Unnecessary, barely an improvement over the old one, maybe even dis-improvement. Cash grab remake, like Hollywood does them.

With the current pacing, I don't think we are even seeing it fully animated.
12 episodes per year and only greenlighted if the number are good at netflix
NHK should have picked it up

Honestly, it's a soulless, 1:1 anime adaption. The bgm is forgettable, some of the VAs are clearly too old to pull off their characters, there is nothing interesting in terms of visual style.
Kinda what I would imagine in the future AI-created adaptions are going to look like, basically just animated manga pages with worse art.

Ranma was full of fanservice but at the same time the gag-comedy and the action bits were clearly separate while still under the umbrella of casual nudity.
It was never possible to make a satisfying remake of it in the modern day.

That's without getting into why the fuck everything is pastel filtered.

The remake lost all support it had in LatAm once the dub's director fired every single original dub VA aside from Akane's and Mousse's, the 1989 Ranma anime is so fucking popular in LatAm that this was the worst possible choice they could of taken, the ridiculous amount of censorship didn't help either

I'd say it was a massive failure here as well, when the new episodes drop on weekends the threads never reach anything past 95 or so replies, only threads shitting on the remake or comparing the censored scenes such as this one get replies, almost if anons lost all the interest for the remake, of course it is because on top of heavy censorship they only release 12 episodes per year and they're now skipping arcs so I doubt they would even reach the ending anytime soon if at all, might even be cancelled without adapting the whole thing like the Orphen remake from a few years ago

The original wasn't that popular either, its one of those shows that retroactively has fans that weren't actually there when it aired and liked it because of their brand of tomboy waifuism (just like evangelion still being "relevant" only because of asuka/rei waifuwars).
The show itself doesn't have enough material to catch the audience attention, specially now with significantly impaired attention spans that require extremely flashy effects in very quick succession.
The hair color makes her look significantly less appealing too.
Also the censorship drama made the bots obsessed with virtue signaling killed the interest in the show because its now associated with people that will call you a pedo and hecking trans representation which is now a repellent that has been making media in the last couple of years flop.

Its a combination of all these reasons, not just a single one.

Can you guess why that is?
Remember that the first season of Ranma got cancelled too, the Ranma live action movie also had bad reviews specifically complaining over two missing characters.
And remember that the Ranma live action is basically how Ranma would be if it actually focused on romance and Ranma and Akane were the center of the story, and it flopped.
The ranma manga did so good because of the side characters and the comedy, rankane fags wanna believe its for the romance when Rumiko doesn't even like to write romance and said her favorite scenes are actually Ryoga getting shy around Akane, she just likes comedy.

It was used in only 21 episodes of season 3 actually, and that doesn't change the fact that season 1 of the old anime censored the outfit entirely.

Anon is right tho, the very last season where all the girls got bigger boobs had pretty good animation

It didn't censor it as it was in the show with the red star intact unlike in the remake where it doesn't have it, it is also on screen for longer than the CENSORED version is in the remake

Blue eyes in the 1989 anime, pink/red-ish in the Demake

How is not being on the screen at all count as "being on screen longer"? You do understand it was removed entirely from Kodachi's intro, right?

weird how they did a live action for Ranma when everyone was asking for real life Lum.
Japan's highest payed cosplayer did a official collab too

That episode is still not from the Kodachi intro arc/season 1. Are you retarded or do you lack basic reading comprehension?

Nah, you're underselling just how bad 90s Orphen was.

Maybe. Either way, the remake was shit

NTA but the 90s anime had a great OST, the anime original villains were cool and it gave us pic related, the second opening alone blows anything in the remake's soundtrack out of the water, it was 90% anime original yeah, but the source material was pretty shit to begin with, not like the Slayers anime followed the novels at all either and anons here seem to like that series

I liked the evil loli, she was a shameless ripoff of Slayer's Phibrizzo, but at least she managed to kill off a recurring character unlike him

They should remake GS Mikami. Improve the leg and cleavage fanservice.

I'd say the 90s one was good enough in terms of fanservice, a remake would probably be heavily censored like the Jigoku Sensei Nube one
