Who is this fine Purple Haired Goddess!?

Shampoo and Cat Shampoo!Shampoo is the purple haired goddess that's Ranma's other fiancee. Yep, count em, three Fiancee trying to fight for Ranma. Shampoo is the most dangerous of these Fiancee's. I mean she'll use tricks on everything. She uses some soaps and pressure points. A guy really really likes her, drooling at every chance and would do anything for her.

How it all started

Akane and Ranma-chan are sitting in a ice-cream store. Ranma has never eaten any "cute" ice-cream (parfait, sundaes) before, because he was a boy. Now, she is hogging them down like a pig. The building shakes, and Shampoo comes breaking through the wall. She starts to try killing Ranma. Ranma hides inside a locker, and Akane tells Shampoo that Ranma ran away. Shampoo goes out after Ranma. Ranma tells Akane about what happened in China. [same as manga] They go home, and they see Shampoo waiting for them. Ranma accidently knocks out Shampoo and Shampoo kisses him. [same as manga] Shampoo shows them the book which has the customs of her tribe, Nabiki reads it for them, Ranma tries to tell Shampoo that she shouldn't just follow the rules.... [same as manga] Ryouga splashes cold water on Ranma-kun to turn him into a girl. Shampoo chases after Ranma-chan and tries to kill her. Nabiki pours hot water on Ranma-chan to turn him into a boy. She says that it will cost him 2000 yen. Shampoo then chases Ranma-kun and tries to hug him. Ryouga splashes Ranma with cold water again.. Nabiki calls Ranma-chan and tries to get 5000 yen...!The next day Akane goes to wake up Ranma. She finds Shampoo in bed with him. She splashes cold water on him. Shampoo chases Ranma-chan around. Then Ranma turns himself into a boy. Shampoo now chases Ranma-kun. Akane gets mad. During lunch time at school, Shampoo comes and brings Ranma lunch. The lunch is P-chan! Akane grabs P-chan and tries to save him. Shampoo then gives Akane the kiss of death. Akane and Shampoo fight and Ranma finds Akane lying down on the ground. Ranma wakes her up. But Akane doesn't remember Ranma at all. Ranma turns himself into a girl, but Akane just calls him a fag. Akane and Ranma go to Tofu-sensei's place, and they discover that Shampoo had used the "Saifuatsuhengou" method to erase Akane's memory of Ranma. Ranma then grabs Akane and they go looking for Shampoo. Akane still doesn't remember Ranma. Akane and Ranma walk home from Tofu-sensei's house. At home Akane jokingly says that she doesn't remember her father. Also, Shampoo shows up and hugs Ranma. Akane instinctively hits Ranma. So deep down, Akane still remembers something about Ranma. Shampoo tries to use the 110 formula to make Akane completely forget Ranma. Ranma blocks her and grabs the 110 formula. He grabs Akane and washes her hair with it. But it doesn't help in recovering her memory. Tofu-sensei comes and tells them that they need the 119 formula to make someone remember again. Then Ranma decides to go to China to get the 119 formula. On the way, Shampoo then shows Ranma that she has the 119 formula. She won't give it to him. But he tells Shampoo that he will do one favor for her in exchange for it. Shampoo then says that she wants Ranma-kun to kill Ranma-chan. (Shampoo doesn't know that Ranma-kun and Ranma-chan are the same person) Ranma then begs Ryouga to beat him up. But Ryouga says that he won't. Then they argue and they fight. But Ranma ends up winning. Akane's father and Ranma's father (as the Panda) then comes to beat up Ranma. Akane comes in and tells her father to stop it. Then Akane and Ranma start arguing. When Ranma says "Kawaikune-", Akane has a reaction. So Akane's father tells Ranma to say more. Eventually Akane remembers everything about Ranma and hits him. Shampoo then comes in. She sees that Akane had gotten her memory back and tries to kill her. But Ranma stops her. Shampoo asks why. Ranma then shows Shampoo the truth about himself. Shampoo says that she will kill her when she sees Ranma-chan. She starts attacking Ranma-chan, but before landing the final blow, she has tears in her eyes and says bye and runs away. A timid Shampoo

Special Techniques

BonBori attack-She uses her BonBori to attack the hell outta someone
Kiss of Death-Explained
Bicycle attack-she usually hits somebody with her bike. I mean she'll use her bike to be on somebody then start peddling.
Remote Control Acupressure-When Shampoo presses a pressure point and they do as she bids

Special tricks up Shampoo's Sleaves.


