Ah, that Gender-Bending and Bestiality...

by madamecp , Feb 06 '01
Pros: Ridiculously funny, loveable jerky characters, good repeat value.
Cons: Hideously addictive soap opera, coming up with the entire run is a stressful chore.
I was recently considering reviewing one of the Ranma movie DVDs, and figured I might comment that there's lots of gender-bending and bestiality to be entertained by... but then I realized that wouldn't be a worthy distinction considering it applies to...

by icom158 , Feb 03 '00

Ranma 1/2 Boxed Set

by grouched , Dec 25 '99
Pros: Hilarious gender crossing antics, a disgruntled panda, an overwhelmingly teed-off pig.
Cons: The laws of physics shall not be heeded.
So you think you have problems? Well, what if every time you got doused with cold H20, you turned into a girl? If you're a girl, I suppose that's not a problem. Well, what if every time you got splashed with hot water you turned into a dude?...

A Half Hour of Fun

by PBrady , May 17 '00
Pros: Only one Half Hour, and a lot of episodes

Famous last words by Akane Tendo, sore from loosing to girl type Ranma. A year or so ago I would've never even thought about watching an Anime like Ranma, but with the coaxing of a friend I finally managed to get my hands on a copy of it. I was...
