Akane? I love Ranma and Akane together. Shampoo and Ranma are cute too.

Ranma no kawaii!  Love 'em love 'em love 'em.  I disliked Ukyou for her sudden infatuation with Ranma after hating him for ten years... - -;; Somehow I don't think POP you could be in love with him again.

I think it's funny how everyone is in love with him.

I mean you got like Akane (even though she wont admit it), Ukyo, Shampoo, Kodachi, um.. lol. I can't think.

"I would date with you." LOL. He says that in like the 2nd or 3rd anime episode.

He says it all the time to his 'pigtailed girl'...I swear, the Kuno children are the biggest idiots in the world.  They're the butt of a lot of jokes.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 10 2006, 09:41 am
They are dumb. Kodachi is always like so proper and always yelling "RANMA-SAMA!" In that dumb voice. Lol. I hate that laugh although it is hilarous. "ohohohoho!" ^^

akane socks!

Ranma and Shampoo are cute. But I think Ranma and Akane are meant to be together. (Even though they won't admit it)

I miss Akane's long beautiful hair! She has inspiried me to grow my hair out long. I felt so bad for her when she got all her hair chopped off during Ranma and Ryoga's fight. :/

One of the reasons Ryoga ticks me off.  He rushes into everything and doesn't stop to think of the consequences.  I mean, even Ranma's not that big of an idiot.

And Ra/Ak I be a fan of!

You are absolutly right!!!! But I have to admit that Ryoga always made me laugh!!! (when he got lost, or when he had his stomach painted... XD)
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 11:54 am
I thought for sure she was gonna find him out when he got his stomach painted.  One of Akane's faults; she's completely clueless sometimes....
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 12:26 pm
Lol I love that episode/chapter! I felt bad when he got all upset cause he thought she knew.

Ryoga is so hilarious. I love him! He always gets lost and he gets so dramatic over the littlest things. ^^

I'm gonna take a moment in all my canonness and say 'Haha look at the little jealous Ranma in the corner!'

Yeah, jealous him..

I know! He is so jealous! Even though he totally won't admit it. Akane won't either. Its like "Why don't you just admit it!?"

Don't you completely hate when couples ignore the love thats right in front of their faces?  -coughRANMA/AKANE, SYAORAN/SAKURA, YUKITO/TOUYAcough-

Ahem.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:06 pm
Yeah I know. They don't even see it. But it leaves room for a lot of cute moments. ^^
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2

Yup.  How far have you read?

(PS: Ha, I read your location!  Hilarious!)
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:09 pm
I'm on volume 20 currently. I haven't read it all yet. What about you?

(Yeah I thought you'd like that! Lol.)
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:16 pm
Aaah...up to 28 and missing 16.  It was funny, I was missing 21 too, and once I got it I realized that I had been missing the two that had Pantyhose in them...
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:19 pm
Lol. That's funny. Pantyhose is so hilarious. "Huh huh" That laugh is so dumb!
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:20 pm
I always thought Kodachi's laugh was my favorite.  She and Tomoyo share that sadistic...creepyness.  Kodachi's my favorite phsyco.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:21 pm
Oh gosh don't even get me started with Kodachi. "Ohohohoh." Her voice is like so weird.. Lol.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:28 pm
The only voice that annoyed me in English AND Japanese was Shampoo's.  It was all high pitched and..ew.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:32 pm
I didn't like her english voice at all. EWWW icky!!! Lol. Its like a 40 year old trying to impersoniate a young chinese girl. Now the japanese version I didn't mind all too much. I thought it was actually pretty cute.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:40 pm
I can't stand high pitched things that aren't supposed to be.  Sakura I can stand.  Mokona I can stand.  But Shampoo was, what, 16?

It DID fit her, though...
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 02:42 pm
Yeah. I hated the english version of her voice.

Bleh!

I usually watch the japanese.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:46 pm
Japanese is always better. I was watching the last season of Ranma and there was a moment between Gosunkugi and Ranma where Gosunkugi had found out the girl he was falling in love with was a ghost; Ranma in English said something like, "Who CARES if she's a ghost?!  Heck, I wouldn't care if she was Miss Butt Ugly of the Year!  You can't let something like that stop you."

In Japanese he said, "Who CARES?! So what if she's a ghost, or monster, or even an uncute tomboy? I mean...if you love her, what can you do?"

So much sweeter...

I know what you mean! Some of the english dialouge is just dumb. (Like the example you gave)
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 15 2006, 02:55 pm
It really is.  I hate dubbing for that reason.  they twist the original meanings around so that it fits the characters speech, and they don't care how stupid it sounds.

-sigh-

Hm...thinking about Ryouga..who would you pair him with?
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 15 2006, 03:06 pm
Akane! Lol. Well there's Akari too..
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 16 2006, 10:54 am
Ever thought of Ukyou?  -random-
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 16 2006, 02:53 pm
Yeah there's Ukyo too. They're cute together but I don't think they go that well together.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 16 2006, 02:57 pm
She'd continually beat him up.  Well, that sounds familiar.

Anywho's...MOUSSE! My god, how could we have forgotten Mousse!?  He is the only English voice that I actually think I like!  Just cause it suited him so well!
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 16 2006, 03:01 pm
I didn't like Mousse's english voice. It was too weird.. I love Ranma's girl voice.  Megumi Hayashibara is so hilarious.
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: bie liao on February 16 2006, 03:13 pm
I liked Ranma's jap girl voice.  The english one was too weird, and so was Akane's.  -_-

I was so mad when they made it all masculin-ish just to fit her character.  In the Jap its actually really sweet and not at all tomboyish, really...
Title: Re: Ranma 1/2
Post by: Shiunu on February 16 2006, 03:47 pm
That's true. Akane's not all the masculine. o_O. Lol. She's actually quite cute and feminine. The Japanese is just so much better.
