Are you ready? What are your hopes and expectations?
Low
i don't have any expectations because they haven't shown us anything but a back side promo art and that actually dampens my expectations even further because usually that suggests a snag or snafu
>>281857390Realistically how'd they look in the remake? I'd be happy if they look like this like pic rel
I expect Hikaru to be very cute.
>>281857390Lots of CGI.And lots of changes to appeal the modern audiences.>bro, they are like 14, is better this way!
>>281857390I just started watching the OG the other day and was surprised by the pacing. It’s actually quite good. I always had it in the back of my mind that old anime were generally badly paced with way too many fillers. The remake would honestly benefit if it followed a pace like Dungeon Meshi. Any faster and you’d lose the feel and tone of the journey.
i feel like this was announced at around the same time the ranma remake was announced, but now the latter is about to hit season 2 and we haven't seen a single drip of footage for this one
>>281858838It's only been a year.
>>281858870well apparently i'm not wrong about it being around the time the ranma remake was announced, which was in june 2024, and subsequently aired in october of that year
>>281858711The manga was only 3 volumes and the anime did indeed have some fillers and anime original. It's gonna be 12 episodes in the remake.
I hope it will be good, but it probably won't be.
>>281858838Ranma was already well in production when they announced it. The Rayearth remake was announced for the 30 year anniversary so the project was still in the early stages.
>>281859847>The manga was only 3 volumesI see 6 books
>>281859954The other three is Rayearth 2.
>>281858677>lots of changes to appeal the modern audiences.>bro, they are like 14The girls were never lewded so there's nothing to censor besides the transformation sequences maybe.
>>281857390Kenshin 2025 flat animation.
>>281860408Noooooooo anything but that
>>281857390I expect more Umi sex.
>>281860466Umi is built for midget porn.
>>281858643She's always very cute.
>>281858643Based
>>281857390Endless porn fanbooks
>>281861521We barely got any new Urusei Yatsura or Kenshin porn.
>>281861542why
How about a proper adaptation of RG Veda instead of adapting some random chapters in the middle.
>>281861521There are regular doujins from this one guy but they're kinda shit
>>281857390I want some feet service that was severely missing from the old anime.
>>281857390I still need to watch the old one for reference. Absent that, all I can hope is it lives up to the manga.>>281858510That would be acceptably cute.>>281858643Based.>>281859954>dat newer CLAMP styleInteresting. They look good except Lantis, who has a completely different vibe without the old sharper features. He looks way younger and like 90% less manly.
>>281858711I dropped around episode 6 actually and waiting for the remake. felt like watching the early part of Yuyuhakusho.>>281862491Since someone's interested, guess I’ll dump the new covers in full-res glory.
>>281862681
>>281862695
>>281862712
>>281862725
>>281862738
>>281862681Awesome, thank you! Not as SOUL as the big pointy eyes and more-elaborate coloring, but recognizable.>>281862757Lantis looks a little better at full size, but still on the soft side.
>>281861521I'll be pleasantly surprised and conflicted if it actually gets enough attention for that. You vill eat ze AI slop....I wonder if Wai-NSFW-Illustrious recognizes the character names?>it doesscared.jpg>>281861656It do be like that sometimes.
>>281862974Yeah, it seems like they intentionally went with flat coloring for all their premium collection covers. It's kind of a strange choice since CLAMP is one of the few manga artists whose drawing skills haven’t declined with age.
>>281862725Slut
I hope Nova shows up. Love the anime original character
>>281857390I want to believe. We'll see.
>>281860355>The girls were never lewdedWasn't there a group bath episode?
Hikaru was my gateway drug
>>281863674depends on how they adapt it this time around, they could go the sailor moon crystal route and all
>>281863097cute slop, now do the other two
>>281865307Specifying Rayearth works a lot better than specifying CLAMP, as it turns out.
>>281857390The promo image changed red to pink, that alone makes it a solid 1/10 deserving of all the hate, really hoping here they realize and fix it for the actual show.
