Saddened to hear that Mutsumi Inomata (いのまたむつみ) has passed away. She's known for many beautiful character designs & art for the Tales of video games, and OVAs like Leda, Windaria & The Weathering Continent, but one of her first jobs was as a key animator on Urusei Yatsura.

In obviously very disappointing news a number of episodes of the new Ranma 1/2 series have leaked online. Needless to say, viewing these and not financially supporting the show disincentivizes more Ranma 1/2 being made. This is a tremendous loss to MAPPA for their hard work.

"It's true that with Ranma I was conscious of him being the hero of a shonen manga, but he also transforms into a girl, so he's more of a curveball character. So, in that sense, you could say that Inuyasha was the first shonen manga hero that I took seriously." -Rumiko Takahashi
