How do I begin to describe Ranma ½? I guess I could give it my best shot.

Ranma ½ is a story about a girl named Ranma Saotome!

Wait, no, that doesn't seem quite right…

Ranma’s a boy, right?

…Right?

I found the Ranma ½ dub online when I was roughly a pre-teen in middle school, some time between 2008 and 2011. At the early onset of puberty, that was around the time I became more conscious of the weird gender thoughts in my head. As you would expect, I wasn’t equipped to sort through them myself, and there wasn’t a single person in the world I was comfortable sharing them with either. So, naturally, I did what any repressing teen/pre-teen would do; I found means of escapism.
