| ShortSummary    = In Tokyo during the 1980s, the Martial Arts Tendo Dojo houses Soun Tendo along with his three daughters: the eldest Kasumi, the middle Nabiki, and the youngest Akane. Mr. Tendo informs them that one of them is going to marry Ranma Saotome, the son of his friend Genma. The father and son duo have been on a training journey for many years, where they perfect their martial arts skills, with their latest trip taking them to China. However, the Tendos are met by a panda and a girl who introduces herself as Ranma Saotome. Akane shows Ranma around and has a quick sparring match with her, wanting to befriend their visitor, until she goes off to take a hot bath, and witnesses Ranma transform into the man that her father was expecting, freighting her. After she calms down, the panda, revealed to be Ranma's father Genma, explains that two weeks ago, during their training journey in China, they traveled to the legendary and dangerous training ground of Jusenkyo. The training ground is rarely visited due to over a hundred cursed springs being there, each having its own tragic legend. Each spring had a human or a creature that drowned there thousands of years ago, and a person who falls into the cursed spring takes the physical body of who or what drowned there. During their training fight Genma and Ranma fall into the Spring of Drowned Panda and Spring of Drowned Girl respectively, taking the forms of a panda and a young girl. The curse functions as an on/off switch, with hot water reversing their transformations and cold water triggering it back. Soun, Kasumi and Nabiki all decide to nominate Akane as Ranma's bride, due to her being a martial artist herself and having a hatred of men (Ranma being a half-girl fixing that problem in their eyes). Both Ranma and Akane protest against the engagement despite having similar personalities.

| ShortSummary    = Ranma is told by Genma to start attending Furinkan High School, which Akane & her sister Nabiki currently go to. En route, Ranma is splashed by cold water and is taken by Akane to Dr. Tofu's clinic (a local chiropractor) to get hot water, whom Akane also happens to have a crush on. Upon arriving at Furinkan High, Akane is ambushed by most of the male students at the school, all of whom she defeats swiftly in battle. She is then confronted by upperclassmen Tatewaki Kuno, the captain of the school's Kendo Club with a crush on Akane. Upon discovering Ranma's engagement with Akane, he furiously challenges him to a battle, one in which Ranma is able to overpower Kuno. Akane later explains that Kuno challenged the male student body to fighting Akane, saying that whomsoever defeats her, gets to date her. Later during a rematch between Ranma & Kuno, Ranma transforms and Kuno ends up falling in love with his female form. He confesses to Ranma in his female form (whom he refers to as "the pigtailed girl"), not realizing that she and Ranma are the same person.

| ShortSummary    = Nabiki, upon learning Kuno's infatuation with both Akane and Ranma's female form, uses this opportunity to earn some cash. She secretly takes photos of Ranma in his girl form and Akane and sells them to Kuno. Despite Ranma's efforts, Kuno is too dumb-witted to put two-and-two together and realize that Ranma and the "pigtailed girl" are the same person. As Kuno's intention to two-time both Akane and the "pigtailed girl" reaches the ears of the student body of Furinkan High, the male students who previously used to battle Akane in order to win her permission to date them, abandon their pursuits. During a visit to Dr. Tofu's clinic after Akane inflicted an injury on Ranma in her anger, Ranma learns that Dr. Tofu already has a crush on Akane's older sister Kasumi, something which has been troubling Akane for a long time. Shortly thereafter, Ranma has a sprain in his leg and is unable to walk. Akane offers to give him a piggyback ride and Ranma refuses, thinking that it is too embarrassing for a guy to be given a piggyback by a girl. Hearing this, Akane turns Ranma into a girl and carries him home, making Ranma realize that despite Akane's violent tendencies, she is a pure-hearted person, making him fall for her more.

| ShortSummary    = One morning at Furinkan High, Ranma is ambushed by Ryoga Hibiki, a martial artist who wants revenge against Ranma, although Ranma doesn't seem to recognize him. Ryoga later explains that he and Ranma used to attend an all-boys middle school together (which Ranma only attended for a short time due to his ongoing training). There, Ryoga challenged Ranma to a fight but Ranma failed to show up, fueling Ryoga's desire for a revenge. Ranma recalls this and explains that he waited at the agreed-upon place for the fight for 3 days, but due to Ryoga's extreme lack of orientation and direction sense, he ended up reaching there on the fourth day, by the time which Ranma had already left. Ten days later, Ryoga challenges Ranma to a fight again, wanting to settle their unfinished score. During the fight, Ryoga learns of Ranma's curse, something which makes him even more enraged at Ranma. Akane & Ranma also end up having an argument with each other in the middle of the fight, leading to Ryoga's missed attack chopping off Akane's long hair.

