Genre: Romantic Comedy Anime: 161 episodes, 12 OVAs, and 3 movies Manga: 38 Volumes by Rumiko Takahashi.
Main Characters Ranma Saotome Akane Tendo Genma Saotome Soun Tendo Nabiki Tendo Kasumi Tendo Ryoga Hibiki Ukyo Shampoo Mousee Happosai Tatewaki Kuno Cologne
Introduction Meet Ranma Saotome, a 16-year old martial artist who suddenly gets engaged with one of the daughters of his father's best friend, Akane Tendo. However, Akane is not your regular girl: She's violent, short tempered, and a martial artist too. Suffice to say they aren't too thrilled with the decision being made for them, and they are always arguing. It doesn't help that Ranma is cursed, and when doused with cold water he turns into a girl, and when doused with hot water he turns back into a boy. Add a few more fiancées for Ranma, a few more competitors for Akane's heart and a lot more curses, and you've got yourself Ranma ½.
What will you see? - Great comic genius by Takahashi - Some action - Romance - Scams by Ranma's fiancées and Akane's lover wannabes trying to break Ranma and Akane up.
Should your kids watch? Violence- Mild, most of it is comedic (guys getting kicked to the moon, for instance), but has some decent fights. Nudity- Occasional, mostly due to Ranma having no sense of feminine modesty. Language- None. Sexuality- No intercourse, and not really many innuendos
