Is this series good? I've never seen or heard of it before but it's got a good rating on mangadex (though that is absolutely never a guarantee of a series's quality)

I enjoyed the first two volumes reasonably well. Main duo's very charming, art's pretty good, the side stories at the end of each volume are fantastic.

Your main issue is that half the series isn’t on mangadex because the scanlators pulled off the site over some dumb drama and they don’t have a good alternative site.

Chapter 14 is out and our boy shares some nice moments with his eldritch girlfriend. But it looks like their moment of peace is up. It really frustrates me that this is a month series because it makes those cliffhangers really painful.

Shirayukihime manga was pretty good a while ago but is one of those series where it just feels like it's just spinning its wheels right about now. Series should have ended like 40 chapters ago.

I still read it because it's cute.

For some reason I thought Inuyasha was a shojo series but it's actually shonen w/female MC. I started the series a long time ago and I realized the romance is super lacking which is awk since it's a huge plot element. The manga-ka does stick to the tried and true formula of tsundere characters who never change after 100 chapters together.

Anyone recc'd manga where the tsundere character who does change become a better person at the end?

Honestly, I never completed the series but I do want to read the entire manga b/c it's such a old/classic manga. Akane really deserved better imho.

Near the very end they actually do speak their feelings for one another, in the last chapter they're about to get married, but then all the lovers/fiances on both sides start causing chaos at the wedding postponing it and rendering the whole thing back to the status quo or something like that.

I liked her newer series, Kyoukai no Rinne, because the dynamic between the hero and heroine was different from her previous works. But then I hit a huge hole in the translated chapters and never finished it.

Rumiko Takahashi isn't exactly original, but I still find her humor funny.

all of the completely insane rival girls were better than akane, really. poo poo, so were all of the completely insane rival boys who were after girl ranma. the manga was full of incredibly over the top characters and we are supposed to take the generic standard tsundere seriously?

Last chapter went up yesterday. It's not strictly within the thread's scope, but I feel like it deserves a post here.

I've been following this and liked it. I'm glad it kinda leaves it ambiguous on if she'll go to jail or not, since there isn't really any evidence she could use to prove herself guilty.

That said I had some difficulty taking it seriously considering the father looked like Nathan Explosion and the only other thing I've seen from the author is yuri hentai. :v:

I did a whole episode of the Retronauts podcast about Ranma 1/2 games and talked a little about how Ranma is definitely problematic at times but also hugely important to a lot of queer weebs :toot: Massively progressive but not perfect!

Queer Ranma fandom has only ever gotten more powerful, it cannot be stopped.

Re: boobs, my first direct Ranma experience, I'm fond of mentioning, was seeing volume 10 at the library (I would also read the rest there over time), and, because I was curious about it from the 1st movie being advertised on my Disney VHS tapes, taking it home and opening it to the first page, where a cat jumps into a bath tub and a topless lady came out

E2: please note despite previous comment I love Akane and all other Ranma characters, they are all my children
