The third OVA series continued the Tenchi Muyo OVA storyline with six episodes, followed by a special episode released in September 2005 that concluded the third OVA storyline. However, the second OVA series ended on a cliffhanger and it was not until nearly eight years later in 2003 that a third OVA series was distributed in Japan. The first series was so successful that a seventh special episode was released in September 1993, followed by a second OVA series with six additional episodes that begun distribution in September 1994 and lasted for one year until September 1995. The distribution of the first OVA series was originally started in September 1992 and released six episodes that lasted until 1993. In 2020, Crunchyroll acquired worldwide streaming rights (outside Asia) for the fourth and fifth seasons of the OVA. The first two OVA series were later licensed and distributed in North America by Pioneer Entertainment, with Funimation taking over the rights for the third series, and later taking over the rights for the first two OVAs. Initially released in 1992, it marked the beginning of the Tenchi Muyo! franchise, composed of several manga, OVAs, TV series, and other related media. Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar takes place in the same storyline but follows Tenchi’s younger half-brother, Kenshi, on Geminar.Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki ( 天地無用! 魎皇鬼, Tenchi Muyō! Ryōōki), known as simply Tenchi Muyo! in North America, is a collection of Japanese OVAs created by Masaki Kajishima and animated by AIC. It doesn’t follow the main characters of the series, though they do make cameo appearances. Tenchi Muyo! GXP is a parallel series to the Ryo-Ohki storyline. So this should be noted to avoid confusion. However, DVDs, Blu-Rays, and streaming sites will refer to it as the OVA series. The OVA series is also called “Ryo-Ohki” in online forums in line with the Japanese release. If you watched Tenchi Muyo on Toonami in the early 2000s, you watched the OVA series (series 1 and 2). The OVA series is made up of series 1 and 2 (13 episodes), and Ryo-Ohki is series 3 through 5 (17 episodes). The Tenchi Muyo! OVA and Ryo-Ohki series follow the same storyline and are comprised of five (5) series.
