First episode:

Impressions:
I don't want to spoil it for anyone.... so I say the animation is better than I expected.  There is less time than I expected, if the current credits hold, they only give 3.5 minutes each ep.  1 minute I guess in that 5 is for commercials.  That's 175 minutes of animation.  That's like 4 shorter OAV eps or 7-8 TV episodes.

Agree that the animation is bretty good, kinda mad that we aren't getting 5 mins though.

[antvasima]

Well, it was about the way that I expected, but with only 4 minutes, we probably need to watch at least 10-20 episodes to see the quality of the series.

[Surgeon Of Death]

Not even a minute in and already a panty shot. Still can't beat Bakemonogatari's record though. XD
Too bad I can't understand much. Guess I'll have to wait for a sub group to sub it.

Tenchi already got a kiss and a face full of groin... by stranj girls no less.... wonder how some Puritans are handling it?

[Tensami]

No 5 minute show is ever 5 minutes, just like how pretty much no 25 minute show is actually 25 minutes. This should be common knowledge by now.


No Sasami in the first episode...

So, Dog-girl is in love with "Momo-sama" and somehow confused Tenchi for her.
....  

Well okay then. Kinda expected none of the old girls would be in this ep, need to introduce the new players. Still a tad upsetting though.

[Gaston]

Wow the animation is better than the shitty artwork they presented.  The first episode was okay. My main problem is that the girls doesn't seems memorable like the old girls and Tenchi is too much weak.

[antvasima]

Agreed. So far it is just an assembly of bad anime cliches. Negishi is capable of much better than this.

[جبريل 無道]

Negishi is capable of much better than this.

If so, I've never seen it <.<

[antvasima]

I'm thinking of Burn-Up W.

[Harls]

That's not that great, either.

Yesterday, I had seen the second episode.  Tenchi has become a guinea pig for the Science Club. The scene reminds me when Washu was examining Tenchi in episode 7 of the OVA series. The members of the Science Club are smarter than I had expected.
