"What did you say!" "?" "Akane...?" "She left and hasn't come back." "How..." "How did this happen!" "?" "There was a rash of food thefts in the neighborhood lately..." "Two sisters, Natsume and Kurumi, were behind them." "It smells so good!" "A-And then!" "?" "They had no place to go, so we asked them to stay at our home." "But it seems that they may be Father's illegitimate daughters." "What!" "?" "The old man's an adulterer!" "?" "Kasumi!" "Don't spread strange rumors about your father." "Father, hurry!" "Papa!" "Coming." "Well, Ryoga, see you." "Then the question came up, who would carry on the Tendo Dojo?" "To decide it, Akane and Ranma fought Natsume and Kurumi." "Ranma fought, too!" "?" "Yes." "But he couldn't touch either of them." "Ranma!" "Now, Ranma is out looking for Akan..." "Ryoga..." "Thanks for the souvenirs!" "What's the meaning of this, Akane?" "You got a reason for calling us out here?" "Akane challenge both of us at same time!" "She got nerve." "Stop talking and fight!" "If you insist!" "I fight!" "You all right, Akane?" "You hang in there, Akane." "I can fight!" "Don't waste your strength." "I'll never get the Dojo back at this rate." "So you lost the Dojo?" "They were about the same age as me..." "No matter what I did, I couldn't touch them." "I can't believe it." "So you challenge us to test strength?" "I'm sorry." "Akane, you silly girl." "There's no need for apologies." "We're your friends, right?" "Friends help each other when in trouble." "We help you, now." "Thanks, Ukyo, Shampoo!" "Now that Akane's not inheriting the family Dojo..." "Her engagement with Ranma is all but over!" "I pretend to train Akane then finish her off." "Then Shampoo take place as Ranma's bride!" "This is the chance of a lifetime!" "Let's do it, Akane!" "You defeat those sisters!" "Uhhh..." "Ukyo!" "Don't you think you're overdoing it..." "Can't do this halfway!" "You'll never beat those sisters as you are now!" "Ukyo!" "Behind you!" "What?" "Watch where you throw things, Shampoo!" "You trying to kill ME, too!" "?" "Shampoo marry Ranma." "I get rid of any obstacles." "Umm..." "I'M gonna be Ranma-honey's bride!" "What you talking!" "?" "Ranma belong Shampoo!" "So much for female friendships..." "Father?" "Kasumi!" "Is Akane still missing?" "I found her!" "She's two blocks away!" "Somebody spotted her in a vacant lot!" "Vacant lot?" "I'm home!" "Father, where are you going?" "For some cigarettes!" "I bought you some." "Geez!" "Akane's so stupid!" "She didn't havta run away from home!" "If she'd just left it to me, I coulda beaten 'em no problem." "That's where you're wrong, Ranma!" "Pop..." "At your level of training, you could never beat those two." "Now what're you talkin' about!" "?" "Don't you get it, Ranma?" "You don't understand your female self!" "My female self?" "Others forced you to change, or you only used it as a tool." "Then..." "Listen, Ranma!" "You have to face your female self head on!" "Until you fathom its true nature, you can't defeat your enemy!" "I see." "I get it, Pops." "Once in a while, you almost make sense." "Of course I do." "I've accepted my own change." "I take back any compliments I said." "Father!" "Kurumi, do you know where Father is?" "He said he was going out for cigarettes." "Cigarettes?" "So, Akane, there's no reason for you to run away." "Please come home!" "I have a reason!" "I lost!" "Until I can defeat those two, I can't come back to the Dojo." "Akane!" "Akane." "Kasumi!" "There's no need for you to overdo it." "I've brought you a few things you might need." "Thanks, Kasumi." "Akane!" "Father." "Akane will be just fine." "You're always so kind, Kasumi!" "Akane, good luck!" "I, Ryoga Hibiki, shall pray for your victory from the shadows." "Wait a minute." "If Akane wins, she's still engaged to Ranma!" "I don't want to see her lose!" "But if she wins, she and Ranma..." "What am I gonna do!" "?" "Hi, Ryoga!" "Akane!" "L-I wasn't spying on you or anything!" "l-I had some free time and t-thought I'd go out for a walk!" "This is perfect!" "Could you come with me?" "Will you help me train?" "I can't seem to do it on my own." "S-Sure!" "I'd be happy to!" "There is some truth in what the Old Man said." "Can't deny that as a girl, I'm just not as strong." "Until I compensate for it, I can't beat those two as a girl." "Go for it, brats!" "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire!" "Yep, gotta use speed more than strength!" "...24, 25 26, 27, 28..." "Akane, keep it up!" "That's good, Akane!" "Keep your arms in!" "Tighter!" "Put some strength into it!" "Revenge?" "That may be an exaggeration." "But it looks like she's going to come back soon." "She's gonna challenge us to a rematch!" "It doesn't matter what she does, we'll fight her or anybody..." "We practice to defend our rights as the heirs to the Tendo Dojo!" "Yeah, about that..." "Is that man really our father?" "What are you saying?" "Father proved it by signing his name on the back of the photo!" "There's no mistake!" "So let's