>>281866717If nu-Ranma has pink hair so must nu-Hikaru. It's how it is.
>>281866717It's not THAT pink, just the bright lighting.>>281866908Kek, I can get behind that logic.
>>281864844Not in the manga so it won't be in the remake + they were wearing towels even in the water so you didn't see shit.
>>281867252>already starting with the same excuse used in RanmaIt's over.
>>281866335If you use CLAMP instead, you get something more like their new style, if you're lucky. There's some consistent difficulty with Fuu.
>>281867372Ranma had fanservice in the manga though. The reboot was just censored slop. There's nothing to censor in Rayearth.
>>281867503And if you're unlucky, it gets real bad. Even adding Rayearth back in doesn't restabilize it. I guess this particular model isn't great for CLAMP.
>>281867503>>281867738this looks more like a generic visual novel knockoff
>>281867503Bottom looks like it's getting her mixed up with Fuu Inubouzaki from YuYuYu
Occasionally cute Takeuchi results.
>>281858510This artist is goated. No anime can look like this.
>>281869465I wonder why it insists on giving Fuu braids or pigtails
>>281869580>rare FuufagNoice
>>281858838>>281858870>>281859396Rumiko Takahashi's status in Japan is many times higher than Clamp's, and her anime adaptations are prioritized over Clamp's.Clear Card S2 is not on the list of new anime releases for October this year. If there's no new news by April 2026, it means Clear Card S2 will be delayed until 2027.Clear Card S2's production cycle will take at least three years, and could even take four.The Ranma 1/2 remake, from the official announcement of the new anime to its official television broadcast, took less than a year.
>>281870074
If Magic Knight Rayearth and Clear Card are given the same priority, a remake of Magic Knight Rayearth wouldn't air on television until 2028-2029 at the earliest.
>>281867533>Ranma had fanservice in the manga though. The reboot was just censored slop.The Ranma remake only removed nipples. Why are we talking about this? Rayearth doesn't have any fanservice.
>>281870160>until 2028-2029 at the earliest.holy fucking christ
Who do you think will be the VAs?
>>281857390>hat are your hopes and expectations?pantyshots.lots of .umi's specifically.
>>281857390If they change the OP music, we riot.
>>281857390Cute Umi. That's all.
>>2818704202028 was ten years ago.
>>281870802Nu-gen zoomer hoes
>>281871311Name a remake that kept the old music.
>>281870802Hopefully they didn't change Fuu and Umi's voice. I liked their voice.
>>281873956I've only heard Hikaru's once through a SRW clip, and it was lower than I imagined. Really need to watch the show one of these days.
>>281870310>Rayearth doesn't have any fanserviceExactly. There's nothing to censor in Rayearth, that's what I'm saying. It can't be ruined because of modern times.>The Ranma remake only removed nipples>onlyNipples are 90% of nudity. Without them, you might as well be watching shounen slop like Fire Force and Fairy Tail. And it wasn't just the nipples. The framing of the nude scenes made them tamer than in the og.
>>281857390I just don't see the point of all of this. At best it will be a more literal manga adaptation but Rayearth is kind of like Sailor Moon in that the anime really kind of made it better. I like it still but it was really really short. In the worst case though it will be the same thing as what we already got but somehow worse like the new Kenshin series.
>>281876903every classic anime is getting a remake nowadays. the ponit? money of course.
>>281862681>felt like watching the early part of YuyuhakushoSo it felt like pure kino?
>>281877087It's appallingly cynical.
>>281876903Money? I'm almost sure the announcement was to promote an event and the anime will make people buy new products, it will obviously be inferior to the original as always but that's kind of irrelevant.
>>281877137Is there any downside to this though? old fans will get new shit including fan content. and new to the series like me are get to watch this show in a shiny new package.
