description Ranma ½ OVA Overview
Ranma Saotome continues his search for a way to become a normal teenage boy again. He gets into many hilarious situations involving the many girls in his life. One of the biggest challenges is overcoming the proposals from others who have found a suitable bride for Ranma. But he has his own worries and must muster up the best of his wits and martial arts to keep his sanity.
It's not easy being desired by so many women (and men) and not breaking hearts of a few along the way. He just might be able to find it in his heart to confess to Akane or simply find another excuse that he can't marry such a tomboy girl. (Source: ANN)
help Ranma ½ OVA FAQ
Do the Ranma ½ OVAs continue the original television anime?
Yes, the OVAs use the same continuity and characters as Studio Deen's 1989 to 1992 television adaptation. They adapt later manga stories and a few original plots rather than restarting Ranma and Akane's relationship.
Which manga stories appear in the Ranma ½ OVAs?
The collection includes stories involving the Reversal Jewel, the Phoenix Sword, Kasumi's would-be romance, and the two-part Musk Dynasty adventure. Several of these arcs occur later in Rumiko Takahashi's manga than most television material.
How many Ranma ½ OVA episodes are there?
Listings commonly group 12 direct-to-video and special episodes, beginning in 1993 and including the later Nightmare! Incense of Spring Sleep special. The final special was produced for a Rumiko Takahashi anniversary exhibition long after the original OVA run.
Are the Ranma ½ OVAs connected to the newer anime remake?
No, they belong to the continuity and production era of Studio Deen's original adaptation. The newer Ranma ½ series is a fresh adaptation, so its cast, chronology, and visual style should be treated separately.
