[Starscream Gaga]

You guys all need Manga re-education! Everyone deserves Ranma 1/2 in their lives. Manga or Anime!

The Ranma Figuarts couldn't come out faster for me. I assume they'll be very popular in Japan, so I expect Akane and Ryoga to follow soon! Then Kuno... Then Shampoo (although I hate the character)...

As for Sailor Moon compared to Ranma, I'd say any perceived difference is simply from Ranma wearing normal clothes rather then flashy outfits. It's a far cry from the standard Figuarts! In fact, they may be the first ever to wear clothes that could be considered casual in the Figuarts line. Rumiko's signature simple art-style is probably a factor too, I guess. But as someone who's read Ranma their whole lives, I couldn't be happier! I'll buy every single one they release in a heart beat.

Well... I was told to drop it, but since you asked I guess there's no harm in explaining my statement as long as it doesn't send the topic off course. It was cut from the anime (in which it was changed to a single-sided schoolgirl crush) but the manga featured a 10 year-old and her adult teacher mutually in love with each other. The writers (CLAMP) have a "love holds no barriers" ideology, including adults in love with young children. I guess if you want more information then Google-Fu it and read more about it and CLAMP's rather dangerous opinion.
