Ranma ½ is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Rumiko Takahashi with an anime adaptation. The story revolves around a 16-year old boy named Ranma Saotome who was trained from early childhood in martial arts. As a result of an accident during a training journey, he is cursed to become a girl when splashed with cold water, but hot water will change him back into a boy.
The only bad thing about this series, is the end. It just stops... That, my friends, is a true crime against humanity.
Having sat through all the series on DVD, 3 times, I can still say, I love it!
"It's so fluffy, I could die!" ( quote from Despicable Me btw)
There are some silliness, Martial Arts Delivery Service.. LOL but generally, you love the good guys (and gals), those characters you are meant to hate, you hate. The annoying ones really get on your nerves and you really feel sorry for Ryoga.
Shampoo is sexy on legs, Akane is sooooooooooooo cute and Ranma... hell he is cute as a boy, but hot as hell as a girl.
Other characters float in and out of the numerous "how is Ranma got get into a battle this time" plot lines, some you want to see more of, other's you wonder what its all about... cross dressing boy in a post box... wtf?!?! but it's all that typical zanny Ranma 1/2 fun.
