Episode 12

'Morning! - Akane, good morning! - Good morning.
Akane, I heard that you'll be in the gymnastics contest.
- Good luck! - Leave it to me! And here you've yet to master even one event.
Shut up, you! Someone's after me! Akane Tendo, prepare to die! Kodachi the Black Rose! You've got nerve, ambushing me this early in the morning! "Ambush"? You slander me! I came to see my darling Ranma! Then you should go directly to Ranma! Ranma-darling! Shall we pick up where we left off last night? Let's do this some other time! Bye! Please, wait! Saotome.
What grudge do you bear against me? I ain't got the time for this-- Ra-n-ma-dar-r-ling! Very well! You have my permission to date with her! That's wonderful, Ranma-darling! Now we're an official couple! Hold on! Don't decide for me! I got no intention of going out with you! THEN YOU HATE ME, IS THAT IT!? No! I just-- It's true! You do hate me! It's not that! I I already got a fiancee! Her! That's why Hold it! Just this once, gimme a break, huh?? You're pathetic.
"Fiancee"? Akane Tendo, are you truly engaged to my darling Ranma? More or less.
Fascinating.
Well? Shall we make Ranma the stakes in our match? What was that!? Don't make me laugh! It's perfect, Akane! Lose, and you'll be rid of Ranma forever! You needn't lose on purpose! I intend to thrash you thoroughly! Ranma-darling.
Once the match is over You will be mine! Farewell! The woman is completely aberrant.
In any case, Ranma Saotome, be good to my sister.
Wait a second! What did you just say? I asked you to be good to my sister! "Sister"!? This may be only a brother's opinion, but my sister, Kodachi, is sneaky, sly, and bad-tempered.
However she is also, by nature, a twisted soul.
Akane, be wary and take no injuries in the contest.
A vision of your elegant, leotarded figure shall sustain me.
The ancients note that one who always wins, may not be virtuous.
Kodachi will not allow her man to escape her grasp.
Undoubtedly, she will use unfair methods in the contest.
Kuno's sister Come to think of it, they're exactly alike! There is no way I'm gonna lose to her! Come down and help me practice! You've really come a long way! Well done! Don't patronize me! The fight is tomorrow! How can I win if you don't help? Let's get this straight, Ranma I am not doing this for you! I know that! And Ryoga hasn't shown up for days.
I was counting on him.
P-chan! You haven't been around for days, either.
Where have you been? What's this? "Momiji Manju" and "Nama Yatsuhashi".
Hiroshima and Kyoto? P-chan, where were you really tryin' to go? You just got no sense of direction! No sense of direction? C'mon, he's not like Ryoga! You runt! Don't bully P-chan! Let's keep up the practice.
Yeah, yeah.
Here goes! You okay? It really hurts! That should do, Akane.
What a klutz, slipping on your own ball! You'll have to withdraw from tomorrow's match.
No! I'm going! I can't let her beat me! Wait, Akane! See? You'll have to find a substitute.
Easier said than done! We're gonna need a girl who's light on her feet, stylish and knows martial arts! We'd never find her in time! What're you lookin' at me for!? You're joking! I ain't wearin' a leotard, no matter what! Ryoga! We'll be training all night, eh, Ranma? There's no hand-to-hand combat in martial-arts gymnastics.
The only way for you to master the techniques in one night is in actual combat! Are you ready, Ranma!? Get ready yourself!.
Then do your worst! That was too easy! Use the tools! Are you an animal!? At least I'm not a piglet! What was that!? What a pain.
Okay, let's go! Wow! Ranma, you're really good! Ain't been watchin' you all week for nothin'.
You don't even need to practice! I'm not done yet! Akane, why don't you go to bed? I can't do that! You're worried I might get hurt! That's not what I meant! Get some sleep.
I'll teach him what he needs to know.
You sure? Trust me.
At this rate, Ranma ought to win easily tomorrow.
I happened to overhear it.
If you lose tomorrow's fight, you promised to date Kodachi.
In other words, your relationship with Akane is over! You will lose tomorrow's contest! I knew your coachin' act was all bull! Unfortunately for you, I've got no intention of dating Kodachi.
Then I'll do everything I must to ensure that you lose! Prepare yourself! I will cripple you before the contest! Go ahead and try it! Why, you--! Dammit! Don't tell me they're You're beaten! Give up? NO WAY! Were you doing this all night!? Izzit mornin' already? What about the match? I'll be fine Fine Fine This fish cake's tough, Kasumi.
That's a hand towel! Is Ranma going to be all right? St.
Hebereke High School takes on Furinkan High School in Martial-Arts Rhythmic Gymnastics, in Gym #2 at 1 PM.
You're substituting contestants? Yes, I hurt myself, so this girl's going to fill in.
You're that pigtailed girl from the other day! Let's put forth our best efforts today, shall we? Wait just a minute! What are these? However did those tacks get between my fingers!? Is this really St.
Hebereke's School for Girls!? You're sure there's no mistake about this? I got here without getting lost! My directional sense has never led me right! But I came straight where I want to be! It's the power of love, Akane! Now I have to break up Ranma's contest! Honestly! You can't take your eyes off her for a minute.
Mr.
Saotome! Pop.
You made it.
Look.
A bouquet of black roses! Sleeping gas! Sure woke me up.
That's strange.
I should've reached the gym by now! Hey! Somebody could be down there! It's okay.
Nothing down there but a piglet.
It's a piglet! It's cute! Lemme hold it next! Kodachi Perhaps this pig will aid me.
The bout between St.
Hebereke and Furinkan High Schools in Martial-Arts Rhythmic Gymnastics is about to begin! Martial-arts fans from both schools: Thank you for waiting.
The contest with our guests from Furinkan High is starting! Will the contestants enter the ring? Th-That's The Furinkan High challenger is entering the ring! It's the pigtailed girl! Once this challenger meets the undefeated Kodachi Kuno what kind of epic battle may we expect? Now Kodachi Kuno enters the ring! Watch out! However did that bomb get in there? I do hope you're not wounded! Why, you little--! Kodachi begins with an ambush! And isn't her outfit lovely! The end of the match is in sight! And once the fight is over, Ranma will be mine! I shall wed Ranma in this very dress! And I'll be oh-so-lovable! Once Kodachi wins, my sister will own Ranma Saotome.
Then Akane and the pigtailed girl will automatically be mine! Good luck, sister of mine! I cheer for you for the first time! Why, Brother dear! He's Kodachi's brother! - He's wonderful! - Hear that? Ignorance really was bliss.
And introducing the contestants! In the red corner! From St.
Hebereke's Kodachi Kuno! And in the blue corner Excuse me, Miss? What's your name? Ranma Saotome.
You're using your real name!? From Furinkan, Ranma Saotome! Ranma Saotome!? Ranma Saotome!? - She said Ranma Saotome! - Ranma!? That woman's name is Ranma Saotome!? The same name as my darling Ranma!? It's the same name, but it's so odious when applied to a girl! I've finally learned the pigtailed girl's name! I must write it down, lest I forget! She does look like Ranma.
Maybe it's true, that bit about everyone having a double.
See? No one's figured it out.
Contestants, to the center of the ring.
Okay, shake hands.
Ranma! Watch out! What's this!? Self-confidence can make you careless! Ryoga!? You just live to mess me up!
