| Bro why isn't anyone calling CPS on Ranma's dad that is legit child abuse. This was a great episode. So happy to have this show back. It's endless entertainer and really showing me why this series is so beloved. |
| I got a Masters degree. I don't have to worry bout school anymore. |
| bit of a weird ep since up intol now Ranma was portrayed like an iron fortress and suddenly.....weakness is cats xDDDD |
| Solid start, liked the first season as well. EP1 8/10 |
  |
| Ah, Gosunkugi, the character I never saw in the original series, as I hadn't watched that far. Well, this is an interesting start to season 2, and it was pretty fun. Ranma's fear of cats and the Cat Fist technique. It definitely went differently than the 1989 series. More Kuno in this one, as it's all him relying on Gosunkugi to find Ranma's weakness. And we end with Akane being the only one that can calm Ranma, and he ends up kissing her. Now she's pissed off at him, even though he has no memory of the entire thing. Lots of fun, and I'm really looking forward to this season. No idea how long it'll be, either. I'd be happy with a standard 24/25/26 episode season, as it is a rather long manga series. The opening theme is really catchy. I really like it. The ending is also pretty upbeat. Now, when do we see Ukyo? She's my favourite. |

| Pretty cool 1st ep of this 2nd cour, so Ranma is afraid of cats just because he got a hardcore cat training against starving cats and him having a collar of fish lol, but now that he became a cat itself (in his mind) he gave Akane a "cat kiss" that was cute xD |

| ..what? That cold opening was extremely unexpected. After it, i think i like enough already the new OP, even if more for the visuals than the audio department (the ED wasn't bad either, but probably weaker) Gosunkugi? Immediately? Now? Cool. i'm aware of the original manga / anime adaptation shenanigans but still expected him to debut a little later. And he's immediately on fire... shooting "secret" photos in front of him and using a pigtailed voodoo doll... at Tendo's home, and reprising his role into impersonating Akane himself replacing the original anime-only Sasuke. "if they discover my weak spot they will all laugh at me". Come on, Ranma, Kasumi wouldn't (and in fact, she didn't). On the side, it's amusing to listen to the same italian dub voice actress twice in the same day for Nico Wakatsuki and girl Ranma, and even in the remake she is afraid of cats even in the girl form. Still debating myself if that kiss actually counts, but it's always amusing to see his "so afraid of cats i will turn into a cat myself" phase. However, it's good to be back and hopefully unlike the Urusei Yatsura 2nd season remake this time there won't be disposable arcs with horrendous characters like Tobimaru's "mother". |

| That old-school comedy was extra potent in this episode |
| this was really goofy. I like it. |
| Watched this with my cat sleeping beside me lol All that thing about Ranma acting like a cat in front of everyone was hard cringe but the Cat Fist looks to be insanely strong lol Wasn't Shampoo supposed to transform into a cat? That will be fun to see. Glad this show is back, it's just fun. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Very funny first episode |
 |
| When I read the manga, I always thought he just kissed her cheek... well, maybe I was wrong. You go, Ranma! Also, nice callback to the very first OP! Nostalgic |
| WE ARE SO BACKKKKKKKKK |
 |
| so happy to see Ranma. I really love the chemistry between Ranma and Akane. |
| It's not become Ranma weakness but it's become his secret move XD |

on | Ranma's back for part 2 and i am hype af. Starting with the cat kiss episode. Its always been one my favorite scene of the series where ranma shows his actual affectionate side for akane.  Adorable and wholesome af <3 Gosunkugi being a weirdo again classic. This scene is gonna cause more problems especially with ryouga too Also the new opening Suiyoubi no Campanella is a banger. I need to listen more of their songs. The vibrant visuals just fit so well. |
| I really love the new OP, it's even better than season 1's. Lol, poor Ranma, everyone was being such a jerk.  The sheer absurdity of the comedy is making my stomach hurt, lmao.  Then there's this cute moment in the end.  Too bad Akane tsundere-punched him right after, but that is what brought him back to sense, so maybe that was what's needed, lol. |
