Chapter
16: 恨んで当然
Uran de tozen
(He's Got a Beef)
Ryoga explains how he followed Ranma to China and found himself at Jusenkyo. While standing on the edge of a cliff a girl and a panda knocked him off and he plummeted into one of the magical springs. After he came out, he had been transformed into a piglet and was taken by the panda to the Jusenkyo Guide's home where he was almost cooked alive before changing back. Ranma quickly points out that it sounds like the panda and girl are to blame, not him. When a large panda comes into the bathroom they both realize who the girl and panda were. Ranma sprays Ryoga to try and calm him down, and then he chases the pig into the hallways. Akane grabs Ranma's breast to make him stop and then takes the pig to bed with her. Ranma later tries to break in and beat up Ryoga, who is still a pig and is sleeping with Akane, but not before Akane wakes up. The next morning Ranma's late night escapade into Akane's room is the talk of the breakfast table.
