[edit] Tenjho Tenge
Yep, that's the official name according to the manga covers. I can't say I like it though. -- Philip Nilsson 00:27, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Oh Great!
Was the H-manga "Silky Whip" also by Oh Great! ?
- This page suggests so. Philip Nilsson 17:03, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Silky Whip was indeed made by Oh! Great, and is available in English from Eros Comix. I hope some day that the japanese will have a legal licence to sell some manga "HENTAI" magacine
[edit] control chi
I didn't edit what I suspect to be a mistranslation: I suspect author meant to say she uses her control over her chi to shrink rather than she controls her chi BY shrinking. I'm not familiar with the story line so I refrain. It seems to be a confusion between cause (control over chi) and effect or result (shrinking). But perhaps she uses some magic or technology to shrink thereby gaining, changing or losing chi.Perhaps someone familar with the story line would step in?
- She changes her size in order to hold back. Alternatively as some kind of training. I think they explain the shrinking as some chi-ability. --Philip Nilsson 10:18, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Treatment of the character Bob
I've only progressed a very short way into this series so far (I am watching the anime), but I wanted to see if anyone else noticed the treatment of the character Bob in this anime. He is a foreigner, he is black, and he seems to be in a relationship with a Japanese girl, all of which would typically give writers reason to dislike him, and yet he doesn't seem to succumb to the typical stereotypes of most anime. Foreigners are loud and brash, violent, and typically stupid, and are outclassed by their Japanese counterparts in every respect--and that's for white foreigners, other ethnicities tend to get it even worse. And yet, in Tenjou Tenge, Bob so far seems to be very intelligent, soft-spoken, and even kind.
I just wanted to see if anyone else has caught on to the remarkably positive treatment this character has received in Tenjou Tenge. I find it to be very refreshing. And I hope that as I progress beyond episode 3 it doesn't do an about-face. --Kuronekoyama 04:57, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Black people are generally treated well by mangaka in my experience. <insert examples> --Philip Nilsson 10:18, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
You bring up an intresting point. The thing is, black charcters were almost non existant in anime int he beginning, but in the few anime that black charcters are in,they are treated fairly well. Examples are the aformentioned Bob Makihara as well as Jason Ozuma from Hajime No Ippo, Claudia and Bowie Grant from Robotech, ect. Most of them are seen as polite and the more level headed member of a particular group. Often, they are partially assimilated into Japanese society by having an American or English first name and a Japanese last name (another example besides Bob Makihara would be Jason Ozuma from Hajime no Ippo.)Mackarony 17:04, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
arent most characters in anime white? they have bleu or green eyes, red, blond or brown hair? what's not white about that? only their names are japanese...
Yeah it's rare to see black people in anime I always make fun of my friends becasue of that,but they really get irratated by me because I'm half black...--Cojin 02:24, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Character pages
i decided it was a travesty to not have any character pages for Tenjho tenge. especially since the series is awesome, particularly the manga, and it has some of the coolest characters in anime in my opinion. took it upon myself to fix that...someone else feel free to do some too, i'm lazy and i'm only gonna do characters i like.
--grimjaw 04:25, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I guess Aya and Emi aren't your favorite so I guess I'll start a sandbox on them. If anyone would like to help please help. Masterbeef66 05:50, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
What happened to the Character Page that the main article linked to? Nevermind, I fixed it. Offkorn 10:48, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
added Aya finally. --Grimjaw 05:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- i was thinking and i don't know who i'll do next, probably souhaku, tetsuhito, or ishyumi. as i've written every single character article i guess i'm the only one who's gonna do any of it so i better get to it lol. considering how long it took me to to aya, it may be another 50 years before i make more guys...again feel free to help lol. --Grimjaw 06:16, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
created souhaku, its probably gonna get rated start class tho. --Grimjaw 05:54, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
I added a template at the bottom of each character page to make navigation easier. half the names on it don't have articles yet but i'll try to do em eventually. unless someone has a reason to not make an article for the characters in each major group. i may even do some minor or supporting characters too. most will be put off at least till the end of spring break. --Grimjaw 04:02, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] About?
