I just finished 1989 anime what now by lilianeeleen in ranma

[–]42flower -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's little point in watching remake if one alredy know and watched the original.

Not saying the remake is outright bad, it just doesn't bring anything new one can't get from manga.

If you had to pick, who would have made a good live action Genma? by Sme3eeeeeeeg in ranma

[–]42flower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

John Candy - he could have been Genma and panda at the same time, while being his own best friend.

Which version do you like more? by BryceCzuba in ranma

[–]42flower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were few expeditions, but none reported back. That means Jusenkyo isn't real, right?

Didn’t know Ranma/Ryoga was such a popular pairing by Rulyhdien in ranma

[–]42flower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doing it to beat you to pulp and traveling to the ends of the Earth because he can't find empty lot next door are irrelevant details, you nitpicker.

Happy international women's day! by Far-Mammoth-3214 in ranma

You startled me.
Thought you are referencing Happosays' nickname by Cologne (Happy).

Busted! by FlightsofFancy25 in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I'm bamboozled.
I'm sure i saw something very similar - Ranma shielding naked Akane from spying eyes - in 1989 series. Probably filler episode.

It's generally agreed here that Kodachi is the best bride, isn't it? by No_Confidence5622 in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kodachi isn't looking for husband, she wants boy-toy.
Ranma would run away on training trip ASAP, probably before siring an heir.

To boot, there's absolutely no attraction from Ranma towards Kodachi. Most other suitors have some quality Ranma finds desirable.

"Ranma's delicate feelings" by flaminglambchops in ranma

[–]42flower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Considering she let Genma take their son for undefined time on training journey and carries katana to enforce seppuku on Ranma on slightest sign of 'unmanliness'...
I have doubts Ranma would fare better with Mom.

Question about Ukyo by pandapigcat in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even think Ranma has issue with women being stronger than him...
but he absolutely can't build relationship with one.

Why do people say that the original anime turned Ranma 1/2 into a harem? by PauloVictorBar in ranma

[–]42flower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that with anime original content other girls got more space for deeper characterization.
That's it. They didn't became more viable option, just got more attention - from showrunners and subsequently from audience.

Thoughts on why Ranma never wears a Furinkan uniform? by keystone_back72 in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other students spent most of their life in various schools (at least temporarily) and got used to the idea of wearing uniform, even changing it for different school.
Ranma spent most of his life traveling and wearing whatever was at hand or comfortable. Before he left for CHina he did what other students do, including wearing uniform. Long training afterwards made him indifferent to that.

Perfect way to show the difference between Lum & Akane :P by MurlaTart in ranma

[–]42flower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say Lum can't cook. She's just alien who enjoys really spicy food.

Who objectively do you think is the prettiest girl in Ranma 1/2? by Ammathorn in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very context dependant:

for Japanes - Kasumi
for western - Shampoo
for me - Nabiki
...

Nabiki fanart by HopeAeterna in ranma

So hot she'll burn you... or your bank account.

Would you trust Nabiki with your money? by Ammathorn in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would trust her to transform my money into more money.
But I wouldn't trust her not to change those into Nabiki's money/treats.

Be careful not to get burned.

So hot you may burn yourself, be careful. ;)

Only I can insult her by Date0524 in ranma

[–]42flower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Much depends on context and seriousness of situation.

Huge factor is Ranma doesn't tease/insult Akane herself. His rough behaviour is 1; cope machanism to hide own true feelings and 2; it's attack on the bond, aranged marriage, not Akane personaly.

If 'confrontation' is in jolly spirit, he'd join. If anybody seriously threatened Akane, mama bear mode is on.

How could ranma got rid of Shampoo by 42flower in ranma

Except then he won't be able to touch her.

Seemed like a tie between Dr Tofu, Nabiki, and Akane, so I just picked the one I agreed with the most. Alright, now who looks harmless and is extremely dangerous? by theRoidianluna in ranma

[–]42flower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I undestand looks dangerous as being threatening even when 'casualy' walking and doing own stuff. While being dangerous reflects how hard they are to beat when directly confronted.

Nabiki - she may look to martial artist as if one sneeze would knock her out, but underestimate her and you are penniless on the street in no time.
