Not quite as much of a throwback, but this one gives me them nostalgia feels.
I remember reading an interview where someone asked the creator lady what would happen if Girl Ranma got pregnant and she was mortified.
Valid question tho. I guess it fell outside the bounds of light smut martial arts comedy.

Apparently ann rice was kind of like that too. She wrote a lot of dark cringey shit, like vampires eat menstrual blood and was yet somehow shocked and annoyed by fans that were into it.
Slightly related, I vaguely remember the character of Ranma growing out of a character in a previous work that she was tired of writing as female or male. She carried that over. She probably thought she had found a clever solution to her problems with the previous story and never gave deep thought to the Ranmaifications of her plot device.
It was lum. Ramna was loosely based on the girl that had to dress as a boy. Apparently by the end of lum, that's who she really wanted to write about and the water gender swap thing was a plot device to allow it.
When I was at my most Anime, I was still very cheap- so everything I bought was done via the ADV sales. I have several incomplete sets of various series because only certain volumes were ever put on sale. But I got into Nadesico, Full Metal Panic, Nadia, and Kino because of them. Someday I’ll finish Madlax, Lain, and all the others.
I have the original airings of tank police and record of loans war somewhere on vhs from the scifi channle. If I ever find them I should upload the intro outro bits from that Japanese animator.
I read that record of loans war inspired mr robot.
