More Shampoo! More love rivals! More action! More RanmaxAkane! Let's even throw in a Romeo & Juliet performance and a beach episode!

I can't wait!

That's a funny coincidence, I was just listening to Wo Ai Ni from Gintama earlier today lol

What is up with the english on that second video btw... O_o Is it some AI generated dub or something?

It seems Netflix uploaded the trailer dubbed into other languages and in the Latin American dub Mousse, Happosai and Cologne's original dub VAs reprised their roles, though Ukyo is being voiced by a new VA, despite the fact that her original VA is still active and I don't think it's due to Ukyo herself having a new voice in Japanese due to Hiromi Tsuru's passing some years ago, considering that Happosai and Cologne have new voices in Japanese as well. But I cannot complain, I'm not in charge of the casting decisions.

Means "I love you" in Mandarin, Shampoo says it sometimes.

I think it's to do your default audio settings, which are carrying over into embedded videos. I sometimes hear Japanese voice overs since I chose the JP audio for Milky Subway.

I remember one of the chapter titles of the Viz translation of the manga being called "Wo ai ni" too because of Shampoo's use. That's how I first learned the phrase.

I think it might have come up in Fushigi Yuugi, too.

Whoever made that key visual deserves a raise because it's perfect.
