Ranma 1/2: Chougi Ranbu Hen English translation
らんま1/2 超技乱舞篇
Dynamic-Designs' English translation of the Japan-only Ranma ½ fighting game, which can be paired with a later hack that makes it run at a steady 60 fps.
What's translated
The patch puts the game's story text, character dialogue and menus into English, and it is listed as fully playable.
Framerate improvement
The original game was designed for 60 frames per second but constantly drops well below it. In 2024 upsilandre released a separate optimization hack that keeps it at a stable 60 fps, cuts input lag, fixes the round timer's speed and corrects many collision bugs. It was made compatible with this translation and must be applied before it; see its own page.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese Super Famicom cartridge, following the instructions on the patch's romhacking.net page, the official page for this release.
