Igano Kabamaru

Hilarious comedy 

Very similar humour, romance and soundtrack, though Tokimeki Tonight's characters are more charming, and Igano Kabamaru uses ninjas instead of a supernatural plot. Still, I felt the same comfy shoujo vibe from both shows. 

Igano Kabamaru is sometimes described as Ranma ½ + Naruto with an extra dose of stupidity, and after seeing these anime I must definitely agree. Some other similarities Igano and Ranma share: -they are both a mixture of marital arts & comedy -both shows are named after the titular main character -very similar styles of humor, often slapstick, often at expense of mc -both Igano/Ranma are forced to be marital artists by their granddad/dad -both are paired up with a Tsundere girl Mai/Akane -these anime both came out in the 80s -although mostly comedic, they have an odd touching or serious few episodes If you like Ranma ½, you will probably like Igano Kabamaru. Ranma ½ is a lot longer and has more fanservice, whereas Igano Kabamaru makes more use of Japanese puns in its humor and is a bit wackier.  read more
