My first introduction to anything Ranma or anything Rumiko Takahashi, so while I can't compare it to any of the original material I thought it was quite good. It has everything a good action romcom needs and it excels in those departments the most. The relationship while still in the beginning is convincing and well written. Good cast of characters and the art is very beautiful, color pallet is really nice to look at and the combat is well animated when needed, no thanks to Mappa. I will be continuing with season 2 and maybe checking out the original anime or manga.
