I lost it when the bride turned out to be an actual monkey in a kimono. Sentaro's grandma looking at it with total approval is the funniest thing this season
This feels like a pretty filler episode, in all honesty, and that kind of disappoints me. I still enjoyed watching, but I just kept having the though of what is exactly the point? We're introduced to two (but mainly one) new character and, while it's introduced as another obstacle to Ranma and Akane, it ends up not being that way - hence the "what's the point?" line of questioning. The comedy is all right but far from the series' best, and there weren't all too many Akane and Ranma moments to fall back on. I'm rather sad that this isn't as good as I maybe wanted it to be, especially because I really loved the episode before this one. Very hit or miss this season is so far. That being said, some of the animation sequences have been truly wonderful to watch, so it's not all awful.
While this was very well animated, the Martial Arts Tea Ceremony story wasn't as good as I remember.
