Shampoo will debut in episode 10 of the new Ranma 1/2 anime remake. Shampoo is one of the inhabitants of the Chinese Amazon village, also known as Joketsuzoku in the original Japanese version, as well as one of Ranma Saotome’s three fiancés.
Episode 10 is named “Kiss of Death” and it will release on December 7, 2024 in Japan. Mappa released a preview teaser on YouTube showcasing Shampoo’s new design. The video doesn’t include any dialogue and only features music from the anime. You can check it out here:
Japanese voice actress Rei Sakuma reprises her role as Shampoo in the new 2024 remake of Ranma 1/2 and is also known for her roles as Momo Karuizawa in the fighting game Project Justice, Mariemaia Khushrenada in the Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz OVA anime, and My Melody in the Onegai My Melody anime based on the Sanrio character by the same name.
As a reminder, Mappa recently shared a new version of the main key visual of the Ranma 1/2 remake featuring Akane sporting her short hair design, as well as sharing the new creditless version of the ending theme song also featuring Akane’s new hairstyle.
The 2024 remake of the Ranma 1/2 anime is readily available on Netflix. Viz Media handles the manga outside Japan.
