Speaking from an artist’s perspective, I don’t think this will make Takahashi-san make a “wedding chapter” of Ranma 1/2. There is pretty much a 10% chance of this happening. Artists usually move onto new projects because they worked on one thing for so long, and they are pretty set on their endings. They prefer it lives on in their fans I’m sure.
HOWEVER, with the recent Spring of Cursed Sleep OAV and live drama happening in the last few years, there is a potential for more anime, I think. Which I think a petition might have a better chance of helping. BUT, it doesn’t hurt to signal boost this. Just my two cents on the matter.
I can’t get over how Ranma 1/2 is a manga aimed for children and yet we’re flashed all the time.
Oh, Japan.
Ranma 1/2 was originally shown in Weekly Shonen Sunday, a manga magazine aimed at a shōnen audience, but was not necessarily aimed for children. Shonen Sunday often had very mature manga series, some of which by “Cutey Honey” creator, Go Nagai, known for even having his non-adult series with *some* erotic content. While shonen manga are often for males ages 10 and up, Shonen Sunday was not really a magazine aimed at kids. They often had interviews and articles about celebrities and news that I’m sure children would find pretty boring. Most of Ranma’s readership were 15-year olds and up, most of which were young females. And of course, the Ranma manga never had anything more than boobs flashed. Nudity isn’t so much a problem in Japan as it is in the US. It served a comedic purpose most of the time (which when I was 12, my parents and grandparents understood, and they had no problem with me watching it when I was so young). I think even the manga when it was released here had some warnings, but not enough to completely ban kids from reading it because Ranma 1/2 is pretty tame.
