Agreed. The GXP anime needs a reboot. The old series is almost like night and day from the novels. Besides, it's obviously not canon anymore. I think the Tenchi fandom in Japan seems 'healthy' enough to warrant giving Seina and Co. the FMA: Brotherhood treatment
The cast has grown so large that 26 episodes minimum to give everyone proper screen time.
The problem with that is it's not going to nessesarily fit into 26 episodes. Atleast 4 episodes of content were cut. Some things clearly were cut out because there not tv friendly.
Your not going to see corpse fucking couch fucker ed from mask wearing tarrant on tv. Or seina getting a nude private dance by maya. Or ryoko exploding into a bloody corpse mess. Or washu molesting seinas waifus. Probably won't be allowed to discuss maya fucking a royal and squirting the jizz into a cup to illegally ensemnate Alan's wife either.
Also don't forget there's alot of clucking hen scenes I cut out from my translation that do nothing to further the plot. If you want to know what a clucking hen scene is it's the entirety of ova 4 episode 4 where the girls all sit around in bulk and specualte on the plot and swoon over seina instead of the plot happening.
I hope one day to have enough tenchi footage and free time that I can finish my fan visual novelization lol. It really makes me want to see a reboot.
The novels capture so much that would be lost in translation to show but I still wanna see it lol.
