The original "Tenchi Muyo!" OVA series and extended television shows are known as something of a cult classic nowadays. Pioneering the infamous harem genre, they did a surprisingly good job at balancing science fiction elements and off-the-wall romantic comedy.
Therein lies what made the original series so memorable: They were actually FUNNY!
"Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar" suffers from a painful identity crises. It wants to be a VERY heavy political drama while primarily focusing on uncomfortably awkward comedy that never measures up to the sharp wit of the originals, usually opting for fetish fuel (massages that give all women constant orgasms for several days straight!) or idiotic dialogue ("I heard that boys from other worlds like being called 'baby boy' by their female teacher." . . .…

Should I Watch? Depends on your taste but I would say No.
First things first, the story was not great and in my opinion, it's dull. I feel like the story needs something the Mc could lose or have some real backstory at the start so I can feel for the character Kenshi. Everyone else feels like empty shells following Kenshi and THE AMOUNT OF TIMES HES GIVEN PLOT ARMOUR! I wanted it to be good but with Kenshi doing everything and everyone having no backstory it makes them seem empty.
The villains are bad for no real reason and have no proper reasoning for it. If they had good villains then MAYBE Kenshi could have a reason to fight them off or something.
If you don't mind a story you can see from a mile away, boring characters with no backstory then this is good but for me it needs more. Its…

Before start watch this anime, I liked two things they are a genres and R+ Mild Nudity.
Watching the first episode, I was thinking that the anime will be just in my tase
but.... after second and third episodes however, I was going to drop this show, but later however, I was carried away not only by the main story but also by the main character and his story=I fell in love with.
If we talk about art then I put 7/10 they are all beautiful except the animation slightly lame (sometimes she's a bad) except liked very mutch how moving mechas and how beautiful they were is drawn. Sound and music also satisfied but could be much better 7/10. Character- MC-Kenshi- It would be a perfect hero if he were a romantic but..... QQ so many girls fell in love with him and if I were in his place then all gi…

When you were younger, maybe you heard drinking milk will make your bones stronger and make you taller. You drank so much when you were young so you could grow. Now in present day all of a sudden, you've become lactose intolerant due to the anatomy of your body. Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari is the result of this. No matter how tasty that gallon of ice cream was, or that quart of milk, your system will always suffer from intolerancy. This is essentially what Monogatari was all about, the start of a grand journey AKA the ice cream, then everything else which is the stomach problems, flatulence barrage and the diarrhea. But for a harem series, it wasn't the worst, I mean Kenshi was a beast, to a fault. While the first episode set a great foundation, everything after was the result of regurgi…

I have watched the entire season of this 4 times and have not found myself bored once.
The overall story line of this anime starts a bit stereotypical, but the development is excellent.
Not to mention that the main character is an overall bad ass with a kind, although a little too innocent, heart.
Although sometimes a little cliche, this anime is found very enjoyable and one is left with other regret there is not more of it!
As a personal bit: WAHANLY IS THE BEST! :P

Firstly, watch the show.
Second, I don't write reviews. I looked at the review screen once, thought better, then went to watch anime like the rest of us. I've seen hundreds of shows without exaggerating. I can confidently say that this show is one of the greatest and most under appreciated shows I've ever had the privilege to watch.
Story: 8
The story is typical. Boy meets girl. Girl tests boy. Boy is a god among men. Girl makes boy her pawn. Boy gets harem. Madness. Oh yeah and the girl is a princess or something and he has to fight in some war or another with a mech suit that he pilots better than people who've trained for decades, but that's irrelevant. It's typical, but the anime finds ways to give it fresh spins and keep the show ALIVE and ENTERTAINING.

