Ranma ½

This reboot is awesome. Its the same story as before. A boy named Ranma Saotome who is a martal artist falls in to the cursed spring of the dead girl. When ever he is hit by cold water he becomes a girl. He mush be hit by warm water to become a boy again. He is forced into an arranged marrage with a girl named Akane Tendo. Akane and Ranma have a love hate relatanionship that is exasperated by the arranged marrage. Several other characters are in love with Ranma and Akane respectivly. There is a martal art for litteerally everything. In the original Japanese version the original actors returned. In the English version we got brand new voice actors. I am so used to the orignal dub actors and I like them the best but the new actors are great too.

I watched Ranma when I was younger, so I was initially skeptical, as I'm not usually a fan of reboots. But this show truly knocks it out of the park! It stays true to the original source material while adding a fresh twist. The characters are super likeable without ever getting on your nerves. Some parts of the story are totally absurd, but that just makes it even more fun to watch!

It's got humor, emotion, and tons of action. The charm of this series really shines through - it feels like the creators knew exactly what they wanted to bring to the table, and they nailed it. Great animation style and music too. I'm really enjoying it, and I'm sure anime fans will feel the same!

I had my doubts about this one because the other recent reboot of a Rumic series, Urusei Yatsura, doesn't cut it since the humor is just too dated. For those too young to remember, Rumiko Takahashi was arguably the first female manga superstar back in the 1980s. There were female mangaka but they had been limited to genres specifically aiming at young women, Rumic was the first to become a mainstream craze (CLAMP came later). She's probably most famous for Inuyasha because it ran forever, Ranma 1/2 was a very successful manga but the anime only ran for two seasons. The story has the light zany characteristics of her work, teenagers trapped in gender-bending complicated romance constellations, but it's the constant action which make the manga - and this series - such a delight. For us older ones, it's a reminder that times back then were a lot less complicated, for the younger ones, enjoy! There is nothing to get mad about in this one.

Personally I give the anime a full 8.5/10, It does recapture the Original anime and manga.

My only complaints Are the voice performances They sound pretty wired because I watched the 90s anime and the dubs voice actors were quite amazing! To hear but hopefully I grow to like them!

I do like the animation! And the way it's more like manga then the anime from 1989 I like The way that they are going with this!

The Frist episode 1 was actually true to the original series and manga! I give it a. 9.5/10! Because on how it looks and the way it stuck true to the source material! And the story!

Impressive I hope The series gets better so we can get this 8.5/10 to a 9/10!

This is a childhood favorite of mine. I am lucky to understand Japanese and watch it in Japanese so to hear the original actors voices again has me feeling very nostalgic. The animation choice for the fight scene was interesting and the sound effect in Japanese on the screen like the manga was also interesting. It took me a second to get used to it. I am bummed they didn't keep Ranmas girl hair bright red. But I'm excited to watch the rest. I kept pulling up the original episode to compare and I think they did really well. I hope they are able to re do every episode and not just the 12 that they have planned.
