Game Description:
A role-playing game based on Rumiko Takahashi's famous manga and anime series Ranma 1/2. Despite the series having found great popularity in the west, this game remained exclusive to Japan, likely due to RPGs still being a rather niche genre outside of the country in 1993.
Translation Description:
There are two versions of the patch. One is based more or less on the Ranma anime, the other is based more on the manga. The anime patch (v1.00) is located in the 'anime version' folder of the archive while the manga patch (v0.99) is in the 'manga version' folder.
Anyway, this is a great game. It's great to finally see it fully in English. And it's been quite some time in the making. I believe Shadow/Tasuki/System[ID] started this in '97. And since then has been passed around quite a bit until it ended up with the Ranma Team and Naruto. Anyway, this is a grade-A translation any way you look at it. They managed to squish the text from a 16×16 font to an 8×8, which makes it look nice for us English-types, as well as fit more text into a window. And the script (the anime version of it, at any rate–I've yet to play the manga version) is extremely well-written. The fits the flavor of Ranma 1/2 very well. If you're a Ranma 1/2 fan, I strongly recommend you check this out. And if you're not a Ranma fan, I recommend you get into Ranma and then check it out.
This project was originally released by the Ranma Team which has merged into Dynamic Designs. It is now offered and maintained by Dynamic Designs in association with Naruto.
