Tenchi Muyo! GXP: Difference between revisions

Line 23:

* '''Tarant Shank''' - [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]] and a [[Complete Monster]] of a [[Space Pirate]]. Makes a classic entrance as a [[Knight of Cerebus]], but Seina's luck tends to undercut him anticlimactically. Implied to have [[In Love with Your Carnage|a crush on Kiriko.]]

''[[Tenchi Muyo GXP]]'' builds on both the formula and setting of the original ''Tenchi'' series. [[FUNimation]] has released this series in English.

Line 56:

*** It's actually a really bizarre continuity nod. The Tenchi Muyo OVA 3 was planned well ahead of GXP, and those changes where included to hype up the third OVA.

** There is also one to ''[[Parallel Trouble Adventure Dual]]''. At the Last episode of that series Zinv (the primary mecha said to have access to the [[Light Hawk]] Wings was sent to "another world" and in Ep 24 Seina gets his [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] by being "sacrificed" to a mech that bears a very striking resemblance to Dual's Zinv (I don't think this was merely a coincidence).

******* This troper just wants to point out that he watch Parallel Adventure Dual, and while the screen said Zinv the main Charcters actually refered to it as Genebu in their verbal conversations

* [[Cool Ship]] (The ''Mikagami, Kamidake'' and ''Kamidake II''. The ''Unko'' is an inversion of this trope, being decidedly uncool in every single possible way.)

* [[Cosmic Plaything]] (Seina)

* [[Cheshire Cat Grin]] (Seto, whenever she's feeling mischievous. Almost borderlines [[Slasher Smile]] on a few occasions.)

* [[Cursed with Awesome]] (How Seina learns to view his luck.)

* [[Dark-Skinned Blond~~|Dark Skinned Blonde~~]] (The Kuramitsu family, who practically run the GP. Gyokuren, a lesser seen member of Seina's harem, is a Dark Skinned [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]].)

* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]] (The Kuramitsu family, who practically run the GP. Gyokuren, a lesser seen member of Seina's harem, is a Dark Skinned [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]].)

* [[The Determinator]] (Seina suffers through days of a Physical Training regimen [[Training From Hell|designed for cadets with]] [[Super Strength]] just to prove to himself that he can make it.)

* [[Dirty Coward]] (Tarant.)

Line 66:

* [[Does Not Know His Own Strength]] (Seina suffers this after being enhanced -- the excuse for the first round of [[Innocent Cohabitation]] is him being trained to control it.)

* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]] (Toyed with. An early [[Running Gag]] sees NB having large, pointy parts of spaceships jammed into his rear end (don't ask). He reacts just as you would expect. Also played with later on... When Seiryo talks about how his day with Seina has come, a droopy shock baton [[Foe Yay|stands up firmly]].

* [[Dojikko]] (Seina is frequently a [[Gender Flip~~|Gender Flipped~~]] example of this trope.)

* [[Dojikko]] (Seina is frequently a [[Gender Flip]]ped example of this trope.)

* [[Energy Weapons]] (Both [[Frickin' Laser Beams]] and [[Laser Blade~~|Laser Blades~~]] are used.)

* [[Energy Weapons]] (Both [[Frickin' Laser Beams]] and [[Laser Blade]]s are used.)

* [[Ensign Newbie]] (Seina is given command over a decoy ship despite still technically being a cadet.)

** Justified in that the higher ups were trying to weaponize his bad luck. Putting him onto a battleship might seem like a good idea until you realize his bad luck bleeds onto ''everybody'' (barring his harem), not just pirates.

Line 105:

* [[Holographic Terminal]] (All over the place)

* [[Hot for Student]] (Most of Seina's harem is visibly older than him, and serve as his instructors at the GP Academy for most of the series.)

* [[Hot Shounen Mom]] (Mitoto is Mihoshi's [[Hot Shounen Mom]], while Airi and Seto are Tenchi's Hot Shounen Grandma ('''~~<nowiki>~~* ~~</nowiki>~~[[Berserk Button|a-HEM]]~~<nowiki>~~* ~~</nowiki>~~''') and ''Great-Great-Grandma'', respectively.)

* [[Hot Shounen Mom]] (Mitoto is Mihoshi's [[Hot Shounen Mom]], while Airi and Seto are Tenchi's Hot Shounen Grandma ('''*[[Berserk Button|a-HEM]]*''') and ''Great-Great-Grandma'', respectively.)

* [[Hot Springs Episode]] (All over the place.)

* [[Humongous Mecha]] (Seina gets to pilot one in episode 24. It [[Shout-Out|looks a lot]] like an [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|EVA Unit]], and even growls like one in combat.)
