Anyone else hoping that this'll get released outside Japan?

Loved the video. Too bad they didn't add Maison Ikkoku (my favourite Takahashi series)
And that's the bottom line 'cause Dumbledork said so.

I want that new Ranma video!!!! :wink:

Also, anyone remember if Ryoga and the Jusenkyo Guide had any dialogue together? I ask as they are played by the same seiyuu, just like Yamaguchi Kappei voices both Ranma and Inu-Yasha.

That video was so cool I cried in happiness! Hopefully this will inspire some good crossover fanfiction. :D I hope they release the planned special here in the US eventually, and that it is popular enough in Japan to inspire them to either finish or re-make the Ranma 1/2 anime.

I'm hoping on finish. As much as it differed from the manga, I still liked the anime.

I agree with finishing- I'll never be able to truly explain why, but even though I first got exposed to Ranma 1/2 by the manga, I've always preferred the anime canon. Hell, seeing as how they rerun it all the time in Japan, I'm surprised that no one's thought up to finally finish it off and convert those storylines that came up after the anime was closed down. But then, they voted to translate the Ryugenzawa story into an OAV rather than the Musk Dynasty story, so it figures.

Would be nice. Fan dubs and being limited to watching a video on a computer does become confining.

For the most part as long as they keep making episodes as opposed to just making one or two episodes then discontinue it I'm pleased.

If that one gets released, I'm pretty sure it'll be a hit

Sweet. And that video was pure gold. :D

Edit:
I just noticed something watching that video the second time: apparently otoko-Ranma has a a more tanned skin tone compared onna-Ranma's pale complexion now. Ranma must be estatic that tan-lines don't appear carry over when he changes. :lol:

Has anyone else noticed that Ranma does a combined Moko Takabisha/Shi Shi Hokodan?

Pure win! :D

Yeah, cept that one doesn't really make any sense in neither real or anime physics. Confidence and depression are opposite ends of the emotional spectrum, so the two energies would either nullify eachother, fail entirely, only one would work, or explode.

Then again, maybe Ranma is just that damn good. 8) Or he's bipolar.

Actually not really. Someone can feel both depression and confidence at the same time. For example if you were in a fight and you were confident that you could beat the opponent, but were feeling depressed about having to fight the person.

Ranma could be feeling both emotions quite easily actually after what Ataru did. He would feel depression, anger and negative emotions from being groped in girl from like that, but he would also confident that he'd be able to give Ataru proper payback (aka beat down) and he would be rather determined to do so. If he felt both confident and depressed at the same time combining both Shi Shi Hokodan and Moko Takabisha would be feasible.
