The last of all the Tenchi Muyo movies, and in my opinion, the best!

Tenchi Forever's story is its main draw. Having little, to no action, the story still keeps it as entertaining as it can get. Tenchi Forever goes as follows : Tenchi walks into the mountains, and disappears. Ryoko, and Ayeka search all over Japan, and Ryoko finally locates a Tenchi that is now older than before, and is now with a mysterious girl named haruna. I don't really know what else to say without ruining the story. So if you need more info, go to the Tenchi Muyo Episode List.

Everything looks different from the normal Tenchi animation. But the plus is that it is a lot more detailed, and Tenchi just looks cooler when he's older! The setting animation is good, and the character animation can't get much better. I would have to say that it is the perfect motion picture animation.

The amazing Tenchi Universe cast reterns, with the welcome addition of Haruna. If you havn't heard me say it before, it is the great characters that make Tenchi Muyo what it is, that holds true in this movie with Tenchi, and Haruna, but all of the other characters are not themselves. Although the american voice actors from the TV series do yet another great job on the portraying of the Tenchi characters, as well as Haruna.

A great variety of well orcistrated music. Some of the music has a happy sound that just adds a sad and dreary atmosphere to the allready semi-sad story. I don't think I have ever heard a soundtrack that has gone so well with the story untill this movie. And besides all of that, Dolby Surround Sound is present, and thats always a plus.

The first time you ever see this movie you will swing off every word in the entire dialogue, and you will not blink during the whole thing. After you have seen this movie more that once, it starts to lose its flair. In my case, memorizing almost every word in the dialogue is definatly not the way to make the movie more enjoyable.

An amazing sad love story that you will think about more than once.

The best character animation possible for the Tenchi Muyo series.
