"Ranma ½" (Remake) New Key Visual, PV
Premieres October 5. The new PV is here. Check out the ANN article for additional cast and staff information. Of note is that there is a large amount of returning cast from previous Ranma anime. Synopsis of the manga from AniList:
Years ago, Genma promised his old friend Soun Tendo that Ranma would marry one of Soun’s three daughters and carry on the family’s martial arts school. Except that the girl picked to be Ranma’s bride doesn’t seem to like him, Ranma keeps getting into fights…and did we mention that whole changing into a girl thing?
Imagine the eggs that are gonna crack
This is a gender bender? Sign me the fuck up.
- Not an egg. Most likely. But Twintails and OniMai made me feel warm.
🙏🏼☺️
They did a surprisingly good job with Urusei Yatsura, will be fun to see this one.
I tried to watch the UY remake, not having seen the original, but I just couldn't get into it. I'm not sure why, since I've enjoyed most of Rumiko Takahashi's other works. I do recall it looking very good stylistically, though, so I'm kinda excited for the Ranma ½ remake.
I read the manga a long time ago and I thought it was fun but it got so repetitive and formulaic that I got completely bored and stopped reading it like 8 volumes in IIRC. Will probably give this adaptation a try, maybe that aspect will be improved.
Loved Ranma 1/2, but there was a lot of filler in the anime, hopefully they streamline things a bit more in the remake.
MAPPA remaking Ranma 1/2 is a pleasant surprise.
Now I just wish they'd do a season 4 of Hajime no Ippo...
Mashiba Vs Sawamura still not animated is criminal
