As a constructive distraction from the main production, I've started working on a sort of detailed rundown of all the main characters from Garrick's perspective. Think of it as a sort journal kept by Garrick. While the story itself has all the blow-by-blows, the journal has in depth essays about each of the characters, and all in Garrick's own voice.
I'm making this out of response to Dartz at one point saying that while he found this interesting, he was at a handicap not knowing much about Tenchi Muyo at all. It will not only include the basic character bios and pictures of said characters, but also Garrick's own thoughts about them as people.
Another reason is due to information I've gleaned from reading the (rough) translations of the Shin Tenchi Muyo novels. Unfortunately, they don't cover as much information as I'd hoped they would. I think I'll have to go hunting for scanslations of Kajishima-sensei's doujins as he has a tendency of writing them simply to explain the background. Even so, I'm probably going to have to just go with some educated guesses.
One revelation that I had from the light novels is that Ryoko actually had quite a bit of leeway under Kagato's control. In fact, it seems that whenever he had nothing for her to do, he just let her do whatever! This would really explain a lot about her attitude, and I'm going to have to go back and tweak a few things because of it. (On that note, I still believe that when they say she had a 'poor sense of taste' they meant in the sense that a Redneck has a 'blissful lack of sophistication' and therefore couldn't appreciate gourmet food like others do.)
