Now that Ranma 1/2 is getting a reboot, as an adult I realise he would have loved Ardanareshwar and the fact that I didn’t know said god existed as a kid is a sheer travesty.

#shit they don’t teach you in balavihar class:#I wonder if THAT was where rumiko takahashi got the idea from #I’m REALLY surprised nobody ever made the connection when ranma aired on Animax all those years ago #it even had a Hindi dub and to my recollection even in Hindi nobody ever referenced the connection #…does this mean culturally translated ranma 1/2 would be called ardhana-ranma #and instead of a curse from a hot spring it would be a blessing from the actual ardanareshwar?#…actually his name would be changed to Arjuna/Arjuni #yet ANOTHER character from Hindu texts who has a female form #desiblr #hindublr
