>>284471975I'm not the usual guy, just posting stuff I find interesting. Hoshikuzu(Stardust) Paradise:https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%98%9F%E3%81%8F%E3%81%9A%E3%83%91%E3%83%A9%E3%83%80%E3%82%A4%E3%82%B9
To be continued.
>>284472016Remake expanded this scene, though it mainly focused on Kasumi's face to save budget for action later. Also, Akane lost 9 times in a row, yet the "grand prize" (according to the subtitles) was a stuffed pig. Usually, top prize is something like a hot springs vacation, or fancy cookware.
>>284471975Hoshikuzu Paradise by Aki Katsu, not scanlated>>284472300Rough by Mitsuru Adachi, fully scanlated (this cover is commemorating the final chapter)>>284472609Obi wo Gyutto ne! by Katsutoshi Kawai, not scanlated
>>284472147That inverted pyramid gave me vertigo from all the sameface and "AHAHAHAHA".>>284472073>>284472096>>284472128>>284472171The running gag of calling the pig Akane never gets old.>>284472400>>284472419It actually makes no sense why Mousse would be scared of the water. It's not like he can get double-ducked, and he's proven he's nearly as lethal in duck mode as human.
I liked the added scene of Akane asking Ranma to get the pig back for her.
>>284472910>"grand prize" (according to the subtitles)The anime guy says "lucky-shou", which is a slightly vague term, but usually does mean grand prize in a game like this where every prize is won through pure luck.It's a bizarre change from the manga, the Viz translation here is accurate to what it says in the original.
>>284472300>>284472934Rough is a fucking great manga and absolutely worth a read:https://mangadex.org/title/7cdc3e9a-e948-4bd6-9b57-e7fc4e92df63/rough
>>284472872>>284472893It's been a while, so I can't remember the explanation for why this water was plain(possibly Mousse had them switch to plain water too avoid wasting more duck water with the hose).
>>284473170He only had a single bucket left and didn't want to waste it
>>284472037This part made me laugh, since Kasumi's VA did a great job with it.
>>284473281The problem of course being that the tiger got turned into a duck, so he must have switched water feeding the hose at some point off-panel.
>>284473025He just got dressed.
>>284472627This cover and chapter title always made me laugh, especially given how the previous chapter ended and how this one starts.
>>284473565Wet clothes aren't nice, but he reacted more like he wasn't already cursed and didn't want to be.
>>284473550>>284473281Oh, right. I headcanoned that first thing and forgot about that second. Well, whatever. Dumber stuff happens in the manga.
>>284473512She always does a great job. Legendary VA.
>>284472934We need more scanlations for this stuff.
>>284472719I liked the mob reaction being added where they didn't turn into ducks, but I do think we lost some mob reactions, like when Ranma stole the pinwheels.
>>284475539I think most Adachi is scanlated at least.
>>284472893Why didn't the anime include this bit?
>>284476928Next episode
>>284476928It's really weird, it's a better cliffhanger than what they went with
>>284478460Yeah, this is the first time an episode doesn't end at a chapter break I think.
>>284472320>local translation of the manga was translated from Viz and just translated this title literally despite it no longer making sense when that kills the punDisgusting
>>284472564The anime adaptation omits Akane being called cute.In the delivery girl storyline, they added Shampoo being photographed by paparazzi and called cute, which doesn't happen in the manga.
>>284471975That art style is very shoujo by late Heisei/Reiwa standards, was it typical shounen back then?
>>284481049Not overly. But the series itself looks somewhat less shojo-y.
>>284481686Lock your door, retard girl.
>>284481686>that pose>that expressionShe knows what she's doing
>>284481686Ahh yes, stepsister.
>>284480546The anime writers know who the cute girls is.
>>284481686Slap incoming?
>>284481686Ranma never actually did gags like this, did it?
>>284486996Ranma does intrude on Akane changing a few times, but in very silly ways. Like while he's chasing P-chan or while trying to hide from his mom.
>>284486996>>284487150Very first chapter, Akane stumbles on Ranma emerging from the furo.
>>284472609This art looks really cute.
>>284488397Her seething is better than the old-fashioned "kyaa! pervert!" reaction though
>>284472016What's this game called?
