Synopsis

During their martial arts training expedition in China, Ranma Saotome and his father Genma suffered an accident, which in turn, afflicted them with a curse—whenever they are doused with cold water, Ranma transforms into a girl, while his father turns into a panda! Only hot water can reverse these changes, but any further contact with cold water opens the can of worms once more.

Unfortunately, the trouble does not end there, as Ranma finds out about his betrothal to one of the daughters of Soun Tendou, his father's closest friend. During the families' first meeting, it is decided that Ranma is to be married to Akane, the youngest daughter, a decision that is met with vehement protests from both sides. The two are simply not compatible, yet they are forced to live under one roof. Ranma's status quo further adds to the chaos, leading him to a series of comedic situations and misunderstandings that, in the grand scheme of things, may just be what he needs to work with Akane.

Classic Ranma 1/2 from ages past was known for a few things: slapstick humor, martial arts, striking character designs and with generous ecchi moments. This remake has most of those except for one major thing though: its strange aversion to anatomy. It might be going for the PG side of censorship which I am not really fond of but there's actually something else that this version did better: PACING.

Classic Ranma is loooong but it had a lot going for it nostalgia aside. It is entertaining, the characters are distinct and varied, the goddamn boppy opening and endings, and I had the biggest confused boner of ...

Very wholesome with cute animation, interesting characters and funny humor.
Only really disappointed by the blatant and subtle sexism.
Blatant sexism includes actively saying/ implying that women are weaker and less capable than men.
Subtle sexism shows in the the case that Akane - a really awesome and strong female lead - got more and more useless as the show progressed.
So many of the battles she lost she should have easily been able to handle.

Otherwise very wholesome and interactions between the betrothed could be really cute. Though a love story between two tsunderes is chaotic. XD
Cast is unique and characters will surprise you. Definitely enjoyed this re-edition of ...

In my opinion, Ranma 1/2 is an anime filled with nothing but trashy comedy and not at all funny. I didn't laugh at this anime at all. If you did, you probably have a very poor sense of humor. Almost all the characters feel stupid, and there's no meaningful development. There are many cliché scenes, such as the sudden appearance of a random character challenging Ranma to a fight based on his "skills," while the MC innocently and foolishly accepts it. For example, the ice skating scene is utterly absurd.

If you're hoping for romance, you'd better abandon your plans. The romantic element is barely noticeable; ...
