Ranma 1/2 #14
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeVolume 14 of Viz's Ranma 1/2 continues the chaotic martial arts romantic comedy as Ranma and the gang face a bizarre new challenge: a town where everyone is named after food, leading to a series of misunderstandings and fights. The volume also features more of Happosai's troublemaking, Cologne's schemes, and the ongoing rivalry between Ranma, Ryoga, and Mousse over Shampoo and Akane. Classic Rumiko Takahashi humor and martial arts absurdity are on full display in this collection of the original manga chapters.
In "Part 1: Target: Pigtail," Ranma and Akane find themselves caught in a chaotic hot springs obstacle race, forced to dodge both physical challenges and the increasingly desperate efforts of Shampoo and Mousse to keep them apart. With Ryoga accidentally paired with Ukyo and Mousse partnered with Akane, the stakes rise in this high-stakes, slapstick showdown. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Gerard Jones, and Toshifumi Yoshida, and illustrated by Takahashi with inks by Wayne Truman, this 1999 Viz issue features a dynamic cover by Takahashi and Hidemi Sahara.
In "Part 4: Hair Raising," chaos erupts at the Tendo dojo as Happosai, Genma, and Ranma battle over the elusive Dragon's Whisker—each desperate to avoid losing their hair. With the stakes higher than ever, Ranma must navigate the mad scramble before his own locks vanish entirely.
In "Part 5: Let’s Go to the Hot Springs," Akane wins a double pass to a Hot Springs Obstacle Race, but when Ranma chooses to go with Shampoo instead, Akane storms off and invites Ryoga to join her—setting off a chain of chaotic, steamy misadventures. The story unfolds with classic Ranma 1/2 humor, blending slapstick rivalry, mistaken identities, and the ever-present tension between love, pride, and the unpredictable path to Jusenkyo.
In "Part 6: Screamin’ at the Hot Springs!", Ryoga’s legendary directional mishaps land him in the middle of the chaotic Hot Springs Obstacle Race—paired with Ukyo, while Akane finds herself racing alongside Mousse. As Ranma and Akane dodge both the course’s wild traps and Shampoo and Mousse’s increasingly desperate attempts to sabotage their rivals, the line between competition and comedy blurs in this uproarious chapter of Ranma 1/2.
In "Part 9: Ranma Gives Up?!", Ranma faces a sudden, unexpected choice: after a heated argument over blame, he decides to abandon the race for the prize in order to save Akane from a sudden sinkhole. The moment tests his priorities in ways neither he nor the reader might expect.
