Icon04 Ranma 1/2 High Quality

HEy all

I watching Ranma 1/2 Currently after waiting for it to come out in HQ I refused to watch the rm's , I got the mkv's.

Now im nearly done with the series and I Loving every eps I just wish that it dint have to end

I know the manga went on for another 4 years and maybe Ill get the manga but If I had the money I would pay ppl to make more eps until the end of the manga.

Sigh I can only wish

Rather than pay for them to make more episodes, you should consider buying the dvd's and manga to show your support instead of downloading them.

If you like it that much, you should go buy it. It's reasonably priced, in season sets, and the quality will be better than the downloads.

Umm I dont live in the usa

For me to a series that I realy want Im going to pay roughly about 82 $ for a box set of season one of Inu yasha and when you earn roughly 691 $ a month and you have to support a house hold buy yourself the two kinda dont compute

Season 2 is 103 $ also my car is 250 $ a month plus I drive +-1500 miles to work every month and the cost of fuel that what it is

So you see my problem I love to buy all my anime on DVD and the manga as well but I just dont have the money for it.
Hopefully I will be getting a new job soon and that will help out but in the mean time I will have to download it

Just keep downloading. Do whatever you want. There's way too many self-righteous high-and-mighty moralists in anime fandom. The only problem is, they actually have the money to spend on it, while some of us don't. I'm pretty sure all the people against fansubs will be quite for it if they were broke.

But as long as you download, you need to accept bad quality episodes. You can try to find the DVD rips, and you probably will, if you look in the right places.

I own both the manga and the anime. As much as I love the anime, the manga's that much better. You'll enjoy it. It's twice as long, better written and half as expensive, too. If you're loking to save money, the manga's the way to go.

Speaking of Quality, Season 6/7 of Ranma had individual DVD's with 3 episodes.I heard they had better video quality than the Box Sets, which had 5 episodes a DVD. Can anyone confirm this?

The season 6/7 box sets don't have 3 eps per disc. The 3-episode discs are DVD copies of the VHS releases, which only had 3 eps / tape. The box set discs have 4-5 episodes per disc and the quality is good for titles that age.

As for the difference in quality between the box set DVDs and the singles, I have no idea. I knew the real box sets were being released, so I never bothered with the singles.

Nah, I just wouldn't watch anime, as I didn't for years when I had no time or money. It's just an expensive hobby, not some kind of addiction that would drive me to break the law to pursue it.
