The first series, released from 1992-93, was mostly introductions to the major characters, who join Tenchi's [[Harem]] via a [[Debut Queue]]. Episodes 5 and 6 bring in the first major villain, the space criminal Kagato. The second series, from 1994-1995, includes some major revelations about the characters' pasts and features a new villain, Dr. Clay. The third series, from 2004-2005, focuses more on the characters' families and resolves some lingering issues from the first two parts.
