Tenchi Muyo! Tōkō Muyō No Need for School! – JP PlayStation Game & Box & Manual – VG+

Tenchi Muyou! Toukou Muyou is a comedy-focused adventure/visual-novel game set in the Tenchi Universe continuity, placing the player in the role of Tenchi Masaki as he attempts to survive daily school life—while dealing with the chaotic interference of the entire Tenchi household.

The game’s premise:
Tenchi begins attending a new school, but the peaceful student life he hopes for immediately collapses when Ryoko, Ayeka, Mihoshi, Kiyone, Sasami, and Washu all find excuses to tag along, spy on him, compete for his attention, or “protect” him from non-existent threats. Their presence triggers misunderstandings, accidental battles, and supernatural mishaps—often resulting in hilarious consequences.

Gameplay Structure

• Visual novel style progression

• Multiple dialogue choices influencing routes

• Character-specific events

• Comedy, romance, slice-of-life, and school hijinks

• Light puzzle elements and exploration scenes

• Animated cut-ins and voiced dialogue from the Japanese cast

Routes play out differently depending on which girl you spend the most time with, and the tone stays true to the classic Tenchi Muyo! humor—jealousy fights, alien tech malfunctions, and dramatic overreactions.
