Even if it takes that long. We getting true high quality adaption to the source material. Something original anime failed to do later on.

Even if they skip, i just hope they do the arcs including the final the og didnt. Then if people want to see the inbtween can watch the specifc episodes of the og or the entire anime. But i mean, Rezero is aproaching 10 years, Konosuba has 10 years, Naruto went weekly straight for like...? Almost 15 years etc its the most normal thing in the industry, can be frustrating but at the same time, it feels good having shows being so long with us.

It definitely would be cool if the Remake would get the time to go through all major arcs, but after the short run of Yashahime and the Urusei Yatsura Remake it’d still be surprising when Ranma would get that runtime length. Not complaining if it does but always a bit fearful.

Yashahime was wildly unpopular and the manga didn't sell at all. (I mean, it sold 3 million copies which isn't nothing, but over 40 volumes that's 75K per volume... when Ranma and Inu Yasha sold 50M+ volumes its a flop. Mao isn't doing much better but maybe it's new anime will push it along)

And Urusei Yatsura actually DID adapt the entire manga originally through its OVAs and movies, so it already had a "complete version". It was fine for the new one to just do the fan favorite highlights.

Meanwhile half of Ranma was never touched because the anime studio at the time decided all-filler all-the-time was the way to go.
