2nd Edition - Volume 3 - 1st printing. Story and art by Hitoshi Okuda. The trouble began when teenage Tenchi inadvertently released the marooned space pirate Ryoko from his grandfather's shrine. Now Ryoko and a gaggle of equally attractive and temperamental alien women are all competing for Tenchi's affections - and more. How much love does one poor Earth boy have to give? In a heartwarming take on the ancient tale of Daniel removing the thorn from the lion's paw, soft-hearted Sasami comes to the aid of a savage wolf. Then, in a tragic-comic story, jealousies flare when Tenchi's cute childhood girlfriend puts Ryoko and Ayeka through their paces to see who is more worthy of his affections.
