The character visuals for the completely new TV anime Ranma 1/2 (premiering on October 5th) have been revealed. Additionally, cast comments from Minami Takayama (Nabiki Tendo), Kikuko Inoue (Kasumi Tendo), and Akio Otsuka (Soun Tendo) have arrived.

Ranma 1/2 is a martial arts romantic comedy that follows the daily life of high school student Ranma Saotome, who turns into a girl when splashed with cold water, and his fiancée Akane Tendo, along with the chaos that ensues around them. The TV anime originally aired from 1989 to 1992. It was later adapted into films and OVAs, and in 2011, a live-action drama starring Yui Aragaki as Akane was produced.

Comment from Minami Takayama (Voice of Nabiki Tendo)

"Ranma 1/2" is a new yet nostalgic world for us at the Tendo household. I never imagined I would have the chance to reprise this work, which I first did shortly after my debut, in the Reiwa era! My heart is full of surprise and joy—no, it’s overflowing! To all of you who have supported us for so long and to those meeting us for the first time, please enjoy this world that feels like a brand-new creation. And please continue to support us. With love, Nabiki Tendo."

"The miracle of 'Ranma 1/2' being reborn as a completely new anime after all these years! And to think that I could be part of it again... I'm filled with indescribable joy!! I will give my utmost heart to portraying Kasumi, who is gentle, laid-back, but also a little bit of an airhead. Please continue to support us as well ♪♪♪"

"Finally! 'Ranma 1/2'! Amidst the seasoned veterans, I will do my best with the spirit of a newcomer! I will work hard, making sure there are no gaps in my performance! Please look forward to it!"
