    When I saw in my phone's notifications that a Ranma 1/2 reboot had been added to my anime tracker's database I literally (and very specifically not figuratively) went

    えっ?

    えっ??

    えぇぇぇぇぇぇぇぇーーーーー?????

    I never did finish Nettôhen, though, I saw only 11 of the [checks] 143 episodes. But a reboot is nevertheless going to be a treat.

    I'm also yet to see the 2022 Urusei Yatsura reboot, though I didn't see much of the '80s anime, either, only 3 episodes of that...

      I heard the reboot is getting 48 episodes. Which is pretty good for nowadays. Can't wait to watch it and critique it, cause I don't want to sit through 143 episodes lol

        That is pretty good nowadays! Most anime these days get only a fourth of that, don't they?

          Yes, a single cour with a story that needs two or three to be any good q.q

    really anxious about this one. watched the original anime at least twice complete (and a bunch of individual episodes when they were broadcasted) and while I really liked the series I remember that there were a bunch of things that felt wrong even back then. not sure how will I react if i watch it today.

    wondering how much will they change from the original work. 48 episodes to addapt 37(?) volumes is too few but I remember there were a couple of arcs that didn't really affect the story so they could just remove them. will they change or remove some uncomfortable scenes? not sure what would be the best then
