Ranma 12 s01e02 Episode Script

What is it with those two, anyway? Aren't they full of pep for this early in the morning.
Mr.
Saotome, Ranma! Breakfast is ready! I guess they are pretty good.
So energetic! Okay, let's stop for breakfast.
Really, so energetic! You're sloppy, Ranma! Now look who's being sloppy! Those two are so noisy.
Oh my! Mr.
Saotome will be needing something different for breakfast now! Morning! What? School? Well, we are going to be staying here a while.
Why do you do that!? Why do you get to decide everything!? Darn it! You'll be going to the same school as Akane and me.
See you there! W-Wait a minute! Sis--! I'm coming with you! What are you talking about? Take Ranma to school, like you're supposed to! He is your fiance.
Well then, I'm off! H-Hey, Sis! That's not fair--! W-What're you doing? Hurry up and get ready.
I'll leave you behind! Huh? Whaddya mean, "get ready"!? Okay! I'll go, I'll go! The two of us are strangers.
Of course.
Let's get something straight At school don't act like you know me, okay? Who, me? I can't stand violent girls like you! Wh-What'd you do that for, Old Man!? How dare you talk to your fiancee like that! Listen, Ranma, let me tell you something What's wrong, Old Man? Weren't you gonna say somethin'? Heh.
Serves you right! What is your problem!? Good morning! Good morning! I'll go borrow some hot water.
Wait here.
It's okay, don't bother.
It's not like you can go to school as a girl, now is it.
Jeez.
What kinda place did she bring me to? Wonder if I'm gonna be late now.
Oh, pardon me.
This is "Betty", my skeleton.
Quite a beauty with this complexion of hers, don't you think? Sorry I took so long! Ranma Oww! Ouch! Oh! Doctor Tofu! Good morning! Good morning! You haven't been by lately.
No new injuries? No, sir.
I mean I haven't been doing anything that might injure me That guy's pretty good at martial arts, isn't he.
Huh? How could you tell? Oh, I can tell.
The way he sneaked up on me from behind He completely hid all signs of his presence.
That's right.
Like you said, Dr.
Tofu's a really strong martial artist.
He doesn't look it, does he.
Ever since I was little, whenever I'd hurt myself Dr.
Tofu would make it all better.
Didn't you say you hated guys? That's true! Boys Boys Boys I HATE BOYS! Akane Tendo, you are my youth! No, you're my sun! I love you more than the Koshien baseball playoffs! - Please say you'll go out with me! - Even if we're only pen pals! Be quiet! I love you! Out of my way! I'm gonna be late! I love you! I love you! I love you! I luh-- What's going on here? What is this? Ranma! Stop standing on that wall! Come down and get to class! Yeah, but what about--? Akane will be fine.
This happens every day! What!? L-Love you Honestly.
Every single morning! I'm getting tired of it.
"The toll of the bell at the temple of Gion" "shows us of the transience of it all.
" "And the color of the blossoms on the trees demonstrates that" "all which prospers, must someday decline".
Such a boorish lot, truly.
Evidently each of them thought to date with you.
On the dawn of the day they finally defeated you, that is.
They should learn their limitations.
E-Excuse me.
Well, then.
Akane Tendo Will you spar with me? You're more popular than I thought.
Get out of the way.
You'll get hurt.
You, there! Aren't you being awfully familiar with Akane? Well, yeah, but "Yeah" but what? Enough of your insolence! I demand to know who you are! Well, I'm-- Is not the custom to give one's own name first? Fine, then! Mine I shall give! Listen carefully, as I shall only say this once! The rising new star of the high school fencing world My strength is beyond measure! I am the captain of Furinkan High School kendo club! My voice alone can silence a crying child! I'm a junior in Class E.
My peers call me The Blue Thunder of Furinkan High! Tatewaki Kuno.
Age seventeen.
Did he just call himself "Blue Thunder"? - You hear that before? - Nope.
It's news to me.
Last I heard, he was calling himself "Shooting Star".
Well, I'm, uh I'm a guest at her, y' know, her house! A guest!? You're staying under the same roof as Akane!? I'm Ranma Saotome of the Saotome School of Anything-Goes Martial Arts.
Here, hold my bag a sec.
I accept your challenge! Looks like that kid's gonna try an' take Kuno! That's dangerous! A fight with Kuno? What, again!? What an idiot.
"The vengeance of heaven is slow but sure".
So, you scoundrel! You've been hounding Akane! I, Tatewaki Kuno, shall punish you! "Hounding"!? Who's "hounding" anybody? He's just a guest! Silence, fool! Blast! Why, you slippery little--! Hey, a wait a minute! Let me make one thing perfectly clear! Listen up! You gotta understand somethin' I-Incredible! Akane means nothin' to me! He's good! If you want a crazy violent girl like her you can have her! Be silent! I will not allow you to talk that way about her! What are you saying!? Pervert! What!? Mr.
Saotome? Wow, that panda just K.
O.
'd Kuno! Man! That panda's strong! What's with this school anyway? Aw, jeez.
If it hadn't rained I would've nailed that jerk with one blow! I wouldn't be so sure about that.
Whaddya mean, Akane? I mean your throat.
There's a bruise? From that? And to think he didn't touch me once! That's not bad.
If he had, you'd be breathing through a hole in your neck.
Looks like a pretty even match, wouldn't you say? I dunno.
You might be right, Akane.
Pretty impressive.
You're telling me you didn't even feel him doing it to you, Kuno? Ranma Saotome And to think I thought better of him than that.
He wrote my name wrong! "Kuno" is written like this! Isn't it more like this? I despise you.
I'm so glad.
We have a new student joining us today at Furinkan High, in sophomore Class F.
His name is Ranma Saotome and it seems he's just returned from a trip to China so let's all be sure to give him a big "Nihao" now.
Well, uh maybe not.
Be that as it may, it doesn't excuse the fact that he and Akane were late.
So go stand in the hall.
This is your fault.
- It was your fight that I - SHH--! got caught up in.
Don't think I'm bragging, but I manage to finish up my fight every morning before the first bell.
What was that all about, anyway? At the beginning of the semester Kuno was at the speech contest and said The vengeance of heaven is slow but sure! If you wish to date with Akane you must defeat Akane in combat! I, Tatewaki Kuno, will permit absolutely no other terms! What!? F-Fiance!? Uh-huh.
Ranma and Akane have been engaged to each other by my Daddy and his Daddy.
That wretch, Ranma Saotome--! Kuno! Go stand in the hall! Yes sir.
You mean you fight with Kuno every morning? And I always win.
Somehow.
Well, when the opponent's a girl even Kuno would probably take it easy.
Don't patronize me! Why don't you really fight me sometime? Violent or not, you're still a girl.
I couldn't fight you for real.
So if we're both girls, you're saying we can fight?! W-Wait a-- What the-- Huh!? Upperclassman Kuno! Ranma Saotome! I won't allow it! This engagement of yours to Akane I, Tatewaki Kuno, shall never, ever allow it! - WHAT!? - ENGAGEMENT!? You're kidding! Oh, no! Is this for real, Akane? And you said you despised men! W-Wait! It's not like that! It's something our parents came up with! We, uh Don't you run away from me! Coward! This is no place for a fight! Kuno, follow me! That I shall! They have got to be kidding! - Let's take the fastest way out! - Very well! But this is the third floor! Don't worry! It's not a problem.
No-o-o--! Why does it have t' be water!? Ranma
