I am reading the manga at the moment, they've been reissuing it and I've just finished volume 28. It is very funny at times, though it does feel like it went on for too long in the end (still got 10 volumes to go!). Always like Ranma's father as a panda, and Ryoga's cluelessness.

Maison Ikkoku is my favourite Takahashi manga, maybe as it's the only one that didn't go on too long!