>>281877297>old fans will get new shit including fan content.Rayearth wasn't exactly a franchise that's lost steam. It just had two appearances in Super Robot Wars not long ago and already got new models. It never really stopped getting fan art. Either. This wasn't something that fell into obscurity. If you want to reboot something do RG Veda, finish X. Do something that needs it. Wasn't there gonna be a Tokyo Babylon that got cancelled? >and new to the series like me are get to watch this show in a shiny new package.You shouldn't have any issue watching the older version, which is almost certainly going to still look better anyways.
>>281877297>and new to the series like me are get to watch this show in a shiny new package.I don't wanna get into an argument but I just wanted to say I hate when people say this.
>>281877297With remakes, my one fear is drastic redesigns that look worse, but in this case the knights look the same from behind, which is reassuring.
>>281877645I always feel like any time something is remade the new version pushes the older one further and further out of the public conscious. And I hate having to specify year or the good one.
>>281857390The remake will suck, just like the original. The 3-part OVA was the best Rayearth.
>>281857390Porn, lots of it
>>281877733This happend with CCS as well. What everyone loves is OG Sakura and yet all the new promotional things are done in the Clear Card artstyle.
>>281877855I feel like we should have learned this from Sailor Moon
>>281877137>>281877258I'm okay with this remake. The show is over 40 years old. A new coat of paint helps extend the popularity of an IP.Rose of Versailles needs a series remake too. thats older than most millenials
>>281877895>The show is over 40 years old
>>281877895I think you might have your math off a bit there, zoom tard. In any case in both examples the shows in question aged better than most newer shows age now. There is nothing you can add to the old show to improve it.
>>281877916>>28187792830 years old is quite old. We are closer to 9/11 than we are to Rayearth.
>>281877928it can be improved by removing Nova completely.
>>281857390It's a rare case where the remake has pretty strong potential to be better than the original. Each half of MKR would fit pretty well into 13 episodes, and without the bad anime original elements of the 90's version dragging it out, it can easily be a lot better than the 90's anime.There's no way they will be able to have an opening song better than Yuzurenai Negai though.
>>281878097We are closer to 9/11 than we are to 9/10. Really something to think about.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9iSfd7K4Ck
>>281878097So fucking what? Things don't turn bad after a certain date. The old show is still good. >>281878115Not flipping likely.
>>281878204No the old show is bad because of Nova. Nobody likes original anime bullshit from some faggot director adding his original donut steal bullshit to the manga.
>>281878224Harsh disagree
How come Rayearth is the only Clamp property that gets attention now a days?
>>281878443Card Captors got a sequel 5 years ago. Rayearth had a remake annoucement.
>>281878443You have no idea how badly I want a proper RG Veda series.
X has some hot chicks
I look forward to the reaction to Hikaru wanting to marry everyone.
>>281879192Is this horseshoe theory but with pure maidenhood and sluthood?
>>281879192Technically speaking, how old is Lantis?
>>281879457First produced in 1993 so 32.
no yuzurenai negaino watch
>>281879457Old enough to be called a pedo and a groomer.
>>281880460Damn youre 18?
Gitls love Fuu
>>281880612They self-insert as Fuu because she's the only slut.
I really like the game. Had a banger art style and music.Anyway, remember to requite love with evil women.
>>281880717Ugly hag
>>281857390>What are your hopes and expectations?That it brings a revival of the Magical Girl genre to start appealing to teen girls and fujos again instead of toddlers and lonely Ojisans.
>>281857390Umi sexo
>>281881075Nobody likes you Zagato. You can't even be the protagonist of doujins
>>281862738Are they gonna censor Umi’s lust for shotas for “modern audiences?”
>>281882356>lust for shotasShe didn't like Ascot and Clef was a middle aged dude.
>>281882466>shota that looks 5 but is really “a 1000 year old dragon”You know those sorts of loopholes don’t fly with normies, if they look shota/loli than they are, simple as.
>>281882637It's okay if the woman is the groomer. It's safe horny.
>>281880002See you when the first episode airs!
>>281882356Never mind that, are they going to censor Mokona's lust for Umi?
>>281879173No one reads X for the chicks.
