Ohh so this episode is kind of a breather for the fighting and all but nonetheless, still good flow. Now we know why Ryoga is so pissed - aside from being "stood up" 😂 Is it jealousy though? Ahh I have the same questions, Akane.
This one hits a bit differently. After all the high-energy chaos with Ryoga, the story takes a breath to deal with the actual consequences of that fight.
It's so cute watching Ranma and Akane skirt around each others' feelings through bickering. I don't typically enjoy romance-adjacent shows but this really brings out the best between them. Ryoga's involvement also adds depth to their relationship and further complicates things in a good way. It'll be fun seeing how it allnpans out for them in the later episodes.
