Volume 8 (Dark Turquoise Cover)

"Okonomiyaki" Means "I Love You": Meet Ukyou Kuonji, a new student at Furinkan High. Where did Ukyou come from, and why is Ukyou after Genma and Ranma with a vengeance? Ukyou beats up Genma, and then goes after Ranma with a grudge that goes all the way back to Ranma's early childhood, when Ukyou was robbed of honor by the unknowing Ranma. Ranma's totally clueless as to why Ukyou would be so mad at him, and the frustration on Ukyou's part causes her to challenge Ranma to a fight after school...

Saucy Reply: A match on a giant hotplate is only the beginning of Ranma's troubles, as Ukyou furiously attacks Ranma with all the pent-up fury that has resided within for ten years. Ranma takes all that he can before lauching an angry counterattack on the surprised Ukyou, and when Ukyou flees, Ranma follows. However, Ranma's about to find that there's definitely more to Ukyo Kuonji than he thinks!

Ukyo's Secret: It turns out, according to Genma, that Ukyou is really a girl, and that she was to be Ranma's fiancee, even though Genma had already made an arrangement with the Tendos. However, Genma had no intention of going through with the deal, and made off with the okonomiyaki cart that was the dowry. Ukyou had thus promised revenge. After a severe beating from most of the female Furinkan High population, a guilty Ranma tries to make up with Ukyou, and ends up making an offhand remark about her being cute, much to the embarassment of Ukyou and the jealousy of Akane. Ukyou ends up making up with Ranma, and now it appears Ranma has yet another fiancee to deal with...

Ryoga vs. Ukyo: It's the next day after the Ukyou incident and everyone has heard about Ranma's new fiancee, including a very angry Ryouga, who attacks him. After a double team by Ukyou and Ranma, however, Ryouga ends up in the school hospital. Ukyou happens to see Ryoug depressed about his feelings for Akane and promises to set Ryouga and Akane up for a date to help him...

Love Letters in the Sauce: Ukyou writes a love letter on an okonomiyaki to deliver to Akane, supposedly from Ryouga, in the hopes that the two will hit it off and she can have "Ran-chan" all to herself. A random occurence which ruins part of the letter, however, has Akane thinking the meeting is a challenge from Ukyou! Akane shows up for a supposed duel, but is surprised to find out that she's on a date with Ryouga instead. Meanwhile, a jealous Ranma finds out about Ukyou's plan and makes preparations to foil it himself..

Ryoga's What?!: As everyone's about to find out, Ukyou's plot to set up Ryouga and Akane doesn't necessarily go as planned, and things get worse when a jealous Ranma disguises him/herself as Ryoga's fiancee. Ryouga's unsure of what to do, and an argument between Akane and Ranma causes Akane to go on a date with Ryouga to spite Ranma...

At Long Last...the Date!: It's a dream situation for Ryouga as he finally gets to go on a date with Akane. However, neither of them are aware of Ranma and Ukyou observing in the shadows...and on top of all that, a lake of cold water isn't the best place for Ryoga to be in a situation like this...especially when Ryouga's "fiancee" decides to make a re-appearance...

Happosai Days are Here Again: Ranma and co. decide to go take a vacation on the beach and just relax for awhile, and in all good fun Ranma and Shampoo attempt to set up Shampoo's great-grandmother Cologne and the old perverted Happosai. However, this proves to be a mistake when it's shown that Happosai stole an heirloom from Cologne a long time ago - a treasure that has three magic pills on it. As Happosai escapes, Cologne ominously warns Ranma, Shampoo, and Akane about the deadly treasure...

One Moment to Love: After Cologne explains the effect of the treasure Happosai has stolen, it's clear that the whole female cast had better watch out. You see, each of the three pills, when taken, causes the user to fall in love with the first person of the opposite sex they see. One pill's effectlasts a few minutes, another a day, and the last, a lifetime. Because Ranma actually happens to fall in love with Cologne, of all people, after accidentally taking one of the pills, the pills' effects are proven to be true. It's a race to see who can take advantage of the pills as Happosai, Shampoo and Ranma all try to get the precious treasure for themselves...

I Won't Fall in Love!: Akane's accidentally swallowed one of the pills, and without knowing which pill it is, yet! Ranma's got to keep Akane from looking at any men until a cure can be found. Fate seems to almost work against Ranma, though, when practically the entire major male cast come looking for Akane. Ranma better find a way to cure Akane, even if it means getting her to fall in love with him...

Abduction of...Akane?: Akane's new stuffed pig gets kidnapped by a returning Mousse, and at the same time, Ranma, Akane, and Shampoo are mysteriously invited to the circus. The three decide to go to the circus in order to get Akane's stuffed pig back, and Onna-Ranma becomes the unwilling subject of a crcus trick involving a very familiar-looking duck and some knives...

Duck, Ranma, Duck!: It turns out that Mousse has acquired his own Jusenkyo curse, and has brought back some of the cursed water in order to get Ranma with it. After an unsuccessful attempt to splash Ranma with the waters, Mousse kidnaps Akane instead, and is threatening to use the cursed waters on her unless Ranma comes in time to save her...
