Rumiko Takahashi is one of the most influential manga authors in history, her manga being some of selling very well in japan and many of her series being part of the push for anime abroad in the early 90’s. She’s such a big deal she got an exhibit at an art museum in Japan in 2008, and with at a set of OVAs to celebrate it. The special is a crossover between Urusei Yatsura, Ranma 1/2, and InuYasha, so I’ve compiled all the anime you should watch before watching the Special. Quite the excuse to make a Rumic World Stack eh?

This stack is organized by release order and has more details in the description of the anime, the only exceptions are the titular OVAs because an InuYasha anime came out afterword but I wanted to include it with the other InuYasha anime and the Urusei Yatsura and Ranma 1/2 readaptations which I included for shits and giggles.

Recommended watch order for the Ranma ½ series, based on release order.

MAL is a bit weird about grouping, but in essence there are:
- 161 main series episodes
- 12 episodes of OVAs
- 3 movies
- 7 special episodes, mostly recaps and music videos
- An advertisement for the "It's a Rumic World" exhibition

So in total, that's about 186 episodes worth of Ranma ½ content, plus a short crossover advertisement.

In terms of manga, the original Ranma ½ manga is where all of the adapted anime content comes from. It's hard to give a chapter where the anime "leaves off" because so much was skipped/altered/added for the adaptation - it's generally regarded as best just to start from the beginning. However, if you really want to not repeat any stories, the main series' latest adaptation is chapter 229, and the OVAs' latest adaptation is chapter 365.

There's also "Eiga + OVA Ranma ½", a manga adaptation of the "Michi wo Tsugu Mono" OVAs and the "Chou Musabetsu Kessen! Ranma Team vs. Densetsu no Houou" movie released after the fact. It's made by directly using animation cells from the OVAs and movie, so you're not missing much by skipping this one. Maybe for the best, as it seems to be fairly obscure.

There was also a live-action adaptation in 2011.

They won't be included here, but aspects of Ranma ½ also make cameos in:
- The 4th Urusei Yatsura OVA, "Rage! Sherbet!"
- The 8th Urusei Yatsura OVA, "Goat and Cheese"
- The 10th Urusei Yatsura OVA, "Terror of the Girly-Eyes Measles"
- The 12th Urusei Yatsura OVA, "The Obstacle Course Swim Meet"
- Episode 21 of Urusei Yatsura (2022)
- Episode 17 of Urusei Yatsura (2022) Season 2
- Episode 90 of Inuyasha
- Episode 2 of Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi
- Episodes 2, 4, 11, and 20 of Kyoukai no Rinne
- Episode 14 of Kyoukai no Rinne 2nd Season
- Episode 14 of Kyoukai no Rinne 3rd Season
- Episode 93 of Pokemon Sun & Moon
- An Episode of Koko wa Green Wood

Animeby RobertBobert

This stack is for Nisekoi-type anime, abstractly named after a (in)famous romantic comedy where the characters are forced to accept a arranged engagement and artificial relationship in general. Such shows are usually based on a very characteristic premise, where a guy and a girl, less often other combinations, are forced to be together due to a forced engagement or a fake relationship, but subsequently fall in love with each other for real (not necessarily at the same time). Additional drama is also possible where the characters are already in love with someone else and/or are forced to maintain that relationship due to circumstances.

Some of these shows problematically idealize organized relationships (usually because of the idea of ​​easily getting interesting pairing or fantasizing about the perfect bride with no extra effort), some deconstruct or add something that reveals the character's developed genuine romantic reciprocity. Some, on the contrary, even normalize it, but fortunately such shows are in the minority and even they try to somehow justify this in the eyes of people.

Separately, I want to note that not all of these shows contain this subplot or arc in the first or already released seasons. So keep that in mind when you see shows in the stack that you've never heard of in this context. Also, this stack doesn't include anime with forced engagement that don't include the center couple in it, or are clearly shown it in a judgmental way.

This stack is intended for (relatively) old cult or nostalgic anime that have received a second wind and new relevance in our time thanks to remakes, reboots, new seasons or spin-offs. For ease of reference, I will credit new inclusions in franchises with the original source, rather than the other way around.

Rumiko Takahashi, The Manga Queen, is a Mangaka born in 1957 that in 1978 started her career in the pages of Weekly Shounen Sunday, and it's been a constant succes from then. Since there has been too much series from then people tends to don't know what to watch first, and how to watch it.
So i'm here to help you, when you finish reding this guide you'll have the entire data you need to know what to do.


My personal recommendation, start watching Maison Ikkoku, it's her best work. The best way to get to know an author is to start with their best work.

Mostly new title!

This list is purely my personal opinion. It has nothing to do with society. I added it here after reviewing the manga/light novel of many of the anime on the list, reading a few reviews and checking if they are good or not. In short, these are the anime that could be the potential banger of the season, whose original source has been praised by some people, and the anime I am most looking forward to.
