Summary
An English translation of the Super Famicom fighting game Ranma 1/2: Chougiranbuhen. The completed patch grew from Filler's longstanding interest in the game and complements an older site devoted to its moves, character descriptions, manual, and visual reference material.

Release
The English translation was released on April 1, 2018. The patch translates the script and the game's extensive Japanese text graphics.
Related historical material
Filler maintained a separate Chougiranbuhen reference site from at least 2004, itself reconstructed in part from an earlier archived version. Surviving blog entries document translated character descriptions, special-move notation, manual scans, and stage-background work. This material should be retained as a companion guide rather than folded invisibly into the patch page.
Preservation notes
The patch package was not found locally, but portions of the older Ranma guide survive under the recovered main-site files and may have additional assets elsewhere in the old root directory. The guide warrants a separate completeness audit before publication.
