In the fourth episode of Ranma 1/2, titled ‘The Combatant’, we’re introduced to Ryoga Hibiki, who showcases his fighting prowess by subduing a rampaging bull in a town. With a past grudge against Ranma Saotome, Ryoga eventually crosses paths with him.

In a peculiar twist of fate, I find myself in a world where my beloved character, Ranma, is initially disguised as a woman due to the absence of dry male attire. Poor Ryogo seems to be grappling with this reality, not recognizing me immediately. Yet, amidst the initial bewilderment, the memories of our shared past begin to resurface – we were schoolmates together!

In that particular moment, Ranma often stole Ryoga’s meals, causing him to suspect this might be the reason behind Ryoga’s animosity. The second half of Ranma 1/2 Episode 4 delves into their scheduled fight, during which Ryoga showcases impressive and unique skills that catch Akane Tendo’s attention.

In the scuffle, Ranma unwittingly transforms into a girl following contact with cold water. Despite this, Ryoga stays determined on his task. As Akane helps the mortified Ranma, she becomes annoyed by his apparent ingratitude, eventually striking him. The fourth episode of Ranma 1/2 concludes when Ryoga’s weapon unfortunately chops off some of Akane’s hair.
