The
story opens with the destruction of the Galaxy Police headquarters.
One of the most powerful, but feared and vicious criminal to ever
exist has pulled off the impossible and escaped from sub-space,
and now he has a thirst for the blood of Jurai. The entity's name
is Kain, brought havoc upon his place of capture, and is seen
flying off into space, heading for Earth. After a moment, a variety
of different scenes of the main cast begin to play, showing them
in rolls and places that are rather confusing, making you wonder
what exactly is going on. The brief montage fades out into an
amateur film of a young, beautiful girl named Achika. Tenchi and
the gang are relaxing late one night, watching the old home movies,
and everyone is shocked to find out that the girl they have been
watching is actually Tenchi's mother.
Things, however, don't stay normal for long. Suddenly, Achika
disappears from the film, and Tenchi goes flying through the air
before anyone even has a clue as to what's happening. Luckily,
one person already has a grip on the situation: Washu. Sensing
a disturbance in the balance between time and space, she hurried
to the room, and saved Tenchi using a force shield before he "disappeared."
Before he disappeared? It seems that something has happened to
Tenchi's mother in the past, and Washu proves this by looking
at the film footage, on which Achika slowly vanishes, frame by
frame. Thus, at that moment in relative time, whatever happened
to Achika caused Tenchi to never be born, and he was almost erased
from existence. Washu has a slight idea of when the disturbance
in time and space happens, but beyond that, little else is know
as to what it is that has happened, or why. A decision is made,
and only one solution is seen: Travel back into the past, and
make sure nothing happens to Achika.
Tenchi, Ryoko, Aeka, Sasami, Mihoshi, Kiyone, and Ryo-oh-Ki all
arrive in 1970, and position themselves in different places near
Achika to watch over here; Ryoko and Aeka are students, Kiyone
a school janitor, Mihoshi a teacher (!), and Sasami and Ryo-oh-Ki
watching after Tenchi, should he start to break into non-existance
again. Meanwhile, Washu is back in the present, trying to figure
out exactly what it is that causes Achika to be lost,
and continues to update the group as to what she has found. Finally,
the pieces of the puzzle begin to fit together. Kain, the class-4
criminal, was captured by the house of Jurai. Finally free, he
seeks revenge against the family of Jurai, and has chosen Achika
as his current target. Time slowly runs out until the time in
which Achika is set to dissapear, and a fierce battle erupts between
Tenchi, Noboyuki (Tenchi's father), Achika, and the criminal Kain.
After a few false alarms, Washu pinpoints the exact time of the
attack: when the school goes to Tokyo Tower for a field trip.
So the crew set up a trap for Kain.
At the field trip, Kain makes his move.
Tenchi rushes in to save his mother(who's a high-schooler at the
time). Kain senses a Jurain presence but can not distinguish whether
it radiates from Tenchi or Achika. After a struggle, Kain is sucked
into the trap, but not before he grabs Nobuyuki(Tenchi's father)
and Achika. Frustrated, Tenchi, Ayeka and Ryoko find a way to
get into the trap as well. Tenchi, Ayeka and Ryoko try fighting
Kain but it seems useless. When Achika wakes up and finds a beat-up
Nobuyuki, her Jurain powers manifest themselves. She transforms
into a Jurain kimono, grabs Tenchi's sword, and slays Kain.
In the end, Kain is no more and the gang is pulled out of there.
With Achika safe, Tenchi is able to be born. The movie ends with
a sentimental scene where Achika tells Ayeka and Ryoko to take
care of Tenchi. After that you see a bunch of scenes from when
Tenchi is born and named, to where the whole gang is there taking
a group photo.
