Ranma ½ Special Episode 1 Discussion

THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Hah hah, I should have anticipated Ryoga's entrance a long time before it happened.

Shinosuke's story is so sad, I hope he lives in the end.
LOL Ranma is jealous when he shouldn't be ( even though Shinosuke's hot XD)

Pretty meh, hope next episode be better. But those gigantic animals were funny - I mean, seriously? All this years and still nobody noticed it? All the media was able to pull is only one blurry photo, while our heroes just straight walked into bunch of it just - well, by simply wandering around?

Since when did Akane become so curvy? Not like I'm complaining but remember Ranma calling her flat-chested lots of times but this really begs to differ LOL

The best Ranma episode so far.
Wow, even Akane's cooking tastes good there.
There has to be a way to save Shinnosuke without that water.

Akane had a growth spurt between the TV series and the 2nd movie/OVAs.
Girl filled out nicely.

Another pretty boring side-story about some dude who isn't relevant outside of this OVA :/

Love the OP and ED. I think the OVA OPs are actually better than the show OPs. That's probably a hot take.
The English version of the OP Boku Tachi Wa Kore Kara actually played in Movie 3. There's no English version of the Movie 3 OP. Not sure how I didn't notice it. According to the wiki, movie 3 was bundled as an OVA by Viz which was probably a smart move considering the short length of it.

This is kind of a serious episode but I enjoyed it. Definitely way better than Movie 1 and 2 with Akane getting kidnapped to be married off by a random guy. Jealous Ranma is cute lol.

I wonder why only the animals are getting gigantic by drinking the spring water but not humans lol. The Ops and EDs of these OVAs are infinitely better than the ones in the TV series.
