This volume is excellent! Akari makes her first ever appearance in this volume! Watch what happens when Ranma tries to help set Ryoga up with her, with hilarious results! Ranma's mom also comes back, and Ranma just happens to have a burning fever, that leaves him unable to change into a girl, because all water around him will become warm. Of course, a certian pain in the butt dad and evil martial arts master may just ruin his chances of meeting her. There's also a few silly short stories involing Hinako, Genma, Kuno, and a cursed spatula(this one is really funny).
