Yes, I'm not dead, I've still been frequenting SMB, I just haven't exactly been posting much. But that aside, I'd like to tell you all about the latest addition to the all-too-many abridged series on YouTube.
See, a while ago, a friend of mine came to me and suggested we make an abridged Ranma 1/2. Now, I know there are far too many abridged series on YouTube as it is, but it sounded fun, so I decided to help. Logically, this meant cleaning up all the scripts (they needed the help), doing all the editing (he only turned to me for my video editing programs), and maybe doing a few voices (I have a very distinctive voice, so it's hard to mask it with too many characters).
So, after a hard day of work, we finally came up with the trailer:

So we put the episode on hold as we contacted a few of our friends, and put out a casting call for the other female voices we'd be unable to do:

We're not trying to make any sort of big hit, and there are other abridged Ranma series out there, but we put a lot of work into what we do, and I'm proud of the results, so if we can make some people laugh, then it'll be a success in my eyes. Hope you all enjoy!
PS. The voices I do so far are: the narrator who was fired in episode 1, Kuno, Genma (human form), and eventually Ryoga and Principal Kuno.
