Tenchi Muyo! (also known as Tenchi Universe) is an animation series animated by AIC and produced by Pioneer LDC. It was directed by Hiroshi Negishi in 1995, and it is loosely based on the first six episodes of the Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki OVA series. This series introduces three new characters: Mihoshi's partner Kiyone Makibi (who debuted in the "Mihoshi Special"), the bounty hunter and Ryoko's rival, Nagi, and her cabbit companion, Ken-Ohki. The series also gave some characters different personalities; Washu is now portrayed as a mildly-insane egomaniac with two pop-up dolls that proclaim her greatness, and Mihoshi was portrayed as a comic relief character whose constant bumbling, blunders and crying fits would often get the gang into trouble.
