Ranma 1/2

Why did Shampoo never become Ranma 1/2's Lum? What could have been done to make her into the best girl, like she deserved to be? Also, do you think her anime hair color is blue or purple?

Why do Ranma 1/2 threads never seem to survive, whilst there are Urusei Yatsura threads daily?

Because the Urusei Yatsura anime is a masterpiece and the manga is better Ranma.
here's your pity bump

Because Ranma is already the headlining girl is pretty much every aspect.

She's already best girl.

I've never understood the appeal of Akane, to be blunt.

Because Urusei Yatsura was popular with guys while Ranma was popular with girls and girls fucking love Ranma/Akane. Also Takahashi established Akane as the heroine way before Shampoo was introduced while Lum was introduced since the first chapter and hickjacked the entire manga

Ranma 1/2 formula ends up becoming repetitive fairly quickly. Urusei Yatsura is quicker pace and also more corny yet at the same time more grounded.

Akane was better at the start, as soon as she had her hair cut off she became progressively more one-note and uninteresting, not to mention annoying. And that's saying something considering all characters pretty much only exist to play off their specific joke.

So... I'm literally the only guy in the world who thought Akane was a bitch right from the start?

I can't imagine many people liked her from the get go.

Because there's already a Lum.

Shampoo did beat out the other girls in that mega poll and was introduced sooner in the anime because of her popularity.

Nah wasnt a fan of her either. Her old haircut was nice though but she was unreasonably aggressive. At least Lum only shocks ataru when he is being a git but also is affectionate to him otherwise. Akane is 90% bitch, 5% normal, 5% nice.

Shampoo is shit.

Because she's too perfect and thus not allowed to win.

Ah, Ukyo... so much potential, wasted.

There were a lot of girls in that series.
