We're going to see more of the remake of Ranma 1/2, as season 2 of the anime was confirmed at Jump Festa 2025. There's a brief trailer showing moments from the first season, with the reveal that more episodes are in the works at the end. Said first season is currently available on Netflix worldwide.
First, here's the teaser. It includes a flurry of clips from the show. We see Ranma, both as a boy and a girl, of course. His father Genma, Akane, Shampoo, and Ryoga come up as well. The one moment that appears for the longest period of time is one with Ranma perched on a fence, looking down at a short-haired Akane as she stares up at him. It's then that we see the logo and the reveal that season 2 is in development.
Here's the full footage:
There's also special art to honor the fact that Ranma 1/2 is coming back. It appeared on the official social media account. It features Akane in the center, with the male and female versions of Ranma on either side of her. Ranma's father Genma is behind them in his panda form.
In addition to the new Ranma 1/2 remake, the original anime can still be found online. It's steaming on Hulu and Amazon. Viz Media handles the manga outside of Japan, as well as physical copies of the anime.
Season 1 of the remake of Ranma 1/2 is available on Netflix now, and season 2 of the anime is in development.

Back in October 2024, Good Smile Company revealed it was working on Robin and Sunday Honkai: Star Rail Nendoroids at Shanghai Wonder Festival 2024. Only unpainted prototypes appeared at the event. Now, official photos appeared on Weibo showing off the painted versions of the Honkai: Star Rail figures of the siblings. The announcement also suggested we'll see them in August 2025.
First, here are the initial photos of the Honkai: Star Rail Robin Nendoroid. She comes with three face plates. One shows her with a calm, gentle smile. Another is a wide smile with her eyes shut. In the third, she looks like she's singing. Her accessories include her winged microphone, her cell phone, and a stage that can go over her base. She'll also have a small halo on her head.
Here's how Robin looks so far.
Likewise, the Honkai: Star Rail Sunday Nendoroid features a similar number of accessories. He has a neutral, calm smile in one. Another features a more sinister, open-mouthed smile. In the third, he has an angry expression. His accessories include one of the ravens he would send to spy, one of the Echo of Faded Dreams enemies, and a window sheet he can be posed alongside. He also has a halo, like his sister.
Here's how this Honkai: Star Rail figure looks so far.
Quite a few Nendoroids based on the series both already appeared and are on the way. You can pick up ones of Nameless members Dan Heng and March 7th, and there's even a Nendoroid Doll of him. Aventurine and Blade ones showed up too.
The Honkai: Star Rail Robin and Sunday Nendoroids have a August 2025 release window. The game is available on the PS5, PC, and mobile devices.
