Saw it back in 1994 (I was 10) when a friend rented a Japanese laser disc. No subs so I had no idea what was being said, but it certainly got my attention when Ranma first transformed, and ripped "her" top open to express shock over it.

Somehow I never even noticed it was a harem anime. Normally I can't stand those.

I guess it's because of how Ranma reacts. Is either annoyed by their feelings, or oblivious.

Plus, at least some of the girls have other love interests.

Probably also because it was unique for having a reverse harem centered around Akane. Everyone chasing after Ranma wanted Akane dead, and everyone chasing after Akane wanted Ranma dead.

ranma was made by the same woman who made inuyasha
you can tell because ranma and akane have a lot of similarities with inuyasha and kagome.
also both shows were dragged out so long the quality suffered
though dragging things out for as long as possible did turn her into the richest woman in japan

anyway you should read the manga majou sensei negima
its a fun subversion of the harem genre

see the author got popular for making the harem anime love hina
but for his next work he wanted to make a fighting series
but his publisher said nope make another harem comedy.

so he made the main character a 12 year old boy and all the girls 15/16 so no one would take the harem aspect of the series seriously.
then he slowly started giving the girl powers that would work in a battle series.
then he stared introducing more and more dangerous situations to put the girls in where they and negi had to fight against.

the series was in its first DBZ style tournament arc before the publisher caught on that he had been tricked and the author made a fighting series anyway.
then the author demanded a raise cause his series was getting popular

is this anime actually worth watching for a person who has never seen anime in his life? the music I heard on YouTube for this was calm and pleasant to the ears.

Lol, that's pretty funny.

I remember trying to watch the anime in my early anime days but was just too weirded out by the age-gap harem. Sounds like either A: I should have stuck it out, or B: the anime is more harem-y than the manga.

It kind of harem lite. It came well before the days of waifus and plots solely focused on girls chasing the guy, and could just be about wacky antics with bizarre martial arts. Also Harem tries to keep the end result open, but Ranma was written to be firm on Akane and the others weren't given a chance

Every once in a while I'll rewatch some of my favorite episodes. The one with the lion roar shot/shi shi hokodan is probably my overall favorite.
