Akane Tendo
The youngest daughter of the Tendo family and the second-generation heir to the Tendo Dojo. A first-year student at Furinkan High School, she is known for her exceptional physical strength and formidable martial arts skills. Though often at odds with her fiancé, Ranma, she sometimes reveals a softer, more compassionate side beneath her fiery personality.

Ryoga Hibiki
Ranma’s former classmate and long-time rival from his days at an all-boys school. Despite his formidable strength and determination, Ryoga suffers from an extreme lack of direction, often getting hopelessly lost on his way to even the simplest destinations. While pursuing Ranma to China, he fell into Jusenkyo’s “Spring of Drowned Black Piglet,” leaving him with a peculiar curse: whenever splashed with cold water, he transforms into a small black piglet, only returning to human form with hot water.
