==Appearance==
==Personality==
==History==
Ukyo is introduced in the middle of rejecting Tsubasa’s advances when she was bowled over by Perfume chasing after Mikado. Furious she chased after them and threw a spatula at Perfume activating her sensitive nervous system.
Ukyo took perfume back to her apartment to patch her up. Perfume introduced herself and took her to see Ranma after revealing that she knew him. When they arrived at the dojo much to her surprise and anger Ranma is happy to see her. She attacks a surprised Ranma only to be stopped by Shampoo.
Ranma told Shampoo to let him handle things and continued to dodge an angry Ukyo’s strikes while trying to get her to explain why she was so angry. Eventually he decided to force the issue by disarming her.
The commotion had attracted the attention of Genma and upon recognizing the teenaged Ukyo immediately ran away. A furious Ranma chased after him while Perfume checked on Ukyo as an angry Shampoo watched.
Assuring Perfume she was fine she went after Ranma. She caught up to them just as Genma was telling Ranma that he stole her father’s cart. Realizing that Ranma really didn’t know she focused her anger on Genma who explained the engagement to Ranma. Ukyo in turn finally revealed to him that she is a girl.
Genma tried to thrust the blame onto Ranma but Ukyo wasn’t buying it though Ranma stopped her from clobbering Genma because that was his job.
Sorry for what his father did, Ranma assured Ukyo that she wasn’t ruined for marriage. This combined with his comment on how cute she was, caused Ukyo to decide to let bygones-be-bygones and leaves with Perfume to go scout some restaurant locations. She ended up picking a place a couple blocks down from the Nekohanten.
The next day Ukyo was eager to restart their relationship only to be told about his relationship with Shampoo. Perfume found her crying to herself and comforted her by giving her some steam buns she made. However be for she left she whispered “wo ai ni” into Ukyo’s ear.
She ended up asking for Ranma, Akane and Shampoo’s their help. The fact that she had technically defeated Perfume complicated things. Shampoo suggested that they try and set her up with Mouuse. As he was planning on leaving soon Ukyo offered him a job at her restaurant. Unfortunately she quickly realized it wasn’t going to work after watching the two confront each other when Perfume came to visit.
Perfume confirmed that she considered Ukyo her husband when Tsubasa burst in to ask her on a date. When she chased after Tsubasa for calling her ugly Ukyo was stopped by Mousse from going after them. He assured Ukyo that Perfume was just trying to scare Tsubasa. He also revealed that he was aware that she was a girl and warned her about Perfume’s reaction.
Mousse wasn’t happy about learning why she cross dressed wondering why so many women were attracted to Ranma. The two comforted each other because of their mutual experience of falling in love with people who had long since moved on. Ukyo also apologized for trying to set him up with Perfume.
When informed by Perfume that Shampoo had disappeared and she couldn’t get ahold of the Tendo’s Ukyo had Mousse go to cat temple she delivered to while she went to the dojo. Finding everyone unconscious she dragged them all out. By the time she finished Mousse had returned so she had him go get Dr Tofu.
He revived Ranma and Akane and learning of the Bakeneko she explained who he was and the four went to go rescue Shampoo only to be stopped by Azusa and Kodachi who were working with him. Despite working together Ukyo and Mousse couldn’t overcome Kodachi’s dirty tricks and Ukyo ended up being gassed. Sadly they weren’t able to make it in time.
Cologne decided to intervene when Perfume couldn’t convince Ukyo to marry her, where it is revealed that she is already aware of Ukyo’s true gender. When Ukyo still refused to back down she used the Full Body Cat's Tongue on her, preventing her from getting near her grill (thus leaving Ukyo unable to run her restaurant.
After being soundly defeated by Cologne when she tried to force her to undo the point Perfume agreed to help her look for a cure as she was both unaware of Cologne’s actions and unwilling to go along with it. Calming down Ukyo expressed to Perfume under no uncertain terms that she wasn’t a lesbian. Despite this Perfume learned of the Phoenix Pill and showed Ukyo the Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken.
If it wasn’t for Akane Ukyo would have given up and with her encouragement she was able to think up an alternate form of training based off the speed training she used when she was a kid. While this allowed her to use the grill there was still the matter of defeating Cologne.
Massively outclassed, especially since Cologne stacked the battlefield in her favor Ukyo was forced to use the variation of the technique she thought up with Mousse. Impressed Cologne hands over the Pill; although she comments that she isn't done with Ukyo yet. Ecstatic Ukyo took everyone out.
Ukyo took Ranma, Akane and Ryoga to Dr Tofu upon finding them unconscious in the street. When Ranma came to and informed her what happened she had to force him to stay when he attempted to go and find Shampoo despite barely being able to move. Assuring him that she would look for her.
Later she recognized Bu Xien when he came into the restaurant, Perfume recognized him as well as he had gone to the village looking for Shampoo. The two followed him hoping he’d lead them to Shampoo. Turns out Bu was hoping for this and told them to tell Ranma that he challenged him to a fight stating that he’d let Shampoo go if he lost, but Ranma would have to drink the potion of lost love. As Shampoo was surrounded by explosives they were forced to comply.
Ranma managed to defeat Bu revealing that he was actually a women and after Kodachi revealed that the explosives were fake Ukyo cut her down. Ukyo was surprised when Perfume didn’t show up until after closing. When she did only to look hadn’t slept in a week. Ukyo was horrified to learn that Cologne had been making her work of the time she spent injured.
She went to confront Cologne both for this and pushing Perfume onto her in the first place. When Cologne refused to back down on either account, Ukyo agreed to go on a date with Perfume if she gave her the night off.
She was quick to explain to an excited Perfume that they were just going out as friends. After learning that Akane and Ryoga were going to the fair as well she asked Mouse to come along as a chaperone.
The three had a good time winning dangerous fair games, from Ukyo catching piranha barehanded to Perfume winning her crystal sculptures by capturing a bunch of insects in an enclosure.
Afterwards she and Perfume went off to talk when she finally explained to Perfume that she wasn’t a lesbian and just saw her as a friend. Unfortunately such a concept was foreign to Perfume so she didn’t understand. She also pointed out that she and Ranma used to be friends and she fell in love with him. All she wanted was a chance, but Ukyo couldn’t give it to her. While Perfume could still keep up appearances for Cologne Ukyo made her point across.
Much to her surprise Perfume wanted to finish her date so they decided to go to the movies. When they returned to the restaurant and Perfume returned home Mousse finally expressed his feeling for Ukyo. After getting over her shock she realized that she wasn’t averse to seeing how things developed which was all Mousse could ask for.
When Nabiki came to Ucchan’s offering her the opportunity to join a co-operative arrangement with the other local businesses. She paid her to find a decent mate for Perfume.
Cologne came over to threaten Ukyo, implying that the consequence to Perfume would be dire. Mousse called her out for trying to scare Ukyo only for Cologne to point out that Perfume’s condition means that the council would use any excuse to get rid of her.
She also revealed she knew Mousse and Ukyo were dating by telling her she could have a concubine. This gave Ukyo pause as she always assumed it would be a match with Perfume, and Perfume alone. Luckily Bu was there to call Cologne out on her bluff pointing out that Perfume is still the best the village has had in over a generation as well as Cologne’s tenuous position with the council meaning she couldn’t do anything even if she wanted to.
When Ranma came to her and asked her to be his speaker for his wedding. Though she agreed due to her counterpart from the original universe fusing with her she was more devastated then she should have been. After learning that Shampoo had asked Mousse to be Ranma’s protector the two decided to go on a date.
When Akane came to the restaurant trying to set Mousse up with her sister Ukyo wanting to see how he’d act on a date told her that he’d go on one, leaving him confused. Perfume came across Ukyo as she was shadowing the two from afar and decided to tag along.
This allowed Ukyo to go into the restaurant the two went in without being suspicious. After small talk Ukyo asked what Perfume thought of Mousse. When she said she hated him, Ukyo who had learned from Mousse the reason why got her to see that he had changed over the years and was sorry. She confided in Perfume how strange she had been feeling lately.
Ukyo was finally discovered when she followed them to the park. However she didn’t have to explain herself since Perfume was there and she just told Mousse and Nabiki that they were on a date. Perfume was trying to seduce Ukyo using a variation of formula 612, but when she finally got upwind from her this only caused her to stop trying to be nice tell her to leave her alone.
She then went on to express her love for Mousse. He had noticed what was going on as well as the fact that Nabiki who also effected liked Perfume so before she could arranged the two to have an accident. After taking her to the hospital and making sure Perfume was ok Ukyo paid Nabiki for a job well done. Nabiki tried to deny her feeling now that the perfume had worn off, only to be shown the vial of 612B.
On the way home Ukyo admitted to Mousse what she had been doing though she still called him out for his accident even if it did work out in the end.
Ukyo was invited Kasumi’s bachelorette party and after an eventful night which ended in a bar brawl she was taken home by Mousse. When Shampoo and Akane reappeared in their room along with the Original Ranma, after finding the Bracelets of Friendship in their room Mousse Bracelets theorized that he was from another dimension. As that was their best guest they let the three rest so that they could figure things out. When the original Ranma woke up what remained of the conscious occupants of the Tendo home gathered together in the common room.
Knowing that there was no point in lying with Soon Li there the Original Ranma explained how he tried to rescue the Original Akane and Shampoo only to ended transporting these ones to his universe and how he believed they in fact were the originals. Ukyo did not take finding out about being effectively possessed for a time very well, and listened to the rest of the tale with a scowl. Mousse by contrast looked ready to kill someone.
Nodoka was quick to calm things down before they could escalate Soon Li also put her two cents in. While she didn’t believe that Akane and Shampoo were from his world, she pointed out that he at least believed it before he could argue. That didn’t explain why he was there. Ranma explained the explosion of light he saw and Mousse theorized that the overuse of the bracelets caused them to malfunction. With nothing else to do Nadoka felt it was best to wait for the others to wake to see if they had been merged with their counterpart. Though reluctant Mousse agreed to go back to the restaurant to wait at Ukyo’s insistence.
Later Ukyo found the original Ranma passed out; luckily he turned out just to be asleep when she checked on him. Now that they were alone Ranma asked Ukyo about her relationship with Mousse, this caused her to get defensive and tell him in was none of his business. Though she quickly calmed down and confirmed that the two were dating. Ranma apologized as well realizing that he was once again looking at things only from his perspective.
Ukyo allowed Ranma to vent about his confusion of things as well as his uncertainty. While she couldn’t offer any answers she did lend an ear. She also assured him that losing Akane wasn’t the end of the world using herself and his counterpart as an example. The conversation then moved to the Jewelry Store Owner Ranma was surprised that didn’t consider him an enemy just wondered what was going on. He apologized for dumping all this onto Ukyo who really didn’t mind. Their conversation was interrupted by Nodoka informing them that Perfume had woken up causing Ranma to run off to check on Akane. Knowing his counterpart was there Ukyo tried to warn him but he was gone before she could.
The Ukyo from the original merged with her for the final time, and as her memories faded she called Akane to tell her that Shampoo was in the original universe. 
==Ability==
Ukyo's fighting style is based on okonomiyaki cooking. She uses food-based techniques to confuse, stun, and disable opponents in a manner similar to classic 'ninja' tactics. She is well-known for carrying a giant spatula on her back, which she uses as a two-handed weapon to knock opponents senseless. She also wears a bandoleer full of smaller spatulas which she throws at her opponents like shuriken.
She’s shown herself to be quite versatile using the training techniques of her style to overcome the effects of the Phoenix Pill and master the Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken.
===Techniques===
* Flaming Fist: A revised version of the Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken. Ukyo wraps her hands in cloth bandages that have been soaked in cooking alcohol. So that when she performs the technique the friction causes the cloth to catch fire which she uses to attack her opponent.
==Relationship==
===Perfume===
While Ukyo does like Perfume and appreciates all that she has done for her she only sees her as a friend. It is not like Tsubasa who never listens, is over possessive and has the habit of smashing her door down, not to mention making a nuisance of himself.
