Title: A Photon question
Post by: antvasima on September 09, 2020, 06:18:28 AM
Hello.

I am trying to keep the Tenchi Muyo wiki organised, and wonder if Photon is a part of the main Tenchi Muyo continuity, or something entirely separate.

https://tenchi.fandom.com/wiki/Photon:_The_Idiot_Adventures

Thanks in advance for any help.

maybe billions. Because of the names, when I first saw Geminar it occurred to me that they could be the same universe but a problem showed up. Photon shows "Sandy Planet" becoming "Green Planet" and you see that it is Earth (and someone- in the subs- refers to it as "Earth") but in Geminar they momentarily show a global map of the planet and it's NOT Earth. Now, that could be a problem of the director not realizing the map should be of Earth, or it's explained by continental drift. In a billion years, the Earth will  look very different.

"Aho Energey" being the most connective term, but another telling segment is when they talk about how the giant vines at the resort once covered much the planet- and that these same vines were the type Photon was jumping around on at their hot-springs town.

I guess all of his series are supposed to share the same universe- even Masquerade... although I have no idea HOW on that one. How exactly porno kermit Tenchi's magic schlong connects is unknown to me.

Masquerade is connected to Tenchi through a different hentai. Anata dake Konbanwa takes place after Masquerade at the same school. The Tenchi-ken appears near the end of AdK, but that is the only way they are connected.

Thank you for the help. I will add Photon to the navigation bar in the Tenchi Muyo wiki then.

A source isn't noted (The novel?) but Eff/Fap/Who? wrote an interesting blog.

(should be "Incident" BTW)
Most of it is just a summary of the plot of Photon but the beginning and end go into more detail and proposes that the activation of the Aho Furnace created the early Earth from Dual (Which I propose, in the main universe, may also be the planet where Seina finds Zinv).

He's outright stated the connection in the doujin the one with the waifu gotcha game pictures.

As for masquerade. It was supposed to be connected... It was actually supposed to have a full game called wakamono choi (watchout boy/ careful fragile) that we see in the early doujins. The game never got released and had tons of script. They made masquerade anime to promote it and tie into it as a bit of a side story.  So while it was intended to it never did tie in exactly unlike aggaruter.


My harvest has lewds from aggaruter for some reason and takes place at the academy last I checked. Pyuumi shows up in an ad in gxp when seinas going shopping for his first sallery gifts. Also miki has a nude apearence in the game.

Probably because it sucks. Also the sales weren't good. That's why aggaruter got killed. Also the game was cancelled.

Okay, found it. hidden at the end of the Keyne Aqua profile. I zoned out on that one because I read it late at night and most of the text above was plot recap.
Nice to see a reference and it's good enough for the wiki, but I'd still love more detail.

The sequel to Masquerade...Zoku something...sucked too. At least Masquerade 1 had a plot that could be followed and decent art. Zoku had terrible art and the villian beth was annoying as hell.

Thank you for helping out so much with the wiki.

And I think I've fixed all the pages with small text, at least I opened all pages listed in the "characters" category and gotten rid of or fixed all of the "<small>" tags that didn't have corresponding "</small> I think the problems all came from the character text boxes with bad tags, so other pages shouldn't have the problem.
