Ukyou was walking down the street carrying some okonomiyaki for Ranma.
Then someone comes out of the sky and attacks her.
Kodachi was feeding Midorigame. Someone comes and attacks her too.
On the way home from school Akane gets attacked by Linlin and Ranran.
They had come from China because they never received word that Ranma
and Shampoo got married. They heard that Ranma had many "fiancees",
so they decided to get rid of them. They said that they easily defeated
the other two before attacking Akane.
Linlin and Ranran told Akane their story about beating up Ukyou and Kodachi.
Actually Ukyou and Kodachi did not get beaten up. Then Linlin and Ranran
said that it was Akane's turn now.
While Akane was fighting against Linlin and Ranran, Ranma comes by
and asks Akane what is going on. Akane says that this problem with
Shampoo and Linlin and Ranran is none of her business, so she leaves
it all to Ranma. When Linlin and Ranran try to go after Akane, Ranma
stops them. Then Ranma tells them that he doesn't like Akane.
Since Akane had said many times that she is not interested in Ranma,
Linlin and Ranran conclude that Ranma likes them.
Then Ryouga appears, yelling at Ranma. He tries to attack Ranma,
but Linlin and Ranran step in to stop Ryouga. Then Ranma runs away
leaving Ryouga to deal with Linlin and Ranran. Linlin and Ranran use
the Joketsuzoku secret technique "fushichou dairanbu" to defeat Ryouga.
Linlin and Ranran send a letter of challenge to Akane, who was practicing
in her yard. They said that they had captured Ranma, and that if Akane
loses she must give up on Ranma forever. Then Ryouga struggles into
the Tendo yard. He falls in front of Akane. Shampoo's great-grandmother
appears and looks at Ryouga's wounds. She says that it is the doings of
the "fushichou dairanbu" technique. Then Linlin and Ranran give the
"kiss of death" to Akane.
Akane goes to meet Linlin and Ranran. They start to fight. Meanwhile,
Ranma was eating a feast prepared by Linlin and Ranran behind some bushes.
In the fight, Linlin and Ranran use the "fushichou dairanbu" technique.
It turns out to be just a wooden model airplane shaped like a bird.
The plane crashes and Akane beats up Linlin and Ranran.
Linlin and Ranran fix the plane and try again. They start to throw some
egg gas bombs at Akane. But Akane grabs a stick and starts hitting the
eggs back. One hit the plane and it crashes again. Then the real
"fushichou" appears. It turns out to be a giant billboard with a shape
of a bird in flames. Linlin and Ranran are scared at the top of the
billboard because of the height. Then the billboard starts to fall.
It misses everybody, except Soun and Genma.
Shampoo's great-grandmother says that Akane is the winner. But Akane
says that she never wanted to marry Ranma in the first place.