- fixed that problem lol --grimjaw 04:22, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
NO MANGA INFORMATION
The article just say ¨currently running in Ultra Jump¨ (???) C´MON , at least tell us how many issues have been published(tankobon?). Im not talking about the infamous american versions by DC.
--LOPETEGO
Just how bad are the CMX edits? The FIGHT CMX page hasn't been updated since June of '06, and from what I gathered there, it seems to mainly be done to edit out language and sexuality. I know the current TenTen manga volumber # is higher than 5, and I imagine people who are just now finishing the anime are wanting to get into manga as well, but without sacrificing the beloved fight scenes that make this series pure eye candy. I'm sure those of us who can't read the original work would love a little more explanation on the severity of the CMX edits. - BasilAcid
[edit] Anime Episodes
Hey there. I'm a little confused regarding the anime episodes' list. Though it's been said that there are 26 episodes, as far as I know there are only 24 - plus 2 OVAs, as has been stated at the beginning of the article. Can anyone explain me that a little better? Is that correct? - Haggen Kennedy 15:42, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- yeah man, the 2 ovas where 30 minutes long and pickedup where the anime left off...they're counting em as episodes. cuz they really are just a continuation of the anime, it probably should be more specific but it doesn't really matter. --grimjaw 04:23, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Plot summary
It's completely unorganized and is just a pain to read, so I put cleanup. I would like to do away with it and instead summarize the volumes and/or DVDs. WhisperToMe 01:00, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
I agree. There really should be two different articles. One for the manga, and another for the anime.68.165.229.42 04:41, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. Besides, the article uses loaded language.64.121.35.146 07:09, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Moved the plot summary to its own page to make the main page more streamlined. The Plot summary page still needs lots of work. (Duane543 16:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC))
[edit] New Season / 'OVA's ?
I havent heard anything about it in awhile, but are there any plans to finish the anime series? --SephirothYuyX 17:45, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Teen to 16+
Did CMX change their editting style when they changed the rating, or where they just trying to be more precise?Anthonzi 15:49, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
They lightened up on the editing quite a bit it seems starting with Volume 11. I skimmed through Volumes 11 and 12 and noticed all of fanservice intact, including some brief nudity. They may have started to grow some balls.
- don't suppose u know if they plan to re-release the old stuff with less edits? --Grimjaw 07:28, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Alot of manga from publishers have re-prints, with things such as dialogue and other fixes made to them, so there is a chance they may be re-released with less edits.
[edit] Wikipedia Picture
i think the picture for this page should at least include the major characters in this anime; so, i'm changing it.--Kid1412 02:38, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Characters
I can't stand it when they go to present I like the flashback arc everyone was so young and full of life,now they are all old and serious.My friends and I can't really stand the present characters.But how does anyone else feel? I wanna hear your opinions.--Cojin 02:21, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- shin was a badass and i really liked him, but i like the present more. Bunshichi is still awesome, kagesada is ten thousand times cooler, masataka is a badass, mouki was cool, and i think the story is more interesting (not that the flashback was boring). the present was gay at first, but it got cool after the anime cut off. --Grimjaw 02:27, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Masataka is cool but he's just to plain I mean Mitsuomi has freakin green hair and his is just plain looking.It's the same with Aya,oh of course Bunshichi will always be awesome but they need to show how strong he got.Yeah Kagesada is way more cool now he shou--Cojin 03:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)ld of been in that pic instead of taking it.
[edit] Releases
The volume section of the infobox; does it go by complete volume or current volume? If it is current then it should be changed to 17. (Duane543 03:29, 30 March 2007 (UTC))
- it says 16 vol. containing 99 of 103 released...so i assume its by complete. --Grimjaw 03:37, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Question
Someone put this in statement in the Tetsuhito Kagiroi trivia section; "The 14th tankobuken has Aya able to activate Reiki through a ladybug that is on Reiki which Maya then places inside her shirt. This is not illustrated in the monthly Ultra Jump version." I was just wondering if someone can verify the statement. (Duane543 22:44, 5 April 2007 (UTC))
