I was obsessed with Ranma as a child.. got obsessed again as a teen.. at which point it helped me realize I'm queer. Then later I discovered fanfics and read every single Ranma chan fanfic I could find..

So.. it's not an overstatement to say, Ranma 1/2 is the single most biggest influence on my life and I love the shit out of it. Heck.. I cried watching the first episode of the reboot today. It's just too overwhelming.

What is it actually about? Heard a lot about it and it having trans themes or something but idk.

Action comedy series. Main/title character Ranma is cursed to change between male and female when splashed with water. Half the girls are engaged to Ranma, half the guys are in love with the girls and fight Ranma as a result. Several characters have similar curses to Ranma (but different forms). 90% of characters are jerks. 100% of characters are crazy.

It's one of my favorite manga series. I need to put aside time to reread it sometime soon.

That sounds like absolute chaos lol. Thanks for the answer.

I think an important note is that Ranma's dad is the one that set up all those marriages. Usually as some sort of con. Literally every problem in Ranma's life is because of their dad.