Nannichuan mix- Shampoo demonstrates a packet of Nanniichuan mix, an onsen mix of the Choushuanshan niichuan series, which turns ordinary water to Nanniichuan water, and offers it to Ranma if he goes on a date with her. The mix cures Ranma and Genma temporarily, but it's a cheap imitation that only works once.
  • Came from story Episode 12

    Water Proof Soap- Shampoo's water-proof soap slips away and accidentally ends up in Ryouga's possession, curing him, and later Akane and Ryouga dates, cuz Ryouga's delighted he doesn't turn into a pig (and later cures Genma, in the manga). Shampoo and Ranma spend a 5-part story trying to get it back, only to discover the cure is temporary.
  • Came from story episode 43

    Ghost Cat Bell- Shampoo gives Ranma a bell that possess a ghost in it. The ghosts goes to Akane and asks her to be his wife. Akane goes into Ranma's room and beats him up telling him not to scare her. Ranma doesn't know what she's talking about until the bell starts floating in the air. Ranma chases it and it turns out to be a white cat, both the ghost and Ranma are scared of each other. When Shampoo comes back the next morning for the Ramen drop off, the bell goes to Shampoo and asks her to be his wife, she kicks it and says she and Ranma are going out. The ghost gets mad and attacks Ranma, Ranma tries to escape cuz of the cat form but luckily got one punch in. It says it has a special technique and possess Genma for a minute thinking a son would never attack his own father (hehe), so Ranma beats Genma to a pulp and the ghost says he will not go after Shampoo again. Shampoo thanks Ranma but Ranma says he doesn't like her, so she throws Ranma and a bell in the Tendou pond. The ghost chases Ranma-Chan for a while then Ranma turns into a cat and kicks the crap out of the ghost. The ghost says he doesn't want a violent woman to marry him.

    Red String of Love- According to legend, the little fingers of two people who are destined for true love are bound by an invisible red string. Shampoo buys a magic red string from a Chinese salesman. If the red string is tied around your finger and another person's for five hours, that person will love you forever. Of course, she ties it to Ranma...
  • This story came from Episode 65

    Turn around Jewel- A magic happy/angry-face brooch. When it is worn to look like a happy face, your love abounds. But when worn upside-down like an angry face, love turns to hatred.
  • This story came from OAV series 1

    Others are tools that are treasures of Shampoo's family.

    Ten Reasons from me and other people would be crazy not to like Shampoo

    10) she's so kawaii
    9) She's kawaii as a cat
    8) She wears the cutest outfit
    7) She's an exotic woman
    6) She's soooooo smart
    5) She can cook, and especially noodles/ramen/mien.
    4) She got really kew stuff, I mean, wouldn't you like some of her potions or jewlery
    3) She know's Kung Fu.
    2) Like the Shampoo Shrine, she jumps in bed, or anywhere even though she's not wanted or asked.
    1) She's Shampoo!!!!!!!!

    Anything else???

    Mousse is the man that's obsessed as Shampoo loves Ranma. See the diagram that I worked out

    loveslovesloves,er hate, er well

    This is my analysis. See how cleverly this chart was worked out? hehehe. What else, she really likes Ranma is all I know. He has a phobia of cats, so Shampoo keeps searching for a cure for herself and Ranma. She has every trick up her sleeves. I mean she got formula's, special soaps, got traps, etc etc.
