Ryoko-oneechan!
What are you doing here, Ryoko-san?
Can't you see?
What could it be...
Ryoko-oneechan!
Might those be for Ryo-chan?
Oh!
Here we go!
No carrot unless you catch a fish.
Ryoko-san, I think you're asking too much.
I don't think I'll wear these anymore.
Oh, I didn't know this shirt was here.
Oh, that's right. I left it at Grandpa's last vacation.
Huh?
Mum...
Episode 10
I love Tenchi
I'm home!
Welcome home!
Ryoko!
What is it, Tenchi?
Do I look good?
Really?!
Huh?
I wouldn't call it well-balanced.
Oh! It's nice, light and balanced.
Ah, Tenchi?
I hate you!
Ryo-Ohki?
No, I didn't mean you!
Ryo-chan!
Wait! You misunderstood me, Ryo-Ohki!
What's wrong?
Tenchi-niichan!
Ryo-Ohki!
Ryo-chan!
What's wrong?
Come talk to mama.
She's acting strange.
She doesn't seem to be around.
Oh!
Tenchi-niichan!
Have you found Ryo-chan?
Um, it's almost teatime.
She'll probably get hungry and come home soon.
Mihoshi-san, I'll go check the field.
You two wait in the house.
I'm sorry, Ryo-Ohki.
I apologize.
It wasn't you I was yelling at.
You see, I couldn't possibly hate you.
I have a good idea.
Let's take a lot of carrots home today, 'kay?
Oh, you're doing great.
It's real easy this way!
Uh-oh! Ryo-Ohki, someone's coming.
Quick, let me down! Hurry!
Ouch!
Ryoko...
Um...
I'm not angry anymore.
Really?
Yeah.
It's too heavy for you, Tenchi!
Let me carry it, please!
Hey, Ryoko!
That's okay. No problem.
Ryoko...
Ryo-chan!
We were worried about you.
Ah! I'll take it now.
That's okay. Just leave it to me.
You want me to take it there, don't you?
Y-Yeah.
I'm going to make lots of your favourite carrot dishes tonight.
Well then...
Here you go, Tenchi-niichan.
Thank you very much, Sasami-chan.
No. You stay home.
We don't want to be seen flying around again.
Just a minute.
I'll be done shortly.
You seem to be interested in them.
They live on a planet 23,000 light years away from here.
They are aquatic creatures.
Their name is MASU.
It means the original element of all things...
and they are used as your life base.
So no wonder you are interested in them.
Oh?
Um, Washu-sama.
I've come to tell you it's almost teatime.
Oh, no. Is it getting so late?
All right, all right. You can tell me later.
We must...
put an end to our relationship.
What? No way!
I love you, Chief!
I have a wife and children.
Please try to understand.
I still love you, Chief!
Think about your future.
Ryo-chan.
So you were just toying with me.
I wasn't toying with you!
I don't want to hurt you because I really love you.
I wouldn't mind being hurt.
What I have for you is eternal love!
Popoko...
Chief!
Oh!
Popoko...
Chief!
No, I can't do that.
It will just make you suffer.
Come on...
Suffer I will, but the love will overcome it all.
I think I hear something.
Popoko...
Oh, Chief!
Are you sure?
You won't regret it?
Never.
Chief!
Sorry to interrupt, but we have news to report.
Oh man.
Just when it got exciting.
The new Galaxy Police battleship Shunga has been robbed.
Ryo-chan, I'm ready for you now.
No progress has been made in the investigation since the robbery was discovered.
Oh my! That's awful!
It's a bit late, but...
I guess I'll have lunch now.
Oh?
Ah! Rice crackers.
No way!
Now we have a problem.
Is there something wrong with this tank?
The MASU were kept in that tank.
What is that?
Your father.
Eh?!
Hey, you!
I created you by using this creature with my egg cells.
Ryo-Ohki was made the same way, except it was with a mineral life form in her case.
What?
So it was Ryoko-oneechan's father who has escaped?
The MASU are gentle creatures by nature...
and wouldn't do anything like this...
unless some very specific factor interfered.
Just what is a MASU?
That's a good question, Ayeka-dono.
What's this all about?
Quiet, quiet. Thank you.
