☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeVolume 16 of Viz's Ranma 1/2 continues the chaotic martial arts romantic comedy as Ranma and the gang deal with more curses, rivalries, and misunderstandings. This collection features appearances by Pantyhose Taro and Mousse, along with the usual antics involving Akane, Shampoo, Ryoga, and the rest of the Tendo and Saotome households. The volume collects several chapters from the original manga series by Rumiko Takahashi.
In "Part 1: The Curse of the Scroll!", Ranma and Ryoga find themselves reluctantly united with Shampoo and Mousse—each with their own hidden motives. Meanwhile, Akane uncovers a surprising reason behind Pantyhose Taro’s long-standing grudge against Happosai, adding another layer to the chaos. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Gerard Jones, and Toshifumi Yoshida, with art by Takahashi and inks by Wayne Truman, this 2000 Viz issue features a cover by Takahashi and Hidemi Sahara.
In "Part 1: The Curse of the Scroll!" from Ranma 1/2 #16, Ranma’s usual misfortune takes a supernatural turn when he accidentally unleashes a demon spirit from an ancient scroll. Now bound by a bizarre promise, the spirit insists Ranma must date her before she can return to her resting place—adding a whole new layer of chaos to an already unpredictable life.
In "Part 3: The Demon’s Tale," Pantyhose Taro kidnaps Akane, forcing Happosai to confront him—leading the old master to reveal the dark secret behind Taro’s monstrous transformations. With humor and martial flair, the story unfolds as past and present collide in a tale of cursed legacy and unexpected alliances.
In "Part 5: S.W.A.T. (Save Widdle Akane Team)," Ranma and Ryoga reluctantly team up with Shampoo and Mousse—each with their own ulterior motives—while Akane uncovers a surprising twist behind Pantyhose Taro’s long-standing grudge against Happosai. The chaos of the Tendo household reaches new heights as old rivalries and hidden pasts collide in this fast-paced, funny, and fiercely unpredictable chapter of Ranma 1/2.
In "Part 11: Back to the Freak-Ture!", Ranma and the gang launch a wild scheme to trick Happosai into renaming Pantyhose Taro—only to accidentally convince the old pervert that the boy must be eliminated. With chaos brewing and the stakes higher than ever, the prank spirals into something far more dangerous than anyone expected.
