Ideas/Assessment
I can’t consider how a lot I’m having fun with this sequence so far. Actually, Ranma 1/2 03 continues that enjoyment. If solely the Netflix subtitles weren’t utter fetid dung.
Extra Comedy Enjoyable
Although I knew every thing that might occur in Ranma 1/2 03, I discovered myself laughing out loud many occasions. I truthfully assume that one main facet of that is how nice the unique seiyuu are of their outdated elements. I’ve even gotten used to Kuno’s new seiyuu, going by way of his regular comedy routine.
That apart, Nabiki secures her function as pot stirrer. I chuckle at how she jerks Kuno’s chain, beginning with addressing him as Kuno-chan. What makes her so nice is how she goes about stirring the pot. She purposefully and earnestly says issues in such a manner that may simply be misinterpreted. On the similar time, she brazenly admits that she does issues like promote illicit pictures of feminine Ranma and Akane to Kuno.
Then there’s the heavy array of slapstick humor, akin to when Kuno takes a reliable beating. Additionally, there have been hilarious moments, akin to Akane not realizing Ranma reworked into feminine kind on the best way to high school. It’s so wild to me that despite the fact that I do know this story, the gags are hitting to effectively to me on this new model.
That’s to not say every thing is comedy. I believe this episode is the place Ranma and Akane first begin displaying a measure of care and concern for the opposite. However, this can be a Takahashi-sensei work, in order that implies that the 2 gained’t progress a lot past the place they’re at right here till the very finish of the sequence. And that’s a disgrace.
Ultimate Ideas and Conclusion
Let me wrap up my evaluate of Ranma 1/2 03 with some ultimate ideas.
- It is vitally minor, however for a present supposedly set within the 80s, it doesn’t really feel very 80s-ish. Then once more, perhaps I’m biased. I thought of that when Akane took a name on a corded phone. For younger people in the present day, that second would in all probability stick out like a sore thumb. Nonetheless, 80s-styled music would in all probability assist.
- Man, I hate to say this, however I truthfully assume the “localizer” for Netflix must be fired. More often than not, incorrect names are used within the subtitles. Why? ‘Trigger the “localizer” determined that it was silly for people to deal with one another by their final title, which is frequent in Japan.
- Past that and the lack of Japanese honorifics (save “senpai” for inexplicable causes), too typically, decisions are made to have people say issues completely different from the what they really stated. “Tomboy” as an alternative of “troublemaker” springs to thoughts. Altering the Japanese martial artwork “kenpo” to the Chinese language martial artwork “kung fu”. Kung fu and kenpo should not the identical factor.
In the long run, Ranma 1/2 03 would have been superior enjoyable, however the Netflix localizer did their finest to damage issues. I imply, what do these fool Japanese individuals know in relation to writing? 😑
