Ranma

Having to live with a curse can lead to many curses, as Ranma Saotome shows. He finds out he is betrothed to two girls, thanks to his father, Genma, and by amazon traditions, to yet another. The first and foremost fiancee is Tendo Akane. She is a tom boy, hot tempered, and a horrible cook. Three things that Ranma has a habit of making her show constantly. In spite of hard feelings, there are tender moments between these two in which you feel they are meant for each other...if they don't kill each other first. The next is Ukyou who was betrothed to him with the dowry of her father's cart. When they were young, Ranma had thought Ukyou was a boy, but later discovers that she is all female. The last, but certainly not least, is Shampoo. Put aside the fact that she had wanted to kill him in his female form and her eerie grandmother, Cologne, they would be cute for each other.

Ranma has many who hate him as well as love him. Both Kuno and Kodachi are in love with one of his sides and despising the other. Though they have many oppurtunities to see the two are one, the brother and sister tend to be blind and constantly challenge him.

Akane

Kuno is among her admirers, torn between her and the pig-tailed girl. Then there is Gosunkugi who takes pictures of her while constantly stalking the poor girl. Ranma may end up with her, that is if they don't kill each other first. Then we can't forget Ryoga, who secretly sleeps with her when he's in P-chan form. They are all out to destroy competition or at least break her engagement with Ranma.

Hehe...notice in both pictures that no matter how Akane is feeling, Ranma has that symbol of being uncomfortable.

Shampoo

Well, Shampoo got drowned in the Pool of Drowned Cat and now she's cursed as well. And too bad for her that Ranma is absolutely terrified of cats! But there is one who loves her most devotedly, to her grandmother's dismay. That would be Mousse, whose vision is worse than how he looks with those glasses.

Mousse

What's better than having the near blind Mousse being in love with you? The duck that Mousse turns into when cold water hits him! Don't you already feel sorry for Shampoo? Well don't bother wasting your pity on her, Cologne makes sure that Mousse will never be able to wed her grandaughter.

Besides, Mousse is a head-strong blind man that is so fouled up by love, he will never give up his love for Shampoo. In case you're wondering why Cologne refuses to see Shampoo wed to Mousse, its not cuz of how stupid he looks with his glasses; its because when they were smaller, Shampoo beat Mousse's weakling ass down...poor man.

Ryoga

Ryoga is lost in love with Akane. Literally lost. He has the worst sense of direction and luck. Since childhood, he has planned to beat Ranma, but kept getting lost and Ranma is not one to stick around too long. When he finally tracks Ranma, Ryoga blames Ranma for making him fall into the Pool of the Drowned Pig.

By pure luck, good or bad, Akane finds him in pig form and names him "P-chan"! With her kind care, Ryoga falls in love with her, making his quest to destroy Ranma ten times more personal than ever before. Until he does, Ryoga is content to sleep by Akane's side at night in P-chan form.

Genma

Ranma's dear, loving father. It is totally all his fault Ranma has such a wretched love life! Though Genma is cursed to be a panda as Ranma is to be half female, Genma takes it as it comes. He spends most of his time sleeping and eating in his panda form, someimtes working at Dr. Tofu's. He mainly serves tea or gives smart ass remarks with his renowned signs. Then there is the fact he doesn't understand Chinese...

Though Genma does not worry about lovers, he and Akane's father, Soun, worry about their master who has returned. Happy, or better known as the pervert, wreaks havoc in the house of Tendo and Saotome.

Happy

Pervert!!!!

Cologne

Who ever thought this hideous lady is weak, is wrong. She is Shampoo's grandmother, strict in tradition, and powerful in the fighting technique. Cologne constantly is trying to hook up Ranma and Shampoo, repeatedly calling Ranma, "Son-in-law," as to remind him of what she plans. In trying to train him and prepare him, Cologne just happens to meet Happy...

Though not ones for love, Cologne and Happy have a history together. It does not specify what exactly happened or if there's still attraction, they're still a curious couple. But the big thing is Cologne trying to discourage the man, Mousse, after her granddaughter. That poor man is going have to go through hell before he can call Shampoo his own thanks to Cologne...
