Last post by BobSchlotkin - July 15, 2025, 06:27:56 AMJust finished the first draft of GXP 18 and sent it off to EFF.
It needs some work, especially the cover and the pinups. I suck at graphics!

Last post by Eff Efferson - July 07, 2025, 11:28:23 PM13: later that night, elene seina's waitress from before talks to Jovia and tells her about her latest rejection, jovia tells her about seina and elene wonders if they can recruit him for their own purposes.
she analyses the hallway where seina came in and brings up the rumor that he is beloved by Mabia, a renzan goddess of bad luck
later after getting drunk jovia gets a video call from airen they update on life and jovia tells her she thinks she found a man to take care of her daughter
airen updates her telling her the pirate who came in earlier that day seemed to be doing reconnaissance as if they were planning to attack upcoming the harvest festival.
they finish talking
later on she wonders if that whole ordeal is caused by seinas luck
seina is greeted when he gets back home by nana. He goes and checks the souvenier he got theyre nearly authenticly recreated Japanese sweets seina realizes that she probably used the demon tree forest to harvest the ingredients so he decides to scans them to find later which allows him to find them in the forest. He then contacts zinv by teleporting outside the town barrier.
seina asks zinv if its alright and it responds, yes I have friends here. It has made friends with the dryads of the forest, seina promises to keep zinv updated and goes to bed.
14
seina wakes up and checks his status, as he sleeps nayuta uses his powers to gather the items he wanted by teleporting them into spirit thread storage. Seina gets up and begins his work day which he cheats at by using magic to deliver pit meat and find illegal traps. Later he goes to the hunter adventurers guild where a bunch of new child recruits are because the pit fields had expanded. Raska comes to greet him she appoligizes for her mother and assures seina she will help him if jovia gets out of hand seina assures her he has plenty of experience dealing with women like her. Seina is told that if jovia ever gets out of hand there are some magic words that work on jovia that make her calm down. Seian heads off to a conference hall a kid named hado tries to sucker punch seina but his punch is caught he is let go but tries to elbow seina in the side as he passes him to go back to his seat he is again blocked hado is pushed out of the way and stumbles and falls down a stairway he comes back up and stares seina down seina offers to fight him after training is over had says if you want to be an adventurer don't run away! And "jovia sneakily appears behind him and goes yeah that's right! Scaring everyone" she is the instructor that day. the situation evolves into a battle at the terrace arena . seina considers how to best kick hados ass and thinks about how kiriko lately imitates seto and simply puts out a warning shot so strong it scares others into submission. Seina wonders how he'd do such a thing before he comes to a conclusion and prepares for battle by "getting in the zone" and mentally aiming all the bad luck he subconsciously doges at hado. but he is stopped by a hug from behind. Theres a perspective change and were shown that when he did that everyone could feel the armosphere shift and something off emminating from seina and it was clear something horrible was being aimed at hado it feels to jovia like a high ranking beasts miasma so she teleported next to seina to stop him since everyone else was paralyzed by the feeling. Seina snaps out of it. "But jovia... the match is still on. " just look over at hado!" hado had fallen to his knees and pissed himself in fear. Hado is hauled off to get a medical exam. Jovia lightly flirts with seina as she hold him.

Last post by Eff Efferson - July 07, 2025, 06:59:56 PMChapter 1: The mood of people on the racepshi is in the dumps because of the big mech fight. To combat this the performers are performing the same old same old while developing a huge new act and every performer is practicing their new acts. Maya goes to see Maisan (Probably misreading her name but she is the 3rd of makihi's children) She specializes in seducing information out of Renzan intelligence operatives and Pirates, who we are informed ate now calling themselves the freedom alliance. She assures Maya that since she has heard nothing Seina is safe, but his whereabouts are still unknown. In exchange for monitoring the situation Maya agrees to introduce her to Kiriko, who she wants to work with, but is told not to recommend her to Kiriko, which implies Maisan receiving a lesser payout in that she stills has to prove herself to Kiriko and thus is owed another favor from Maya in the future. Maya rushes off to go practice her new act.
Chapter 2: Quiz Panta sneaks off to a private surveillance space in Recepshi where she meets "the Queen" of Renza, who is the wife of the head of the five families, her attendents are also there. It's revealed that Seto had orchestrated her rise to power and that it wasn't expected they'd meet up for another 3 hundred years. "I can't believe such a think happened over there." She says about seina's exploits in jurai, "neither could I" says Riberta (Liverta?) Clay revealing herself to quiz by turning around in the operators chair. Dr clays mom is then given her due exposition: She is over 20,000 years old just like clay and washu and she may be the oldest woman in the galactic federation thanks to clay.
she is a genious at talent scouting, she can is able to simply point people in the direction they need to go and stay hands off and has success and she had recently helped quiz develop one of their border planets. Clays father was a local lord of a planet his family had lost its prestige and the territory was in decline Riberta was a merchants daughter married off the clay's father as a concubine to pay off their financial debts, but his status territory soon grew thanks to Riberta, but she has a bad habit, she loses interest always right before the pay off of her actions, so as her husbands estate entered its peak she asked to be set free and divorced taking a large portion of assets and then ran off to visit clay at the academy and dragged him around the place to meet all his associates including washu and naja.
a person made the mistake of teasing him over this and so he started the first great war of embarrassing information exposure clay went into hiding and it got really bad eventually his mom had to use her special ability to locate him anywhere to find him and dragged him on an apology tour.
this lead to more humiliation but to prevent a second war mentioning clays mother became taboo. The person who started the fight with clay was fully doxed to an extreme level and booted back home.
Since then she left clay alone and took up her personal hobby of collecting art originally, she funded this herself, then when she went broke clay started donating over half his earnings to her to fund her hobby. The establishment of the MMD (whos name secretly means: Remember Everyone, don't waste money)
was also partially to curve her spending.
she bought many historical art fakes but due to her reputation and collection they became just as valuable as real historical items. Because of her age her collection is one of the oldest historical collections there is. so, her taste in art influenced future art and her talent scouting abilities nurtured many artists. She has a ship clay made for her on par with jurais ships and ryo ohki but its designed for self-defense rather than offense and is used as a museum and it's accessible even from remotely. Because of this the ship is simply known as the museum. This made it a huge target for pirates and thus she was the largest capturer of them before seina came around thanks to clays security systems (which we've already seen he licenses out like in gxp 2) in that regard she was a major contributor in galactic safety because of this the misdeeds of dr clay
once quiz had her team look into what would happen if riberta had stayed as owner on one of the companies she was developing at the time and found that it would have become a company larger then jurai with assets enough to support Jurai's entire military budget.
Kuisu tells her that clay is onboard and she confirms she already knows, but feels they are too old for the role of mother and child anymore, and she notes that because clay keeps his natural face and doenst get plastic surgery he looks like his father and she thinks he does that just to spite her because it shows he loved his father.
Riberta changes the survailance monitor over to one following clay and his companion. "don't you think it's time he settled down?" she then excuses her self away leaving only the queen with quiz who thanks her because without seto her husbands wouldn't have been able to become kings but she is worried that jurai will become dictatorial over them due to having higher ranking trees, quiz talks her through her worries.
Chapter 3
Takuma is dragged out of the situation he was in last book in drag by his nanny and teleported to meet kiriko she begins to talk to her about what she plans to do with the royal tree unit she claimed in battle when he is interrupted and kiriko briefly leaves. Souren comes in and is confused by seeing takuma in drag Takuma us informed he has actually been ousted from the company he works for and exiled to Racepshi. Kiriko comes back in to resume talks. He informs kiriko of why he has split from the santen corporation. Its over the brain tree usage. Kiriko informs him about the trees that they don't controle them but are friends and they don't want to make them fight. And jurai doesnt want to monopolize the trees because the trees don't wish to change the current situation of being with both renzans and juraians. Then takuma confirms they've removed the protections around the tree units and kiriko confirms they did so they know the horrible things they did to them. This scares him and he wants to know they plan to do in retaliation but kiriko assures him nothing will be done since they realized people in renza also have a bond with their trees and have at times recognised their sentience.
Takuma is teerified by being informed that the kamidake and yomotsu wolf aren't royally trees but independently developed technology. Kiriko then delivers some info to him on philosophers and revels that her plan is to use him to develop a rival company to santen to revitalize them with proper competition.
4: some cat fairies overhear some of the conversation and run to spread it out of context to everyone they can , (in this case it's that Takuma is interested in seina)it's exlained the catfairys have echolalia and love repeating fun sounding phrases they hear, but fuku beats the snot out of them before they can.
Chapter 5
Takuma reports back to sansui and finally changes out of drag. (Work in progress)

Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki / Re: GXP Novel 18 releasing 6/2...
Last post by Eff Efferson - July 06, 2025, 10:47:40 PMI'm going to post summaries here:
Summary chapter 10: the story finally shifts back to seina on barium(abarrium/ averiam/barium???) seina fills up some magic crystals for Nana and barigaru taked him out to dinner when nayuta alerts seina that a pirate ship has entered the atmosphere. Barigaru tells him there not coming over this way because the alarm, that jovial made to protect the city isn't going off and they're likely going to the magic less continent. Seina worries about a fight between him and pirates getting out of hand and destroying the planet.
Summary chapter 11: barigaru and seina arrive at a Well hidden restaurant resembling a Japanese one with kimono wearing waitresses something touches his face as he teleports into a further in part of the establishment he notices it's a magic spider web like structure that keeps people from noticably passing each other they're taken to a private Japanese style room whereas woman is waiting seina laughs because she has solly doodles all oer her face but seina realizes a spell was cast on his vision and dissipates revealing the scary but petty jovial real face brigaru tells seina this is why he brought him here.
Chapter 12: barigaru leaves them alone jovial tells seina if he ever wants out of his debt just let her know.japanese food arrives seina considers that the places logo seems like a recognisable Japanese kanji and that either someone here must have had astral memories of Japan or been from the jurains that know of it. The foods taste reminds seina of home and Jovia speaks to seina in Japanese alarming him seina asks how so how did you get here? Were you summoned? Or do you just have astral feedback? " No... I was reincarnated into another world by those bastards." They both clear things up for each other and she explains she was participating at the summer comiket alone because her usual friend ifrom a famous land owning family wouldn't come with for the sake of his public image. And she bought too much smut doujinshi by not paying for the delivery fees so she had to carry them all while painstakingly reading them on the train when she got off to switch trains at her home town she was so hot tired and hungry she passed out and her doinins scattered and then she wakes up in a white space with an impossible haired (changes color) medical worker she asks if she's dead an is assignd a number the nurse sits by a figure called reverend who explains is an individual who hasn't lot their individuality even without their body and has godlike powers and tells them when they died they were liberated from their name so they can't tell them, they ask hem ro help them because distortions are happening in the universe and if unresolved it will hurt reality. The entity asks if they could like to help by being reincarnated somewhere else. Jovial mentions she wants cheat powers they explain why that won't happen, shesinistant they agree to give a small cheat I think... Then there's 20 pages of Jovia describing the gross process and feeling of her dying and the spirit trying to give a cheat power only for her to be like no actually if it feels this bad. The spirit then explains forcibly downloading an entire skill set into someone's spirit would basicly totally mess up a person like that and gives her some smut to read as a condolence and she decides to just reincarnate with adult memories which she now realizes are a major cheat themselves. She explains that why like seina she was able to also communicate with the magic essence system when she got the cold and so she's used it to be op in magic and that she knew seina was here and weird from the moment he got here butnever imagine he'd be from Japan. And she reveals her intention to use seina to get back home. Seina says it's impossible it's not allowed. Jovial tightens her death grip and insists that is seina is and they are from the same place so close together its meant to be and if they are husband and wife they will have to! Seina resists and reveals his romantic situation to her to throw her off but it fails! She accepts and breaks him down! But he she puts in on the back burner to bring up seinas current predicament. Seina brings up her daughter and says well if you come with me what will he do. She reveals she can use spirit thread teleportation and her daughter can live on her own and. Just visit whenever by teleporting nayuta finally interjects and says seina you should just marry her it's safer to make an ally of her then let someone else get her and she will likely be approved and besides airi an washu would happily use her as lab rat. Seina gives in and agrees to marry her. Hes let out with a wedding present souvenir by the waitresses. Barigaru leaves to go home with him and apologizes but explains she has connection that will benefit him. Seina is used to it. Its revealed that raska from seinas pit hunting days is jovias daughter and can help get her off his back if he needs it. Seina thinks it comparable to how airi has a serious kid with minaho to offset her personality. Seina decides to contact zinv when he gets back

Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki / GXP Re-translation Project
Last post by BobSchlotkin - June 28, 2025, 03:19:07 AMThe comments EFF made in some of the GXP novels got me thinking that I would really like to translate all of them to see just what was missing.
I actually started GXP 1 last summer, but real life thangs kept intruding and I just couldn't get a good start.
About a month before the GXP 18 announcement hit the street, I discovered that both DeepL and Google Translate have gotten a lot better. Still can't figure out pronouns and some Japanese slang, but not bad.
I uploaded the complete translation of GXP 1 to Eff yesterday. I'm about 40% into GXP 2, which is now on hold for 18.
If you decide to read GXP 1, shoot me any problems you find. I've been through it about 4 times and am pretty happy with it, but there's always something wrong.
Anywho, enjoy,

Last post by Eff Efferson - June 25, 2025, 07:00:21 PM400 pages... Remember the commentaries in the first couple books where hes like well I had to split it into more novels because it would be too thick? He's just doesn't even give a hoot anymore lol. The next on will come out in 2035 and be as thick as an Anne rice novel
