Series of 5-minute episodes slated for October
Representatives from the city of Takahashi in Ai: Tenchi Muyo! will be set in Takahashi, as the city hopes fans will come on a "pilgrimage" to see the setting of the anime, and plans to sell goods and host related events.
The series is slated to run for 50 five-minute episodes on Tokyo MX starting in October.
The town is raising 16,840,000 yen (US$165,293) in advertising expenses. Tenchi Muyo! creator Hiroaki Inoue is attached as the producer for the series. Kajishima is also from Okayama Prefecture, where many works in the Tenchi series take place.
