Looks like this one was about 3 episodes in the OG, I had a feeling as I was watching this that some of these moments didn’t happen all in the same episode lol, but I’m ngl you can’t really tell, people that are just now experiencing Ranma 1/2 through the remake won’t know the difference and to me it felt very smooth, not rushed at all, so maybe it ain’t a bad thing they’re adapting more chapters per episode, although I do miss a lot of what I’m guessing were anime original bits and jokes in the OG, like when stuff was being dropped out of one of the windows and one of those things was a fucking bath tub lol.

And it was in this episode you start to see the true colors of some characters, Nabiki isn’t just a cute sister of Akane, she’s out here making that dosh and will stoop to tactics like secret photos lol, one of the reasons I love Nabiki so much for sure. You also get to see the other side of Tofu Sensei, he may be a good doctor most of the time, but the moment his crush Kasumi comes around, bro goes completely stupid and breaks Ranma’s neck lol, I’m glad that joke is still there. And lastly, you also see the beginning of Akane falling for Ranma, I really love the scene where they’re walking home and when Ranma says Akane’s cute when she smiles, of course Ranma fucks the moment right after that but this is just the start of the two of them growing closer, and let me tell you this isn’t the end of Ranma ruining romantic moments lol.

They're finally starting to like each other. That's cute
@Foxtsune Im sure they will fall back to their usual antics of hating each other like at Urusei Yatsura. Though I will say I like the main male character more cause he is not portrayed as some cheating bum, just that he is immature.

Another great episode! Akane's unrequited love for the doc is an essential part of the story and I feel like it was handled well here. I do feel like the first adaptation had more emotional weight, just because the music was so much more expressive and melancholic, but they still did a good job.

The humor was on point!

I love this show. But honestly, I wanted those Uncensored scenes. Not that I enjoy Ecchi. And I hate Ecchi when it's dragged/oversexualized for no reason.
But I do like it in case of Ranma½ OG. Because it feels natural, Ecchi is In the story, Not like other shows where Story revolves around Ecchi.And doesn't feel dragged out.
The animation, VA, Songs everything is Better than the OG, as a Remake supposed to be. But, it cuts the uncensored part, which is kinda fell-off to me. Cuz it feels like something is missing.

Still, I like this remake. Probably gonna continue the OG again,maybe I'll stop watching this but it's for my own personal Preference. Ths Remake is Really going Good.

A Solid 8.5/10.

@Technopunk true but they're slowly getting closer to each other. This is just 1 step of many

Ranma again compared his body to Akane by saying he is more sexy, dude deserves every smack he gets. Also good to see Kunou also getting what he deserves, double kick together.

Idk why some people hate Akane she is very cute. This episode solidifies it. Sad to see her struggle with her crush having crush on her own sister. Although that is used for wholesome moments between Ranma & Akane at the end.

Great episode. So far so very good,very impressed with this. I hope this keeps some consistent progress.

As someone who watched the original a long time ago on open TV... I still got chills with that Ranma's phrase that became a big classic: "you're cute when you smile". Also, Nabiki selling the photos to Kuno xD. Nabiki rules.

not gonna lie, for a moment i was thinking "Green Turtle" was already having a debut in the cold opening scene, but no, it was his owner in a dream sequence i forgot.

"Forget her, you'll never see her again" LOL. It was a headscratching moment when Akane had girl Ranma by her breast and so many guys watching in person with no aftermath, but whatever. Ranma deserves to be beaten for those mean-spirited comparisons, Akane isn't cute only when smiling, but also while training with a gi on and especially now with long hair. So her pictures were still better. Too bad Kuno's dilemma, if it won't be shown again, wasn't as powerful as in the original. If i remember, Genma in 1989 version actually presented himself talking in panda version, it was weird and never happened again... but not this time, apparently.

While certainly the story can be trimmed up compressing 3 whole episodes into one is a bit much. We lose all sense that the character have any sort of lives beyond school and miss significant character development moments. We lose Akane beginning to open up to Ranma and him starting to get a little understanding of her and actually starting mature some. Not to mention we lose the reason for why she hates being called a tomboy so much, why she hates the boys at school, and what she sees in Dr. Tofu.

These episodes are just flying through material without any real time to develop characters or show any growth. We're just thrown rapid fire scene after scene after scene without allow time to think or process what is happening or why. Again there are definitely things that can be trimmed to tighten up the story but what they're consistently taking out is nearly every form of character development in favor of rapid fire don't think too much about it scenes. That seems to be the more modern method of storytelling but it never leaves behind anything memorable or lasting.

My favorite episode so far! Akane shows her sweet and kind-hearted side by respecting the feelings of the people she loves, putting them above her own.
Akane and Ranma's relationship is starting to develop nicely.

Tatewaki really have no sense by saying he wanted to two-times them lol. Akane second sis also unexpected with her character by selling her own little sister private photo. All about money for real. But glad that Ranma 1/2 giving dude a check reality in the end.

Aside of that, drama thickens with Tofu sensei revealed to have a feel with Akane older sister? Alright then, all of them already get their own pair this soon, so when our Ranma and Akane can stop all the gimmick and dating already?

Soon is actually an understatement for this kind of show....

Not a bad episode, but an episode that makes this entire series feel like filler, somewhat.
