Ranma 12 s01e141 Episode Script

Ranma, I'm training in Hokkaido now.
I'll be back in three days.
I challenge you to fight in the usual empty lot.
Don't be late.
Ryoga Hibiki.
He should talk about bein' late! I waited ten days already! Earthquake? What the--??!!! Where am I? Directionally challenged jerk! Watch where you're goin'! Long time no see, Ranma.
I'll settle our fight with my new secret technique.
Interestin'.
Bring it on! What's that for? Here goes--! Shishi Hoko Dan! It's more awesome than I expected! That was pretty good.
But I'm just gettin' started! Fine, Ranma.
I'll use you for practice.
Forget it!! I ain't finished yet! Again--! "Protect our cherry trees.
" The technique is awesome.
But it's not perfected yet.
C'mon! One more time! Shishi Hoko Good evening! Ryoga! It's nice to see you! Ranma! Ranma is incapacitated, so I brought him home.
What happened to him??! Ranma's as beat-up as an old rag.
He went a few practice rounds with me.
But I got a bit carried away.
Sorry about that, pal.
What a kind friend Ranma is.
Ryoga! Our fight ain't finished yet--! The "Lion's-Roar Blast"? I've never heard of it.
It must be something, if it defeated Ranma.
No, Ranma probably went easy on me to help me practice.
How noble of you.
Such modesty is rare among the young these days.
Ryoga's matured quite a bit.
I'd like to bathe now.
- Bathe? - Bathe? I beatRanma.
For the first time I beat him! I beat ol' Ranma.
Yay! Did something nice happen to Ryoga? He was skipping in the hallway.
C'mon, cheer up.
It wasn't a real fight.
You were only practicing.
But I was fightin' for real.
"Shishi Hoko-Dan'"! My punches didn't even faze Ryoga.
That secret technique I'll learn how to defeat it! Want something? What's in that scroll??! Why should I show it to you? C'mon! Lemme see! Tell me where you learned that move, then.
So you'll do anything to win? Fine! It happened a week ago.
I happened to make a stop deep in the mountains.
"Where am I?" Got lost again, I bet? "Oh, Akane" And I spent the night in a cave that I found.
Rats.
Landslide? This calls for my Breaking-Point Technique! The Breaking-Point Technique is used to break up rocks in construction work! This technique reduces rocks to rubble when their breaking-point is touched! No good! The rocks keep coming down.
The ground's too fragile.
Breaking it up won't work, sonny.
You need a more explosive technique.
He was the local construction worker.
Lion's-Roar Blast? This scroll explains it.
Wanna try it? You've got talent, so you should learn in no time.
A-Awesome! And you learned it in one night? It seems I was born with a certain talent for this.
Hah, it's just a simple construction-site technique??! But it's not like the Breaking-Point Technique that only works on rocks.
This technique can blast humans, too.
That's cool! I'll figure out your big, scary ol' Lion's-Roar Blast! Oh, I forgot to tell you, Ranma I haven't perfected this technique yet.
What??! That awesome power? Not perfected?! Look forward to it, Ranma! I'll perfect the Lion's-Roar Blast and give you a taste of true defeat! Cat Cafe Lion's-Roar Blast? You know the secret of the Lion's-Roar Blast, right, Cologne? I know of it, but why do you want to learn it? To take Ryoga out! What? Ryoga? Fine.
Let's see what you can do.
Cross your wrists over your chest! - Like this? - More tightly! And summon up all your fighting spirit.
Now release!! That wouldn't even fell a cat! Funny! Let's try again! Lion's-Roar Blast!! Wha? I thought so.
This technique is too much for you.
How come??! Even Ryoga could do it! Ryoga is different.
He has a natural talent.
Him??! Take my advice.
Don't delve any further into this technique.
Give it up.
Cologne!! Give it up! Ryoga can do it, but I can't? That means I'm gonna lose to Ryoga!! Trouble! Big trouble! A Dojo Destroyer's come! What? No, not you, weakling Ranma.
Powerful Ryoga! Please help us! Yes, sir.
Lion's-Roar Blast! An out-of-the-park home run! - That's our Ryoga! - Aw! With such a fine successor, the school is secure!! Pop? Ranma! After your defeat at Ryoga's hands, I just can't face anyone--! N-Now, now! You're pitiful, Ranma.
All you can do is mooch off of others.
Right! For a freeloader, you eat like a pig! We can't afford to support two moochers who do nothing.
We haven't much rice to last the month.
And we've already found a promising successor.
Hey, you GUYS-S-S!! Stop right there!! I've decided! I'll ask Akane out for sure this time! Ryoga, did you really beat Ranma? Yes.
Now I'm finally deserving of you! I did it all for you! Oo! So strong! I love it! Ryoga!! Akane--! Hey, isn't it Ryoga? Akane--! Are you okay, Ryoga? Aw.
This is nothing new.
I'm glad I ran into you.
I wanted to talk.
Akane! I wanted to talk to you, too--! Huh? Um, I Ranma's been kind of depressed lately.
After that practice he had with you.
Did something happen? Nothing much.
Never mind that.
