Ranma ½

らんま1/2

Ranma Saotome is a skilled martial artist training in China when he and his father, Genma, fall into a cursed spring. Now, Ranma turns into a girl when splashed with cold water, and only hot water can turn him back into a boy. Genma, meanwhile, becomes a panda under the same conditions.

Returning to Japan, Ranma discovers that his father has arranged for him to marry one of Soun Tendo's three daughters to secure the future of the Tendo dojo. Soun chooses his youngest daughter, Akane, a strong-willed martial artist who despises boys. Neither Ranma nor Akane is thrilled about the engagement, but they must navigate their reluctant relationship while dealing with rivals, love interests, and constant chaos.
