    This entry is a 45 minute documentary featuring the highlights of the first episodes of Ranma 1/2 with commentary from a few seiyuus (Male Ranma, Akane, Female Ranma, Tofu-sensei, Tatewaki Kuno, Ryoga and Shampoo). I'm a sucker for this type of content so I was thrilled when I got the chance to watch it. Obviously the anime clips are visually dated but that's to be expected. It will feel nostalgic to those that watched the show a very long time. In my case, I watched Ranma 1/2 back in 2009. There's two major flaws that I found with the documentary: 1) when the voice actorsare speaking, the soundtrack playing is way too loud. n2) I would love to see Nabiki, Kasumi and the fathers in it. A little bit of Kodachi's crazy laughter would be lovely, too. nnHaving said that, if you adore Ranma 1/2's universe and/or are interested in the seiyuu perspective, you should watch this. nnIt gets a 7/10 from me.
