Oof I’ll never forget getting the first Ranma 1/2 manga as a kid. It was my first egg moment. All I could think was how I’d never touch hot water again.

I don’t even know why I got that manga, had never heard of it but it was on a list of manga that my local book store could order and I just randomly picked it. It took over 25 years after that for my egg to break but Ranma 1/2 awoke something in me. Growing up when and where I did I couldn’t really explore those feelings and ideas but I never stopped thinking about it.

Ranma taught me that any everyday activity can be a martial art and multiple freaks out there want to destroy any sort of domestic relationship.

a friend of mine from church recommend this to me a full decade before my egg cracked, i got about halfway through season 2 before stopping because i couldn’t process the feelings. i read the manga this year (after being out for almost a year) and it’s pretty good
