A new disciple - sent by an old friend of Happosai's - arrives at the Tendo Dojo. Ryoga tries to have a private moment with Akane - and Akari - at the same time, and a magical umbrella that makes those who wander beneath it fall in love makes the already complicated situation even worse.

Oh ho ho ho! Kodachi, Kunou's younger sister, seems to have taken a liking to Ranma! Unfortunately, she's completely crazy and will even go as far as to poison Ranma to win his affection. What's even worse, she's not at all fond of Ranma's female half... Poor Ranma, trouble just seems to follow him.

When the monk-in-residence of a faraway temple is only too eager to "give" Ranma, Genma and Soun a legendary martial-arts outfit said to endow its wearer with ultimate power, you'd think they'd know something is up. But then again, the monk did throw in such other lovely gifts...

Ranma and Ryouga will stay forever young unless they eat a special mushroom at the perfect time. Eat the right mushroom size and your age adds up accordingly! Can the two "boys" survive their squabbling and the terror that is "Uncle" Soun's whiskers until the mushrooms are 16 centimeters tall?

Akane's got a secret - a brand-new bra, waiting to be tried on. But Happosai's gotten to it first, and has already tried to squeeze Ranma into it. When a well-meaning (yet eternally clueless) Ranma suggests that Akane's chest size may in fact be shrinking, a disappointed Akane turns into an enraged Akane, and is hard pressed to decide how best to use barbells: to pump up her chest, or bust up Ranma's face!

While taking shelter from the rain in a spooky old mansion, girl-type Ranma slips on a banana peel and accidentally uncovers a cursed mirror that makes a love-hungry copy of her. The estate caretaker drops off a magical compact that can be used to capture the copy. But, Ranma and Akane unexpectedly get trapped inside of the compact! How will they ever escape and capture the boy crazy Ranma copy?

Akane Tendo is shocked when she wins a contest by being the 10,000th girl at the beach who isn't able to swim! The locals reward her with an enchanted jellyfish bathing suit that has the uncanny power to enable its wearer to swim. In return for this prize she must enter a long-distance swimming competition against a group of girls all wearing the same magical bathing suit. Akane takes the lead, but a dangerous surprise awaits her at the finish line!

Ranma rescues a hapless child being attacked by a flock of evil birdmen. The little kid turns out to be none other than the daughter of the infamous cursed springs' guide! She tell Ranma the secret map of the springs must be protected from the bird-brained bandits or the very springs themselves will dry up!

It's the final volume! Does Ranma break his gender-flipping curse? For that matter, does anybody find a way to reverse the effects of the legendary cursed spring? Does Mousse get Shampoo? Does Kuno finally get his little red-headed pig-tailed girl? Does the panty-stealing Happosai pilfer enough undergarments to complete his collection? And yes, the ultimate question will be answered: do Ranma and Akane get married? Find out!

Holding an old grudge to kill the pig-tailed girl, Shampoo, a female Chinese Amazon, journeys to Japan in search of her. Ranma makes a terrible mistake and ends up beating her in his male half... which among Shampoo's tribe, means that she has no choice other than to marry him. You know what that means... yet another fiance for Ranma! And yet another girl who wants to kill his female half...

First, Ranma & Company enjoy a trip to the beach, despite all the cold water! Then, camping out in the woods turns out to have a lot of hazards, not the least of which is the toxic cooking of Akane, Ranma's reluctant fiance... Finally, Ranma competes in two bizarre tests of skill! Who will triumph in the Anything-Goes Martial Arts Tea Ceremony and the no-holds-barred Martial Arts Fast Food Restaurant Takeout Race?

In this volume, a new evil rears its ugly head; Master Happosai accepts a new disciple; a leaky tub causes an all-out bath house battle; Happosai poses as a pig in order to sneak into Akane's bed; Soun and Genma are asked to bring a frighteningly familiar panty thief to justice; some magical "woman repellent" picked up during Ranma's travels in China puts a temporary stop to the Master's girl-chasing.
