Someone related to the Saotome school? Genma: You were an idiot, underestimating him... Genma: He very nearly pulled out your heart. Ranma: Dad... Ranma: Do you know the "Yamasen-ken"...? Genma: Of course I know it; it's an art that I invented. Ranma: What...? p.30 Genma: Because it was too violent, it's an art that I must have sealed up... Genma: I don't know how the rascal got his hands on the secret message with the Yamasen-ken, but... Ranma: Why is he pretending to be me, at my mother's house...? Genma: His objective is probably the secret message of the Umisen-ken, which is the opposite of the Yamasen-ken. Ranma: Umisen-ken? Ranma: Where is that secret message...? Genma: If it's been kept and not thrown away... p.31 Genma: Your mother must have it. Ranma: An art of the Saotome school... Ranma: Ma'am--! Ranma: I can't stand to let a guy like that have it!! Nodoka: Oh, come in, Ranko-chan. Nodoka: Have you come to eat with me today? Nodoka: It'll be delicious, because Ranma's come back. Ranma: Never mind that, Ma'am... Ranma: Ranko wants to see the Umisen-ken secret message. Nodoka: Umisen-ken? p.32 Nodoka: What's that? Ranma: Eh...? Boy: Shit, I can't find it! Narration: The Umisen-ken and the Yamasen-ken are opposite sides o f the same coin. Narration: (Points to Yamasen-ken secret message) Narration: They say that investigating the two secrets can become a perfect art. Boy: The secret message of the Umisen-ken... Somehow I will secretl y search it out!! p.33 Nodoka: Ranma, it's time to eat. Boy: WAH--!! Nodoka: Well, it can't be helped, being all scattered like this... Pic k it up properly later. Boy: Y-Yes. Ranma: He's a conspicuously noisy person, isn't he. Nodoka: You are a boy, after all. Boy: Good, I wasn't found out. Ranma: Why wasn't he found out? Nodoka: Ranko-chan, when dinner's over, let's get into the bath togethe r, OK? Ranma: Eek! Ranma: I just remembered some urgent business, goodbye. Nodoka: Eh? p.34 Nodoka: Oh, yes. Nodoka: Ranma, go after Ranko-chan. Nodoka: Give her this ribbon. Nodoka: I bought it because I thought it would look good on Ranko-chan. Boy: Sheesh. Boy: Not here any more... Boy: What a fast-moving girl. Boy: Hm? Boy: Who is she...? Boy: That way of moving... Boy: She's not just anybody!! p.35 Ranma: In that state, mother really doesn't know about the Umisen-ken. Ranma: Well, where in the world is the secret message?! Genma: You're back, Ranma? Ranma: Damn it... p.36 Ranma: Why do I, her true son, have to run away from my mother? Genma: That's an unspoken promise, Ranma. Ranma: I didn't make that kind of promise!! Boy: Wha... Boy: The guy from yesterday!! Boy: Could he be the genuine Saotome Ranma?!

Ranma: Kumon...? Ryu: Shall I destroy your mother by telling her that you're her real son? Ranma: Y-You... Ranma: I'll kill you!! Ryu: Heh! p.42 Ranma: You fell like running away?!! Ryu: Because I failed to stop you the other day, let's settle it. Ranma: If I win, I'll have you get out of my mother's house. Ranma: All right?! Ryu: Heh... Ryu: Don't you have great self-confidence? p.43 Ranma: Because I've already seen through your Yamasen-ken!! Ryu: Oho. Ranma: In the Yamasen-ken, all of the first yells are... Balloon: DON'T MOVE!! Ranma: It's extremely simple after you've stopped your opponent's move s with a loud voice. Ranma: Punching in after forcibly prying open your opponent's guard, n amely, an art of pure strength... p.44 Ryu: Indeed... If you've seen through that far... Ryu: AH - MOTHER!! Ranma: Wha...?

Ranma: Umi... sen... ken... p.47 Genma: The Umisen-ken and the Yamasen-ken are two sides of the same co in; however... Genma: The Umisen-ken is a higher art. Ranma: Teach me the Umisen-ken! I'll beat the guy! Genma: I mustn't teach you. Genma: The Umisen-ken, the same as the Yamasen-ken, is an evil art tha t should be sealed up. Genma: As soon as I find the secret message, I'll burn it!! Ryu: Don't you know? Or haven't you investigated it...? Ryu: Whichever is fine. Ryu: Until I get my hands on the Umisen-ken, I'll take the son's pla ce. Ranma: Grrr... Ryu: Don't go near your mother's house. Ryu: I'll tell her what you really are. p.48 Ranma: * pant, pant * Ranma: * pant * Ranma: (2) D-Damn it... Nodoka: Ranko-chan... Nodoka: Isn't it Ranko-chan?! Nodoka: What happened?!

Ryu: The man who WAS the inheritor of the Kumon Doujou... Genma: (2) Wha-What a twist of fate... p.52 Ranma: DAD!! Soun: Ranma, those wounds... Akane: By that Ryu guy...?! Genma: Do you have the confidence to beat the guy using the Umisen-ken , Ranma...? Ranma: I've gotten to feel like learning it, damned old man. p.53 Part 4 - Special Study!! Umisen-ken p.54 Genma: Originally, the evil art of the Saotome school Umisen-ken, whic h had to be sealed... Genma: I will dare to initiate you into its mysteries. Genma: I won't teach it to you but once. Ranma: Once should be enough. Soun: Sealing even us out of the Doujou... Sign: Don't Peek! - Saotome Genma Akane: It really is an art forbidden outside the family, isn't it. p.55 Genma: If the Yamasen-ken is a hard art, with large movements and forc ibly dependent on strength... Genma: The Umisen-ken is the art of softness. Genma: Smaller... Quieter... Genma: It requires higher technical skill. Genma: Now, then... Come at me from anywhere. p.56 Soun: Hm?! Soun: From inside the Doujou... Soun: All signs of Saotome have disappeared?! Ranma: This posture... Ranma: Just like a ghost... Ranma: Go, Dad!! p.57 Ranma: Eh...?!

I'll take back my mother! Genma: The history between me and the Kumon Doujou...? Akane: But... Ryu: My real name is Kumon Ryu. Ryu: The man who WAS the inheritor of the Kumon Doujou... Akane: Why didn't Ryu inherit his Doujou? Genma: Phew... Genma: The reason is extremely simple. p.60 Genma: Because my Yamasen-ken, ended up erasing the Kumon Doujou itsel f from this world. Soun: Wh-What?!! Soun: To bury one school of fighting from this world... Genma: For that Kumon Doujou... Genma: There COULDN'T have been an inheritor... Voice: Ryu! Voice: Search for the secret message of the Umisen-ken! p.61 Voice: Umisen-ken, Yamasen-ken... If one understands both arts, even reconstruction of the Doujou won't be a dream. Voice: All... right...? Ryu: Father, Father--!! Ryu: Even though I've searched the house, I can't find it. And if s o... Nodoka: Ranma--. Nodoka: Dinner time--. Ryu: I'm very sorry, but... Ryu: There's nothing to do but throttle a confession out of you...? p.62 Nodoka: What's the matter, Ranma? Ryu: Sheesh - I'm still a naive kid, too. Nodoka: Oh, that feels good. Thank you, Ranma.

Genma: Although he's my son, he's a dreadful rascal!! Genma: By just making him eat that trick once... Genma: He's splendidly seen through the real nature of the Umisen-ken? !! Akane: Wh-Which means, these are all... Soun: Special teachings of the Umisen-ken!! Nabiki: A hundred thousand problems caused. Akane: It certainly is an evil art. Soun: Seal it up again at once. Akane: Geez... Akane: Can he beat Ryu with that kind of special instruction? Ranma: Akane. p.66 Akane: Ranma?! Where are you?! Ranma: I'm in the middle of practicing the Umisen-ken. Ranma: The truth is, I have a favor to ask you... Akane: All right. Akane: All right, Ranma, so... Show your face for a minute. Ranma: What? Akane: Ranma... p.67 Akane: Fight hard, Ranma. Because I'm supporting you. Ranma: Yeah... Ranma: Akane... Akane: But... Akane: I'd like to get you to choose the time and place of your practi cing more carefully! Akane: So, what's this favor?
