Soun Tendo announces to his 3 daughters, Akane, Nabiki and Kasumi, that one of them will be married to the son of an old friend of his, to carry on the tradition of the Tendo dojo, Anything Goes Martial Arts. (Tendo School of Indiscriminant Grappling)...but Soun's old friend and his son aren't at all what the Tendos expected...
Instead of a man and his son, a giant panda and a girl show up. The panda turns out to be Genma Saotome, Soun's friend. And of course, the girl turns out to be Ranma, Genma's son... or at least that's what Akane found when she went into the bathroom!
Genma and his son went on a training mission, to visit a cursed training groud in the Payenkala range, Tsinghai province of China know as Jusenkyô, or Chochuansan to the Chinese. It was filled with more than a 1,000 springs and each had a curse. Falling into one of the many springs would turn you into whoever... or whatever drowned there thousands of years ago. Genma fell in shanmoniichuan, spring of drowned panda, where a panda drowned 2,000 years ago. Ranma fell in nyaniichuan, spring of drowned girl, where a girl drowned 1,500 years ago.
Now a splash of cold water will transform them to their cursed bodies and hot water will turn them back! Soun's youngest daughter Akane was chosen to be the one to marry Ranma, but that's another part of the story... Everything else develops as new characters come into the series. It's hilarious! Just you watch.
