☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe thirty-third volume of Viz's 2006 edition of Rumiko Takahashi's classic martial arts romantic comedy. This installment continues the chaotic adventures of Ranma Saotome and his many rivals and fiancées, as the gender-bending curses and absurd martial arts challenges show no signs of letting up.
In "The Two Ranmas," a misfired love-binding ritual splits Ranma’s card from Akane’s Bamboo leaves, sparking a chaotic scramble to reunite them—each with their own idea of who belongs with whom. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Kaori Inoue, and Gerard Jones, with art by Takahashi and inks by Schuch, this 2006 Viz issue delivers the series’ signature humor and high-stakes shenanigans. The cover, a collaborative effort by Takahashi and Yuki Ameda, captures the escalating absurdity in vivid, dynamic detail.
In "An Isosceles Love Triangle," Jo finds herself caught in a bizarre twist when a cursed mirror and a mystical compact arrive, promising to trap anyone who gazes into its depths—only for the counterfeit Ranko to seize the compact first. With the balance of attraction and chaos already strained, the stage is set for a surreal tangle of identities and emotions.
In "The Ultimate Couple," Ranma, Akane, Kuno, Happosai, and the mirror version of Ranko are sucked into a mysterious compact that plunges into a pond, triggering a surreal journey into the mirror world. As the boundaries between reality and reflection blur, the group finds themselves caught in a bizarre, exaggerated version of their usual chaos—where love, rivalry, and martial arts take on a surreal, satirical twist.
In "Playing House," Ranma’s accidental destruction of one of Nabiki’s concert tickets sets off a day-long game of escalating demands, where every favor she calls in pushes Ranma further into comedic desperation. With Nabiki’s sharp wit and playful manipulation at full force, the balance of their usual rivalry tilts into something far more entertaining—and unexpectedly personal.
In "The Sisters Of Terror," the junior member of a tea house and female ninja dojo sets her sights on revenge against Happosai, Genma, and Ranma for the destruction of her home. Written by the team behind the series and illustrated with sharp, kinetic energy, this 16-page satire blends martial arts chaos with classic Ranma 1/2 absurdity, as a determined young ninja takes on the infamous trio in a battle of wits and wushu.
In "Runaway Ninja," Ukyo finds herself caught between loyalty and a chance at peace when she agrees to take in Konatsu—on the condition he gives up his vendetta against Ranma. But the elders of the Red Hot Tea House aren't willing to let go so easily, and they respond by abducting Ukyo, forcing a showdown that puts her resolve to the test.
