The second season of Ranma 1/2's Demake by MAPPA comes out next month, it is going to be only 12 episodes long like the first one, they're skipping some chapters like the Tea Ceremony one and Mousse's VA is being recasted Thoughts? IMO at this point it feels like this series might only be 48 or so episodes long like the Urusei Yatsura remake so they might need to speedrun the manga by cherrypicking what to adapt (on top of heavily censoring the last arc) if they wanna get to to the end within those episodes
Mappa? more like Brappa
12 episodes a year for this is crazy. It's not even that well animated, and it's not like Ranma has much in terms of crazy direction to worry about.
>>282218988Fpbp
>>282218877How does this compare to the UY remake they did? That one felt like it lost some of the bite of the original version, which might have been down to a short leash on Rumiko's part as opposed to the OG's creative anarchy. I predicted they would get around to Ranma 1/2 as soon as Urusei Yatsura was announced, and now I assume Inuyasha is inevitable at some point.
>>282218877>Mousse's VA is being recastedIsn't he the only one coming back?
>>282219306They censored the nudity, added 2 anime original characters (a reporter and a cameraman) that explain all of the Ranma's fights, censored the word China, changed Ranma's dream so his female version won't be naked on it, Ranma doesn't seem to care about his curse all that much, added lots of dumb filters like the UY remake and so on
>>282219306It's good as long as nipples aren't the only thing you care about.
>>282219388>censored the word ChinaI though you weebs would be ecstatic about that.
>>282219388>censored the word ChinaWeirdest one yet, they also censored Ranma's commie outfit
>>282219462Nah, the art is a massive downgrade overall
>>282219388Censored nudity is a shame, if not a terribly surprising one. Sounds a little dumb.>>282219395Thankfully not. How is the animation? I think I saw clips of the OP or a trailer at one point and it looked pretty choice.>>282219520Lack of China is one thing but the commie outfit going bye hurts the heart a little.
>>282219388>>282219520You're right, they censored it
>>282218877wtf they're skipping tea ceremony? I liked that arc
Female Ranma sexo
>>282218877I don't understand how you still come and try to make me care by reminding me; I don't like how it looks and even if it's called successful I'm not watching it>>282219306It's modern anime; ofc it compares poorly
>>282219730Based
>>282219395That anon said he didn't like how toned down the Urusei Yatsura remake was so he probably won't like this one either
Female Ranma >> Akane > Shampoo >>>>>> Ukyo
>>282219388>Ranma doesn't seem to care about his curse all that muchwhat>added lots of dumb filters like the UY remakethat was the og, the remake only went hard on fillers in the ice skating fight
>>282220763FemRanma > Ukyo >Nabiki > Long haired Akane >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Shampoo > Regular Akane
>>282219395Even if you stripped the nipples out of the OG, its S1 art quality would still be far superior (this from someone who prefers the remake designs).
>>282220791>the remake only went hard on fillers in the ice skating fightRemember when f/a/gs were cocksucking the remake for le adapting source material without filler? Yeah... that aged poorly
>>282218988Based
>>282219663Souless >>282219687Most anons seem to hate those chapters, but I didn't mind them
>>282221404>mfw hating gourmet arc on the anime but fucking loving it in the manga
>>282220763Agreed
>>282219388>changed Ranma's dream so his female version won't be naked on itOG anime did that too, though I think it was the rape panic and not the nudity in both cases.
>>282219663Genuine question, would the CCP approve of this or not?
>>282218988Crappa
>>282219388>Ranma doesn't seem to care about his curse all that muchDoes this count as woke censorship for “modern audiences?”
>>282218877>they're skipping some chapters like the Tea Ceremony one How do you know this?
>>282218877
>>282223843Could Ranma be considered the main girl of Ranma too?
what did Ryoga mean by this
>>282224770>They got rid of his suggestive expression from the originalWhat a fucking downgrade
>>282224894Ryoga is too baka to know that he was being suggestive
>>282224934Which expression is closer to the manga?
>>282224770
>>282223843>Rum
>>282219730My wife
>>282224934The old one looks so much better is kinda sad
>>282227049She cute
>>282219730
>>282219730All anime girls should walk around naked
>>282221857OG anime had the nudity, the "rape" sequence with the flower was used in the old anime but during the adaptation of the chapter where that magic sword granted Kuno's wishes
>>282220035You're dumb.
>>282227063Old good new bad xD The remake looks great.
>>282228193Nope
>>282228270
Shampoo is actually listenable in the remake dub, so remake is better
>>282229446>dubWho the fuck cares?!
>>282219388
Ukyo /ss/
>>282229551Because she actually speaks proper Chinese in it instead of broken moonrunes gaijins can't tell the difference from
>>2822296331989 anime fem Ranma is the hottest
>>282223317The trailer and the VAs reveal
>>282229446>dub
>>282227736Yeh
>>282218877>Mousse's VA is being recastedNo, he's the only one who's returning.
>>282228181Anon isn't wrong here.
Will there be female-locked Ranma episodes?
>>282218877>>282231467Yeah, here's the announced VAs:Mousse: Toshihiko SekiUkyo: Kaori NazukaHapposai: Kazuhiko InoueCologne: Ako MayamaGosunkugi: Akira Ishida
>>282218877Tired of all these remakes
>>282230133
>>282218877Tsubasa better be in the season. It's part of Ukyo's story and we need the femboy exposure.
>>282225359The remake. But the original anime one is still better.
>>282231920Considering how much they have to cover, it seems the season will conclude with Ukyo's introduction, so Tsubasa would eventually be in S3.
>>282231647ai slop
>>282232725A possibility I've considered but really hope it doesn't.Mousse/Cologne=3-5 epsHapposai=2-3 epsUkyo=3-4i hope its like this. Or maybe the mousse thing wraps up in 3. I just want more eps for Ukyo.But seriously, Ranma needs to train a new gen of femboy enthusiasts. Astolfo cant do it all himself.
>>282233101It's not like that, since we see footage from the Delivery girl race, the Romeo and Juliet arc and the Bakusai Tenketsu arc in the trailer. There's a shit ton of ground they have to cover.
>>282218877>IMO at this point it feels like this series might only be 48 or so episodes long like the Urusei Yatsura remake so they might need to speedrun the manga by cherrypicking what to adapt (on top of heavily censoring the last arc) if they wanna get to to the end within those episodesThe anime is adapting 4 volumes per cour. This next cour is clearly merging a few things, but based on trailers it will barely be outside that four volume limit, and it's mostly to construct a more focused narrative (Shampoo & Moose being the 'main characters' of the season). I doubt it'll be 48 episodes based on an unrelated project operating with a completely different modus operandi. I imagine it will just be a several year long project wherein one cour is produced a year.>inb4 "that's too long!" MAPPA are the same company that dragged out "The Final Season" of Attack on Titan for five years. Netflix is bankrolling production and likely views Ranma as a longterm investment.
>>282233976>The anime is adapting 4 volumes per cour. What are you talking about, the trailer shows stuff from vol 5 all the way to vol 10.
In the manga the upcoming arcs are:37-41: Neko-ken42-50: Phoenix Pill51-55: Bakusai Tenketsu56-58: Tea ceremony59-62: Delivery girl race63-69: Happosai70-73: Instant Nanniquan74-77: Romeo and Juliet78-80: Japanese Nanniquan81-84: Kodachi's cookies85-87: Ukyo88-91: Ryoga and Akane's date92-94: Magic bracelet95-99: Duck MousseWe know it's covering at least this chunk of material in some way, presumably skipping some of the less "important" arcs.
>>282218877I thought the major defense point for this was that it would be a more faithful adaptation or cover things the old didn't, without that it's just a watered down modernized version which feels pretty pointless
>>282234026Seems it is, guess I didn't really notice.But again, the arcs being skipped are all fairly obvious in their reasoning for being skipped and the anime is maintaining a very rigid beat by beat adaptation process beyond what is skipped.To repost my own analysis of the trailer for a while back:>For clarification, the first season adapted everything in volumes 1-4 to an obsessive degree. Logically, the content that would be adapted in an S2 would be the arcs from 5-8, which are:>Neko-ken (C.37-40)>Cat's Tongue (C.41-50)>Breaking Point (C.51-55)>Tea Ceremony (C.56-58)>Miss Martial Arts Takeout Race (C.59-62)>Happosai Awakens (various episodic things like the bath-house or panty stealing) (C.63-69)>Dojo Destroyer (C.70-73)>Romeo and Juliet (C.74-77)>The Hidden Spring (C.78-80)>In the trailer, we see:>Neko-ken (C.37-40)>Cat's Tongue (C.41-50)>Miss Martial Arts Takeout Race (C.59-62)>Happosai Awakens (C.63-69)>Dojo Destroyer (C.70-73)>Romeo and Juliet (C.74-77)>"Okonomiyaki" Means "I Love You" (C.85-91)>Mousse Returns (C.95-99)The arcs being skipped are:>Breaking Point (C.51-55)Which just might have been excluded from the trailer or moved to after the Shampoo/Moose content.>Tea Ceremony (C.56-58)Obvious skip.>The Hidden Spring (C.78-80)Another obvious skip. Skipping this could possibly mean a greater skipping of the more episodic Happosai content in his greater arc as well.
>>282232725>>282233101>>282231920>TsubasaThey’re gonna censor him into a tranny aren’t they?
>>282234320They'll probably just skip him for being too much of a hot button issue.
>>282218877For me is Ukyo
>>282234464Now this is some excellent taste.
>>282218877i dropped it after 2 episodesno nipples no watch
I'm going to watch it alongside the original and compare them to see how much they fuck up.
>>282234320I dont see why.He still likes girls and just dresses like a girl. He's not even technically a trap since he's not trapping guys.
>>282236302The majority of trannies are "lesbians".
I hope it produces even more porn.
