* ContinuityLockOut: Knowlege of the three ''Tenchi'' OVA series is essential to getting the most out of the show.

* MarryThemAll: Seina winds up marrying all eight members of his harem. Nine, if you include the questionable case of Fuku. This makes it symbolic as nine is an unlucky number in Japanese (similar to [[FourIsDeath four]])

* TheDeterminator: Seina suffers through days of a Physical Training regimen [[TrainingFromHell designed for cadets with]] SuperStrength just to prove to himself that he can make it.

* AllThereInTheManual: Knowlege of the three ''Tenchi'' OVA series is essential to getting the most out of the show.
* AttackDrones: In the second episode, the space pirates pursuing Seina's GP transport ship fire a barrage of {{Boarding Pod}}s that release a swarm of "rats" -- robotic drones designed to disperse throughout the ship and either hack it into submission or explode to sabotage as much as possible. Despite the force-field traps the GP ship deploys as countermeasures, the rats are able to damage the engines and force a BlindJump.

In December 2022, a new OVA series, titled ''Anime/TenchiMuyoGXPParadiseBegins'', was announced. Directed by Hiroshi Negishi, ''Paradise Begins'' is set during the Paradise War spin-off. Creator/HirofumiNojima will replace Shigeru Mogi as Seina Yamada, reprising his role from the fifth ''Ryo-Ohki'' OVA.

The focus character is Seina Yamada (Creator/ShigeruMogi), a young man with a kind heart, a spiky crewcut that is unusually pleasant to the touch, and [[CosmicPlaything the absolute worst luck ever]] (His bicycle frequently falls to pieces while he's riding it, doorknobs snap when he's trying to open them, windows and awnings collapse when he's under them, the horse you've bet on loses its jockey while you're listening when he passes, etc). The series opens with said luck bouncing him and anyone in his path around while he hurries to visit Kiriko Masaki (Creator/KumiSakuma), a childhood friend who just returned after months out of town. Tempting fate, he takes a shortcut by the home of Tenchi Masaki (Creator/MasamiKikuchi), whom he [[SenpaiKohai admires and respects]] -- just in time to be knocked in the lake by a passing spaceship. This begins his chance encounter with Amane Kaunaq (Creator/MarikoSuzuki), a Galaxy Police officer who had stopped off on Earth to make a delivery to Tenchi. She assumes that Seina knows about Tenchi's houseguests, and she's impressed that he survived the crash in such good shape, so she gives him an application form for the "GP" and tells Seina to look her up.

%%* {{Bishonen}}: Seiryo Tennan and Misao Kuramitsu.

In December 2022, a new OVA series, titled ''Anime/TenchiMuyoGXPParadiseBegins'', was announced.

''Tenchi Muyo GXP'' builds on both the formula and setting of the original ''Tenchi'' series. Creator/FUNimation has released this series in English, and it aired on the [adult swim] Creator/{{Toonami}} block on Saturday nights at 3:00 AM (following in the footsteps of the first two Tenchi Muyo! OVA series, Anime/TenchiUniverse, and Anime/TenchiInTokyo, all of which aired on the original Toonami block on Cartoon Network, albeit [[{{Bowdlerization}} heavily censored]]).

* GagBoobs: Vega, a RichBitch rival of Amane's from her model days, has a rather impressive pair.

* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Seina suffers this after being enhanced -- the excuse for the first round of InnocentCohabitation is him being trained to control it.

* [[DarkSkinnedBlond Dark Skinned Blonde]]: The Kuramitsu family, who practically run the GP. Gyokuren, a lesser seen member of Seina's harem, is a Dark Skinned White Haired Girl.

* WeddingSmashers: Happens not once, but '''twice''' in the final episode. The first being [[spoiler:attempted by [[ArchEnemy Tarant Shank]] being disguised as an assistant that appears to apparently help him get into his wedding attire, only to attempt to murder him, and nearly succeeds as he manages to get Seina alone, but fortunately fails due to Seina's cunning reflexes and wits.]] The second being [[spoiler:done by the other four girls not part of Seina's group that occasionally try and seduce him into either getting into his pants or attempting to marry him. They kidnap him, and the girls are alerted to this when the wrong "groom" appears in the form of Seina's sister and best friend Kai arriving in his stead and inform them of the earlier events. While they manage to get some distance away from Seina's group, the eventually manage to fail eventually as the Kamidake arrives and subdues them.]]
