Original subtitles

I absolutely will not allow it!

Ranma Saotome! I will not allow it!

Wh-What're you--!?

Upperclassman Kuno!

This engagement of yours to Akane...

ENGAGEMENT!?

WHAT!?

This engagement of yours to Akane...

I, Tatewaki Kuno, shall never allow it!

This is no place for a fight! Kuno, follow me!

That I shall!

Wait up!

Hey! Run quietly in the halls!

Yes, sir!

Let's take the fastest way out!

Very well!

S-So high...!

Hey! This is the third floor!

Lucky for him there's a pool down there!

No-o-o--!

That dummy!

Kuno's floating to the surface!

What happened to Saotome?

G-G-o-t-t-a-a g-g-e-t-t o-u-t-t-a h-h-ere...

G-G-o-t-t-a-a g-g-e-t-t o-u-t-t-a h-h-ere...

S-S-a-o-o-t-t-o-o-m-m-e-e...

I f-f-f-i-g-h-t o-o-n-n-n...

L-L-e-m-m-e g-g-o...

Y-Y-o-u-u-u...

j-j-j-e-r-r-r-r-k...!

Doesn't it look like Saotome's body just got smaller somehow?

Nah, couldn't be.

That's strange...

That was undoubtedly a female.

Which can mean only one thing...

Ranma Saotome, you wretch!

In your fear of me did you leave someone in your stead and flee!?

Did you think you could substitute another and escape?!

That Kuno jerk didn't have to squeeze my chest so hard!

Guess he must've figured out my secret by now.

Hey, dummy!

Just how stupid can you be?

You talkin' to me, Akane?

Throwing yourself into the pool like that...

Shut up, stupid!

Guess I'll just dump out this hot water, then...

Don't do it! Meanie!

Upperclassman Kuno!

Catch--!

Upperclassman Kuno-- I challenge you!

Akane.

A challenge, coming from you?

Very well.

If you defeat me, I shall allow you to date with me.

But I fully intend to lose!

Who said anything about a date!?

Ranma, change back into a boy while I buy you some time!

I have you now.

First thing to do is get my balance back.

Then I'll turn back into a guy!

You're the one from before!

Hey, you! Why do you still look like that!?

I can't help it, okay!?

Tell me, have you seen a strange man with a pigtail?

That cowardly little--!

He ran out in the middle of a battle!

No doubt he feared my prowess.

He's spineless! He is no man! He is no man!

That hurt, you know.

I can't believe what you're saying! I'll take you on anytime!

This should be amusing.

If you should manage to defeat me, Tatewaki Kuno, the Blue Thunder...

I shall allow you to date with me!

Who asked for a date, for cryin' out loud!?

I'll have you know Ranma Saotome's even better than me!

C'mon, let's go. Let's get outta here.

But we're still in the middle of classes!

She is formidable! But who is she...?

Gave your fiance the grand tour today, huh?

Stop it! Stop calling him my fiancee!

You all decided for me!

I hear Akane really looked out for you in school today, boy.

It's not like I asked her to.

Foolish boy!

Here we go again.

You wound me, Ranma!

Here you are a martial artist...

and yet you're incapable of uttering a single word of thanks!

Ah, to think back on the sixteen years since you were born...

Your father...

Your father...!

And here I thought I'd given you everything...

I had in trying to teach you what I know of martial arts...

And yet... and yet...!

Your father...

Your father...

- Your father--! - Here!

IN CASE OF FIRE

No!

Do not fill!

Do not turn! Do not touch!

Do not twist!

I'm so sorry. We're getting that fixed.

Saotome, let's go to the public baths.

Guess I'll just dump it out, then...

Catch--!

A challenge, coming from you?

Very well.

Upperclassman Kuno, I challenge you!

Guess I should at least say thanks.

So what if he's a guy who changes into a girl?

Sure, sure! Maybe that's okay with you, Sis...

but at school they're all spreading rumors about my being his fiancee!

Put yourself in my place, will you!?

I can't stand the thought of being associated with that pervert!

I mean, honestly!

Jeez! No way I'm gonna thank her now!

Mr.Saotome. Did you spend the night like that?

Going to stay like that all day, he says.

Want me to help you, Akane?

Don't talk to me on the way to school.

But you know they're gonna be after you again today.

Stay out of my business.

Jeez.

I want to smash myself right into your heart!

You, me, and the 2.5 kilometer race...

I'd wanted to run it together.

My body-slams of love...

please accept them! Slam, slam.

And this happens every morning...?

Let's dance the Oklahoma Mixer of love...

Honestly. Every single morning. I'm sick of it.

Huh? I wonder what happened to that Kuno guy?

Whither the pigtailed tree-borne kettle-girl?

- Yeah, I know her. - You do?

Oh, yeah. Know her really well.

A girl who has a pigtail and wears Chinese clothes, right?

Is this the truth, Nabiki Tendo?

Sure!

If she thinks she can best me once then walk away -- me...

Tatewaki Kuno, the undefeated...

rising new star of the high school fencing world--

she is gravely mistaken.

Don't you get sick of doing this every single day?

I sure do!

Huh...?

You're not very cute when you're cranky, you know.

Think of it as training, okay?

Here you go.

From Kuno? For me?

To your girl half, anyway.

He has no idea you're one and the same. Hurry up and read it!

"To the Tree-Borne Kettle-Girl..."

"Please come to the second field of..."

"Furinkan High School this evening at 5:36 p.m."

It's a letter of challenge!

Kuno's a real sore loser. I'm sure there's gonna be blood.

Maybe you'd better not go.

Damn it!

He's late!

And he's the one who called me here, too. What a guy.

"The countryside lies in ruins..."

"and yet the mountains and rivers remain as they were."

"Pride goeth before a fall.""

"It shows that all which prospers, must also decline."

It is now exactly 5:36 p.m.

The moment when the sunset here is at its most beautiful.

"The rising young star of the fencing world", they call me...

I, the Blue Thunder of Furinkan High, have arrived.

Welcome, tree-borne kettle-girl.

You don't give up, do you.

Hey, what happened to that wooden stick of yours?

I have no need of things such as that.

Ain't you the confident one!

Confident enough to give you...

this.

Pig-tailed girl...

I love you.

I love you.
