Ranma Nibunoichi" or "Ranma 1/2" is possibly my longest favorite anime show. It's basically about Ranma Saotome, the heir of the Saotome School of Anything-Goes Martial Arts, aka The School of Indiscriminate Grappling, who is engaged against his will by his father. His new fiancee is Akane Tendo, the youngest daughter of his father's fellow martial artist friend. Ranma, however, was cursed while training in Jusenkyo, China, and so now whenever he gets splashed by cold water, he becomes a she! The only way to turn back to a guy, although temporarily, is to douse himself with hot water.
This is a sonnet I wrote in class while extremely bored.
*****
Ranma was engaged to Tendo's daughter
to unite Dojos, their parents had said.
Now thanks to a curse, he can't touch water
Oh what shall he do? The town wants him dead!
Kuno, Ryouga, and Mousse want his hide
for letching with Shampoo and Akane,
while four girls battle to be Ranma's bride;
so he turns to she and then runs away!,
in search of the fabled Jusenkyo,
the pool that had cursed him in the first place
but slowly he's come to like Miss Tendo
You're kawaiikunee, he says to save face!
He can't bare his heart for he's to proud to show
and though they don't see it, their love would grow.
