☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the conclusion of the Ranma 1/2 manga series, wrapping up the chaotic romantic and martial arts adventures of Ranma Saotome and his rivals. The story follows the final confrontations and resolutions among the cast, including Akane, Shampoo, and Ryoga, as the long-running comedy reaches its end. This edition is part of Viz's 2004 re-release of Rumiko Takahashi's classic series.
In "Spring Comes To Ryoga," Ranma finally shares the truth about Ryoga's curse with Akari, only to find her reaction unchanged—her feelings aren’t swayed by the revelation. But as their moment of connection begins to bloom, Ranma’s ill-advised love potion takes a sudden, chaotic turn. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Kaori Inoue, and Gerard Jones, with art by Takahashi and inks by Takahashi and Bill Schuch, this 2004 Viz issue captures the series’ signature blend of humor and heart. The cover, a vibrant collaboration by Takahashi and Yuki Ameda, perfectly captures the season’s shifting emotions.
In "Love The Pig," Ryoga’s lingering pain over his curse makes him shy away from Akari when her affection for pigs triggers painful memories. Ranma, determined to help, seeks out a love potion from Cologne—only to set off a chain of chaotic misunderstandings.
In "The Perfect Couple," Ranma's attempt to help Ryoga win Akari's heart takes a chaotic turn when he reveals Ryoga's curse—only for Akari to show she doesn't care. But just as things seem to be falling into place, Ranma's love potion spirals out of control in the most unexpected way.
When Genma tries Cologne’s experimental hair restorative, his temper unleashes a shocking transformation—steel-hard hair that spikes with rage, only to vanish in an instant if he so much as chuckles. The bizarre side effect turns every heated argument into a battle of wits and hairdos, leaving him caught between fury and futility.
In "Let's Study," Ranma’s desperate search for the Siamese Fighting Fish leads him straight into Miss Ninomiya’s apartment—only to be caught red-handed by both her and Akane. What starts as a clumsy theft quickly unravels into a bizarre revelation about the fish, turning a simple misunderstanding into something far stranger.
When Ranma catches a cold from Happosai, his fever spikes to an absurd degree—so high that his cursed form temporarily stops shifting, leaving him stubbornly male at the worst possible moment. Just as his mother arrives unannounced, the last thing he needs is to be stuck in his boy form, with no way to escape the chaos of her visit.
When Nodoka catches sight of Ranma in Ranko’s clothes, the tension spikes—especially as Akane scrambles to hide a gravely ill Ranma from her mother-in-law, who would demand seppuku at the sight of such a scandal. The stakes are high, the secrets thicker than a dojo floor, and the comedy of errors is just getting started.
