About this show

It's not easy being teenage martial-artist Ranma Saotome, but it's even worse when your martial-artist father Genma takes you from home at an early age to go on a decade-long training mission. He doesn't speak a word of Chinese, and yet he insists upon bringing you to the cursed training ground known as Jusenkyo, where falling into one of the many springs there instantly turns you into whoever - or whatever - drowned there last. And then, the two of you have a little accident...From now on, a splash of cold water will turn your father into a giant panda, while you...well, you turn into a red-haired (and problematically well-built) female version of yourself. Hot water will reverse the effect, but only until the next time. What's a half-guy, half-girl to do?

Used to watch this and laugh every time someone got knocked into the sky and turn into a sparkle. Good story with no real direction into the third season. Its just slapstick mixed with martial arts and large doses of comedy and a little love. Worth a relaxing weekend watch session.

Ranma 1/2 is one of the zaniest and most fun anime series I've seen and I am quite pleased to see it on Google Play! There's a bit of nudity but it's not particularly explicit and done on the name of the humor of the situation than as fan service. Highly recommended if you like funny anime's. One thing though: HD version looks cleaner in HD devices but the source was never in wide screen and it's really just upscaled so not true HD.

To be honest I have never been so happy and satisfied watching an anime but when I watched Ranma 1/2 I really cant express my feelings for this anime and if there were beyond 5 star rating I would be honored to smash that rate So far the anime brought all of comedy,adventure,humor,mystery, all in one place wondering though why the fourth season was kinda not understood for me the way episodes were moving anyways this anime worths watching Really glad that it is available here in google play❤