>>281857390I think it'll be good
>>281884408CLAMP used to be edgy as fuck
>>281877733Yeah, that's partly why I prefer matching designs, so that new fanart remains applicable to both.>>281877855>>281877876I was thinking Muv-luv tier changes, or Mizuki from Guyver. Or DxD.
She's so perfect
>>281887182Anon she's 14.
>>281887182She created a killer.
>>281887341And can pass for a preteen>Captcha: G0PWW
>>281888002I still remember the first time I imagined how tight she must be. Then my fate was sealed.
>>281884333Imagine the outrage
i usually see umi love in rayearth threads so it's strange that more people are into hikaru here
>>281890953I like Hikaru and Umi equally, Fuu just a little less
>>281891176>Fuu just a little lessunderstood on that one, she can be kind of annoyingi remember one person's comment that just stuck with me in a way for many many yearsthat fuu's role in the party is to point out the obvious
>>281876903Nah, the manga's better
Is it strange that my first time ever seeing the MKR girls was the "Seasons of the Sakura" VN?
>>281893267not at all
>>281887841That looks like official art… Is this yuri?
>>281894361Yes.
>>281857390>Are you ready?No
>>281857390its very likely, or essentially confirmed that this new anime is gonna follow the manga to a T, and the manga is very short already.since Villain!Caldina is surely gonna appear just in one episode, all i ask is that she is as sexy and well animated as possible. i mean, its just gonna be ONE mere episode, maybe way less since this is just getting one cour. well, that and that they dont try to kill Presea AGAIN.
>>281857390>Are you ready
>>281895323Why is this in Chinese and horizontally flipped?
>>281893267Yes.
>>281893639>>281897189Getting mixed messages here
This chick's art is god tier.
Built for sex with Cephiro oji-sans
>>281898931You mean Cephiro frogs
>>281896254>Hikaru>cowDoes not compute
>>281900770She's small but she's not flat
>>281857390I expect them to BUTCHER it, just like ALL fucking remasters past 15 years.
>>281887341___ __ ___!
They probably won't even have any chibi moments around this time.
>>281903366Yeah the transformation scenes are going to be the most important thing for the remake easily.
How many shoujo isekais were there in the 1990s? I know (and have seen) this one, Fushigi Yugi, and Escaflowne.
>>281903090There were chibis in the manga though
>>281903090Good. Chibi is a cringe relic of 90s "comedy".
>>281904568The rest I think were shounen like Maze and El Hazard.
>>281869725It's not a common opinion, but Fuu's my favorite of the three as well.I'm also someone who prefers Umi with Ascot instead of Clef so maybe I'm just retarded.
>>281885609>That part where the one lady just shoots a sword out of her vagina
>>281905198what is the connection between Umi and a Jojo character
>>281903090If Kusuriya and Bisque Doll can do it, so can Rayearth.
>>281900770The point is she's childish and still wears onesies. I love her.
>>281903366They can't possibly live up to these can they?
>>281906187The Japanese is saying every CLAMP characters are either inspired by Kakyoin or Jotaro
>>281904568Tsubasa Reservoir ChroniclesTwelve KingdomsInuyasha (MKR was Shounen too so this basically counts)Cream Lemon/Fantastic Adventures of Youko/Valis although some of those are late 80sThat thing on Nickelodeon with the KoalasI was going to say Fushigiboshi no Futagohime and Yami to Boushi but apparently they were early 2000s. Also discounting a few 60s and 70s magical girl shows with princesses from other worlds.
>>281907024Probably not. But with the current sakuga fad they might make them extra flashy.
>>281904568Sora wa Akai Kawa no Hotori/Red River still doesn't have an anime adaptation.>>281907540>Fushigiboshi no FutagohimeIsekai?>Yami to BoushiShoujo?
>>281901660She's canonically flat and insecure about it.
>>281902397You have to try really hard to ruin Rayearth.

>>281910710Pic related?
>>281913264It had good aesthetics.
>>281913264Reminds me of their apperance in Tsubasa
>>281913264You can't ruin it assuming you follow the manga. This didn't.
