The first arc is kinda mediocre, it's all uphill from here.

Ukyo best girl btw
>>
>>282728331
Kino. I'm about 70 episodes in and I must say Ukyo is overall best girl and wife material. In regards to sexo, probably a tie between girl Ranma and Shampoo (them teaming up in matching leotards was something I didn't realize I needed).

The best, recent episodes for me have been the one where the ghost cat bell haunts the Dojo, the one where Ryoga becomes overpowered unless he can be defeated by a stronger opponent, and the one where Genma pretends to be a "sickly" boy's pet panda (I laughed my ass off when Ranma beats the shit out of him).

Season 4 onwards the show turns into nippon Looney Tunes, but starts to lean heavily into the harem genre. Rumiko's best work for me will always be Maison Ikkoku, for its subtlety and slow burn romance, despite the comedy being almost entirely misunderstandings.

This is where the show started doing a lot of anime original stories, which is largely the reason for the "shift".

They're stylized here. Just like in Urusei Yatsura. They get detailed later. Just three girls show, though: Ranma, Akane and Shampoo. Lots of Ranma. Two from Akane and two from Shampoo IIRC.

Remembered making this trimmed clip.
This was in Season 5 Episode 14 (Episode 104) at 18:04.

Apparently at 16 and still growing, Ranma is huge.

/a/ only hates Akane because she’s the only actual realistic female character in the cast and /a/ is a bunch of incels who hate women that don’t live up to their idealized Waifu expectations.

Almost all of his episodes are great, don't get the hate, I mean, he's supposed to be a hateable character so hating on him is not a rarity but I mean hating the whole thing as a whole for him.

No it isn’t, it butchered the manga and didn’t even finish it. You only think it’s better because “muh nipples!”

How come it’s always okay in anime for the female characters to be violent tsundere who beat men up but you rarely if ever see the opposite?

Hell why are male tsunderes so rare in general?

>>282751970
You’re probably talking about filler that is very loosely based on/expansions of canon stuff or have the actual characters interacting in new ways. All the episodes where some random new character is introduced with some boring “martial art” attached who subsequently is never seen afterwards are unwatchable garbage.
>>
>>282750832
Doesn't have the same charm, especially the music being worse. Also don't like how Ranma looks with her pink her. It made her lose her sexy look of the original. They went for a cuter look that doesn't do it for me.

Just skip those episodes then. Ranma is fairly episodic.
>>
>>282751970
There is some filler I like. Most season 3 is filler is pretty good (like the Ryoga/Mousse team up or the obstacle course story that would end up similar to something Rumiko herself would do later on), but even there you get Happosai getting used much more often than he ever was in the manga, including two different episodes with fake out deaths for him.

>>282752060
They quickly become repetitive, since his gags are always the same, especially in the anime original stuff.

Why the fuck are people using "no filler" as a reason the remake is better when it's still adapting stuff from the era before the original anime started doing much filler anyway?

>>282755287
Because there aren't any filler episodes, so it will catch up and pass the old series fairly quickly. At least if Mappa can start making more than 12 episodes a year.
This season will deliver at least two stories the old series seriously fucked up.

Yes, and that's a good thing. But it's also skipping some seriously really good canon stories, like the Kodachi cookie arc.

I've been reading through Ranma as my first raw manga, some of these arcs are truly boring and repetitive as you say.
I still love the series as a whole, but I'll be honest and say that I find most of the battle/martial arts arcs not very engaging.

I've always felt like Rumiko's best talent is in drama and character writing like in Maison Ikkoku.
I didn't even like the action parts of Inuyasha that much and dropped it not too far into the series.

And female Ranma is naked on every season, 2 of the movies (Nihao My concubine and Ranma vs. the Legendary Phoenix which was later included with the OVAs in home media releases due to being shorter), the 1993-1997 OVAs and the 2008 OVA which is all that matters since female Ranma is the HOTTEST an the other girls just don't compare, not even close

It's not only in anime, it's in cartoons and sitcoms, probably it stems from "Haha, he's such a wimp that even a girl can punch him" type of humor.

In Ranma, half the joke is that Akane being a violent bitch is unattractive and just proves Ranma's point that she's uncute.

Strange to think Ranma is the first harem series produced by Japanese media. Tenchi Muyo and later Love Hina popularized the modern formula, but I don't know there's any anime or manga before Ranma with distinct harem elements.
