I'm currently downloading a 32 GB torrent containing all 7 seasons, 2 movies and 12 OAVs (whatever they are) of Ranma ½. It's 6 percent completed at the moment. I just wanted to ask if it's worth it. Is it? I never watched any Ranma ½ before, but I have around 110 episodes of Inuyasha, which I like a lot. So, will I like it or not?

If I had the hard drive, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

I own 4 of the seasons, two of the movies, and sparse eps. from seasons 6 and 7. Yes, it's worth it, but at the same time I would also try finding the 38 volumes of the manga in scans. The animé alone just does not cover it all, which is a lot like how Inuyasha went.

161 eps in Ranma. You'll be busy for a good week I think.

I loved Ranma 1/2 when I watched it, but after the 5th season or so, it got a little bit old, and I got to where I didn't feel like finishing it.

7.2% done, 8 days remaining... It's only running at 60 kb/s... Hope it gets a little faster. I have 2 megabit so... But I can't let it run in the night... My parents won't let me. They say they can hear the noise "all the way down through the floor and up in their bed and through the pillow". I doubt that though...

[counters with Shishi Houkou Dan in Season 7]

Though I will say that it did start tapering off in the animé at least towards the end. It just felt like they were running out ideas.

Personally, they would've done themselves better having the Saffron/Herb sagas in the animé somewhere. But no...can't see Ranma killing someone in an animé...or his Hiryuu Kourin Dan for that matter.

The Shishi Hokou Dan episodes were nice, but many of the others, I had trouble keeping an interest to them.

I think I have parts of the last season, season six and I have two movies on hold for me at work. Once I get the chance and the momey again, I'm going to rent it at my local anime/comic store.

Yea, so it is worth it. Good luck with your d/l.

I´ll download the 2nd season soon. I just hope it has many seeders.

And I already have the manga. All 38 volumes but I´ve only read like, 10 or something.

I´m thinking of buying both movies, though.

Actually, and I hate how everyone says there's not, there's three movies. It's just for the sake of the third one being short it was included in the OAV set.

How short is that one, then?

The shortest you could buy was 1 hour.

I've seen the first two movies, but I can only remember the one in which Akane is kidnapped. It was amusing at least.

The movie you're thinking of is Ranma 1/2: Nihao My Concubine, I think, I haven't seen it. Heard it was mostly Fan-Service.

Ah, well, it wasn't that bad, and I don't recall any real fan service if by that you mean panty shots...

Didn't even stop to think about that since MOST OF THE SERIES is fan-service.

I haven't even watched any of the anime but I read a few of the mangas. I should read more but I forgot what happened but I'll probably find the anime one of these days once I finish the ones Im watching. I'll add it to the list.

I'd leave the computer on at night anyway
