Classic anime reportedly getting new show for 35th anniversary VizAn iconic anime, Ranma 1\/2, is reportedly coming back soon, with a remake of Rumiko Takahashi\u2019s manga allegedly in development. Premiering in 1989, Ranma 1\/2 is a beloved anime show that merged martial arts and romance in a slightly bizarre, gender-bending concept. The titular hero is training to be a combat champion, when they suddenly develop the ability to jump between being a man and a woman if they\u2019re hit with water at certain temperatures. The manga from Rumiko ran from 1987 to 1996, while the sports anime was more short-lived, running from April 1989 to September 1992. According to anime and manga leaker Sugio Lite, another adaptation is on the way. \u201cOfficial announcement coming soon,\u201d Sugio tweeted on June 21, quoting the initial reveal on June 15. Should this come to pass, it\u2019d be right on the 35th anniversary of Ranma 1\/2\u2019s premiere, suggesting it\u2019s part of some celebrations for the franchise. Fans are waiting with bated breath. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to see it!\u201d says one. \u201cWe will be seated,\u201d adds another. Ranma 1\/2 is just one extremely popular property from Rumiko, as she penned Inuyasha and Urusei Yatsura as well, among others. Both of those have more modern adaptations, Inuyasha getting brought to the screen in the 2000s, and Urusei Yatsura being adapted twice, once in 1981, then again in 2022. As such, Ranma has stood out for some time among Rumiko\u2019s works as something that could use a modern touch. There\u2019s some speculation that Studio MAPPA is producing this new version, but no details have been revealed, beyond the adamant report it\u2019s coming. We\u2019ll keep you informed \u2013 definitely an upcoming anime we\u2019re excited about.
