Ranma 12 s01e29 Episode Script

Episode 29

Ranma of the Saotome School of Anything-Goes Martial Arts.
Lemme go! Akane of the Tendo Dojo.
Wait! What th'--? Their fathers decided they should be engaged.
Don't decide for me! It's my life! There's just this one thing complicating Ranma's life.
What's that for? When Ranma is doused with cold water, HE becomes a SHE.
Observe.
What? W-What's that? Genghis Khan feared this 3000- year-old Amazon secret technique.
The bakusai tenketsu attack! "Breaking-Point Attack"? If I master this technique, I can defeat Ranma? Yes.
You may want to study it.
Please, old woman! I will learn anything that will defeat Ranma! Teach me the technique! Pop! Geez! That rotten old man.
I take my eyes off him for a second, and he runs off.
Good grief.
What a pathetic performance.
I've told you a hundred times, look for the breaking point! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Once more.
Don't use your eyes.
Use your mind's eye to find the breaking point.
Hey, Ryoga! Pull yourself together! Don't you want to beat Ranma? You'll NEVER beat him with that attitude.
Is that what you want? Ranma! Mr.
Saotome! "I seem to have lost my way.
" Huh? You still around, Pop? I figured you got sick of trainin' and left.
What is this impertinence? A man must know his enemy's condition to win.
Saotome School Secret Technique: Prior Reconnaissance! In other words, you went to spy on Ryoga's trainin'.
But you didn't have to.
No way Ryoga can beat me.
You're worried over nothin'.
So you don't need a father's advice.
Now what.
At least let me dig a grave for my son.
D-Don't say that!! Listen, Ranma! Ryoga is training to use the mysterious Breaking-Point attack! "Bakusai tenketsu"? Exactly! All natural matter on Earth has a breaking point! Hills, snakes, frogs, dogs, birds, even crickets and water bugs! Humans too, of course.
Break a human body? Where's the spot for that? Fool! It's a mystery, that's why it's mysterious! I've witnessed its horrifying effects.
But wherever he's attackin', all I gotta do is parry it.
If he can't touch the breaking point, I can win.
Piece of ca-- You may be right! W-What are you doin'? Hit each bee before it stings, and Breaking Point can't get you.
That's it? Watch me! Oww Repeat as needed, I guess.
Ryoga! Are you all right!? You poor guy! He passed out? I've told him a thousand times! Look with the mind's eye! Granny, can't we call it a day? Are you that worried about Ryoga? Well then, why don't you dump Ranma for Ryoga? Hey! O-Old woman! That matter is beside the point! You see, I-- I think of NOTHI NG but beating Ranma! Ranma! Soup's on.
Don't overdo it, 'kay? Man! I don't care what secret attacks they have!Just watch me! Akane,you jerk! No way I'm gonna lose! I'm ready, old woman! All right.
Here we go, Ryoga.
Not the eyes, but the mind's eye.
See it with the heart! There! Not quite! Impossible! You fail because you have other things on your mind.
I told you, I think of nothing but beating Ranma! What else can be on my mind? "A-K-A-N-E" You two! Dinner's ready! B-Be right there! W-Why is he laughing? Could it be that he's learned the Breaking-Point attack? Ranma-- Ryoga's been absorbed in training from dawn to dusk.
It's been six days since I left Ranma.
I wonder if he's okay.
Is he eating right? Looks like my fish are well-cooked.
What about your stew? That's strange.
Maybe I made another mistake.
It's okay.
Unlike Ranma, Ryoga LIKES the taste of my cooking.
Why not dump my son-in-law for Ryoga, then?? Then my son-in-law and Shampoo can marry, and everyone's happy.
It may be good for you, but not me! So your devotion to my son-in-law is that strong? I-It's nothing like that! I sense a heightened battle spirit! W-What? H-Hey, wait-- It's Ryoga! There! Bakusai tenketsu! Ryoga! Well done, Ryoga! I have you now, Ranma! I did it! The day is here.
Ranma, you will be as blood-red as this sunrise! Ranma-- Are you all right--? I've awaited this day, Ranma! Hold it! It's no fair to tie up a girl in her sleep! What's this for? Patience.
This won't take long.
Understand, you two? The winner gets the right to date Akane.
So if Ryoga wins, he goes steady with Akane.
And son-in-law marries Shampoo.
A happy ending for everyone.
Look here, Granny-- I get it.
That's why you sided with Ryoga.
Saotome! I put myself through this rugged mountain training just to defeat you! Today I will finish this for good! Prepare to die! Let's do it! Your defense is still full of holes! Your back-talk ends here! Some kinda smoke screen? Ranma looks like the favorite in this match.
Ryoga is at the center of the blast, and gets hit with debris.
On the other hand, Ranma's taken no damage.
Then why did Granny teach him the Breaking-Point attack? Was all the special training for nothing? I thought Granny wanted Ryoga to win! Bit by bit, the true terror of the "bakusai tenketsu" will emerge.
Ryoga, those busted rocks are grindin' you down.
- Shut up! - This kick will put you to rest! Pushover.
W-What's that? You a mole now or what!? Your kick is no stronger than a baby's pat! What was that? You took a full-on kick and you're still okay? Impossible! Now I see! Ryoga was That training made him extremely tough! Son-in-law, do you have any final attacks to defeat Ryoga? Shaddup! My own special trainin'-- You only trained in defense, right? She's right.
- Ranma, can you win this? - What? Don't forget.
I'm the prize here.
I'm not fightin' for YOU! But if you lose, then I've got to date Ryoga-- Isn't that the way you wanted it? Listen! Ryoga is getting tired of waiting.
What was THAT for? Don't touch me! I HATE you! Ranma! Take this! Breaking-Point block! I got you now! If I block both hands, I win! Don't you get it yet!? Your kicks don't affect me.
Your power is no longer enough to defeat me! Ranma's attacks have no effect! I hate usin'this technique, but Saotome School Ultimate Technique! W-What!? Saotome School Ultimate Technique!? "You don't mean THAT, do you!?" Panicked Flight from the Enemy! Uh Hello? He ran away.
This technique has 3 elements: Run, Ruminate, and Re-engage.
So you run away until you think of something better? "You got it!" That's the dumbest ultimate technique I've ever seen! "Hey, it's harder than you'd think.
" Curse you, Ranma! Where did you run to!? I'm right here! I didn't feel a thing! Well, you're beginnin' to feel it, right? But just rebounding off trees shouldn't cause such an effect.
Dumb trick! He didn't rebound this time.
It's the Chestnuts Roasting On an Open Fire attack! You see one punch, but he hits the same spot hundreds of times.
That should work! I wonder Is it over? If this match is prolonged, my son-in-law will lose.
But-- Isn't it over? Not yet, it's not.
Come at me! H-He's some kinda monster! Putting 100 punches in one attack, you'll lose your stamina! He'll hit me sooner or later.
Geez! I gotta risk everythin'! Surrender!? Don't fall on purpose! Eat this: Bakusai tenketsu--! Ranma! Ryoga! This is the end! I I won.
Ranma! Ranma! Well, well.
Y-You jerk Makin' so much trouble for me.
What a pity.
I wanted Ryoga to win and go steady with Akane.
That's my son-in-law for you.
Why'd you teach that idiot Ryoga a dangerous trick like that? You mean this "dangerous trick"? You mean the Breaking-Point attack? Relax.
The technique was invented for civil engineers to clear rocks.
It doesn't work on people.
Did you hear me, son-in-law!? This time I'll admit my defeat like a man.
Give my best to Akane.
Farewell.
The loser leaves the field.
Those are the rules of the game.
He won't be back for a long time.
Ryoga You'll be ill if you eat that quickly.
- More! - All right.
Yep, the food's best at home! Right, Pop? Here you go.
Right on time.
Let's have dinner, P-chan.
Didn't you "leave the field," little piggy? What's with you? After P-chan finally came home! You call this admittin' defeat? What do you think you're doin'!? Cut it out, Ranma! Don't you bully P-chan!
