[CD] Meet the Tenchi-Muyo!
Pioneer PICA-1084
2500 Yen
38 mins long.

This CD is a collection of Tenchi songs, they are all English
versions.

The front has a b/w picture of Ryoko, Aeka, Sasami & Tenchi.  One the
back is a picture of the ladies (Ryoko, Aeka, Mihoshi, Sasami, Kiyone
& Washu) walking across a zebra crossing in England. Why England? Coz
I recognise the number plates on the car. If you own a white
Volkswagen Beetle with a reg number LWA221F then you are now famous. 
The picture looks kinda familiar. Not sure, but I think it is a copy
of some picture of the Beetles. I'm too young to remember.

Most of the box the CD comes in is made of card. Only the part that
holds the CD is made of plastic, but it is really thin.

Inside are four pictures, one each of Ryoko, Aeka, Mihoshi & Kiyone. 
Also is a single piece of paper which unfolds into a lyric sheet. No
more do you have to memorize Japanese words you don't understand. Now
you can sing along perfectly in English.

1. I'm A Pioneer (2nd OAV opening theme)
2. Dream Away
3. Washu's Lullaby
4. Sleeping Beauty On the Balcony
5. Pretty Sammy, The Magic Girl
6. Your Hiroshi
7. Money No More
8. The Loney Moon (2nd OAV ending theme)
9. Talent For Love (1st OAV ending theme)

If you have the TM CD Box set, then Japanese versions of 1, 3, 4, 5
(part) & 8 are in there somewhere. Japanese version of 2 is on the CD
single which has Pretty Sammy on the front.

Overall, if you hate the dub then you might not like this.  All the
songs are very good. The lyrics are well written. Nothing is wrong in
that sense. In fact, I have no complaints except about the flimsy box. 
If you like Tenchi songs and don't mind English versions, then this is
a must.

Also recently out:

[CD] PRETTY SAMY Magical Night CD Special
Pioneer PICA-1083 (2 CDs)
4800 yen

(Don't ask me why Pioneer can't be consistant. 'Samy' on this CD,
'Sammy' on the last!)

Drama CD. First track is a song. Total length of both CDs is over 140
minutes! If only I can understand it...

Front has a pic of Pretty Samy, back has a pic of the back of her! 
Inside is a sticker, same as cover. The CD case is twice as long to
hold the extra CD. The booklet is fixed into the case. There are
various pitures including one of grown up Sasami (16 years old). Yes,
she does look like Tsunami.

There is also a pic of a CD single I don't recognise. Just has a drawn
pic of a lady holding a microphone on the cover.  Can't read the title
but the hiragana part says chihiro. It is also written elsewhere in
English on the same page. Code number is PICX-1126. Any ideas what it
is?

[LD] Tenchi Myuo TV 7
PILA 1327
5974 Yen
2 sides CAV, 60 mins.

Like the first TV LD, this comes in a box for storing LDs.  The
picture on the front is mainly blue/pink. Night time, full moon,
cherry blossom falling from the trees. Ryoko is sitting against a tree
by a lake, holding a small cup and a bottle of what I guess could only
be sake. Ryoohki is sitting on her feet, holding a large carrot. Real
nice pic.

No spoilers, coz I don't understand what's going on. I bought TV 1 & 7
just to get the boxes! At the end of this LD is what appears to be an
interview with the voice cast. They also showed baby pictures of some
of them.