practice!" "We have to protect the Tendo Dojo!" "Ranma..." "Y-Yo." "Are you training?" "Yeah, I figured I'd work on my girl side or I might lose a win-a-ble fight." "So what are you doin' out here?" "I thought that maybe I'd tighten my moves a little." "It looks like I sort of let myself go." "I..." "I..." "What is it?" "Ranma." "You go first." "I, uh..." "I think we should try it again." "If we combined forces..." "Akane!" "I'm sorry!" "I overslept, so I chased after you." "To think that I found you!" "I must have a guardian angel!" "Ranma?" "It looks like you're havin' a good time training'!" "What's that?" "You wouldn't be jealous, would you?" "J-Jealous?" "No one would get jealous over YOU!" "My training' has nothin' to do with the Dojo, or engagements!" "I'm just training as a martial artist!" "That's all!" "Let's go, Ryoga." "Akane, you're holding my hand..." "Geez." "How uncute can you get..." "That's it!" "I quit!" "Why the heck do I gotta fight as a girl anyway!" "?" "It's stupid!" "You've got the wrong idea, Ranma!" "You gain nothing by giving up your training!" "And what about your obligation to the Tendos?" "Got nothin' to do with this!" "And those sisters may really be Mr. Tendo's daughters!" "But, Ranma!" "You may be right about the daughter thing..." "But if you break your engagement, our free room and board..." "Ranma..." "Akane!" "I'm not good enough to be your trainer." "Even when I'm training you, I can't help but hope you lose." "Farewell, Akane." "I'm going off on a long journey, to clear my mind." "How mature I am!" "This is destiny." "I challenge you!" "Akane!" "Akane, it seems you've matured while you were gone!" "Natsume." "Let's trade places." "Let me fight." "I want to finish off Akane one-on-one." "Okay." "Do your best." "I will!" "Natsume!" "A martial artist can never avoid the path of battle." "But I don't wanna see this fight!" "Fight until a knockout!" "Winner takes the Tendo Dojo." "No time limit;" "a one-round match!" "Fight!" "I can do this!" "We're evenly matched!" "You're good!" "You've improved so much in such a short time!" "What's wrong, Kurumi!" "?" "Hurry up and finish her!" "Akane!" "Kurumi!" "Change places with me!" "Natsume!" "No!" "You can't just trade places in the middle of a..." "My sister and I are of one mind and one body!" "If I let Kurumi down, I can't call myself her sister!" "Hold it!" "As heir to the Saotome School of Anything-Goes Martial Arts I, Ranma, have come to fight for Akane, as honor demands!" "Ranma!" "Ranma!" "Ranma!" "Two-on-two ain't a problem, is it?" "I'm gonna get you back twice for what you did before!" "I'll allow you to lose again!" "Kurumi!" "Here she comes!" "Lemme take her!" "Look out!" "What an incredible combination!" "And look at our side!" "Hey!" "Get with it, Ranma!" "Ranma!" "That was so sweet!" "You took that blow for Akane!" "Did you come home just to get in my way!" "?" "Who's gettin' in WHOSE way?" "This goes beyond simple hatred!" "Don't get me wrong!" "I'm not here to fight with you!" "Your tricks only work once!" "And not against my new speed!" "Natsume!" "Now!" "Anything-Goes Secret Attack!" "Ring of Dragon Fire!" "Akane, this is it!" "Quick, run into the spiral!" "Trust me!" "New and Improved!" "Flying Dragon Ascension Wave!" "Horizontal Blast!" "Akane, go!" "Akane!" "The whirlwind of the Ascension Wave is canceling out the Ring of Dragon Fire's whirlpool effect!" "There's not enough power in the Horizontal Blast!" "This is nothing!" "Right!" "Lightning Splits Attack!" "AKA:" "Double Kick!" "We won!" "Kurumi!" "What the heck is this?" "What!" "?" "The Anything-Goes Martial Arts logo on this gi..." "What's going on!" "?" "I was airing out my martial arts gi on the roof..." "Master!" "What is this!" "?" "That's the jacket I wore as a young man!" "What memories!" "An ambitious youth traveling all over Japan." "That's right, I have a photo..." "See?" "AAAAAAAAAAAAH!" "Th-Then the man in the picture is the old letch!" "How!" "?" "How can they mistake him for me!" "?" "I guess as time passes, you remember only the good things." "Then you used Soun Tendo's name and tricked two little girls!" "?" "What insults!" "All I wanted was to give two poor orphans a reason to live!" "I wonder what the sisters are doing now?" "We're those two orphans..." "How sweet!" "After all these years!" "I'm your father, Soun Tendo!" "DIE!" "I'll miss you!" "You said it." "Do you really have to go?" "Life is training." "When we're good enough never to shame Anything-Goes Martial Arts, we'll come again to prove our skills." "I'll be waiting!" "Dry up an' die, old man!" "Then we'll meet again!" "You bet!" "And next time, we won't lose." "I'll look forward to it!" "Take care of yourselves!" "Farewell." "Thank you, Ranma, for saving me." "Sorry about before." "So you admit it." "You shoulda just let me handle 'em." "We couldn't have won if I hadn't figured out their technique." "What are you saying?" "I had to be there to finish them off!" "Hey!" "What?" "You are so uncute!"
