Ranma 1/2 #20

In "Part 2: Ranma Meets His Mother!?", Ranma’s mother suddenly announces she’s coming to visit, sending Genma into a panic. With no time to spare, he drags Ranma along on a sudden, chaotic journey—leaving behind the usual chaos of Nerima in search of a place to hide.

In "Part 3: A Man’s Vow," Ranma is stunned to learn that Genma once swore a deadly oath to Nodoka: if he fails to raise Ranma into a proper man, both would die by seppuku. Now, with the truth exposed and Nodoka still unaware of the curse that haunts Ranma, the weight of honor and fear begins to twist the already chaotic dynamics of their family.

In "Part 7: Sudden Hate!!," Shampoo’s sudden shift from devoted admirer to furious foe leaves everyone stunned—especially Ranma, who now finds himself on the defensive not from a fight, but from a love turned to loathing. The mysterious brooch from Cologne’s collection may be the key, but as Ranma scrambles to understand what’s changed, he’s left wondering if this new hatred is truly hers—or something far more sinister.

In "Part 8: Say You Love Me!!," Ranma sets up a martial arts showdown with Shampoo, hoping a victory will win back her affection—though his confidence is as shaky as his balance. Meanwhile, Akane watches from the sidelines, her simmering frustration turning every punch and parry into something far more personal.

In "Part 9: Love’s Counterstrike," Cologne manipulates Ranma into confessing his eternal love for Shampoo—only to remove the brooch that keeps her emotionally guarded. With the plan exposed, Mousse’s betrayal sets Akane racing to intervene, turning a moment of romantic manipulation into a chaotic race against time.

In "Part 11: The Phantom Lingerie," the ghost of a woman who’s never had her underwear stolen unleashes a curse on Happosai: he must steal her bloomers by midnight, or his life ends. Refusing to play along, Happosai finds himself in a race against time—and a very persistent, very spectral ex-lover.
