Someone on Twitter was kind enough to send me a photo of the "preview" manga for Ranma 1/2 they're giving out at NYCC this weekend:

She told me the art was unflopped and the Japanese sound effects appeared to be intact, so I'm assuming this means the actual release will be the same as well. Viz also had panels specifically for Ranma, where they talked about how originally it was released in the monthly "floppies", how they had to use PHOTOS of the Japanese manga to make pages instead of getting the physical original copies, etc. They also confirmed that the anime will be released in hi-def in 4:3, the original aspect ratio, with no cropping to the picture for both the DVD and blu-ray.
That's all the info I got from their live-tweeting. I kinda hope someone was able to take video of the panels and might upload it later, since I'm curious to hear what else they might've discussed.
