I hope this gets good/excellent ratings so we can hope for a reboot of the Ranma anime.

That looks like a bad 80s Jackie Chan movie. Rolling Eyes

Good one! XDDD

This looks so good!!! So excited. But she cut her hair? Doesn't her hair get cut when Ryoga's scarf cuts it off? Or is this a continuation of the manga?

It was Ryouga's razor bandana.

But we still don't know the answer to the ultimate question: who is stronger - Ranma or Ryouga? Laughing

They have fought conclusive matches in the manga on a few occasions, with Ryouga losing (though there were some exceptions where Ryouga won, like when he had the smiley face painted on his stomach). I'd estimate that Ryouga is stronger physically, but Ranma is stronger in the sense of strategy, speed and technique, which is pretty par course in this kind of shonen rivalry dynamic.

I always thought the ultimate question was whether or not Ranma and Akane would get together... spoiler[Which was never really answered in the series! Mad ]

Oh, you should had seen the millions of posts debating this years ago! It always happened whenever Ranma comes up in conversation. Laughing

Oh that, we already knew that wouldn't be answered a long time ago and chose to forget about it. Laughing

Yeah, it dawned on me as I read through the final volume, though I was really hoping for a more definite closure like in Maison Ikkoku. But who knows, maybe Ms. Takahashi just left the door open to revisit the series someday... I'd look forward to that! Very Happy

I'm okay w/ the costuming because it looks like they're going for the camp; which is the only way this works with live-actors.
