Synopsis
Continues the story of Ranma ½ (2024)
Ranma Saotome and his father Genma go on a martial arts training trip to China and accidentally fall into a cursed spring. Now, whenever they are hit with cold water, Ranma turns into a girl and Genma into a panda; hot water returns them to their original forms, but another splash of cold water re-triggers the curse. Making matters more complicated, Ranma finds out he is engaged to one of Soun Tendou's daughters, his father's old friend. When they meet, it is decided that Ranma will marry the youngest daughter, Akane, even though neither of them wants the arrangement. Being forced to live together despite their clear lack of compatibility leads to a series of funny situations and misunderstandings that might eventually help Ranma and Akane find a way to bond.
