Tenchi Muyo! Ryo Ohki : Final Confrontations v.3 w/Tin
Final Confrontation(2003) more or less picks up where the previousRyo-OhkiOVAs left off, and appends happy endings to the previous storylines. Mihoshi's nutty brother Misao gets to marry Mashisu, through the intervention of Lady Seto, "the Devil Princess of Jurai." Yosho and Nobuyuki tell Tenchi strange stories about his mother (which don't jibe with previous depictions of her), then Nobuyuki remarries--with everyone's blessings. In short, the plot stumbles and collapses like Ryoko after a three-day binge. Nothing that occurs precludes yet another series for the ever-popular Tenchi Masaki, but fans would probably prefer one with a more coherent storyline. The extras includeTenchi Muyo! Entertainment/ Secret Pot, in which two squeaky-voiced actresses discuss aspects of theTenchicontinuity without shedding much light on them, andLocal Specialty, aTenchiradio show illustrated with still images. (Rated TV PG, suitable for ages 12 and older: brief nudity, cartoon violence, minor risqué humor, alcohol use)--Charles  Solomon
