We're joined by M to discuss the ideal recognizable Ranma 1/2 character who is popular enough to popularize a trope but not popular enough to be seen as a proper main character by her own creator. Perhaps we may shed some new light onto our subject matter, and maybe revise some waifu rankings along the way.
It's time we review the Ranma 1/2 remake, with help from our new guest, Matt, from the appropriately titled Random Rhapsody Network. Covering a whole season would take some time, though, so instead we cover the same story three different times. A very thought out take on what it means to adapt a story and how the times changed the way we process media.Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/elenabunbun
In this episode we put on our work tie and have an interview with Harley and Dylan Acres, the twin brothers who spent the last 30 years running Rumic World, one of the oldest fan websites around, dedicated not just to Ranma 1/2, but Urusei Yatsura, Inuyasha, and literally everything connected to Rumiko Takahashi ever. If you've ever been curious about early Internet anime culture, or what it's like to manage one of the sites you only ever see on the list of citations at the bottom of a Wikipedia page, now's your chance to imagine another world nearly lost to time.Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/elenabunbun
