Ranma
Saotome and his father, Genma, show up at the Tendou
dojo after a journey to China. There, the two had fallen
into cursed springs. Whatever died in those springs is
what Ranma and Genma will turn into. Ranma turns into a
girl while his father becomes a panda. However the
transition only takes place if they come in contact with
cold water. And hot water reverses it. But that is only
one of Ranma's many problems. His father and Mr. Tendou
make a deal that has Ranma and Akane, Mr. Tendo's
youngest daughter, both get married so they can take
over the family dojo. Until then, they remain engaged
and unhappy.
