Ranma 1/2 Reboot Announced, Sparks Hope for Maison Ikkoku Revival
Anime fans are freaking out over the announcement that Ranma 1/2 is getting a reboot! It’s being made by the awesome studio Mappa and will start airing in October 2024.
Ranma 1/2 was this hilarious 90s manga about a martial artist named Ranma who turns into a girl when splashed with cold water. The new version has a stellar voice cast, too. I can’t wait to see what they do with the cursed springs and crazy characters like Akane.
It’s seriously cool that they’re bringing this classic back. Rumiko Takahashi has made a ton of hits over the years, and it seems studios are going back to re-do her older stuff now. Her manga Maison Ikkoku hasn’t been adapted since the 80s, so fans are hoping this Ranma reboot means Maison Ikkoku could be next.
Maison Ikkoku is a romantic comedy about a dude named Yusaku...
