Netflix has announced an October 5th premiere date for a new anime adaptation produced by MAPPA entitled Ranma 1/2. Viz Media has previously announced that they had licensed the series for North America and now we know that Iyuno will be handling the English dub duties.

The action comedy series follows a teenager named Ranma Saotome who has trained in martial arts since early childhood. As a result of an accident during a training journey, he is cursed to become a girl when exposed to cold water, while hot water changes him back into a boy. Throughout the series Ranma seeks out a way to rid himself of his curse, while his friends, enemies, and many fiancées constantly hinder and interfere.