You know that feeling when you're just randomly looking for anime to watch and suddenly find something you end up marathoning back-to-back for that entire day. Yeah, that happened with this anime.
The short version:
(+)The MC can handle himself.
(+)The characters are fun to watch.
(+)When it gets going it's worth the wait.
(+)A nice mix of Fantasy and Mecha
(-)The show REALLY takes it time to get going. THE GOOD:
Firstly the story, it isn't the sort were they spend the first few episodes to explain how everything works, it more or less drops you in the middle of the world and leaves it to you to figure out how it works, which is a nice change of pace from the first episode getting you ready for the show to get straight into it, then spends the next 3 episodes explaining how the entire wor…

Oh joy, another harem series. Read that as sarcastically as possible. I still have no idea why people ask me to review these things. But this one is part of the Tenchi Muyo franchise, which I don't like, from the admittedly little of it I've seen, but at least it's not Sekirei. Although it could very well turn out to be just as bad. I suppose I should say something along the lines of "it could also surprise me and be good" but I very much doubt it. Yes, it could be, but the probability is so heavily against it that it hardly bears mentioning. This is Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari, written by Shirane Hideki and produced by AIC spirits and BeSTACK.
Our story begins with the inauguration ceremony of princess Lashara which is shortly followed up by an assassination attempt while on her way to…

I'm going to start by saying that " I am in no way, shape or form a fan of robot Anime ". Yet, I seem to have enjoyed this show considerably, which is a good thing on my part. I would hate it if I wasted my time on it. I'll use the same review criteria as I have been in the other reviews. If my grammar is off, I apologize, I haven't slept in awhile. Currently trying to tire myself out ^_^
The story of the show was slightly above average. Not saying it was great or original, but the show did have a tolerable story. What I enjoyed most was the world it took place in. You see, all the machines get their power from the world itself. They then use this to power to pilot their, what look and move like, Bio engineered mechs. Steam powered versions are still in the development stage, and only a…

As someone who didn't even know that the Tenchi Muyo franchise existed prior to watching this anime, I can tell you that it is without a doubt one of the best series I have ever watched without the stigma of being "yet another Tenchi Muyo series"
Story:
It revolves around Masaki Kenshi, who was sent from his homeworld Earth to faraway world Geminar. In Geminar there exists mechanoid weapons known as Seikijin which are used instead of your typical armies, and their pilots known as Seikishi. The story is brilliant as it's not too fast paced that you get confused as to what is going on, but also not too slow so you actually get involved in the story rather than sit around hoping it moves forward. It's not just your "typical" mecha in the same vein that it's not your "typical" harem.

To be honest i can't remember the real reason why i downloaded Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari since i really hate the "Mecha" genre of anime. What i do remember is the reason i watched this anime is because of the awesomeness of the OP song, i cant quite put my finger on it but let's settle for the reason: I really felt the soothing tune that made me feel safe.
There i go, watched the first episode. At the ending it made me really curious on about what's going to happen next, which is a sign that i enjoy watching the anime. One more thing is, i failed to notice that the first episode had a 51 minute runtime, WHICH MADE ME REALIZE THAT I WAS REALLY ENJOYING THIS ANIME.
Story/Plot: 10/10.
The plot has so many twists and turns, which i admire very much because there isn't much anime that ca…

A harem done right?
[contains suggestive language, and an extreme loss of interest in constructive reasoning halfway through.]
It's difficult to end a harem. Regardless of how happy the ending turns out to be, only one girl 'wins' the guy over -- the others are presumably meant to cope with the loss. Some series like Mashiro-iro show the externalities of a singular bliss, while series like Zero no Tsukaima, like most others, avoid the topic all together. Isekai handles a harem correctly [as it is the highest rated harem on MAL], but it does so in an unorthodox manner.
It does this by creating a romance so weak, that the very element of it could be miscategorized as simple interaction, devoid of especial sentiments. Every heroine in Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari inevitably and invariabl…

A boy gets sent to a new world(he's related to Tenchi) he has the skills of a master fighter/swordsmen/robotpilot. His role that you find out in the end was to deal with a thing called Gaia(ADemonShield or entity).But at the start he doesnt know why is there or who sent him. He spends his days helping others out and running from girls while trying to fight the people who want to start a war. If you like Harem, Robot fights, and a good guy who is badass this anime is for you.

Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari, the perfect harem.
Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari was a fantastic show, well-animated, great music, and very likeable characters.
Story - 9
The story is basically split into two arcs, the first arc is set in an elite,practically all-girls school where we meet all the main female characters and the few male protagonists. The second arc is more serious in tone and is essentially a "save the world" arc with Kenshi and those he has made his friends with attempting to stop a catastrophe.

Awesome! What more can i say. Sound - 10
Every piece that is played from the introduction, background, and ending was really nice. (the background music is played only a few times, but it sure is catchy. i found myself humming it a lot when i first finished the series…

Here is my first review that i am going to do, i have read a lot of other reviews and everyone seems to write so much! Ill try to keep this simple short and straight to the point!
This series has got to be one of the most funniest that i have watched so far, i have not laughed as hard while watching this then other anime's i have seen. The mix between Action, Comedy, and School life have me at a hope that they will be making a second season!
If you're someone that is looking for action as well as comedy then this series will be a treat for you! If not, you should still give it a chance. You'll be hooked within minutes of the first episode!
I hope you enjoyed reading my first review, and helped you decide on watching a great anime!

I had no idea that I had stumbled upon one of the greatest animes I have ever seen. The 45 minute episodes were just great as hell. I had to wait for a month for each episode to come. By the end of the month I would mad dash to my room and watch the episode from intro to the end of the credits. My mom thought I was on crack or something and I told her it was just an anime. I did not know this was a spinoff of Tenchi-Muyo, another great series I like, and did not know until a later episode when Washu's silhouette was in the background. Completely hilarious and the plot was very great but not that original. Every episode that was about the school made me laugh so hard I swear I would've died. I am a fan of girls chasing a boy for some reason or other so I REALLY enjoyed the episodes where he…

Seeing as how this was actually a forum post of mine when I went on a rant after watching this dreadful series, I wanted to bring this out to the front page and see what you're truly getting yourself into.
This does contain some spoilers, but it will not impact the series in any way. Anyone who has not watched this should not have a problem with the spoilers as it does not reveal any plot twists, etc(except episode 1, but what the hell, it's episode one haha).
The graphics and battles were top notch. However, the entire series was literally a land fill of fillers all the way until at least episode 9. Episodes 2-9 were just Kenshi meeting girls and getting into harem themed situations. Granted the situations were funny at times, it got repetitive, dragged out and ultimately ruined the en…

*SPOILERS*
Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari was my first time watching an OVA series that comes out every month rather than every week. As such, I was not prepared for the gnawing impatience I felt at the end of every episode.
At first I wasn't really absorbed with this series and just started watching it while waiting for one of my downloads to finish. However as the1st episode progressed, I slowly found myself getting drawn into the story. The basic storyline wasn't anything new. It had the same premises as some other fantasy series with the main character getting thrown into an unknown world in order to fight the villain. However the other elements of the series helped bring the story to life.
I thought that the art was very well done and really brought out the attractive aspects of nat…

So after watching this anime two times now, ive decided to write a review. This will be my first so please dnt throw me to the wolves yet. So i shall begin.
Story- 9/10
Another anime where a boy is thrown into an unknown world where he becomes of great use. Machines called Seikishi dominate the military aspect of a country and can only be controlled by certain people. And of course, Misaki Kenshi happens to be one of these people. Good progression throughout the series and most things are explained thoroughly. The ending makes a second season desirable. For not being an original plot, this series keeps you interested with its humor and half-bit romance.
Art- 8/10
Sorry but I have no taste in art so this is really just the number that popped up when i thought about it.
Sound- 10/10

As a fan of Tenchi Muyo and its franchise, Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari, would have to be if not the best spin-off that's come out to date. Bear in mind, my review will be very biased due to nostalgia playing a big part(having grown up to Tenchi anime instead of Pokemon or Dragonball)
Whilst there are subtle references to the MC being part of the Tenchi Muyo universe(TenchiVerse), I doubt it would be enough for anyone to think that they would need to watch the past franchise before starting this series.
Story: 6
The story itself is pretty generic and is about a boy who is summoned to a world not of his own with only his wits(and an inexhaustible amount of physical power) to help him find his way back home to Japan. One of the reasons why I've taken a liking to this series is due to havi…
