About this Collection

This first volume of Ranma 1/2 introduces the chaotic life of Ranma Saotome, a martial artist cursed to turn into a girl when splashed with cold water. After his father Genma makes a disastrous training trip to the cursed springs of Jusenkyo, Ranma arrives at the Tendo dojo to fulfill an arranged engagement with Akane Tendo, leading to comedic clashes with rivals like Tatewaki Kuno and the introduction of key characters from the Nerima district. Collecting the opening chapters of Rumiko Takahashi's beloved series, this edition sets the stage for the gender-bending martial arts comedy that defined the genre.
