Best episode in quite awhile , at least I think it is!

Ukyo, a new fiance that I actually like, now that is UNUSUAL...

Akane is good too, but her constant denial of any feelings whatsoever for Ranma is starting to get a little old.

I wonder if this is indicative of what the third season's going to be like? I hope so, because this was funnier than most of season 2.

One episode of third series and I already like Ukyo, she seems to be such a great character.

I hope they think out some better plots though.

Pretty good episode. A finance that actually gets along with Ranma. I mean I know the series will gear towards Akane, but if I were Ranma, probably would ditch her for a likeable woman. My opinion.

Aww yeah, Ukyo is finally here and her introduction didn't disappoint. Genma is pretty hilarious in his irresponsibility.

This is getting really lame.
Every arc starts the same, a new girl appears, this is turning into one big never ending harem.
His father is awful, the anime would be awesome if his father is killed by an evil enemy.

Once again Ranma gets treated very unfairly, why would you beat him up for an answer he gave as a child? That's so dumb, those women should be ashamed of themselves.

Yet another good character makes her debut. Funnily enough, i finally ate okonomiyaki only some months ago and now i understand even more why they are so appreciated. Genma is great, pretty much the entire plot happens because of him and his selfishness and stupidity

Enter Ukyo! The new best girl?!

She's voiced by the late Hiromi Tsuru (Madoka Ayukawa, Bulma, Keiko Seki etc.) which automatically makes her the best girl. Ucchan's trope of dressing as a boy reminds me of Ryuunosuke but Ig she'll start living as a girl now.

An episode where Ranma didn't transform once. Wonder what Ucchan's reaction going to be to girl Ranma.

Akane will go on a date with "P-chan" in the next episode? Sheesh.

Another new character is here, being Ukyo, and I’m guessing she’s one that will be reoccurring going forward. They tried keeping the fact that she’s female hidden but it was pretty obvious because of the voice, she was a bit reminiscent of Ryuunosuke from Urusei Yatsura with this aspect but it looks like she dropped it by the end which is a bit of a shame, I liked the ponytail look but maybe the look might stick around and it’s just that she’s not “living as a man” anymore, and it must not have been that strong of a sentiment if she gave it up once Ranma found out lol.

And the brief fight Ukyo and Ranma had was fun, I liked the fact that the ring was like a grill and she was making Ranma into one of her signature okonomiyaki, Ranma got his ass whooped for a while but once he moved the fight away from the ring it was over for Ukyo. And since Ukyo was supposed to be Ranma’s fiancé before, I guess now we have a possible new love interest with Ukyo which I’m a fan of, it’s just I don’t see Ranma ending up with anyone besides Akane lol, it’ll shake things up tho. Also first post says there’s a new OP and ED but on my discs it’s the next episode with new songs, not sure what’s up with that, as well as the fact the last chunk of episodes ditched the OP for that boring intro.

I've been really enjoying this show this past week but maaaan. This has been the episode that has had me giggling and smiling the most until this point. I really like this Ukyo girl from the start, AND SHE CAN COOK OKONOMIYAKI??? Damnnnn that's almost an instant sale for me, great stuff ahead I can tell.

The best character finally appeared, YESSS.
This episode is one of my favorites and one the best ones, the first time I saw this episode I also thought she was a boy but I suspected, with this is the third time than Genma compromises Ranma but was really bad what he did to her. I like Ukyo so much, the best girl in the entire series and even when trying to be a man she is so pretty and also this first apparition is my favorite of her because being so tomboy and as a reverse trap was unique.

@pacostuart I agree. Ukyo is so much cuter and much less tsundere. Ranma better run off with her.
