The tenth installment of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "Kiss of Death," was yet another fantastic episode for the season One of my favorite characters finally makes an appearance And of course, it is never a boring day when following Ranma Saotome Hilarity will always follow the most unusual occurrences. The episode takes off where things left off[...]

The ninth episode of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "I'll Never Let Go," was a great episode that showed how far Ranma and Akane have come along We finally make it to the day of the skate-dancing martial arts competition to determine P-Chan's fate And, of course, we know Ranma's battles from crazy to unhinged, each time[...]

The seventh and eighth episodes of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "Hot Competition" and "Darling Charlotte," were hysterical rollercoasters of silliness It was one challenge after another, making it hard for Ranma and Akane to get to know one another properly These past episodes reminded me of that episode of Family Guy in which Stewie asks about[...]

The sixth installment of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "Kodachi, the Black Rose," was a laughter fit You think Kuno was unhinged? Well, in this episode, you will find out it seems to be a family trait Every story in Ranma just escalates and goes balls to the wall I love that Ranma brings so much joy[...]

The fifth installment of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "Who Says You're Cute," was another fun little adventure I really enjoy the humorous, awkward teenager phase feels this anime continues to carry perfectly Between the beautiful and colorful animation, the story, and the dialogue, this is definitely the gem of this season so far. Things start off where[...]

The third and fourth episodes of Netflix's Ranma 1/2, "Because There's Someone He Likes" and "The Hunter," were wonderful (insert chef kiss) The show definitely maintains the tone and comfort levels of the stories Between the colorful animation and nostalgia, this anime is in contention along with Dan Da Dan for the best anime of[...]

This month, Netflix has brought back a fan favorite in Rumiko Takahashi's Ranma 1/2 The first two installments, "Here's Ranma" and "I Hate Men," were wonderfully fun opening chapters of the reboot of Takahashi's manga and anime of the same name It was one of my favorite anime growing up and so far, this new[...]

In just a couple of months, a fan favorite by Rumiko Takahashi will be returning to screens: Ranma 1/2 will be coming to Netflix in October The anime seems to be packed with all the wonderful things we so nostalgically recall The characters and animation look so beautiful and we already cannot wait for the[...]

That has ruined my confidence in any anime I watch in English because it leaves me wondering what most likely got cut off or if I am getting the full version as intended (and not an edited/censored version based on someone's hang-ups) . Ranma 1/2 original with English subtitles (Image: screencap) I prefer watching anime in Japanese[...]

I cannot begin to count how many times I have watched Cardcaptor Sakura, Digimon, or Ranma 1/2 this year so far You know, not counting every other year before. While having a conversation with my editor we were discussing how many people keep floating back to shows they have watched before, be it Friends, The Office,[...]

Though nothing will ever compare to the way the Brave Heart song makes me feel when it starts playing: invincible. Ranma 1/2: This was a favorite growing up and the beginning of very uncomfortable conversations with my parents as it was not censored in DR Despite being silly and hysterical, I always loved how strongly it[...]

Ranma 1/2 was full of hijinks, but it was also eye-opening to someone young and full of thoughts about gender and sexuality I was still figuring myself out in a lot of ways.
