan-service jiggle comedies, but viewers expecting a continuation of the long-running Tenchi franchise will be disappointed. (Rated TV PG: risqué and toilet humor, nudity, alcohol use, comic violence) --Charles Solomon