Now look up here.
This is a MASU.
So that is Ryoko-san's father?
I've always thought of her as a monster.
Turns out she really is a monster.
What did you say?!
Listen up!
The MASU act as a group and it is the will of their leader,
which is their brain, that decides the behavior of the group.
However, when the leader senses any other will stronger than their own...
they accept it as their brain and act accordingly.
Do you understand?
I guess you don't.
So ask me some questions.
Um, you mean if those MASU move around-
Raise your hand first if you have a question!
Yes!
Yes, Ayeka-chan?
Yes!
Will it cause any problem...
if those creatures move around on their own?
Yes. In fact, a rather big problem.
When attacked or exposed to extreme tension,
meaning when they feel threatened,
they have a habit of shooting out parts of their bodies at the "enemy".
What you see here are the remains of a spaceship destroyed by the MASU.
Wow!
How is it possible for such tiny creatures to generate such power?
That's because they are composed of matter, neutral matter and antimatter.
Normally, the antimatter is encased by neutral matter.
However, external stimulations can destroy this encasement.
This leads to matter reacting with antimatter, and therefore...
kaboom!
Professor!
Since Ryoko-oneechans's father is dangerous...
I think we should hurry up and capture him.
Our problem in finding the MASU...
is that they do not react to any searching systems...
such as light reactive and heat reactive systems.
The only way is to use our physical sights.
So here is the question.
How would you go about finding the MASU?
Answer, Ryoko-chan?
You're asking me?
Um...
I think we should all go and look for them.
Boo! Wrong!
I think that if we can find the factor that has affected them,
we will know where the MASU went.
Excellent answer.
And this is the factor.
How do you know that?
If anyone communicated with the MASU, it must have been her.
She was the only one in front of the tank.
If you know all that,
why don't you just ask Ryo-Ohki?
In order to find out where the MASU went...
we'll check her memory with this.
No, you can't!
No! No!
You can't check her memory without her permission.
You can't do that to Ryo-chan. Poor thing.
But...
Ryo-chan...
Good girl.
That's strange.
The main OS should be in here.
It's nothing but carrots.
And in this area...
Oh, there is some data about us.
Let's see the most recent data she has.
Ryo-chan wanted to help Tenchi-niichan.
You are...
so cute!
But wait!
If the force behind what's moving the MASU is the will to help Tenchi-dono...
Then the MASU went to Tenchi-sama!
But you said Ryoko-san's father is a gentle person by nature just a moment ago.
Who's my father?!
Washu-sensei!
If the MASU sense the hidden power inside Tenchi-dono...
Oh, no!
They will certainly attack him!
Tenchi!
Ryoko!
"Be careful, there's a barrier up there."
...is what I wanted to tell you.
I wonder if that's one of Washu-chan's experiments again.
Uh... excuse me...
Excuse me...
Watch out, Tenchi-sama!
That creature is very dangerous!
Don't move!
You'll only incite them if you move!
You could've told me that a little sooner!
Please stop it, honourable father!
Your daughter grieves over you!
But it looks like that's a woman.
Oh!
Ah, so it seems.
Now don't you dare to move, either!
Not while we're in the MASU'S territory.
What do you mean "in their territory"?!
You mean to say...
Settle down, unless you want to scare it.
We'll be just fine. Our decoy is on the way.
Decoy?
That damn Washu...
Whoa! I'm finished for sure!
Tenchi!
So I guess this is it?
Ryo-Ohki!
Ryo-Ohki! Assimilate and control!
Ryo-chan!
Ryoko's father!
Ryo-Ohki!
Ryo-chan!
Washu-sama, is she going to be all right?
Washu-oneechan!
She's fine.
Let me see?
You seem to have assimilated. Say something.
Ca...
Ca?
Carrot.
Oh!
Here.
Ryo-chan!
My! My!
Ryo-chan, are you all right?
You need to practice walking, Ryo-Ohki.
What a day.
Here, this way, Ryo-chan.
There. You can do it.
This way.
Good, Ryo-chan. That's the way.
Shall we go now, Sasami-chan?
Thank you, Ryo-Ohki.
Off we go now.
Though I sense you're nearby,

...I have no way of reaching you.
