         It all began with a training trip to the Cursed Springs of Jusenkyo in China. Unfortunately for Ranma, his father Genma wasn't one to know the language of the land before practicing aerial martial arts above its famed cursed springs (as the name suggested). So, with Genma's lucky kick and a loud splash followed by a louder scream, Ranma discovered that he would forever turn into a girl -- a very cute redhead at that -- whenever splashed with cold water.
        Two weeks later, the hapless Saotomes found themselves on the doorstep of the Anything-  Goes-Martial-Arts dojo, owned and maintained by the Tendo family -- Genma's best friend Soun and his daughters, Kasumi, Nabiki, and Akane. As the crew gets settled in their newly insane life, plot themes include: Ranma's search for a cure, the path to becoming a more powerful and varied martial artist, the introduction of many, many more characters (including new fiancees) and of course, the Ranma and Akane love story....

Nabiki: Because you hate boys, don't you? Kasumi: So you're in luck Akane! He's half girl! Akane: Me? Marry that pervert?! Never!  Ranma: Hey! Whaddya mean -- pervert? Akane: You saw me in the nude, you lech! Ranma: Hold it. Just a second. You walked in on me! Akane: Oh yeah? Well, it's different when a girl sees a boy!  Soun: See? They're the perfect couple already. Wahahaha! Akane: He's a couple by himself! There's no way in the world I could marry someone like that! Ranma: Oh yeah? My sentiments exactly! Good bye! Genma: Where are you going, boy?  Ranma: Back to China! I have to find a way to change back for good. This is no time for fiancees.  Akane: .....  Ranma: By the way, (looking Akane up and down) You took a pretty good look at me too. Besides, it's no big deal for me to see a naked girl. I mean, I've seen myself plenty of times, right? And I'm better built to boot.... ah hahahahah -- AIEIGH!! (Akane slams him to the floor with a table)
