Ranma ½ Season 2 on Netflix: Release Date, Trailer, Latest News, and Everything You Need to Know
The breakout martial arts series left fans mid-fight; now all eyes are on the studio—will Season 2 get the green light?
Good news for anyone who got hooked on the new Ranma 1/2: season 2 finally has a date. And yes, it’s sooner than you probably expected.
Quick catch-up: what this remake is doing
Ranma 1/2 has been part of Japan’s pop-culture DNA for decades, starting as a manga back in 1987 and getting its first anime in 1989. The 2024 series is a full remake from the ground up, sticking to the original hook: a martial arts comedy where the lead can switch sexes thanks to a magical curse. It blends high-energy fight scenes with jokes and a little commentary on gender roles. It’s streaming internationally on Netflix, and it’s been getting praise for its crisp animation and tighter pacing. Honestly, rare case of a reboot knowing exactly what to keep and what to sharpen.
Season 2: when and what to expect
- Release date: 4 October 2025
- Episodes: Expect another 12 (season 1 ran 12)
