A suprisingly mature and meditative conclusion to a series who's selling point is asking the audience which alien broad they'd like to date. In fact it could be said the film rather uniquely explores the tropes of the harem genre from which it was birthed. Its heavy focus on the female characters is unique even for the relatively more female focused Tenchi Muyou franchise allows for an exploration of the emotional labour that would of course be associated with the harem or love triangle formula for all particpants. Even in the movie itself there's this strange tonal disonance between the ruminative almost mumble-core discussions on ... loss and nostalgia and the more high-concept sci fi set pieces though that gives it a unique charm.
