No, I would not consider it a Magical Girl anime. There's more to being a Magical Girl anime than simply containing a female character and magic, somewhere in the course of the story.

Magical Girl anime tend to star a female (or multiple) character, who weilds magic. Usually there are transformations involved, or "power/level ups." There's typically a good vs. evil element, with clearly defined sides, and very often more magic.

Think about Sailor Moon, CCS, Magic Knight Rayearth, Wedding Peach... They have very common themes to Magical Girl anime, all of them. Ranma lacks those same themes.

As to where it should be placed? I'd say comedy, most likely, but on this forum that will be under "General" Anime.

Closed.
