Who should be Tenchi's Bride?

by tnm128

The idea on most peoples minds of Tenchi Muyo is what girl he should go along with. I've been told that in the Tenchi Forever (3rd Tenchi Movie) that he has went with Ryoko (I have never seen the movie). But why Ryoko, why not Aeka, Sasami, Mihoshi, Washuu or Kiyone considering were following the first OAV series where all the women have a liking toward Tenchi. We can all say Ryoko and Aeka have the strongest feelings toward Tenchi and some might even make an argument about Sasami/Tsunami. We could easily knock off Mihoshi, Kiyone, and Washuu off the "women for Tenchi" list. Mihoshi adores Tenchi for saving her life numerously and being so nice to her. Kiyone....I don't really know. Washuu is a goddess and likes Tenchi cause he's interesting, nice, and sort of clumsy. They all don't show as strong feelings toward Tenchi as Aeka and Ryoko do. They would be better as close friends than lovers. Sasami will look like Tsunami the most beautiful women in the universe and can cook like none other and she might be willing to sacrifice her life for Tenchi (she never had the chance). Ryoko just doesn't have a very nice personality but she clearly loves Tenchi and would sacrifice everything for him. Ryoko also is seen to change personalities sometimes when showing her care toward Tenchi. Aeka also clearly loves Tenchi but doesn't really have as good a reason as Ryoko. her personlity is usually sweet, nice, and gentle, hence the fact that she turns completly raucous when she fights Ryoko for Tenchi's attention. Aeka works harder around the house than Ryoko's lazy ways. As of now I cannot decide who to go with; Aeka, Ryoko, or... Sasami/Tsunami. Sasami would be fit as a wife cause she knows how to cook, clean the house and plus a great personality that's very sweet. Another plus is that when she grow up she will be Tsunami, the most beautiful women in the world. Aeka has this nice and gentle personality and can work to an extent around the house. She is beautiful as well. Ryoko loves Tenchi for all the right reasons and is powerful. She is also beautiful. I would like to hear a reply to who they think this lover should be and their reasonable reasons based on the OAV series.