Now that I'm stronger than Ranma - Let's--! - Ryoga??! Please.
Cheer Ranma up, will you? No matter what, you've known Ranma longer than anybody.
You're the only one who can help him at a time like this.
Ryoga!! I finally found you, Ryoga! Show me the Lion's-Roar Blast again! Cut it out.
I don't feel like it right now.
Oh, so now you're a big man??! C'mon, show me!! Bug off.
Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me! I said BUG OFF!!! What an insensitive clod.
I could be wrong, but his power seems to be greater now.
This technique isn't perfected yet.
So it's gettin' closer to perfection?! I gotta get goin'! Upperclassman Hibiki!! Yoo hoo! Yoo hoo? What's that??! Could it be a secret technique??! Who're you? I've had a crush on you for a long time, Mr.
Hibiki!! H-Honest??! I didn't know that at all! 'Course not, jerk! Sa-ay? Did you beat up that really strong Ranma Saotome? Yeah How COOL! So this scroll contains the secret of your power??! Gee, you're perceptive.
I wanna see! Wanna see! I'm dyin' to see! Show me, show me, show me.
Okay! Just for you, I'll reveal the secret of the Lion's-Roar Blast! Um Never mind the technique.
I wanna see the scroll.
You could get hurt.
Better step back.
Lion's Roar Blast!! What was that? Strange, I knew how to do it.
C'mon, try again! Lion's Roar Blast! Hey! Get a grip!! I'll look like a real idiot, if I blow it again! Whoops.
I did it! Double whoops.
Ranma, you dashed my hopes! Take THIS!! Can't we talk??! Stone-roasted sweet potatoes! I couldn't figure it out.
I don't wanna lose like this!! Ranma! What's wrong? Akane's worried about you.
Here, Ranma! Lemme alone, will ya??! He seems fine.
Yes, he does.
I just did the Lion's-Roar Blast! How? It was so sudden! What is this technique, anyway??! Lion's! Why not rest awhile, Ranma? Roar! You shouldn't stay up all night.
Blast!! Crud! What's wrong??! I just did it once last night.
And only by coincidence! Good grief.
How can anyone get so serious? How can I get back that strength of spirit? Your efforts are useless, Ranma.
Ryoga! Ranma, you'll never beat me.
Never again!! Ranma, is it possible? - Did Ryoga beat you??! - Yaargh! Yes! I beat Ranma - TWICE! - Yargh, yaargh! I didn't lose in a REAL fight!! Hah? I did it!! How??! Wait! I was depressed last night and today 'cause I didn't wanna lose to Ryoga! Low spirits, low spirits, low spirits.
Low spirits, spirits, spirits, spirits.
Spirit! I get it! The Lion's-Roar Blast gets more powerful as you get more depressed! Am I wrong, Ryoga??! You're right! Rats! I got so swell-headed, I've given away the secret! Now that I know it, it's mine.
I haven't even perfected the technique! Here goes, Ryoga! Lion's Roar Blast! I'm depressed! Rats! My spirits lifted when I thought I could win! You idiot! I still ain't good enough! I did it again! H-He got me! You dirty--! Lion's-Roar Blast! Lion's-Roar Blast! Lion's-Roar Blast! Lion's-Roar Blast! Lion's-Roar Blast! Hey, you guys.
What's with the racket so early in the morning? Ranma! Ryoga! When youths ignore food or rest to fight with youthful ardor, it's understandable.
Saotome and I both did.
But still! What the heck is all this??! Go fight someplace else! Ryoga, thanks to you, I got scolded by Mr.
Tendo.
I never meant for this to happen.
Still, it was because of you.
- How depressing.
- How depressin'.
Wait, wait, you two--! Let's talk it over! Huh? Huh? Lion's-Roar Blast! Like a bullet.
He'll miss breakfast.
Lion's-Roar Blast! Lion's-Roar Blast! How foolish to fight with the Lion's-Roar Blast.
Cologne! It's a forbidden technique that brings misfortune.
Those who seek to perfect it are like lions kicked off a cliff hurtling to oblivion, pitting their misfortunes against each other.
But the Son-in-Law has no chance of winning this fight! Ranma's always beaten me! Lion's-Roar Blast! And I'm always getting lost! Lion's-Roar Blast! I'm a loser with girls! Lion's-Roar Blast! I'm pitiful, too! With the greatest misfortune possible! I turn into a girl when splashed with water.
Look at this stupid transformation! Son-in-Law, no! Ranma, you shouldn't have said that.
So what if you're half-girl? Look at me! I'm--! A pig.
Ranma!! Blast you! I win.
I've got the upper hand at being miserable.
Ryoga! Runnin' away? What? This fight ain't over yet.
Meet me in one week! Ranma! Why fight a battle like this??! It'll be a hollow victory! Watch, Ryoga! I'll be more miserable than you! Interesting.
Let's see how far you'll get without the secret scroll.
Just as I feared.
They're both fixated on the skill and thus on their own misery! Even if they perfect the skill, they'll come to rue it.
What? The skill's not perfected??! It's a big headache as it is.
What'll happen if it's ever perfected??!