| ShortSummary    = A stunned Akane leaves the area without another word to Ranma or Ryoga. Via flashbacks, it is explained that the reason Akane grew out her hair to such a length was due to her desire to imitate Kasumi and appear more feminine towards Dr. Tofu, thinking that her tomboy nature would discourage Dr. Tofu from liking her. Akane ends up completely breaking down at a visit at Dr. Tofu's clinic, finally confessing her feelings toward him. Finally feeling like she can move on, Akane heads home with her spirits high. En route, Ranma apologizes to Akane for his behavior earlier and unintentionally discovers a more playful nature of Akane's personality. That night, Ryoga, still hungry for revenge against Ranma, sneaks into the Tendo residence in the middle of a storm. He is quickly forced to flee however, and Ranma speculates that Ryoga may also have fallen in a cursed spring at Jusenkyo. At home, Akane finds a black piglet in her room, shivering from the cold, which she decides to adopt as a pet. She asks Ranma to give the pig a hot water bath, which Ranma agrees to. Ranma then sees the pig transform into Ryoga upon being immersed in hot water. Ryoga then explains that while he was at China, he was knocked into the Spring of Drowned Black Piglet by a girl (Ranma in his female form) chasing a panda (Genma), explaining his rage towards Ranma upon learning that he was that girl. Before he can attack Ranma, Ranma turns Ryoga into a pig again and chases him around the hallway. Akane stops him and takes the pig to her room to sleep with her (not knowing that it is Ryoga). This continued affection from Akane leads to Ryoga falling hopelessly in love with her.

The team appeals to Akane to fill in for them as they believe only she can take on the yet-to-be-defeated Kodachi, to which Akane agrees. That night, Kodachi breaks into the Tendo Dojo, wanting to swiftly eliminate Akane before the upcoming match. Kodachi fails to do so, but before leaving, she encounters and desperately falls in love with Ranma. The next morning, Kodachi declares to Akane that Ranma will be the prize in their upcoming gymnastics battle. They also learn that Kodachi is the younger sister of upperclassman Kuno. Akane trains for the upcoming match with help from Ranma and Ryoga, as her abilities at rhythmic gymnastics improve gradually. The night before the match however, Akane ends up tripping and injuring her leg, leaving her unable to compete. With no last-minute substitute available, Ranma is (unwillingly) turned into his female form by Ryoga in order to fill in for Akane.

Ranma however, doesn't let Ryoga get the upper hand and trains with him all night long. On the day of the match, Ranma is extremely sleep-deprived and Kodachi keeps using unlawful ways to sabotage Ranma during the match. Ranma however, is able to gain the upper hand and turn the tide of the battle on Kodachi and win. Kodachi however, chooses to continue her pursuit of Ranma, which she terms is now fueled by a new, burning passion, much to Ranma's dismay.

| ShortSummary    = After a trip to the local ice-skating rink, Akane loses P-Chan (the name that she has given her pet pig, unaware that it is really Ryoga). As she begs Ranma to help him look for her, Ranma finds P-Chan in the possession of a young girl named Azuza Shiratori, a kleptomaniac who is obsessed with stealing and possessing various objects as her own. Mikado Sanzenin returns P-Chan to Akane and attempts to make advances on her, irritating Ranma. Seeing this, Mikado challenges Ranma & Akane to a martial arts figure skating match, in which the winner will get to keep P-Chan. The two also learn that Mikado & Azuza are the famed "Golden Pair" of Kolkhoz High School, which have separated every couple in skating matches thus far. While training for said match, Ranma, inefficient at ice skating, trains with Akane in his female form (considering it too embarrassing for a guy to be bad at ice skating), before being picked up and kissed by Mikado, humiliating Ranma as his first kiss is stolen by a boy. Back at home, while patching up Ranma's injuries, Akane dares Ranma to kiss her, to which they almost do, before being interrupted by the Tendo family, who were watching in high anticipation.

During the fight, Ranma & Akane fare off well against the Golden Pair, even surviving their dreaded "Couple Break-Up Spin" attack. Ryoga (who has been so far chained to the trophy in his pig form), turns back into his human form. In an effort to remove Ranma from the match and partner up with Akane and win her over, Ryoga turns Ranma into a girl (after dimming the lights) only to accidentally end up sending Akane to the crowd and getting paired up with Ranma. The fight resumes with Ryoga & Ranma facing off against Mikado & Azuza, but their rivalry and fighting gets in the way of their cooperation. Ryoga, angered by Ranma's taunts about always wanting to impress Akane, ends up breaking the ice rink, causing it to split into various flat icebergs.

Ryoga however, wanting to settle the score with Ranma then and there, starts fighting with him in the middle of the broken rink. Akane ends up interfering, demanding to know the reason for their intense rivalry, but the ice beneath her breaks, causing Akane (who doesn't know how to swim) to drown in the frozen lake, as Ranma and Ryoga jump into the water to save her.  Akane wakes up in an infirmary later with Ranma, her friends and P-Chan. Suddenly, a Chinese Amazon by the name of Shampoo breaks the wall and infiltrates, intending to kill Ranma. Ranma narrowly survives and explains later to Akane about his history with Shampoo. After getting inflicted with the Jusenkyo curse, Ranma and Genma wandered around in China in their cursed forms. There, they encountered a local Chinese Amazon Tribe of Women battling in martial arts for dominance. After Ranma ended up accidentally eating the feast that was Shampoo's first prize, causing her to challenge Ranma. The battle ended with Ranma swiftly defeating Shampoo, who then gave Ranma the "Kiss of Death" - a promise to hunt Ranma down to the ends of the earth and kill him for dishonoring a Chinese Amazon. Ranma (in his male form) and Akane return home, only to find that Shampoo followed Genma to the Tendo Dojo. Wanting to know about Ranma's whereabouts, Shampoo attacks Akane, leading to Ranma stepping in to protect Akane, and defeating Shampoo again (this time in his male form). Ranma expects to get another Kiss of Death, only to be kissed lovingly by Shampoo, much to everyone's shock.

However, if the outsider is a man, then the Amazon must marry that man. Shampoo immediately starts fawning over Ranma, much to the anger and dismay of Akane, who furiously declares that her engagement to Ranma is cancelled. While Akane wonders whether or not Ranma's feelings for her are genuine, Ranma is torn between Shampoo's infatuation for his male form and bloodthirst for his female form. During school the next day, Shampoo discovers Ryoga in his pig form and decides to break into Ranma's class and feed him Ryoga. Akane immediately cries and snatches P-Chan away to resuscitate him. With another attempt to win Ranma over stolen by Akane, Shampoo gives Akane the Kiss of Death and challenges her to a battle in the school courtyard. Ranma is knocked out unconscious for the battle and ends up arriving only when it is over. He finds Akane unconscious but unharmed. When he wakes her up however, she has no idea who he is.

| ShortSummary    = Ranma realizes that Akane is suffering from selective amnesia, as she only has no memories or recollections of just Ranma. He ends up consulting Dr. Tofu on what Shampoo might have done to Akane during their fight, and Dr. Tofu explains that Shampoo used the infamous Shiatsu technique. Genma, who was passing by, witnessed the entire ordeal. He explains that the technique involves applying various shampoos and other Chinese medicinal herbs on the head at certain acupressure points in order to erase selective memories. This can also be reversed by applying the specific Shampoo Blend 119. Ranma decides to journey to China and purchase Blend 119 from a pharmacy, only to encounter Shampoo wielding Blend 119. After a scuffle, she agrees to give him Blend 119 under the condition that Ranma kills female Ranma (still unaware that they're the same person). Back at the Dojo, Ranma begs Ryoga to severely beat him up so that his battered body can be transformed and used as evidence of his female form's death. Ryoga refuses, but Soun and Genma oblige. Akane intervenes, demanding to know the cause of the commotion, and in a fit of rage, Ranma calls her "un-cute" (a common phrase he uses against her). This triggers a shock reaction from Akane. Ranma realizes that uttering familiar phrases will trigger the deep buried memory of Ranma within Akane. He starts name-calling her the various things he tells her that she is ("unsexy", "tomboy", "built like a brick"), leading to Akane finally remembering Ranma.
