Summary: Hey. It's good.
Review: Actually... I haven't exactly read that many of the English-translated sets here (I do, however, have all 38 Japan-bought manga), so I can't really say this without claim, but anyway: I bought a traslated version, vol. 3, read it, and thought that the english version was sorta handicapped by the general problems of translating (that is, having to reverse pictures, erase and put in translated in sound affects - that especially, since alot of sound effects are these wording jokes that Takahashi-sensei put in, figure out how to deal with Japanese puns and jokes). But a bunch of non-japanese speaking people thinks that it's funny and action packed anyway. So what I'm saying here is that this thing isn't just funny and action packed, it's hilarious and, well, really action packed. Sorry, couldn't think of a good word. Not only that, I thought the english version ain't that bad. There's little glitches in translation, but I've had to traslate a bunch a Japanese stuff before too, that stuff can't be avoided, and they made a pretty good trans job. (Really good, if I think back on other examples of japanese traslating people... Besides, what you don't know won't hurt.)I showed the one traslated vol. 3 to my random friend (American) along with the first few stories that I had traslated for the heck of it, and 2 and a half days later she was like, "You will give me the name and place of where you got this, Yes?" In fact the only thing that's bad (yes, I admit the translations are pretty good afterall) is that the stuff is so expensive! Aiee! One more thing: wow, they (Vis or whoever) translated every story and every page of everything Rumiko Takahashi wrote. Dang.

Summary: Purchasing #10 for Ranma 1/2 club
Review: Heh. Cool. I'm buying Ranma 1/2 Volume 10 for our Ranma 1/2 "club" at school. A whole bunch of eighth graders in our school (Owego Appalachin Middle School in Owego, NY) have formed a club where each of us buys a couple Ranma 1/2 books, and lets everyone else read them. I, myself have read #1-5, and have #6 right next to me, ready to read. Well, about the story... If you didn't know, Ranma Saotome is a Japanese martial artist, who fell into an accursed spring in China, and now whenever he is doused with cold water, he becomes a girl. (Warm water reverses the curse.) This series of books has a variety of characters, including Ranma's fiance, Akane Tendo, Ranma's arch rival, Ryoga, Shampoo (Ranma's love-sick "other fiance", and many family members and companions of these people. Ranma has people of both sexes try to get a date with him in these humurous graphic novels. I also like the martial arts and fighting scenes. This series has a total of 38 books, with 14 of them translated to English for us to buy. (Yeah!) -Peter Berg Ranma 1/2 rules! (So does anime)

Summary: Ranma is the best!
Review: Ranma is my favorite manga series of all time, even though I have only read a couple of the 21 books. This is one of my personal favorites. The principal of Furinkan High comes back, and he's not what he seems. He implements a new haircut rule that has the students scrambling to find a very special coconut, and his tardy plan is designed to make you late, not keep you from being late! Akane gets a powerup, and Xian Pu tries once again to try and get Ranma for her own. A great book, and well worth your time.

Summary: Just Add Water For Fun!
Review: This book is probably the best out of all of the Ranma 1/2 series. From the zany super-soba episode, to the insane principle episode, this book keeps you interested the entire time. The crazy antics of Ranma Saotome will keep you coming back for more! I have already read this one a few times, and would highly recommend it to you!

Review: This is good manga because it's Rumiko Takahashi. But I think that this is one the mose boring and repetive of the "Ranma 1/2" Series. All I'm saying is that it could be better
