Description:

Director Junji Nishimura spoofs the popular Japanese genre of monster movies in these three episodes of Rumiko Takahashi's absurd martial arts comedy. A spider and a demon modeled on traditional Kabuki creatures emerge from a Chinese scroll to attack a carnival in "Scribbled Panda." The ringleader and most horrible of these beasts is an icky-cute little drawing who develops a crush on Ranma. This very funny misadventure suggests "Hello Kitty" on a rampage. "Lucky Panda" takes Genma down a river to a mysterious hidden village in the Japanese Alps--where he finds the regular cast in parallel form, but as argumentative as ever. Only in a Ranma episode could a seaside resort be terrorized by a ceramic octopus trap. Although things eventually get sorted out, no place Ranma visits could be described as getting back to normal. Unrated; suitable for ages 12 and up: Nudity, slapstick violence, mild risqué humor. --Charles Solomon
