posted on by Karen Ressler
An official Twitter account and website opened on Friday to announce a Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-4-Ki (4th Season) project.
The main cast, returning from Ai Tenchi Muyo!, includes:
- Masami Kikuchi as Tenchi Masaki
- Ai Orikasa as Ryōko
- Haruhi Nanao as Aeka
The website also announces a November 28 event in Takahashi in Okayama Prefecture. The event will focus on the most recent anime, Ai Tenchi Muyo!, as well as the newly-announced Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-4-Ki anime. The three main cast members, along with Ai Tenchi Muyo!'s Rui Tanabe (Rui Aoi) and Azusa Satou (Yuki Fuka), will attend the event.
Ai Tenchi Muyo! premiered last October. The city of Takahashi sponsored the series of shorts.
The Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-2-Ki (Second Season) OVA launched in 1994, and the Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-3-Ki (Third Season) OVA launched in 2003. They are both sequels to the 1993 Tenchi Muyo! Omatsuri Zenjitsu no Yoru! (Tenchi Muyo! The Night Before The Carnival) OVA, which is itself a sequel to the original 1992 Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki OVA. Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-3-Ki also inspired the spinoff Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki Dai-3-Ki Plus 1 (Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki: Final Confrontations) in 2005.
Geneon Entertainment and later Funimation Entertainment released Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki, Tenchi Muyo! The Night Before The Carnival, and Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-2-Ki on home video. Funimation also released Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki Dai-3-Ki and Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki: Final Confrontations.
