New 'Tenchi Muyou! GXP' Anime 'Paradise Shidou-hen' Announced
Video game publishing company EXNOA announced a new anime for Tenchi Muyou! GXP subtitled Paradise Shidou-hen on Friday. The company also opened an official page, revealing a teaser visual (pictured above). The new anime is commemorating the 30th anniversary of the franchise.
Masaki Kajishima, the original creator, is supervising and drawing the original character designs. Screenwriter Hideki Shirane (Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka) is once again credited for the script and series composition. EXNOA is in charge of production, with its animation label KINEMATICS being credited as the studio.
Tenchi Muyou! GXP: Paradise Shidou-hen will feature a new story for the main character Seina Yamada, serving as a prologue to the Paradise War arc in the story. The story is also connected to the fourth and fifth season of Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki released in 2016–2017 and 2020–2021.
Kajishima launched the Tenchi Muyou! franchise in 1992, which has inspired four spin-off television anime and multiple movie, manga, and light novel adaptations. The original video animation series spanned for 20 episodes over three seasons.
The Tenchi Muyou! GXP spin-off, produced by animation studio AIC, aired in 26 episodes from Spring to Fall in 2002. Funimation licensed the anime in North America and released it on eighth DVD volumes in 2004, with boxsets in 2006, 2007, 2010, and 2012.

I would argue it was never good to begin with...
At this point I guess both are shows of their own era. For each their own...

Man, I just wish they let this franchise rest in peace. Nothing positive came out after the late 90s.

Please let this franchise rest. At least Dragon Ball and Naruto still make sense.
so, if something doesn't "make sense" to YOU, those of us who DO get it can't get new content? that sounds like a YOU problem not an EVERYBODY ELSE problem. why don't YOU improve yourself and ask questions about what YOU don't understand. or heck, do some solo research and LEARN about what puzzles YOU.
you think Dragon Ball makes sense? aye carumba! you must not have seen the very earliest parts of the franchise. or you have skipped the now infamous 're-used and re-edited' section of DB where the studio didn't create new content at all. they just took earlier episodes' frames and hashed them together. with almost 10 minutes of total 'Previously on Dragonball' and 'Next Time on Dragonball' recap and preview in each episode. or hey, 20 minutes of whichever character had an impacted bowel that week and they animated them SCREAMING the whole time trying to take a dump.
i'm not trashing DB, i'm busting its' chops for having a spotty past. i watched DB in the US from episode 1 all the way through the beginning of the Majiin Bhuu arc and finally dropped it. i'm not saying DB should be stopped. i DO wish it would come to SOME form of conclusion. but /shrug/ the fans spend the cash, and the Big Yen Guys in Japan still keep making money on DB. so i just nod, smile vaguely, and welcome the super hero whatever god thingy content DB is doing these days. because i know out there some fan has a great big giant woody for DB and is a happy human being when new content comes out.
as to Naruto/Boruto /shrug/ again. once more i just nod, smile vaguely, and suchforth for the same reasons i mentioned in the last three sentences of my previous paragraph. i watched Naruto from ep1 till one of the advancement exams Naruto et. al. went through and dropped that one too. that franchise will keep going until it stops.
but hey, i'm just me, one guy. :) in this single topic there are other folks who are happy, interested, curious, or puzzled about new Tenchi-verse content.

does anybody know yet if this is the 'lead in' to the story arc that has yet to be animated... what happened to Seina and his 'team' after episode 26 of GXP? there is a REALLY big gap in the Tenchi-verse anime between GXP 26 and Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki 4th Season. Seina, his team, and other Tenchi-verse characters MENTION Seina's previous adventures in TMR S4 and forwards but we haven't SEEN it animated.
ahhh crap, so they're skipping the isekai section of GXP again!? maaaan that sucks! i wanted to see if the super sci-fi space aliens would be entirely idiotic and the Earth folks look around in wonder going... 'you're kidding me. seriously? all those authors were RIGHT? this stuff exists!?'
well, it is new Tenchi-verse content so it ought to be good.

Is it so important? This franchise has long since become something of a harem version of Lupin.
no I wasn't saying that ...in this image you can clearly see which is canon ... Canon means which are directly written by the author himself....[The Middle Column]
after some research I guess this upcoming season also be a conon....
