This competition heated up. Even though Ranma can be a goof at times, he fought with heart in this with Akane. Definitely deserves respect for that.

Not the normal kind of competition obviously but fun to watch regardless. It bought out the competitive energy and personality from everyone. Props to the direction of this episode that made it as entertaining as it can be.

Too short. The episode felt so short. It was so funny and amazing all throughout. It was so funny and cute seeing Ranma caring about Akane and Akane being scared of Ranma's state when he was down. It was adorable. Also, the fiance declaration was awesome and sweet. Mamoru Miyano has been killing his role as usual. His imagination was so hilarious. Azusa is the funniest tho.

Aside from that, the episode felt so short. It was just getting so interesting and now another week's wait. AHHH. Looks like girl Ranma and Ryoga will have to battle this one out in the end. Akane looked so pretty in her ring outfit.

Ranma and Urusei Yatsura are perfect proofs that Rumiko does best in comedy genre, yet somehow she stop writing comedy manga completely after One-pound Gospel was not as successful as her earlier works.

This was probably the first time Ranma called Akane his fiance in front of someone and actually meant it. Good to see that the RanKane stocks are increasing.

Man, Mamoru Miyano is perfect as Mikado's voice. His delivery of "BAKA ONNA" kills me every time.

Welp, Ryoga is in for it. He should've thought twice before doing... anything really. All the Ranma 1/2 characters are stupid but he's a special kind of dumb.

Mappa is doing an excellent job of blending the action with the comedy. The delivery seems perfect. They exceeded my expectations. The only thing that I still don't like very much is the color palette. It doesn't look bad but it just looks off compared to like every other anime...

The next episode is going to be exciting for multiple reasons.

The Charlotte cup has begun! Ranma and Akane make an interesting skating pair, but the highlight is how much Ranma cares about Akane's well being. He will protect her no matter what!

Props to Ranma, he can still move after making a huge crater in the wall lol. And my boy shows up to help* (or fuck up everything). Akane is the desired pair, but ends up with Ranma. Just like in the fanfictions lol.

Ryoga is tired of the BS and just straight up destroys the ice rink. He knows that what he does with Akane is wrong and has regrets, he does not want to go back being alone.

Can't wait to see how they handle the resolution of the fight, the OG anime had an original ending, not what it actually happens in the manga.

Ranma declared Akane his fiancée in front of the crowd and refused to let go, it's a bond stronger than what Mikado and Azusa have faced before.

Ryoga wanted to pair with Akane after the blackout but ended up with his rival Ranma instead. Breaking the ice to reveal water beneath does not affect the already female Ranma but Ryoga's identity is at a huge risk.

I like how they really made Ranma and Akane a whole lot nicer to each other than compared to the original, it really shows that they do care for each other, unpopular opinion or idk: but I like that they cut a lot of ryoga x akane out here,

The Charlotte competition has started lol

Ryoga is afraid that Akane will find out that he is actually pi-chan and at the same time we have that annoying skating duo.

There were several cute moments between Ranma and Akane in this episode, from the moment when Ranma protects Akane, and also the dynamic moments when they are arguing, they are so beautiful together :3

This skating duo is very annoying, they always manage to make the most absurd and irritating lines, especially the boy.

This type of competition is getting crazier and crazier with them always switching roles in the middle of the fight. That said... It was a good episode, the animation dropped a bit but the Akane and Ranma moments were still fun and cute.

This remake still manages to be the best anime of this season💫

I'm pretty sure the original called that move the Couple Cleaver instead, which was a much better name.

And Ryoga got splashed in front of half the school and yet nobody noticed.

Interesting that they added in a scene where Ryoga is imagining what would happen if Akane found out he was the black pig, and how she would react. The manga didn't have that scene.

"I will never let go" is very appropriate name for this episode. The way Ranma proclaimed Akane as his Akane in front of everyone is very admirable. And also he threw his body in order to protect her as well. Even after all that he she kept fighting on behalf of her.
Ranma was him(her)🫡

More cute RanmaxAkane moments pls giving. Both of their dresses are great aswell.

It's shame for bs reasons Akane is taken out of fight again. Well Ryouga have to defend his pig honour now.

Awww the way ranma so forcefully asserts that Akane is his fiance and he’ll protect her no matter what is so sweet. The skating competition was as insane and over the top as you’d expect from this series. Ranma and Akane might not be a trained duo, but I love seeing them tackle challenges in their own unique way and still coming out on top. They’re always gonna be themselves!

I love how Ranma protects Akane when they’re falling and is willing to sacrifice his body for her. Dude is awful with words, but his actions show you how much he cares about her. For as skilled martial artists as they both are, they’re both still kids figuring this whole romance thing out. The way Akane looks at him when she was crying over his injury.. 😍

Mikado and his Azusa are hilarious though. Dying at mikado flirting with ranma in girl form and Azusa trying to get P chan back 😂 great episode, flew by way too quick

Oh wow, so this is actually going to three parts just like the OG, I’m very happy with that, this arc definitely deserves it. And the ice skating fight has been done very well here in the remake, the super attack from Azusa and Mikado is still as wild as ever, and I really liked the skating outfits, they’re a bit different than the OG but still look great, only downside is that Akane got kinda nerfed since she originally had her bare legs out with no tights, but tights don’t automatically make it not hot lol, some may argue it’s hotter, it’s just there aren’t as many spicy angles here to appreciate it.

And I couldn’t remember how Ryoga ended up being switched in, well he basically just forced his way into the competition lol, not against it tho because the fight got way funnier with him and fem Ranma being forced to work together, they definitely got a laugh out of me when Ryoga punched Ranma away during Azusa and Mikado’s attack lol. But now the ice skating rink has been smashed and is all water, I remember things get even crazier from here so I’m looking forward to seeing how they end this next time.

The difference in how Ranma & Akane and Ranma & Ryoga handled Mikado and Azusa's "couple crusher" attack was too funny. I wasn't expecting back-to-back ice skating episodes, but I love it.

Also only Ranma would slam into a wall and then try to fish for a thank you from Akane. (Which he didn't get lol)

At the end of the next episode. It’s been manga accurate so far so you’ll see her briefly then the series finishes off with her arc.

Although depending on pacing she could get a lil bit more screen time next episode but for sure within the next 2 episodes. Shampoo is honestly best girl next to ukyo and believe me you’ll see why.

how petty for Ranma to directly transform Ryoga into his pig form in front of some many witnesses. At least when Ryoga had his payback and transformed him into a girl, he turned all the lights off.

Mikado, Azusa... stop referring to yourselves in the third person, NOW. "We are couple breakers" you think you got your way, but babies, there's a catch. They're not actually a 100% real couple.

LOL, the fabricated flashback by Sanzenin about girl Ranma, it obviously had to include "fin" as the final word because using that language is supposedly more... poetic? But she hits him as deserved.

Ryoga, you're lucky Akane didn't make 2 and 2. And honestly, the fashion members club don't seem that good at their job, those costumes were bad.

Is it me, or same audience members really look like Lum's Stormtroopers from Urusei Yatsura? Some characters from it made cameos in the original series too after all.

What? Episode already over? To be honest i wouldn't have minded this arc to be wrapped in just two episodes, but now i don't remember how longer it was in the original run.

Crazy ice skating match!!
That Couple Crusher move is Insane lol

Ain't no way Akane didn't put ut together.
I think Akane isn't going to realize Ryoga was P-chan until the end of the series.
That's my prediction.

The battle is on and with it Hyouga keeps being a fuck up while Ranma stands up for Akane in quite the stubborn way although that's just how he is. This dickhead needs to go down as well as that insufferable child (no ill will of course). Anyways, how long will Hyouga keep from Akane that he has always been P-chan? Let's see.

Mikado and Azusa are super annoying and hilarious at the same time. I'm looking forward to them getting their asses handed to them.

I didn't like how Akane got pushed aside so Ranma can do stuff on his/her own. Well, Ryouga is there but I still think Akane should get the chance to beat up those two assholes.
