    Haha Ryoga is the original lost boy it's the character that started the whole trend of “no sense of direction” gag, also The beginning of the episode is a reference to the SNES Ranma game.

      I think so. This mangaka had a uge influence on other mangakas. (Rumiko Takahashi has won twice the Shogakukan Manga Award in the shônen category and had tons of anime adaptations...)
      She's very good at creating characters and fun situations (but not in the long run in my opinion, I prefer her wonderful short stories)

    Thanks for reacting.
    By the way.
    As autumn deepens, November is a season when it can feel nature with all your senses, such as autumn leaves and seasonal ingredients. It is also the time when you can feel the signs of winter, and the time of the new grain, so festivals to express gratitude for production and labor, and festivals to pray for future business prosperity are held in various places. So I would like to introduce such representative traditional events and annual events in Japan, and their meanings and origins a little.
    The first festival of Nov. is Tori (chinese astrology) no Ichi. In Tokyo, food stalls and stalls are lined up in the precincts of over 40 shrines and temples, and when a lucky rake is sold, people join in with a spirited hand-clapping, making it a seasonal event at the end of the year.
    So, this time I'd like to introduce Tori no Ichi. There are various theories about the origin of Tori no Ichi, but one of the most popular is that it is a festival at Ohtori Shrine in Adachi Ward, Tokyo, which enshrines Yamato Takeru no Mikoto (a mythical hero). Since the Edo era Ohtori Shrine has been holding a festival to express gratitude on the day of the rooster in November, which is said to be the anniversary of Yamato Takeru's death.
    Tori no Ichi - In 2024, the first Tori day is Nov. 5th (Tuesday), the second Tori day is Nov. 17th (Sunday), and the third Tori day is Nov. 29th (Friday).
    But, these dates are based on the lunar calendar, so they change every year in the solar calendar.
    The first Tori day in November is generally held in high regard, with the Tori days that come around every 12 days being called Ichinotori (first), Ninotori (second), Sannotori (third).
    Tori no Ichi begins with the first drum being struck at midnight on the first Tori day, and the festival continues all day.
    Originally, this was an event mainly attended by samurai, as Yamato Takeru no mikoto (mythical hero) was a "god of war". But, when the wars subsided in the middle of the Edo period, it gradually spread to farmers and changed into a festival celebrating the harvest. And The rakes, which were sold as farm tools in the market, were seen as objects that rake up good fortune, gold, and silver, and became lucky charms for prosperous business, attracting townspeople to the festival. l attracted townspeople.
    But, the head shrine of Ohtori is Ohtori Taisha in Osaka. But, although Ohtori Taisha has a feast called the "Tori no Hi (rooster's day) Festival," there are no markets or night stalls like the Kanto region. Reason, Yamato Takeru is a war god. So, it was held mainly in the Kanto region, which was the center of Samurai society.
    On the other hand, an event that is widely held throughout the country, mainly in the Kansai region, at this time of year is the "Ebisu Ko," which worships Ebisu (one of the Seven Lucky Gods, the guardian deity of commerce, fishing, and the sea, and also the god of the fields). Like Tori no Ichi, it is a prayer for prosperity in business and safety in the home, but it is unrelated to Tori no Ichi. But, the scale of this festival is much larger than Tori no ichi. So I will introduce this one as well if I have the opportunity.
    And, It is said that there are many fires in years with the "Third Tori" in November. But, there is no historical record of many fires occurring in years with the Third Tori.
    But, near Ohtori Shrine there is the "Yoshiwara Yuukaku (red-light)" It is said that this is an urban legend created by the women who could no longer tolerate the men using the Tori-no-ichi festival as an excuse to go to Yoshiwara.

    At this point, especially with old manga with multiple adaptations, who borrowed what from who is pretty much a jenga stack. The original mangas for both were pretty much concurrent, but R1/2 ended in 1996 because Rumiko Takahashi wanted to start a new series (Inuyasha) while Jojo kept on going. The original Ranma 1/2 anime ran from 1989-1992, but movies and OVAs continued to come out years afterward. The Jojo anime movie Phantom Blood came out in '87, the OVAs came out in 1993-94, and then there was the TV series from 2012 thru 2022. That series was done by David Productions, who subsequently did the reboot of Urusei Yatsura (Rumiko Takahashi's series before Ranma) which was chock full of easter eggs of Takahashi's other works, including more than one cameo from Akane and the boring readings in English class were descriptions of the plot from Ranma.

  • @0okamino
    @0okamino 25 днів тому +1

    With the particular kanji that is used, ryou = good, ga = fang. So his name matches his appearance. Rumiko Takahashi frequently gives her characters names which reflect something about them, with varying significance. 😄
    As for whether Ranma or JoJo was first, that depends on what you mean. Both manga series started the same year (1987), but the Ranma anime started in 1989, while it wasn’t until 1993 for JoJo, by which time, the Ranma TV anime had already ended (1992), though new Ranma OVAs and movies were released for several years beyond that.

    Speaking of cafeteria food budget, I remember my first week on my high school days which is there's one food product or rather snack product that is very popular among boys but unfortunately it's very low in quantity. Everyday during break time every boys were like spartans rushing to cafeteria and I'm one of those. The cafeteria were so crowded because of that product and unfortunately for me my uniform drenched in sweat and break time is over but I couldn't lay a hand on that product, not until the fifth day I managed to push myself on the front and you know what, that cafeteria lady told me that they don't have enough change on my bill, my world stop revolving for a second after hearing that and I got overwhelmed by the spartan boys at my back pulling me out of the lane. All my sweat, hard work and time shattered and that day I gave up on that product 😂
    By the way, If you guys wondering why Ryoga's so mad at Ranma I'll give you a little hint, if you guys know Llenn(Gun Gale Online main character) it's Llenn's P90 submachine gun name 😂

    Ranma 1/2 probably inspired various other works... However I guess it was in turn inspired by Cinderella Boy (a 1980 manga by Monkey Punch, author of Lupin the third), which has been adapted into a 13 episodes anime in 2003... You might want to give it a try. I don't want to spoil anything, but one of the two protagonists is named Ranma.

      The first anime had a reference to Nausicaa just before the boar attack. :) Check it out. (music looking like Joe Hisaishi + Ryoga in the desert wearing a mask and a costume recalling Nausicaa) Nausicaa was already popular at that time.
      In the 2024 remake, the settings, the colors, really remind me of Mononoke as if the animators wanted to make a subtile easter egg. "We can't do the WTF trick of the old anime but it's a boar scene like in Mononoke so why not play a little ?"
      The view of the village from above at the beginning just got me...
      Just my random feelings guys...
      Just imagine it's the opposite and Miyazaki was shown this episode of the old Ranma anime because of the Nausicaa easter egg, watched the boar scene and liked it so much it inspired him ?
      I checked on wikipedia :
      Tomomi Mochizuki (Ranma 1/2's old anime's film director) directed Ghibli's Umi ga Kikoeru (Ocean Wave) in 1993.

      Translation : I know Rumiko Takahashi couldn't have made a reference to Mononoke Hime in her 1987 manga.
      I know there is a boar attack in the orginal manga that I own since 1994 in an horrible french edition.
      Sorry if my english is not good enough...
      The world of talented animators is very small. I believe the 2024 animators of the remake watched the first Ranma anime.
      I believe Miyazaki was shown the episode of the old Ranma serie with a 2 minutes reference to his Nausicaa followed immediatly by the boar scene. Maybe it stayed in his mind and he used it later in his Mononoke Hime ?
      Tomomi Mochizuki was working at studio Ghibli just before Mononoke Hime.
      Maybe I felt the reference wrong but it's not impossible that there was a connexion between Miyazaki and Tomomi Mochizuki :
      1984 : Nausicaa (from Miyazaki 1982 manga Shuna no tabi )
      1987 : Ranma's manga by Rumiko Takahashi
      1989 : Ranma Anime director Tomomi Mochizuki makes a reference to Miyazaki Nausicaa in episode 7 of Ranma 1/2 just before the boar scene
      1993 : Tomomi Mochizuki is chosen as a film director on Umi ga kikoeru at Ghibli
      1994 : Miyazaki starts working on his new project but suffers from lack of inspiration
      1997 : Mononoke Hime starts with a brilliant boar scene (there is no boar scene in MIyazaki's Shuna no tabi)
      2024 : Ranma's remake has a boar scene with a cinematography recalling Mononoke Hime
      Well, maybe it's just a weird theory...
