Do you know if this band sang other songs? I have trouble searching because of how generic the band name is. I love this song and would love to find more like it :)
i remember seeing this on pokemon vhs, those were simpler times and i sort of miss them, adn this movie looked so much more epic when i was 5 years old lol
Oh my goodness! I remember this commercial! No, I haven’t seen the movie. Just this commercial. I cannot believe that I remember this ad, even after all these years.
I remember watching this advertisement in the early 2000s on the Pokemon vhs as a small child. The part that always stuck out to me was when the girl (Lychee) steps on the elephant trunk and the song that's played in the background. It wasn't until a couple years later (when we finally got internet) my sister decided rewatch the tape and look up the series. Been a fan of Ranma ever since!!
It's great to hunt down some of the series you grew up with that maybe didn't have the money or the access to find. With the various anime streaming channels there have been a lot of old ones we've looked up as well.
Same here fam, most of us know of this song as well as have first learned about Ranma from watching many of the various Pokémon VHSs!😄 Man, the childhood nostalgia!😭😖!
When I was a kid this commercial was seemingly at the end of every single anime DVD I ever rented from Blockbuster but since I could never actually find the movie I ended up believing this was a fake commercial and that Ranma didn't actually exist. It wasn't until I was older and more well versed in researching that I learned this was real lol
Love this ad! I definitely remember it being on the end of the Pokemon videos. So many memories and I still remember wondering if this show would be on Kids' WB! too. That would've been cool.
@@92JazzQueen yup but back then I didn’t know how naughty it was, too naughty to join Pokemon on Kids’ WB! I thought since it was an ad on a Pokemon tape, that meant it was kid friendly and family friendly like Pokemon was.

I just started watching Ranma 1/2, and got frustrated trying to remember the trailer I used to watch all the time as a kid that had a guy who looked similar to Ryoga in it. It took me far longer than it should have to connect the two.
A Bit ironic too considering that in English Dub episode of Ranma 1/2 "And the Challenger is... A Girl?!" "Dōjō Yaburi wa Onna no Ko? Akane asks Tamari if she wanted to watch Pokemon
I remember being entranced by this commercial on the pokemon vhs tape as a kid. I loved watching it as much as I loved the pokemon movie and even had dreams about. Never seen ranma ½ either
Viz released this movie before they were even finished localizing the first season of Ranma 1/2, which made it confusing for some viewers since it features characters like Ukyo, Mousse, Tsubasa, and Happousai before the series even introduced them.
Haha yes, that was interesting, the OVAs had the same issues as well. I think they wanted to get out the stuff that had really great animation since they knew they would be strong sellers and help the series.
OMG what...?! I remembered seeing this in a VCR tape when I was like---9 or 10! Wow!! Damn...! So THAT'S what I was looking...! Dang that's crazy--This is just some weird moment for me haha Pretty cool~
I remember starting to read the manga,borrowed from the local library after seeing this at the end of every Pokemon videotape;it was good but I think I only got to the part where the school principal returns
Tv 5 home of the movies... we first watch this animae on your network so please show this movie on your network in some other time.... we love this animae so much... we found ourself back into a childhood memories... please show this i begging your mercy...
Suncoast was our anime destination at the time too, I can still remember the familiar selection of about 10 Tenchi Muyo VHS tapes they inevitably had, a few Serial Experiment Lain towards the later days, Vampire Hunter D, always Akira and Golgo 13.
God, I remember every word from the advertisement at the end of the Pokemon VHS. Was a while before I actually watched Ranma 1/2 and recognized it.
SAME
Ichigo13Hanyou HOLY SHIT I FEEL THE SAME WAY. You must be talking about the episode with bulbasaur right?
Nostalgia chills
Yep.
Holy Omg yess RIIIGHT💖
amazing how a melody can STICK SO HARD inside your head for literal YEARS
I've searched for this movie for so long and I totally get it
Never forget the way she says kidnapped so angry like it really happened either..understandable reaction
Dude this melody has been stuck in my head for like 25 years. I think this trailer was on a power rangers movie or something
It was at the beginning of a Pokemon VHS I used to have. Some episode where Primeape becomes a fighting champion or something
"It's Love" by Rabbit is the song used in this spot, in case anybody else found their way here looking for that.
Yes, thank you

I'm glad you were able to eventually find the series!
@@TheRumicWorld Me too, I love the series!
Crazy how I got chills watching this advert.
It used to be on a LOT of VIS VHS' and
on nearly every Ranma ½ VHS I owned.
It's a great piece of nostalgia, as you said it was on pretty much every Viz Video for years and years in the 1990s. The movie holds up well!
*I FOUND IT!! I FOUND AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!!*
dont forget the KIMBAAAAA add at the end of the pokemon VHS
My introduction to Ranma!
It was a lovely film, I think this and the OVAs were what brought a lot of western fans into anime.
Love this ad! I definitely remember it being on the end of the Pokemon videos. So many memories and I still remember wondering if this show would be on Kids' WB! too. That would've been cool.
It wouldn't have been on due to the nudity.
@@92JazzQueen yup but back then I didn’t know how naughty it was, too naughty to join Pokemon on Kids’ WB! I thought since it was an ad on a Pokemon tape, that meant it was kid friendly and family friendly like Pokemon was.
@@Trekapedia Probably the guys who advertised it throught it was kid stuff as well.
@@92JazzQueen wouldn’t surprise me at all.
Same here fam, most of us know of this song as well as have first learned about Ranma from watching many of the various Pokémon VHSs!😄 Man, the childhood nostalgia!😭😖!
It wasn't just on Pokemon tapes, a good deal of Viz tapes had these commercials.
"How am I supposed to hold all these feels."
I just started watching Ranma 1/2, and got frustrated trying to remember the trailer I used to watch all the time as a kid that had a guy who looked similar to Ryoga in it. It took me far longer than it should have to connect the two.
where can i wtch this movie
Holy crap I remember watching this movie trailer and thinking it was a great movie. I never knew it was Ranma 1/2
A Bit ironic too considering that in English Dub episode of Ranma 1/2 "And the Challenger is... A Girl?!"
"Dōjō Yaburi wa Onna no Ko?
Akane asks Tamari if she wanted to watch Pokemon
First saw this in the Fatal Fury Motion Picture VHS back in the day. The glory days of anime.
the pipeline of watching pokemon from blockbuster and then loving all of rumiko’s works
this ad was on my fatal fury vhs tapes. blimey. been a long time since i seen it.
I remember being entranced by this commercial on the pokemon vhs tape as a kid. I loved watching it as much as I loved the pokemon movie and even had dreams about. Never seen ranma ½ either
With the new anime adaptation, it's a great time to get into Ranma 1/2!
So many memories :,)
happy 30th anniversary ranma 1/2 big trouble in nekonron china!!! :3
I remember this was on the first Pokemon VHS tape which I watched so many times it wore out haha.
Viz released this movie before they were even finished localizing the first season of Ranma 1/2, which made it confusing for some viewers since it features characters like Ukyo, Mousse, Tsubasa, and Happousai before the series even introduced them.

love this movie and the ad for it too. :3
01:01
So who else remembers seeing this after the credits of Pokemon tapes?
Tv 5 home of the movies... we first watch this animae on your network so please show this movie on your network in some other time.... we love this animae so much... we found ourself back into a childhood memories... please show this i begging your mercy...
So much pokemon feels
I saw this at the end of a Pokemon tape I had. I liked the song, so I bought the movie at Suncoast.
Suncoast was our anime destination at the time too, I can still remember the familiar selection of about 10 Tenchi Muyo VHS tapes they inevitably had, a few Serial Experiment Lain towards the later days, Vampire Hunter D, always Akira and Golgo 13.
Fucking hurricane of nostalgia
Did anyone else see this at the end of a Kimba VHS tape?
Good times
where can i watch this movie @Rumic World
But Guys, I hope they announce A Very New Series from Ranma ½ 😔
でも、みんな、らんま1/2のまったく新しいシリーズが発表されることを期待しています😔
I don't suppose anyone knows the name of the song used in this trailer, do they?
I know this comment is over a decade old, but the song is called It's Love by Rabbit!

this movie had guts to entertain us without the agenda driven storytelling
