Episode 158
Village of my birth, Sarugakure Village.
The secret home of ninja since days of antiquity.
The village produced not only people but ninja dogs namely, dogs trained in the ninja arts.
It was the so-called "Dog Hole.
" However, the ninja world was bound by strict rules.
Unforgiving and relentless.
Thus, rarely do its members seek to flee.
Particularly in the ninja dog's case they were called "fudgsicle canines"-- I mean, "fugitive canines"! I sure have come a long way.
Raccoon.
No, a dog! I'll save you.
Grab this! Hurry! Come here, P-chan.
Let's go to sleep now.
Good night, P-chan.
I'm the one who ended up getting saved.
Pretty hungry, weren't you? You don't seem to be anybody's pet.
Well I'm traveling alone, too.
Let's be friends.
Cut it out! Quit that! This is an important letter.
You see, this letter-- This letter is-- Would you like to know? Miss Akane Tendo Always so cheerful and kind And strong, too.
This letter is full of my love for Akane.
I didn't hold back anything.
And someday What's this? It's from Ryoga.
Akane? Breakfast.
Ryoga, you finally said it, didn't you? I'm so happy.
Imagine! Ranma a martial artist must keep his senses sharpened alert to every change in his surroundings.
It is too late when the eyes see.
- Yeah! - Good.
Now assume battle stance! - Yeah! - Good.
Ready? Be on your guard! Darn it! Who did that? What a cute doggie.
Come here.
What a good boy.
"What are you doing, you bastard!" Wow! How clever! "Wha what is this?" Nice moves for a dog.
I didn't even sense him.
Where'd this dog come from? He wandered into our garden.
Weird-looking.
He's cute.
Shake.
Shake hands.
I'm home! Welcome home, Akane.
What a funny dog! What's this letter in his mouth? For me? Gone! Gone! It's gone! That dog's gone, too.
No.
The dog took my letter? Akane, what is it? It It looks like a love letter.
A little old love letter! The dog came here to deliver a love letter to you? Yesit looks that way.
I'm finished.
Oh, are you sure? Daddy, who do you think sent that letter? Who knows? Would you know? Not Ranma, that's for sure.
No kidding! It wasn't Ranma.
That's for sure.
I Iove you! I've been crazy for you from the moment I Iaid eyes on you.
You're my goddess of hope.
PIease give me that sweet smile of yours.
Akane Tendo, I would die for you! Why'd I get carried away and write those things? What if it falls into someone else's hands? Or worse, what if Ranma gets a hold of it? Find me a hole to crawl into! I just wanna hide, hide, hide! No! This is really bad! I'm sure he came in here.
Hey, Sasuke! Flee! Too late! You saw through my "Cicada on Tree" move! Some move.
By the way, what're you doing here? This ain't another weird scheme of yours, I hope? I need to find that black and white dog.
What? You know about that dog? Because I'll warn you, that's no ordinary dog.
What? What should I give him for dinner? Won't miso soup on rice be enough? A deserter? It happened last night.
- Good night! - Thank you! Guess I had a little too much.
A suspicious-looking dog! He vanished! Even more suspicious.
Wait! Could it be Several days ago, this wanted poster came from my village.
It was that very dog! There's no mistake! Yeah.
It looks like him.
But what about that love letter? Nothin'.
Rats.
When will these woods end? I can't be wasting my time here! Don't you have to go home? You can stay here if you want.
Or are you waiting for someone? Huh? Me? You mean Be counting on you.
Finally he's making a move.
Here he comes! Got him! What? The old switcheroo move! It's so noisy up there.
Cats? Cats, dogs It's like a zoo around here.
Darn.
That dog's fast on his feet.
"Guardians of the ninja way give me special powers to catch that dog" Now what are those cats up to? Why you Sasuke, you okay? He appears to have a letter.
What? Ranma, sir, capture the dog and win the honor Hey, Sasuke! Crud! Who's he taking that letter to? I'll get that ninja dog! I'll go straight to the Tendo's.
Huh? Am I going the wrong way? Which way was the police? I'm scared! Thanks, doggie.
He's a pretty good dog, after all.
I wonder what happened to the doggie.
Maybe he went home.
He seemed to be on an errand.
He seems to have completed it.
By the way I gave him a name - Black 'n' White.
Black 'n' White? Isn't it a darling name? Nowthat's original.
Black 'n' White? Wonder if he got to deliver my letter? He ain't gettin' away this time.
It's the same dog! I get it.
He brought his friends for payback time.
I see! He can't bite back because he's holdin' the letter! Exactly! He is unable to inflict a mortal wound! S-Sasuke, you! I was suffering from a lack of sleep.
But now I am revived, refreshed, and roaring to go! "Roaring to go"? That dog has grit! Almost as brave as me.
They far outnumber him.
He's in real trouble.
Shoot.
Sasuke, shall we help him? Fine! Hold it! Ryoga! Ganging up on him?! You cowardly dogs! Take this! Breaking Point! C'mon.
Do you want more? I won't go easy on you next time.
Not much at fighting, are they? I've been looking for you.
Cut it out! What? They're friends? Hey, could that be?! "From Akane Tendo" Thisis Akane's answer! I see! You delivered my letter and got an answer? Good boy! I wonder what it says? Thank you for the letter.
I understand how you feel about me.
"l understand how you feel" I'm the luckiest guy on earth! Akane finally knows how I feel! You're my friend, after all! It's a good thing that idiot, Ranma, didn't get the letter! What's this about that "idiot" Ranma? Ranma.
Now I get it! Who woulda guessed you wrote the love letter? Ha! What do you mean, Ranma? Cut the act! That letter from Akane proves it! Ranma, whether I was waiting for Akane's reply or not is none of your business! You're just in time.
I shall read out loud to you what Akane wrote.
This is the decisive moment our positions dramatically switch! Ready? Listen well.
"Thank you for your letter.
" "l can truly understand how you feel.
" "But I can't respond to your feelings for me" Hey, what's wrong, Ryoga? What happened? "l can truly understand how you feel.
" "But I can't respond to your feelings for me.
" "I'm in Iove with someone else.
" "Thank you, but that's how it is, so I'm sorry.
" " From Akane Tendo.
" Hey, Ryoga.
Could it be you didn't sign your name on the letter? Look, Akane's addressed this to "Mr.
Unknown".
You're right Which means Akane didn't know I sent the letter.
Probably! I see.
So that's it.
That means the one she's in love with could be me! Moron.
- Ranma - Yeah? See you again.
Hey! Let's go! Sasuke, you sure about that? Fine with me.
