One of things that made the original OVA Tenchi Muyo interesting, and I think I mentioned this already, was that it had some unusual, sexual humor. This entire aspect of the show I think was removed from the cartoon network airings for understandable reasons. The show is actually more mature than many people realize
I do remember watching Tenchi, that when they censor any kind of alcohol reference like Sake, just change it to tea, I do remember they got like some kind of tongue-in-cheek thing when Ryoko was drinking at school, I think it was Sasami who said this, but she said something like "Ryoko, you can't drink THAT kind of tea at school"
That's really just a hint of some of the more adult stuff on that show. I'll try and be vague here as to not offend anyone, and I haven't seen the show in some time so my memory may be a bit fuzzy on some of this stuff.
There was a funny scene in one episode where Washu is running tests on Tenchi and needs a certain kind of "sample". She offers to help him deliver that sample
There was also an early episode where Ayeka tortures Ryoko and something happens indicating that Ryoko enjoyed it.
I remember a funny scene too where Ryoko wants Tenchi's sword and he interprets that the wrong way. I think he says something like, "no, it's mine!"and her response was, "no not that!"
There was some nudity in the show too.
God, I loved Ryoko. She was fun
They do this with other shows too. Dragonball had some naughty stuff that has been edited out for American tv, and I think DBZ was originally a far more violent show.
