Manga 'Ranma ½' Gets New Anime Adaptation

@SidVicious weak argument. we deserve adaptations of stuff that have not been adapted yet, not stuff that already got quality adaptations.

Seriously? Leave this shit in the past for Christ sake, these horrible products of their era are not fit for 2024 and beyond. So many garbage adaptations of garbage source material recently.

If it's again the same studio as Urusei Yatsura, then the chances of them animating Hokuto no Ken remake are low.

rumors are saying mappa will adapt this i hope thats wrong

@Lucifrost - huh, I hadn't been following Urusei much, interesting that it was just specific parts. Thanks for letting me know.

So Ranma wasn't a full adaptation. I know there was a LOT of filler, so I guess I should have expected it. But it also had a lot of OVAs and movies. Any idea how close it was to being fully adapted?

I guess this new version might do something similar to Urusei then.

Damn, I wonder if they'll do inuyasha as well.

I'll watch closely how will they handle this adaptation by adapting good chapters or fan favorites. It's better not be best picks like UY remake which is very underwhelming. They need to tone down Happosai and decrease his screen time to make an enjoyable watch because that shit is so unbearable. And also I hope they could made the romantic development between Rankane better too.

The problem with Happosai isn't so much that people would be offended, but rather that compared to the late 80s not that many people would find his behaviour funny, especially since it was his whole shtick that was repeated over and over again in the original series to the point of annoyance. So I think it's not a question of whether he's shown in good or bad light, but mainly how much he adds to the comedy.

@VivaceRex forget happosai. the one who was much worse than him was principal kuno. he tortured ranma lots of times

@Feorg in my opinion principal kuno was much worse than happosai he tortured ranma most of the times instead of make moves on him

Another romance with an abusive tsunbitch female lead

Skip

@Elior21

Yeah Kuno was horrible. But Happosai appeared in so many more episodes that he's a bigger problem. Half of the principal's appearances are in his introduction arc, after that he just appears 2-3 times every season, whereas Happosai is a constant presence while adding nothing new.

@Elior21 Oh that fucking principal is also quite annoying with how he managed the school but he's not as terrible as Happosai though. That piece of shit is way more unbearable and his whole stealing women pants shenanigans ugghh...

Hollywood's not the only one lacking ideas huh. Another childhood classic ruined with a sparkly glow up in 3, 2, 1...

Don't change plans, watch SK and Ranma in their original glory.
