Kuno! Kuno! Oh! Pigtailed Girl! Here's a towel.
Good luck in the Kendo match three days from now.
How kind and thoughtful of you! I made this box lunch for you, too.
Here's a sports drink and a good-luck charm.
GEE! And a hand-knitted sweater.
And hand-knitted muffler.
Love letters written every day.
Good-luck Daruma doll and Cat.
Valentine chocolates.
Birthday cake.
And New Year's greetings.
'Bye now! Love you lots! Hold it! Now I could be wrong, but-- This really seems like you want to get unpleasant chores over with all at once.
Bingo! Ranma, you're doing this to get even for me? I can't let Ranma suffer alone! I'm entering that match too! Oww! Akane, you really are clumsy, aren't you? Okay, one more time! Oww.
Why not give up, already? What?! Ranma's on a date with Kuno?! Isn't Kuno a boy?! What's the meaning of this, Tendo?! Saotome! That's what I'd like to know! I'm worried.
I'm sure Ranma can take care of himself.
No, I'm worried about Kuno.
I'm home! Welcome home.
Oh, Ranma, you're in a good mood.
How was your date with Kuno? Ranma, I hope you didn't--? If you shared a soft drink together-- Creep! If he tried to hold your hand in the movies-- Cut it out, Kuno! If he tried to kiss you good-night--! Don't get familiar! Just thinkin' of it makes me sick! It gives me the creeps! Oh, dear.
Ranma hates Kuno even more now.
I was afraid of this.
Agh! I shoulda hit 'im one more time! Furinkan High School vs Seishun Institute Combative Cheerleading AlsoKendo Club Tournament The cheerleading competition's during the Kendo match.
Both cheerleaders are rooting for Kuno? Yeah.
Why would the Pigtailed Girl root for Kuno, though? I'm going to win Kuno's heart today.
Hey, Mariko Konjo! Why, it's the boys on the Kendo team! Are you really rooting for Kuno of Furinkan High? Who'll root for us, then? That's cold! Don't worry.
Of course, I'll cheer for you, too.
Here, a snack made with love.
-- Thanks! -- Great! Eat up! -- Paralysis medicine--?! -- Aaagh! Forgive me, boys.
Mariko Konjo, you did that just for me? I'm stoked! Kuno Darling You see how much I love you, don't you? Up to your dirty tricks, I see?! For the man I love, I'll gladly sink low.
That's O-H-E-N.
Cheerleading.
Can you do that? I finished off the Seishun Academy Kendo team! Now it's just you and me! That's nothing! Look out, Pigtailed Girl! Stay outta my way! Now she's done it.
Look, Kuno's depressed.
The Pigtailed Girl's cheerleading bombed.
it's only natural.
She doesn't love Kuno.
Weakling! Gettin' depressed for so little--! K-U-N-O! S-A-M-A (Darling)! Kuno Darling! Let my love lift you up.
Basket Toss of Love! She's hiding in the pom poms! Rival Extermination Kick! You can't yell where the next kick's coming from! Confession of Love's Pom Pom Fireworks! I feel it! I feel it! As she attacks the Pigtailed Girl, she spurs Kuno on! That's some one-two punch! Dammit.
I can easily beat Mariko to a pulp.
But then I won't win the cheerleading match! What can I do--?! There's only one way, Ranma.
You can win, even if you don't love Kuno.
I have never known defeat in cheerleading.
Pigtailed Girl, if you're not careful, you'll lose your spot as my girl.
Who wants ya be your GIRL?!! Whoah, look at Kuno.
He's sinking into the Black Hole of depression.
Rats! I can't love Kuno, after all! What should I do? What--?! Body blow! Point! A Kendo opponent.
They're still in this? How? Wrist blow! Point! Thrust! Point! Mask! Point! How is this possible? I got rid of Seishun's Kendo team with the paralysis drug.
Who is that, anyway? Furinkan High Kendo Team Captain, Tatewaki Kuno! Come forward! If Kuno loses, Furinkan loses! Kuno! This is no time yo be depressed! You're challenging me, the Blue Thunder of Furinkan High? Foolhardy imbecile! He's snapped out of it.
Begin! I'll beat you down in one second! The challenger from Seishun Academy is Kuno's equal.
He's pretty good.
Kuno's enemy is my enemy! Deadly Baton Cutter! What's the big idea? Cheerleading is love.
You must love and encourage your team, right? So what? That's a player for Seishun Academy! I just decided ta love this player! The Pigtailed Girl's made a daring switch! I get it! That's one way! If I help Seishun Academy win, I win.

Hey, didn't Akane just call the Pigtailed Girl, "Ranma"? How could the Pigtailed Girl be Ranma? W-What's goin' on? The Pigtailed Girl turned into Ranma! Now it's the Pigtailed Girl.
They were one and the same person! Excuse me! Which means-- That dirty Ranma's been sayin' he loves her all match long! He's been using that weird magic and this match to sweet-talk Akane all along! Snap out of it, Ranma! There's no time to feel bashful! Do you want yo lose this Martial Arts Cheerleading competition?! Why, it's the pitiful dork who lost the volleyball match.
