Product Description
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 on 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 this 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?System Requirements:Running Time: 600 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ANIMATION/ANIME UPC: 782009237891 Manufacturer No: DRTV6RBS

The sixth broadcast season of Ranma 1/2 includes some of the silliest entries in a continuity known for its silliness: a seaside resort is terrorized by a ceramic octopus trap, and upperclassman/school gasbag Kuno is stricken with amnesia after a watermelon gets stuck on his head. But at times, the premises feel decidedly thin. When Akane is kidnapped by a Minotaur-like monster (the adult version of a baby Happosai bathed in the most accursed spring at Jusenkyo--the one in which a Yeti riding an ox carrying a crane carrying an eel drowned), Ranma and the gang discover there are worse fates than turning into a girl--or a monster. Director Junji Nishimura spoofs Japanese monster movies in "Scribbled Panda," as a Kabuki-style spider and demon emerge from a Chinese scroll to attack a carnival. But the most horrible beast is an icky-cute little drawing who develops a crush on Ranma: it's like Hello Kitty on a rampage. Ranma's furious when a newcomer who practices Martial Arts Calligraphy won't accept a challenge because Ranma's handwriting is so atrocious. The filmmakers balance the slapstick by making kindness an element in the way Ranma, Akane, and Ryoga defeat a Snow-Woman (Yuki-onna) and a bizarre Abominable Snowman who threaten to turn Furinkan into an outdoor icebox. Telepathic boy Satori sums up the series when he visits the Tendo-Saotomi household and screams, "The people in this house are weird!" (Rated 13 and older: brief nudity, slapstick violence) --Charles Solomon

 a good series, a modern day classic September 13, 2009

As long as you don't expect plot and great story you will find yourself enjoying the Ranma 1/2 series. I find myself watching them when I just want to relax and smile. It is an easy series to sit down and watch an episode or two.
 The sixth season box set for Ranma 1/2 July 22, 2009
Lesley Aeschliman (Enumclaw, WA)
Ranma 1/2 Random Rhapsody is a DVD box set of the sixth season of Ranma 1/2. This set contains a total of twenty-four episodes. The first four discs contain five episodes, while the fifth disc contains four episodes and the special features.
There are six special features on this set: "Line Art Gallery," "Textless Opening," "Textless Ending," "Cast List," "Actor Profiles," and "Maison Ikkloku Trailer." As expected, the textless opening and ending are just the opening and ending credits without the text. The line art gallery contains eighteen pages of model sketches of the characters that appear in this DVD box set. The cast list is a list of the English and Japanese voice actors for each character. The actor profiles are selected filmographies for the English voice actors. The "Maison Ikkoku Trailer" is a trailer for the Maison Ikkoku DVD box sets that were released by Viz Media.
Ranma 1/2 Random Rhapsody is a rather "low frills" DVD set. While the special features are better than what appeared on the first Ranma 1/2 DVD box set, I wish more of an effort had been made with the special features.
While this set could be considered a little high-priced for what you get, the episodes are worth the cost. This series is very enjoyable for an older audience (16 and up), and really should be in an anime fan's DVD collection.

Ranme is kid animation well liked by teenage and Adult. It can be silly,funny;but it's warm, caring and romanic. Many people would give this Japanese TV series a "R"rating because of the nudity,in the japanese culture this is anormal show being watch by kids all over japan. PG-13 is the correct rating for this show. You will enjoy it.
