Volume 3 (Blue Cover)

Lips at War: Before the match, Mikado promises he'll take the lips of Akane Tendo sometime during the match, and Ranma now has to watch out for his repeated attempts to kiss Akane as well as concentrate on the match. The two pairs clash as the match begins (with ryoga/P-chan as the prize), and Ranma seems to be doing well (he somehow learned how to skate in that period before the match). However, after a particularly brazen attempt by Mikado to kiss Akane, Ranma angrily vows to finish off Mikado, reavealing he's Akane's fiancee in the process...

I'll Never Let Go: Akane and Ranma have to avoid the Golden Pair's deadly Couple Cleaver attack, and do so, at Ranma's expense. An seriously injured Ranma struggles to get up while Akane tries to stop him. However, "Charlotte" has his own way of interfering, and when his plan to pair with Akane fails, he ends up being paired with Onna-Ranma, of all people! Now Ryoga and Onna-Ranma have to team up, and the real battle begins - and not just between the two teams...

Burning the Bridges: The match continues (after a brief change of costume) for Ryoga and Onna-Ranma. The "Golden Pair" executes their deadly "Couple Cleaver" again, and it almost succeeds - but both Ryoga and Onna-Ranma get up from it mainly unbruised. And then, in the middle of the match, of all times, Ryoga challenges Onna-Ranma to a duel...

Ryoga Explodes!: Ryoga and Onna-Ranma are now fighting each other, to the surprise of Akane and the rest of the people in the arena. In the process of the duel, however, the rink breaks open, revealing a pool of icy water underneath. Ryoga has to prevent himself from falling in the water as well as fight Ranma, and when Mikado almost knocks him in, Ryoga somehow summons the strength to totally knock out Mikado and keep himself above the water. The resulting avalanche buries Onna-Ranma, and Ryoga thinks he's won....until Ranma somehow claws himself out of the icy mass....

The Waters of Love: Thanks to Ryoga (and Azusa, for that matter) Furinkan high has won the match witht he "Golden Par", but Ryoga and Onna-Ranma are still fighting it out viciously over the pool of ice and water. The match only ends when a swimming-impaired Akane falls into the water, prompting Ryoga (as P-chan) and Ranma to dive in and save her. Now, thankfully, the grueling Martial Skating Match is over, but Onna-Ranma's got no time to relax because he/she's got a new enemy - Shampoo, a female Chinese Amazon who's out to kill Onna-Ranma...

Kiss of Death: Onna-Ranma is barely able to avoid Shampoo's attack in the locker room by hiding in one of the lockers, and later Ranma is able to tell Akane why Shampoo is after him/her. It appears that Shampoo is after Ranma because Ranma (in girl form at the time) defeated her in a fight. According to Chinese Amazon law, an Amazon must not stop chasing an outsider who defeats her until she's dead, and that spells trouble for the female Ranma. If Ranma thought _this_ predicament was bad enough, though, just wait until he finds out what the Amazon law says about being defeated by male outsiders...especially when Ranma does just that upon finding out Shampoo is in the Tendo Dojo...

You I Love: Ever since Shampoo gave a certain show of affection to her supposed future husband Ranma, Akane's been bitten by the green-eyed monster of jealousy. Meanwhile, though, since Shampoo is unaware that the female Ranma and the male Ranma are one and the same, Shampoo always seems to be glomping onto "him" half the time and trying to kill "her" the other half, making for a really difficult situation for poor Ranma...

Akane Gets Shampooed: When Shampoo tries to make sweet and sour pork out of a certain little black pig for her "husband" Ranma to eat, it's the last straw for Akane. Akane ends up fighting Shampoo, but the Chinese girl ends up taking something very important to Akane...

Shampoo Cleans Up: Now that Akane's suffered Shampoo's memory loss attack, she doesn't remember anything about Ranma! According to Dr. Tofu, Shampoo has used the Xi Fa Xiang Gao technique, a deadly shiatsu technique which combines a certain herbal shampoo and the pushing of pressure points on the head to manipulate memory! With Akane (forcibly) in tow, Ranma frantically looks for the herbal shampoo that can cure Akane's selective amnesia... it's too bad that Ranma doesn't know that Shampoo's a temporary nurse at Tofu's clincic...

Formula #911: Akane still can't remember anything about Ranma, even when, to her surprise, she finds out he lives with her. But when Shampoo attempts to take advantage of Akane's malady by showing up and trying to glomp onto Ranma, Akane somehow miraculously produces a conditioned reflex to her fiancee being hugged (i.e. hitting him), causing Shampoo to nearly use the technique on her again. Ranma finds out later from Dr. Tofu that the counter-shampoo formula for the herbal shampoo Shampoo used is #911, and when Ranma finds out that Shampoo has the shampoo, Ranma tries to make a "bargain" with Shampooo - one that might end up hurting him more than helping him....

Bie Liao (Goodbye): Ranma's willing to do almost anything to get the antidote shampoo to Shampoo's memory loss technique - even if it means that Ranma has to ask Ryoga to "almost kill" him to fulfill the bargain he made (he had agreed to get the shampoo in exchange for Onna-Ranma's supposed "near death"). Despite failing to get "almost killed" by Ryoga, Soun, and Genma, however, Ranma manages to bring Akane's memory back, and just in time, too, because Shampoo shows up to make another attempt on the newly-cured Akane's life! It seems the only way for Ranma to stop all of this is to reveal to Shampoo the secret curse he holds. But what effect will it have on the Chinese Amazon, when she finds out the man she is supposed to marry is also the one she is bound by law to kill...?
