I have a lot of strange feelings in regards to this character. It's odd, I don't watch the show a whole lot, but I hold it really close; I'd consider it one of the most influential pieces of media I watched when I was younger.
For one thing, Ranma spring boarded the creation of Saturn, one of my first truly original characters. It's funny, Saturn even started out as a variant of the curse in Ranma 1/2; My really old avatar would turn into her when he was splashed with cold water. I even did a small animation of it like 6 years ago. Goes to show how long those TF elements have been around in my mind.
I think that show was a bigger influence on me than I thought, been thinking that especially this year, since the remake came out. There was one episode of the old show that really stuck out to me, even when I was younger; that one episode where Ranma hits their head and acts more feminine. When I watch it, I feel so strange, like the show sees me and understands me more than any other show I've seen. Despite my strange feelings, I'm really grateful to have a small piece of media that felt like it understood.
Now I'm just glad to have people that understand too, especially my partner, I can't thank them enough for their support. I don't know if it's weird to say, but I do want to thank this show for being there for me in those moments of darkness and solitude in my past. I hope the remake keeps doing well, I wanna see them make it all the way through. It's been wonderful seeing these characters in beautiful new HD animation. Anyways, sry for another really long post, I just have a lot to say about this show. Hope you guys like!
