This brings back SO MANY memories. Hopefully, they'll get through the entire series this time and characters who never made it into the original will be shown.

I'll cry if we see Herb

[@pond9875]

They are probably going to give the same treatment as Urusei yatsura. A lot of cuts since the OG is like 160+ episodes.

[@iczzephyr]

​@@RoxyArietis I read the manga till the end all those years ago... but I can only remember a few names among the main and side characters.. So..which one is Herb again? The duck dude? But he was in the anime right? l didn't watch much of the anime..

[@RoxyArietis]

@@iczzephyr No, Herb is the one that also turns into a girl, the Prince.

[@WilliamAGould]

That is what I am hoping.

[@emperorkalan]

You're free and clear to call Ranma "he/him" no matter the form. Very strongly identifies as male. The usual arguments don't really apply when magical curses are involved.

[@standheaykic66]

This is a reason why I'm concerned about the EN localization and the dub. There is a character in the show later that still misunderstand and insist that Ranma is genuinely a she/her. I hope the localizer see from this character point of view and not blatantly put they/them as lazy attempt for the sake of adressing.

Ohhh watching Ranma 1/2 in 2024 feel so weird tbh but I will still watch. It really brings back memories. Watched it last 2008 - 2010 where morning and evening anime will show up in our television channels in the Philippines. Good old times.

Nice reaction! Glad Ranma's finally back! 😁

[@hhjan594]

It makes sense calling Ranma he regardless of his body type, he always sees himself as a man even if he's a girl anyways. Though he totally has fun being a girl from time to time......

[@TeaTimeTable]

Just because you see yourself as such doesnt make it true - even if it was the reverse she'd still be a girl

[@hhjan594]

@@TeaTimeTable I think you want to go into some wierd arguments but it really doesn't matter in this fictional anime case. For Ranma's case it's way more complicated since he changes gender all the time, it would be way too annoying if he needed to change pronouns every time his body changes (and it's really unnecessary in his case). Quite sure in the show Ranma and people who knows him always use male pronouns to call him regardless of his gender. Ranma himself only uses female pronouns when he is actively trying to make other people believe he is in fact born as a girl. At least that's what I heard in Japanese, I don't know if the English sub or dub didn't follow that.

[@BigSister30]

This episode just hyped me a lot! The scene when ranma was discovered in the bathroom and then akane trying to lift up that garden decoration to hit him, was exactly as in the manga! I loved to see animated the actual reaction of ranma being catch as a dude on the bathroom

Not confirmed but some leakers were saying it's gonna be two cours and The first 12 episodes were done by at least june (They're leaked completely so they're finished). So Cour 2 probably at least Spring or Summer at most. Or it could tske even longer but I doubt it.

[@RastaGamesful]

I watched the old anime Ranma 1/2 before the remake. Overall it was decent, I especially liked the new opening (but still prefer the old one), and overall the action production is better for me than before.

[@richardryley3660]

All right!! Let's gooooo!!! 😂 First of all let me be the 1000th person to say you're thinking of Happosai. In the original Anime I believe there was a "Please Knock" sign. For the remake they made a few changes to ensure that Akane would walk in on Ranma by accident. Nabiki and Kasumi directed Akane and Ranma separately that the bath was available, and did not check with each other first. And Akane does NOT notice Ranma's clothes in the hamper as she did in the original. She probably thought she had the bath to herself. In the eecind case, Ranma was probably about to walk in on Alane without checking if she was in there first, but Akane opened the divider first. Ranma might have hesitated to open the divider because he suddenly realized Akane might be there, but it was too late. I prefer the original version from the 80's though. In Japan, it actually isn't considered unusual for people of the same sex to bathe together. In particular, Akane and her sisters would often bathe together. Look how big that tub is! So when Akane went to intentionally bathe with Ranma, she was symbolically welcoming Ranma into her family. Everyone else might have been disappointed that Tanma wax apparently a girl, But Akane was reaching out to someone she thought was like her. By removing the hints that it wasn't an accident, they make it more relatable to Western audiences. But the Japanese audience will pick up on the cultural subtext. I'm glad to see you watching this. I can't wait for the next episode. I'm referring to Ranma as "him" since that's what feels he is. I'll also note that par this point, Akane also refers to Ranma as "him" no matter what form he is in.

[@rikkishiratori]

this and DBZ were my first anime ever. i was obsessed with ranma 1/2 since elementary

[@MusicUnderMyBreath]

While I'm excited for the show, I'm even more excited for my next anime convention. Cause while I love anime, I'm more of a comfort rewatcher then seeking out new anime. So its starting to come to a point where I'm not recognizing a lot of the art work that fans are making, so next year hopefully I'll see more Ranma 1/2 that I can buy

[@mhicorivera7802]

This will be a riot on Twitter as some people will force their idea and make Ranma what they want to believe (Ranma himself hated this curse so much to begin with)

This was the first Manga I read as a kid. I remember shopping at Suncoast videos for the anime. That fact that Mappa is doing this is such a treat. This thing was progressive before progressive. Love it.

[@extraleague01]

You're right. Regardless of his condition, Ranma is definitely a boy, since he identifies himself as a boy, since he was born and continues to live as a boy. The thing with cold water turning him as a girl is just an unusual curse/condition, even if it's funny.

[@mangafurie7698]

Ranma 1/2, is a must-see classic. I remember that in France, there was a TV channel called Manga. It’s thanks to this that I got to know great animated classics of my big sister generation, Yū Yū Hakusho, Dragon Ball, Hunter x Hunter and of course Ranma1/2. Ranma isn't trans, he identifies as male

Quiero decir que eres de los pocos que an reaccionado a este cap de Ranma uno de mis favoritos por cierto y de mi madre igual lo miraba de pequeño con ella y me sorprende que tan poca gente lo reaccione incluso en la comunidad hispanohablante ya que en México y LATAM Ranma es mucho mas popular que en otros sitios del mundo diría que es más popular que en Japón

[@sally16]

I think it is wrong to say that Ranma is more popular in Spanish-speaking countries than in Japan. It is so popular in Japan that there is not a single Japanese person today, young or old, male or female, who does not know it.

[@richardryley3660]

Rumiko Takahashi is as beloved by we fans in the West as she is to you. 😊 There's not as much talk about it over here, but the fans are quite vocal.

[@IZEASGT]

In the 1990s, it was the most popular manga and anime among fans in America. Viz Media is the biggest manga publisher here, and their first big success was Ranma in 1992. If you look at archives of fanfic written back then, posted to places like the Usenet group rec.arts.anime.creative, about 30% of it was Ranma stories - it was the series everyone knew about. Lots of people wrote fanfic for it even if they hadn’t actually read the manga or seen the anime. I know people who were in those communities back then; they can tell you stories about all the arguments people would have about things like which girl would be best for Ranma. Inuyasha was also popular when it came out here, but by then anime and manga were much more popular - lots of kids were watching Pokémon, Dragon Ball Z, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and so on. By that time, Cartoon Network had even aired shows like Tenchi Muyo, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, and Gundam Wing. So Inuyasha didn’t dominate fandom in the same way.

[@TheStarkiller96]

Sadly Ranma became as many fans feared "censored". It was never a "corn" thing but what people call these days Ecchi. For my feeling it was always part of the whole Ranma being cursed. Now a big part is taken away. I hope the fun part won't go down so much. But for me as a german I am happy most voice actors from the OG show came back. except Male Ranma he died. That's why the rest never got translated.

[@iandriscoll8407]

What do you feel was "censored" in the 1st episode? It's almost a scene for scene re-creation of the 1st episode from the original version back in 87. ( I was curious, so I re-watched the old episode right after watching the new Netflix version). Or are you referencing the fact that the 87 version has discernible nipples in the bath scenes when there is no other obstruction in the way?

[@TheStarkiller96]

​@@iandriscoll8407 I do watch the german version. There are some chaanges in the words they use. (Thats not on the creator) But they changed the nippel parts. Made the towel with Akane bigger. Changed the way both stood when they met the second time. Original the view was from the side on both of them. And you could see them. Then Ranma's missing butt "crack" see has now basically one big ass cheek. Instead of two. Then when see was shown no nippel there. Which is weird. Same goes when Ranma falls into the cursed pit. And checks the chest. It is clear that some changes always happen but nippel? Like do women not have nippel anymore. And it was one of the important things back then. :D

[@Hawsk]

I agree, and it is a big shame that they decided to censor some scenes. Beyond censorship, I am afraid that some scenes will be completely removed or changed because there is too much political correctness these days. Some scenes are already slightly changed in the 1st episode. In addition, I have concerns about the color palette. For me, it is too candy-like.

[@TheStarkiller96]

@@Hawsk I don't care about politics or anything like that. Sometimes people where stupid and said stupid things. That change is good. But Nippels are Nippels and they are a part of the male and female body.

[@Someguyhere111]

Baldy is just a common (rude) way to refer to old people, whether they're actually bald or not Honestly I think Ranma was in his right to roast Akane that way given her accusation of him being a perv and still treating him as being in the wrong. He even apologised before, that's more than she did XD It's like alright, I tried to be peaceful but you're choosing violence, so the kid gloves are coming off

[@aethernity8270]

[@afrobeatsam]

The animation is great. They recreated a lot of the original panels from the manga. My only concern is if the comedic delivery will be as good as the original anime, good part of it I think is the background music. The og anime It had so many iconic themes that would define the silly and serious moments in each episode. The music , at least in this first episode is good but not memorable.

[@ag9953]

The pond curse is specifically about a girl so it's not just gender change, he will change into a young girl forever even if he's 50, even women can get cursed like this.

[@cjcskittlez]

Rumiko Takahashi would say he always identifies as a man but they act more genderfluid. The old anime Def has some episodes that read like Ranma's maybe acting like more of a man than she actually is.

[@cjcskittlez]

Anyway assign gender how u see it I ain't ur mom and ranma isn't real.

[@TheBarbarianGamer]

IDs as a man, acts female when it's funny, and constantly over-compensates for his masculinity. That's why he hates that Akane rejects him, because as a 80s man, NO girl is supposed to make him feel "less." He eventually becomes slightly less toxic, but he's a product of his times. I'd be interested to see how "PC woke" Mappa makes this series, or if the radfems cancels this all to hell. Either way, I'm bringing popcorn. 🤣

[@Otakuettes]
