A question about Ranma 1/2 and Urusei Yatsura

[Neosevangel]

I have a question about the Ranma 1/2 manga. Is there LESS nudity in it than the anime. (Since the anime made a lot of fillers) I know the nudity probably is more explicit but is there less? From the synopsises I've been reading nudity doesn't seem to be a chapterly thing like in Maison Ikkoku (found that out the hard way!).

I just want to know that.

Another thing is there any nudity in Urusei Yatsura besides Lum in a bikini almost 24/7. If so how often in a novel. (sort of as the same as above.)

Please help me and answer this! Thank you for your time.

Frienship at its finest!

The content of Ranma 1/2 is discussed a great deal in this thread...

I don't know about Urusei Yatsura.

From what little I can remember about Urusei Yatsura, I don't remember any/much nudity. It doesn't stick out in my mind, so if there was any, it wasn't much. But don't just take my word for it...lol

I do know that Lum makes a cameo appearence in Ranma 1/2 for a hot spring seen.

Anime or manga version?

From what little I can remember about Urusei Yatsura, I don't remember any/much nudity.

In the anime, there's definately some, at least. It's not Ranma, but at least 3 scenes jump to mind. As for a review, I *thought* we had one, but it only looks like there are only reviews for OAVs. I'm guessing shooby will put one up soon enough.

I don't remember much nudity in UY in either the manga or the anime, though I am much more familiar with the Urusei anime. The only parts I remember is the intro episode where Lum loses her top, and I think a couple shots where someone loses part of their clothes, but all of it is very very brief, and I only recall a very few scenes being present.

Ranma does have some -- not a massive amount, but it is there. The anime is, IMHO, tamer than the manga, but in neither case is the nudity particularly sexualized (mostly comedic to demonstrate how bad Ranma is at being a girl -- nevertheless, you should stay away if this represents a stumbling block for you).

Maison Ikkoku the show has infrequent nudity and only briefly at that (mostly Akemi strutting around in a see-through top), but the manga does have a few scenes related to the bedroom and thus I don't recommend the manga widely even considering the well-written story line.

I have only read the manga so don't know anything about the anime.
However I do find that once you get used to Ranma going from his
Boy to his Girl form it really is rather hilarious series.

I read one volume of the manga, and there was a lot of detailed nudity, sadly (often when Ranama changes from a boy to a girl). I have not seen the anime, but comparing it to other mangas, there is some.

Do you remember which volume it was. Some are worse than others.
