I thought this deserved a special announcement.



Viz Media is preparing to release the massive 161 episode anime series, Ranma 1/2, to Blu-ray in 2014, according to a write-up on Anime News Network. While no exact release date is set, the anime is set to be streamed to new anime fans this fall with a Blu-ray release to follow soon afterwards.

North American manga and anime publisher Viz Media announced at its panel at Otakon on Saturday that it will release the Ranma ½ television anime series on Blu-ray Disc and DVD. The release will mark the first time the series will get a release on Blu-ray Disc in North America. The show will also debut this fall on Neon Alley, and will also stream on VizAnime.com. Additionally, Viz Media will host special Ranma ½ programming at New York Comic Con in October.

Viz Media had previously released the 161-episode series on VHS and DVD between 1995-2008. The show originally aired in Japan between 1989-1992.
