Is it finally time to check out Ranma 1/2. An anime that many people loved back in the day, but some might think it hasn’t aged well in the animation department, so it’s not an old anime that is easy to recommend like Yu Yu Hakusho or Cowboy Bebop.
But now, people who missed out on a classic might finally be able to enjoy it, with a new Ranma 1/2 remake airing next season, if you haven’t already watched the leaks that is.
A lot of old classics have been getting the remake treatment, and it looks like Ranma 1/2 is next on the list. Some had success, and I’ve actually enjoyed them, like the Rurouni Kenshin remake. While others seem to not do as well, or grab the newer audience like some may have expected, like Spice and Wolf (actually, maybe I’m just the only one who didn’t enjoy the remake).
Kind of mid.
So this one might be a revival of the series, or a series that should have stayed buried in its old age. Some works of fiction are good no matter what day or age it’s in, while others are held back by the time period that influenced it. We’ll see which one Ranma 1/2 falls into.
Are you excited for the Ranma 1/2 remake? Did you want Ranma 1/2 back in the day? Are you enjoying the remake of Spice and Wolf? Tell us in the comments.
