Black-haired girl Ranma
🕑 Added 2023-03-09 16:26:39 +0000 UTCA redraw of a drawing from 2019 of girl Ranma with boy Ranma’s black hair!
The manga leaves it somewhat ambiguous what Ranma’s hair colour is in girl form, but most people imagine it stays black, and the anime just went with red to better differentiate the characters.
I personally wished they’d just left his hair black, it would have made the curse feel more focused on the changes it makes to his body, instead of it feeling like the girl Ranma is a completely separate character to the boy Ranma.
(I included a side-by-side comparison to the 2019 version, cool to see my style develop over time! And this was a rare occasion where I liked the drawing at every stage, even right from the roughest sketch.)

Yeah, black hair does look better.

The wonders a change in hair colour will do! That’s what I enjoy about his girl form still having black hair. It’s like a trick of the brain. That’s still RANMA, he’s just got a different body and he’s now swimming in all of his clothes :P

Ranma still looks like a guy here, especially in that outfit
