Four Frame Comics

Four Frame Comics are short comic strips that usually take a humorous poke at an anime show. Owners of the original laserdiscs or videos of the second OAV series may recall the Tenchi Muyo! Amagasaki four frame comic series that told the story of Tenchi's unfortunate schoolfriend, while owners of the import laserdisc for the Tenchi Muyo! In Love movie may recall Sasami's encounter with the octopus, lovingly portrayed as a four frame comic on the back of the box.

But they're only the tip of the iceberg. AIC has published a huge number of four frame comics to go with Tenchi Muyo in its various incarnations. The TV series alone has something like 120 separate strips, published as appendices to the TV series filmcomics.

This page will showcase a few of the four frame comics that I have access to. It'll grow as time and opportunity permits, and translations will be made when I can manage it.

This is a pair of four frame comics that grace the flyleaves of the little-known AIC "Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki" Comic Anthology doujinshi (AIC/Pioneer/Next Comic, 1996). The hand-written kanji is very hard to read, so don't expect a translation in the near future!
