Image of the Day: Ranma, My Boy!

Tonight's output is wimpy because I am very sleepy, but it turned out okay for the ~20 minutes I spent on it. Genma Saotome is the father from the manga/anime Ranma 1/2 by Rumiko Takahashi - but you already knew that!

Ranma 1/2 is bar-none my favorite manga series. I don't know how it plays in Japan, but as an American I particularly appreciate how it generally takes the piss out of gender politics, yet pulls it off in a pure, good-natured fashion. With our fidgety ways in this country, Ranma 1/2 should make me feel dirty, but instead it just makes me laugh.

Maybe tomorrow I'll come up with something original rather than ripping off the work of yet another creator!
