New Ranma?
« on: December 30, 2009, 05:14:26 AM »
Recently.  I've been getting little snippets of news about a new Ranma OVA or maybe a remake of the series.

On Wikipedia there is even mention of a 13th OVA Nightmare! Incense of Spring Sleep
Akumu! Shunminkō (悪夢!春眠香)    July 30, 2008

But I have not been able to find hide nor hair of it.

Could someone please set the record straight for me as to what is happening with the series?

And or point me toward that elusive 13th OVA?

EDIT: If you read the whole ranma ova wiki entry, it lists the release date as January 2010. I'm just guessing but it's probably this: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=PCBE-63361

As much as I would love to see them do a continuation or an entirely new Ranma series... I doubt it will happen; though, I do have to say it is one of my all-time favorites.

OVA Got made for the Rumic World gallery.It had Ranma,Urusai Yatsura and Inuyasha OVAS.
As far as ive read thats all thats going to be made.I think i read there is a dvd coming out
with all of them on it.That might be whats being released.
I love Ranma but i wouldnt bet on it getting finished.
Who knows maybe this will rekindle some interest and they can make a final season or OVA
set to finish off the story arcs.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXzoBYk0X_4 Subbed preview of the new OVA. I personally hope that they do make the decision to finish ranma 1/2. It seemed like they ended the anime just as the manga started getting really good. It does seem kinda weird seeing the old-school ranma looking so modern, but I've got to say I quite like the new animation style.

I've known about the OVA since several weeks after it first aired at that Rumiko anniversary celebration. But this is the first time I've actually seen the OVA. WEIRD! And the background music didn't sound right for Ranma. Sounded more like an old martial arts movie.

I'm not a big fan of reading manga on the computer, so I'm only reading them as I buy them. I have the first six so far.

I watched Ranma 1/2 as a kid and have all the seasons and movies from BBT and now I am more eager to watch that OVA :D

Btw, does BBT have every OVA/movie/special of Ranma 1/2 that has been aired so far?

I knew nothing of the outside world. I was just a frog in a well.

They can't finish the Ranma anime because the manga never really finished either. It just stopped. There was no conclusion, just like Urusai Yatsura.
