My Jusenkyo Hot Springs Page!



Jusenkyo hot springs: In Mount Quanjing, Bayankala range, Qinghai province, China, lies the Legendary “Training grounds of Accursed Springs”! There are more than 100 pools and each one has their own tragic curse (but we’re not sure, as Akanennichuan did not used to have a curse!). The training grounds are no longer used, as they are highly dangerous. The curses go like this, something drowns in one of the pools and it becomes cursed. Therefore, anyone or anything that falls into the water will take on that shape in cold water. They go back to their original shape in hot water, but this only works until the next time they are in cold water. The Jusenkyo Guide from China looks after the Springs.

Here is a list of all the sprins that I know of, what they do and how old they are! If you anything else or I have got any info. wrong, please mail me!

"Spring of Drowned Boy” Nan = boy gender This is the spring that apparently can cure Ranma, Ryoga, Genma, and Mousse of their curses, but they haven't been able to find it or get to it as of yet. One of Happi's friends fell in this pool.

Yaazuniichuan 1300 years old
“Spring of Drowned Duck” Yaa = duck, zun is a sentence particle. A more accurate translation is Yaa-dz. (Who knows how a duck is supposed to drown though?)
