Starting this week, I'll be watching Ranma 1/2 and Ao no Hako as the episodes come out on Netflix. This will bring me to 12 concurrent series being watched. Is that a lot? Probably. But this is the beginning of what I'd like to do, have two current series and ten older series going at once.
With Ranma 1/2, I'll be watching both the classic and the new series at the same time. This will be an interesting experience, I think. I'm a big fan of the original, so I really want to see how this one turns out. The great thing about it is that most of the original cast is back, including the amazing Hayashibara Megumi, Hidaka Noriko, and Inoue Kikuko, among others. I've already seen the opening theme, and it has that classic Ranma 1/2 vibe to it. I can't wait to watch it.
As for Ao no Hako, this one stood out to me amongst all the others, as I rarely ever watch a sports anime, and this one is more of a romance. I don't know a lot about it, and that's how I like to keep it. I don't like spoilers, so I didn't look up much information about it. However, the concept attracted me to this series.
In the future, I'll likely start more new series as they come out. It really depends on if they stand out from the other series, and where I am with other current series. We have no information about how long either of these series are. However, Ranma 1/2 is a very long manga series, so who knows how much we'll see? Maybe we'll actually get a conclusion to the story, like we did with the manga.
What series are you most interested in watching this fall?
