I also prefer the color red, but pink is also good. It's been a while since I read the manga, but I think it was red

the official hair color for Ranko (female Ranma) is black, just like male Ranma. Rumiko stated her hair color in multiple interviews and it is shown in the first manga volume.

The reason why the hair color is red in the original anime is because Rumiko, most of the time, painted her color red in volume covers and in magazine covers. Not because it was her real color but most likely to make a difference between Ranko and Ranma and for aesthetics.

If you see closely, in each manga volume Ranko's hair color changes (red, yellow, purple, orange, blue, green, pink)

@CirceOwO Yes, exactly, it's even a unique way to style the character

@MeherabHB There is nothing defined for now, so nobody knows how many episodes there will be in this season. All that is known is that 12 episodes of this season were leaked, that is, it may be a season of + 12 episodes, but it is just speculation for now. Nothing defined yet.

@utopia- fuck, now I'm scared to watch cuz idk how much is censored. I was rly looking forward to this cuz I thankfully haven't reached far in original one, but if it's heavily censored I might as well continue original instead which wasn't censored.

The n1 thing I hate the most in animes is when they censor it...

@Akanekino They mainly censored the nipples, I honestly don't care about censorship, but it's up to each person, but I saw that most Ranma½ fans hated the censorship. As long as it has good comedy, I'm happy with this reboot.

@utopia- I hate censorship in general, honestly I'm fine if they don't shop nipples in some other new anime, but when it's done on the reboot of anime which originally had them then I'm pissed cuz it's supposed to be ecchi anime. I don't know what is with new animes these days scared of showing this stuff when it's already a ecchi anime. Anyway I will actually watch it since I don't even remember anymore how original rly was with these nipples, I know that it had it just not sure how it looked and it's better that I don't since then I can actually enjoy new one then when I don't look for exact scene.

@Akanekino In my case, the only type of censorship I hate is when they censor bleeding/gore scenes, where they try to tone down a brutal scene in some anime. In the case of ecchi, I don't care because if I wanted to watch ecchi anime I would just look for hentai to watch instead, but in my case I don't really like ecchi and even less hentai.

Since you don't remember much about the previous version of ranma½, you might not care about this.

Red hair looks more aggressive, so it suits better to fighting girls.

yea i saw the original had like 100+ episodes ig. So it would be great to see an anime releasing 100+ episodes in present time cuz u know nowadays they only release 12 or 24 episodes so i kinda miss the old anime vibe.

@MeherabHB I honestly hope this Ranma½ reboot can make more than 100 episodes, In fact, there are great chances, it will depend on how this anime is sold on the market, we have great chances just because it is on Netflix, It is already an "advantage" compared to the rest, but it depends a lot on its success in the market as well.

The original anime's nipples were drawn but they were the same colour as the rest of the skin. My brother watched the remake and didn't notice the censorship because he totally forgot the original had nipples since they weren't that noticeable XD

@Kdekalcio I searched a bit about censorship and apparently they completely removed buttcrack, I am fine with no nipples, but censoring butt is a weird one, almost no show does that I think, it's so weird seeing it all smooth from behind like just one circle. Anyway gonna watch it today for myself.

Yeah censorship sucks for me too but I'll watch it anyways since the series has many other good qualities aside from naked women (and it wasn't really what sold me into the series). Most that I saw someone else reported from the leaks was a part with a bit of butt crack.

@Kdekalcio oh that one is actually good, butcrack is little bit visible with only towel in the day. The one I saw was where she was sitting in bathroom eith buttcrack gone, hopefully it was just that one time then. Anyway yea it also wasn't what originally sold me to series either, but it was nice seeing it I won't deny.

I'm looking forward to complete adaptation this time, mainly interested in Akane and how romance develops with her and some fights. Apparently adaptation is pretty faithful shot to shot with nice animation, just hope they do it fully unlike Urusei Yatsura which got remake and again stopped almost same as original I heard.

What happened with Urusei Yatsura was that it did adapt the manga from beginning to end, but skipping around half of the manga chapters. A lot of one's favourite arcs could be missed that way so I hope they don't do the same with this remake. People just don't wanna watch long anime anymore :(

@Kdekalcio The Urusei Yatsura remake was never supposed to be a full remake to begin with. It was just an adaptation of the most popular chapters to celebrate the anniversary of the series.

I see, thanks for the clarification. Hopefully this remake and the possible future Takahashi remakes are more than just that.

@utopia-
the thing is Ranma is an echii, it's rely heavilly on that aspect (especially Shampoo and Female Ranma because every time they transform, they are seen naked), and Hapossai is a real pervert(way way more than Roshi in Dragonball).

Half of volume 7 is just a fight between Ranma and Hapossai were happosai try to unwear Ranma because he want take picture of her just wearing a bra, the first fight between Moose and Ranma in volume 5 also have female Ranma clothes being slowly ripped by Moose attacks and she finish the fight fully naked

removing the echii from Ranma is removing 25% of the manga and due to the lenght of the adaptation (13 episodes are planned for the 4th first volume, while the first anime took 20 episode to do 4 volume), I fear many gag to be removed and the adaptation of the first volumes (40 first episodes of the original and I think the 26 first of the remake) to be better in the original (like for fruit Basket where the first season of the reboot is inferior to the 2000 serie)

I could honestly care less. I am not watching for nipples and butt cheeks. There are better sources for that kind of thing.

@Mago293742 no it is not. The hair color is red not pink. There is no reason for the change and pink hair in this era and every other since the beginning of mankind does not exist in nature and ranma's hair and form are because of the cursed springs transforming him into the person who died there hundreds of years ago.
