A Scary Thought/Tropes

*Aborted Declaration of Love: Ryoga intentionally got himself lost before Kasumi left for China. He did not have the guts to face her that one last time, least he reveal the feelings he had for her.
*Above the Influence: Tsubasa is a pragmatic case of this. Realizing that Nabiki wasn’t acting like herself he turned down her advances knowing that she’d kill him once she calmed down.
*Absence of Evidence: This is what got Saki suspicious of La Bac having initially written it off as another one of Kitsune’s conspiracy theories. Nothing about it was out of order. All records up to date and complete. Inspections on time and in order. Not even a complaint. As she stated even top of the line companies, especially a hotel, should have a complaint or two.
*Absurdly Youthful Mother: Since Amazons, generally live so long, they have gotten into the habit of having children quite late. Comb had Shampoo when she was in her late twenties, and which was considered scandalous.
*Abusive Parents: Ukyo’s father didn’t really do much to hide how much he preferred Kasumi over Ukyo.
*Accidentally Correct Writing: This is what led to the theory that the story would ultimately be crossed over with Tenjho Tenge as a lot of the techniques/styles Derekloffin creates bear many similarities with the ones in that series. For example the Particulate Matter Control technique that Cologne taught Kasumi is very similar to Hirohiko's Red Feather Power. It reached the point where he ended up using the explanation of Rhythm for his Martial Arts Dance style when this was pointed out to him. 
**Many fans believed that Mahou Sensei Negima was one of the series crossed over with this fic, due to fact that the magical system Wade created was very similar to the one in that series. However he hadn’t heard of it until it was pointed out.
*Accidental Pervert: Ukyo was trapped in her cursed form for a weak before she was able to change back due to an accident in the middle of a crowded public street. While she was ecstatic at first she quickly realized that about a hundred people were staring at her because of her lack of any clothing.
*Achievements in Ignorance: Frost accidentally gave Mousse control over his curse. It is a one in a million/billion chance that she admits she couldn’t replicate if she tried.
*Achilles' Heel: Ranko is immune to magic and while raw mana should be just as ineffective not when its mixed with ki.
*Acquired Poison Immunity The Snake Clan are damned near immune to even the deadliest of poisons.
** After three days of captivity the Psycho Serum Dool started losing its effectiveness.
*** This seems to be more of a result of Enlightenment Superpowers. After Kasumi became aware of the drug her mental discipline made the difference.
*Actually Not a Vampire: One of Kitsune’s conspires is that Frost is a vampire.
*Actually Pretty Funny: Nodoka’s joke argument for why Kasumi shouldn’t move out she would move back in anyway when she married Ranma. Kasumi couldn’t help but laugh.
**Though she didn’t let it show Kasumi found the thought of Genma turning into a pandaman amusing.
*Adaptational Attractiveness: zig zagged while Shampoo doesn’t seem to have gauged out Par Phume’s eye she does have a more visible scar on her face.
*Adaptation Displacement: Readers have compared this to A Very Scary Thought unaware that this came out first.
*Adaptation Expansion: Garnet, in name and position at least, was originally thought up by Jim Bader, although he never went in depth on exactly who Garnet was truly, although he was clearly meant to be of a villainous sort. That said, still Derekloffin deviates quite heavily from Jim's probable vision of the character. Sadly due to Death of the Author he can only guess on how Jim truly would have dealt with him. Even if you have read A Very Scary Thought, you shouldn't draw any real assumptions from such about who Garnet is, although a fair chunk of his basis will be kept.
**While Saki has also had some connection to the Nyanchiczu this story out right says that her mother is the daughter of Guan Li. 
***She also seems to have taken the place of Silk having been sent out into the world with Comb to get up to speed on various matters. As well as the fact that she ended up pregnant during this time.
*Adaptational Explanation: The explanation that Mousse was the cat that caused Kasumi to go into her panicked run that resulted in Ukyo's curse, was put in the rewrite for added clarity.
*Adaptational Intelligence: Par Phume’s mother didn’t name her Amburgris in this universe so she doesn’t have the Embarrassing Nickname of Whale Puke.
*Adaptational Heroism: Chaos is treated more as a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds then the source of all evil in the galaxy. In actuality she is an Ascended Senshi who took Queen Serenity’s death the hardest and went insane as a result.
**Toshiya Asamiya isn’t depicted as the abusive asshole he was in A Scary Thought. Though it is still left ambiguous how good of a man he was.
*Adaptational Jerkass: Cologne is even more of a jerk here than in cannon, at least in the manga she did explain things first.
*Adaptation Name Change: Ambergris is named Par Phume in this universe.
**Ukyo’s father is named Hidenori in this story
*Adaptation Origin Connection: Inverted in A Tale of Two Wallets it is revealed that Ukyo is Makoto’s old sempai, which is not the case in this universe.
*Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Ling Ling and Lung Lung are mentioned to be Frost’s cousin. There is no mention of weather or not they are Shampoo’s sisters.
*Adaptational Villainy: In the original Sukeban Deka the Dark Inspector is the Big Good, here he is a Dirty Cop.
**It looks more of a case of him being a Pragmatic Hero. Shadowloo appears to be a big reason that the Sukeban Deka project can function. While that Deal with the Devil means he can’t send in the troops he doesn’t prevent Saki from going herself and discreetly give her away to get into Hotel La Bac.
::Chun Li: I don't know your boss very well, but he strikes me as a man of conviction, no matter what he's messed up in. He may not directly help us, but I don't think he'd directly hinder us either.
** According to Word of God now that he’s discovered the Sukeban Deka manga he’s going to add aspects of it to the story’s canon. This means that unlike in A Scary Thought the Parental Favoritism she showed to Saki’s sister Miyuki.
**In universe Morgan le Fay which is why she goes by her musk name
*Adaptational Wimp: In the original Herb appeared near the middle of the series and initially curb stomped Ranma. In this universe Kasumi met Herb shortly after receiving her curse and was able to hold her own. 
**Averted after Frost destroyed the Kaisuifu causing an enraged Herb to show that I Am Not Left-Handed. Kasumi described it as a dam breaking.
**Since Kasumi was able to get Ryoga to overcome his insecurity and use his dog more he no longer gets as lost. This means he’s not as durable as he is in canon. So now, although still generally a far above average martial artist, he finds himself a fair bit out of his league with the extremely above average types in Nerima.
*Adorkable: Ranma trying to ask Kodachi out
**Shampoo was really excited to go to Disneyland
*Adult Fear: AST goes into the nature of Jusenkyo for those who don’t encounter the guide. Your suddenly in the a completely different body that most likely leaves you completely helpless and is edible. You also aren’t aware of the trigger so believe you trapped in this form. When or even if you do manage to transform back you’ll end up naked in front of who ever provided the hot water.
**You get involved in a foreign custom thinking nothing about it only latter find out that it has serious ramifications on your life. What you believed was nothing more then a celebration or party turned out to be Serious Business.
** Your family has been involved in a gruesome battle requiring a good number of those involved to be taken to the hospital. While your injuries were minor the exhaustion was particularly nasty making you unable to visit your eldest daughter who had received the worse of it. You imagination runs wild as you recover enough to visit. By the time you make it to her room you’re assuming nothing but the worst.
*Aerith and Bob: Jasmines students are Devin, Grenda, a demon who can't actually step foot on the Earthly plane, and George.
*Aesop Amnesia: Mousse once tried to manipulate Frost into fixing his eyesight so that he had a better chance with Shampoo. It turns out he’s doing the same thing with Kasumi trying to take advantage of Amazon law to marry both her and Shampoo. 
**Almost immediately after leaving the Amazon village Genma stole food from the Musk and ended up nearly getting killed.
*Agent Mulder: Despite her obsession with Area 51 a lot of Kitsune’s conspiracies turn out to be true.
*All Abusers Are Male: Frost vehemently believes this.
** Everyone just assumed that Toshiya was abusive husband and father when it was actually Natsu.
*All Just a Dream: Ranma wrote off his Not What It Looks Like moment with Kasumi as this.
**Ukyo’s wedding to Kasumi
*All Men Are Perverts: The Vice Principle was relieved upon finding out about Kasumi’s curse as it meant he didn’t have to worry about another young male teacher getting involved with the female students.
**Michiru was surprised that Kanada didn’t try and flirt with her.
*All There in the Manual: As with every other story in the Fan Verse a lot of background information is detailed in other fics. 
**In addition to The Other Wiki there is also Kitsune's Corner! which gives detailed info on the Original Character’s
*All Women Are Lustful: The Furinkan High Rhythmic Gymnastic team stopped listening to Haruka the moment the swim team was mentioned.
**Before Kasumi defeated Shampoo the Amazons were thinking up ways he could work off his dept.
**After seeing how attractive Kaneda is Azusa offered to kiss his injury to make it all better keep in mind that he was suffering from a Groin Attack. Needless to say he refused.
*Alternate Self: Ranko is the Ranma Saotome from the original Most Unlikely Of Friends universe now trapped in her cursed form.
*Alternate Timeline Ancestry: Ranma and Usagi aren’t cousins in this universe.
**furthermore Tenchi Muyo! isn’t part of the multi-crossover so Ranma has no relation to Shampoo or Cologne either.
**However it hasn’t been confirmed weather or not Cologne had a sister so Ranko could still look like her.
*We also don’t know if Genma ever had a relationship with Atsuko so it’s up in the air if Ranma and Ryoga are brothers.
***At this point Shirokuro seems to be nothing more then a regular dog.
*Alternate Universe: Ranko is from a universe based off of anime canon. Since she didn’t know who Herb was.
*Alternate Universe Reed Richards Is Awesome: Discussed in universe Canon Kasumi was an unimposing figure, ever cheerful and optimistic. She always seemed to brighten the room up a little bit when she entered, but in general she was not a person you made a big deal about. In truth, she was little more than a background fixture most the time.
**Not so with this Kasumi. Comparing the two is not like comparing night and day to be sure, but there are some striking differences which goes well beyond the simple matter of Kasumi being proficient in the martial arts. She still has that cheerful smile, but she does not display it nearly as often. Instead, she seems more introspective, as well as having an odd, and seemingly contradictory, capability of understanding nearly anything, but at other times being utterly oblivious to what should be obvious.
**Unlike Canon Kasumi, this Kasumi is the center of everyone's attention. Whether directly or indirectly, nearly everyone is tied to Kasumi. Ranma is Kasumi's fiance. Ukyo is Kasumi's rival. Kuno is Kasumi's suitor as are Ryoga and Herb. Even Ranko found herself inexplicably linked to Kasumi too, probably one of the few women in her old life that she rarely ever dealt with is now the person she is dealing with the most.
*Always Female: All Kitsunes, for nearly two thousand years, have been born as female due to a curse on their race.
*Always Second Best: Ukyo did everything she could to gain his respect... his attention. She spent hours learning to improve her cooking, hours more training to the point of exhaustion in the family's special style of fighting, everything, but he never seemed impressed. He always compared her to Kasumi and she always got ranked second best.
*Always Someone Better: Herb’s dragon nature means that he is far better then Ranma at learning other peoples techniques. Essentially it is the difference between Power Copying and Awesomeness By Analysis.
*Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Whenever the subject of manliness came up, woe be to anyone who challenged Ranma's in his mother's presence. She was absolutely impossible on the subject, and of course Ranma always ended up in the middle of things.
**Comb was rather blunt when assessing Kasumi. Shampoo finally put a stop to things when she asked Kasumi how many times they had slept together.
*Amazon Chaser: The fact she was able to hold her own against him against him is what attracted Herb to Kasumi.
**Seeing Kasumi beat up a group of thugs did nothing to sway Haruka’s attraction to her.
**Toma fell in love with Akane after she slapped him.
*Ambiguous Situation: It is unknown who or what the Kimiko in Kasumi’s Mental World is.
*Ambiguously Bi: Nabiki was affected by Lemon’s beauty while Yotogi wasn’t 
**It worked on Ukyo as well
**Akane according to Kitsui
*Amnesiac God: Usagi is the reincarnation of Cosmos finally awakened after destroying her star seed.
*An Aesop: Marriage is a partnership where spouses make up for each others weaknesses.
*And I Must Scream: Shadow Lady is as described by the Doctor trapped in her own body, only able to obey.
**The Ascended Senshi placed Usagi in a barrier where she was aware of everything, but unable to make any decisions based on that knowledge.
*And Now You Must Marry Me: Cologne warned Kasumi’s suitors to avert this as Kasumi wouldn’t stand for Shampoo being forced into any further marriages. Saying that she would sooner live as a man then to allow that to happen.
*And Then What?: This was Chun Li’s reaction after Rose was defeated she didn’t know what to do with her, Shadow and Shadow Lady.
**Kasumi also didn’t know what to do once she realized that she had control over Shadow and Shadow Lady.
*And You Thought It Was a Game: This was the mechanics behind Usagi’s Lotus Eater Machine
*Animal Lover: Ranma has a habit of taking in strays.
*Answers to the Name of God: There 'gods in name only' who are strong enough to seem godly, but in truth are just powerful beings with no divine spirit giving them true divine authority.
**While Soap explained the nature gods to Kitsune hearing this strengthened her belief that there were Ancient Astronauts. Something Soap couldn’t really argue against.
*Antagonist Abilities: Hotel La Bac is equipped with Anti-Magic.
**Ironically since it involves Magic Ranko is unaffected.
*Anti-Magic: A natural ability held by within Ranko. Due to the Soon Li of her original universe manipulating her aura she is able to produce a field of energy that enables her to disrupt mana fields resulting in most magics being cancelled out and not able to affect her or things she is in contact with.
*Appeal to Inherent Nature: This was Shampoo’s response to Akane’s Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse. She even accused the Japanese of being Always Lawful Good. Shampoo’s entire standing in the village depends on Kasumi staying traped as a man while she cares about Kasumi she won’t be the instrument of her own destruction, by teaching her the Dragon Fang Fist so that she could defeat Ukyo.
*Arbitrarily-Large Bank Account: Averted while Herb’s personal funds were substantial they were exhausted in his search for a cure, and he can’t send for more money because of his curse.
* Arbitrary Skepticism: Makoto is a Sailor Senshi one of which is Rei a Miko who is able to ward off enemies in her civilian form using Paper Talismans. Yet she discounted Ki Manipulation as just a bunch of silliness.
**Haruka a Sailor Senshi doesn’t believe in a magic pill that can make her love the first person she sees.
**After everything shes been through Ranko dismissed the thought that Kasumi had some bizarre karma thing going that just attracted others to her as too metaphysical to be considered.
**Averted Saki is willing to believe anything at this point even Elvis impersonating yeti.
::Sampai: You can't be taking her seriously, can you?
::Saki: After what I have been witness to the last few months, frankly, Bigfoot impersonating Elvis seems downright mundane. I mean, seriously, one of our group is a ghost.
**Zig-zagged Kitsune was shocked when So Pu told her to think of Fae as minor deities. However when she called her out on this given that she was a Conspiracy Theorist, Kitsune told her that everyone knew that gods were Ancient Astronauts.
*Armoured Closet Gay: In contrast to her brother Kitsui was in major denial about her sexuality. She went out with half a dozen guys, and always told herself that the last one just wasn't the right sort for her. In her determination to find the right guy, she made herself miserable.
*Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Downplayed Rippa is actually quite humble outside of battle. However while fighting he really played up being a Smug Super.
::Rippa: Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask earlier, but which would you prefer, quick or slow?
::Ranma: What are you babbling about?
::Rippa: Your defeat: quick and embarrassing, or slow and painful?
** Kitsu however plays this completely straight to the point where she intentionally lost 20 points just to tell her brother not to attempt an Opponent Switch.
** Ranko was certain that her Anti-Magic would allow her to easily deal with Toma. 
***To be fair her confidence was well founded making Toma more an example of this for thinking he could defeat her with a technique he hadn’t fully mastered.
*Art Attacker: Indiscriminate Martial Arts Graffiti
*Artificial Outdoors Display: The Principle Kuno set up a tropical beach in the gym.
*Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Ascended Senshi
*Ask a Stupid Question: Usagi asking Takeshi if he was alright after being blasted by the Happo-Tsurisen-Gaeshi. 
::Takeshi: I won't dignify that with an answer.
** Lampshaded when Minako asked Hinako if she was out of her mind.
**When Usagi complained that she would have nobody to talk to if Makoto went back to the restaurant. Makoto asked what about Kotori but realized it was a stupid suggestion.
*The Assimilator: The Inquisitor appears to be this.
*Asskicking Equals Authority: This is why Kasumi was initially given a job as a teacher. After hearing how she got Kuno to stand down a rarity in of itself the vice principle wanted her to be the school's peace keeper.
*Astral Projection: Spirit Walking. With this, while sleeping, Shampoo may separate a potion of her spirit and move around in spiritual form. The spirit form is essential invisible unless Shampoo wills it to be visible, and can travel at great speeds, unimpeded by physical obstacles. Lacking any physical body, Shampoo is completely dependent on her spirit sense in this form, and essential invulnerable to physical harm, although she currently lacks the ability to manipulate objects in this form, likely as her Telekinesis is still not strong enough to allow such. It should be noted that this is a split of her spirit, as she is still fully aware of her body and what is occurring with it.
*Attack Reflector: Kasumi learned Soul Reflect from Rose.
*Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny: Not only is Happosai The Illegible his description of his technique still makes the scroll nearly impossible to read. Half the time he'd go off topic into some wild, and very disturbing, fantasies about ladies' underwear, or worse.
*Author Avatar: Derek Loffin the rightful Guardian of the Timestream.
*Awful Wedded Life: A curse of the Fox Clan is that they can never find love with a women and since they are a One-Gender Race if they can’t find a male mate they a dropped into the spring of drowned boy to perpetuate their clan. However this doesn’t cure the curse make such an action a Fate Worse Than Death.
*Awesome, but Impractical: The enchantment Frost used to fix Mousse’s sight, bypassed his eyes completely, and since they aren't doing any work anymore, they'll soon grow even weaker than they were. If Mousse loses the spell for any reason, he'll be left practically blind. 
**Frost replaced Tofu’s door with a castle door when attempting to repair it. It had become a bit of a talking piece in the neighborhood since then, although of late the novelty was fading in favor of the inconvenience.
*Awesomeness By Analysis: Ranma was quickly able to figure out how the Neko-ken worked.
** Martial Arts Dance allows practitioners to dodge and counter their opponent's attacks by learning their "rhythm", which allows them to predict the opponent's next move.
**Ranma noticed how uneasy Ranko became after he mentioned how impressed he was at Herb handling his Shapeshifter Mode Lock so well.
**Ranko was easily able to determine the weakness of Kankaho. Though given who she is this isn’t much of a surprise.
**By reading Toma’s she’s able to use Quake in order to block his ki attack making Kankoho useless as she’s immune to mana.
*Ax Crazy: The rogue youma in a addition to setting up a Superhuman Trafficking ring, is a Bad Boss who set up a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness failsafe on all of her men. Finally when Ken insulted her she inflicted Cold-Blooded Torture as revenge.
*Bad Liar: Ranko luckily Ukyo didn’t care enough to inquire any further.
*Badass Normal: On a purely physical level Ranma is about as skilled as Herb-chan maybe a little more.
*Badass Pacifist: Kasumi unleashed the Hadoken as a show of force to get Herb to calm down.
*Back In My Day: Cologne while giving Shampoo The Talk mensioned how she didn’t have her first child until she was 50.
*Backstory Invader: Kuno believes that Kanade is this since there are no records of him yet claim he is their cousin.
*Bag of Holding: Grenda has one
*Bait and Switch: Hitchi had jokingly made it seem that his uncle had died as a result of Murder the Hypotenuse only to reveal that it was actually his granddaughter who had been nursing him for several months when he passed away.
** What initially looks like Frost fighting a monster is actually her playing a video game.
**After going into Ranma’s room and finding his walls plastered with drawing of Kasumi and Shampoo that ranged from just revealing, to scandalous, after pausing for a few seconds Nodoka sqweeed about how manly her son was while also complementing his artistic skills.
**When Herb went to Sorora for relationship advice it seemed like a set her up for her to give him a What the Hell, Hero? for using her as a Mundane Utility. Since his predecessors had come to her for things like military strategy, complex diplomatic negotiations, social reforms, legal issues, and various questions on the martial or mystical arts. Only for her to tell him that that stuff was child’s play and answering his question would be tough.
**Kasumi finally put two and two together after Sailor Uranus rescued her. Haruka and Makoto are both part of the oddest fan club she’s ever seen
**Kitsune didn’t go to Frost’s graduation ceremony to get evidence of magic. She went to get evidence that Elvis impersonators are actually Bigfoot.
*Bait the Dog: When Herb was annoyed at all the mages having mini conversations Grenda answered that they knew that the Kitsune’s wouldn’t attack them. Before adding that they didn’t care about Herb.
*Balanced Harem: Discussed after Kasumi accepted her marriage to Shampoo Cologne felt that given her skill anything else was just icing on the cake. This meant she had no real preference for any of Kasumi’s male suitors, or for that matter against any of them, becoming Kasumi and Shampoo eventual husband. They each show potential, and have their particular talents and problems. Cologne could easily settle for any of them. But, her own preferences in this matter are not the subject at hand. 
**Averted as a consequence of living at San Cheng Huang Herb gets the most screen time and knows the most about Kasumi. Ranma didn’t know the full story involving Haruka and wasn’t involved in rescuing Lemon.
**Also Shampoo is the only one who is officially in a relationship with her.
**At the same time Ranma is the only one who has seen the docile Neko-Kasumi
*Barrier Maiden: Rhadamanthus acted as this while waiting for Usagi to be judged, by placing her into a state of suspended animation. However Usagi’s power was so difficult to contain that she was forced to stay stationary herself. She stayed like that for about a week before Eris arrived to ease her burden.
*Barrier Warrior: Shadow Moon she can also use it offensively by transforming it into a whip 
**Kitsui is a defensive warrior who technique Rhythm Alteration involves changing the flow of battle the way she desires. Her Ultimate Defense revolves around projecting an aura of pure in-hostility. It repels hostility, preventing even the lines of intent from connecting with her. So long as she keeps up up, no one can intentionally attack her.
*Bash Brothers: A literal example Akane and Ranma like to tease each other.
*Bathtub Bonding: Shampoo got Kasumi to do this with her.
*Batman Gambit: In an effort to get Ukyo to stop being Ranma’s pet without revealing her curse Kasumi suggested that Ranma take her to the vet, believing that it would cause Ukyo to give her deception a second thought. Ukyo also likely hadn’t seen a doctor to check on her cursed form. So if she persisted it was for the best anyway.
**The Doctor hired a group of men to kidnap Karin Kanzuki and Sakura. In actuality he just wanted to see Kasumi in action. So not only does he get what he want because they failed he doesn’t have to pay them.
**By apologizing for Lemon’s actions as well as strategically surrendering the Fox clan took the amazons out of the equation in their bid to get Herb.
*Bavarian Fire Drill: Azusa was able to kidnapped Ukyo using this after finding the flying Ranma write up she just went to the dojo and claimed she was hers. It worked since Ranma was distracted helping Akane train and Genma was the only one there.
*The Beast Master Ranma was excited upon being told that Ukyo was actually a wolf seeing himself as this.
*Beat: Ranma realizing that Happosai stole the female student’s panties.
*Beauty Equals Goodness: This was Makoto’s justification upon meeting Kanada. Such a gorgeous man couldn’t be a youma. It must have replaced his cousin, like the Youma that had taken Naru's mother's place. Or, maybe it hypnotized him and the other people involved like Chibi-Usa had Usagi's parents when she had first come to the past.
*Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Averted while the village healers fixed her Par Phume still has the scar Shampoo gave her.
*Became Their Own Antithesis: The Musk were initially rebels who rose up to fight against the oppressiveness of the Amazons. Now they treat women as little more then slaves. The irony being that the Amazon’s did learn from their mistakes and while Men still can’t hold positions of power they are treated much better.
*Because You Were Nice to Me: Ranma is the first person to show Ukyo kindness in a long time. Of course the fact he thought she was a stray dog he’d found shouldn’t matter.
*Becoming the Mask: After Rose’s initial possession by Bison's soul after his death she was Fighting From the Inside using her Soul Power to weaken his Psycho Power. However the Shun Goku Satsu is not a physical attack, but rather it attacks the soul itself. So when Bison encountered Akuma he was easily overwhelmed and his soul did not return. Unfortunately he was still inside Rose’s body for months. He made her into the very thing that she had been trying to stop. Rose became the very evil that she despised. Her only way to cope with this was to delude herself. Bison was never possessing Rose she had merely become lost in the corruption he left behind.
*Being Good Sucks: As Soun was berating Genma for his reckless actions Kasumi was all too pleased to let Genma go down in flames, but ultimately came to his aid.
*Berserk Button: Ukyo doesn’t take to kindly to being called a bitch.
**After kidnapping her cursed form and dying her hair pink Azusa has become this to Ukyo.
**For Kasumi it is The Casanova due to Haruka’s Zero-Approval Gambit when they broke up.
**Being The Fighting Narcissist he is Mikado was furious when Kasumi knocked out one of his teeth.
**Never call Herb Princess.
*Best Served Cold: Ukyo gleefully gave Azusa Multicolored Hair as revenge for what she did to her. 
**Medusa's sisters hunted Perseus for years, and when they finally got the chance, they decapitated him in the night, nailed his head to a shield which they left displayed in the town center with the words 'vengeance for our sister'. Or at least that is the tale.
***Grenda stated she’s hoping to get strong enough to go after the greek gods.
*The Bet: Minako bet Kanada that if he was able to kiss Ukyo during their match he wouldn't stop him from trying to kiss Shampoo. If he failed he would give up being The Casanova.
*Betrayal Insurance: A rather devastating one all of the monster traffickers have a spell placed on them that causes them to either go through Rapid Aging or suffer Why Am I Ticking? when they are defeated or surrender.
*Better to Die than Be Killed: Attempted but ultimately averted. Seeing how utterly outclassed they were one of the old Section 7 leader attempted to shoot himself in the temple only for the Inquisitor to him so he can be interrogated.
*Beyond the Impossible: Kasumi performing the Hadoken while under the Nekoken.
**This was Kitsui’s reaction when Shampoo broke her Synchronization.
**Averted when Rose couldn’t find Kasumi’s normal personality after her Split Personality Takeover. She mentioned that given there past it was possible that Kasumi didn’t trust her and was somehow eluding her detection.
*Bifauxnen Shampoo initially thought Haruka was male until she heared her speak.
*Big Bad: Rose
*Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti: Kitsune believes that they are Elvis Impersonators
**Bigger Bad: M.Bison
***It turns out that Gill was behind everything.
*Big Damn Heroes: Mousse arrived in time to prevent Mikado from killing an unconscious Kanade. As well as kept him distracted long enough for Kasumi to heal herself.
**Happosai returning to get his discarded darlings saved Sampei from a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
*The Big Damn Kiss: After about a month of dating Haruka took the plunge and kissed Kasumi.
*Big No: Nabiki during her Catapult Nightmare
*Big "What?": This was Ranko’s reaction when she learned the stakes for the Martial Arts Dance Match.
*Birds of a Feather: Kasumi and Hinako between the former’s Gender Bender curse and the laters Dual Age Modes they have some who truly understands them. 
::Hinako: Big brother! I'm so glad to meet someone like me! You have no idea how happy I am to find someone who can understand what it's like to be so different. Why don't we go out for ice-cream to celebrate? 
::Kaneda: I think that sounds like a marvelous idea. My treat?
*Bishonen: Upon first meeting Kanada there was only one work Nabiki could use to describe him gorgeous.
*Bizarrchitecture: The building that the Kitsune’s trapped Kasumi and Ranma in. The pair described it as being in one of those crazy optical illusion paintings, this one complete with stairs, doors, ramps, and numerous other things. beyond standing perpendicular to each other, both were standing inverted over the open room that seemed to mark the center of this place.
*Black Comedy Rape: An In Universe example at Kotori’s old school a group of Delinquents decided to give her a Near-Rape Experience as a joke.
*Blackmail Backfire: Zig-zagged by asking for a bribe, the mailman removed the protection his uniform offered him, at least in Ukyo's mind. Unfortunately there happened to be a policeman across the street.
*Blatant Lies: Ukyo used the excuse of a Gag Haircut for being Never Bareheaded
**Of course Akane knows how to cook.
**Sure Frost has been keeping up with her containment spells
**Makoto’s explanation for why Usagi couldn’t help at the restaurant.
**Herb trying to claim he didn’t remember he had a fiancée.
**Ukyo would hate it if her father, Soun and Genma forced an engagement on her and Ranma.
**Kitsune was back at the dorm not sneaking into Hotel La Bac.
**No Kitsune wasn’t trying to sneak into the Mage Council meeting she was Mirdle... Silverfire.
**Ranma and Herb were having a friendly discussion.
***Downplayed while it was more in line with Percussive Therapy they did talk things out and reach a mutual respect for each other.
*Blind Idiot Translation: The Guide translated Shampoo as demand for compensation for eating the first prize as "Why you let bear eat food. This food for winner of contest. You have fine panda give to them and leave. Make children in village very happy, nice plump panda." When what she actually said was "How dare you let your animal eat my prize. This food was for the champion. How dare you take what you have not earned. You will have to replace what you have stolen. We will take your animal and roast him for my victory dinner."
*Blood Knight: Hinako becomes this after getting the Siamese fighting fish.
*Body Backup Drive: It turns out that Setsuna did die after Dangerous Forbidden Technique and the current one is one of the various clones that were put in stasus.
*Bokukko: Averted while it would be easy for Kasumi to embrace her curse and to turn her back once and for all on her girlhood. There is still in her mind the image of her mother. She might never be the woman her mother was but she is her mother's daughter and she will remain female no matter what.
*Bond Villain Stupidity: This is why Kodachi knew her father didn’t send them on a Wild Goose Chase. He thinks of himself as smart and cunning, and delights in proving it.
*Booby Trap: The Kounji Shrine contain these.
*Both Sides Have a Point: After learning the truth about Ukyo’s curse and how she got it. Ranma learned Kasumi’s side as well. While Ukyo has a right to be angry he believes Kasumi when she told him it was an accident (no one is aware that it was actually Mousse’s fault).
**On one hand Shampoo and Ranma are needlessly making everyone worry for putting so much on the line just because I Just Want to Be Badass. On the other hand feeling like The Load isn’t a pleasant experience so you can’t really blame them for wanting to Take a Level In Badass.
*Bound and Gagged: Lemon after she was kidnapped and held captive.
*Boxing Lessons for Superman: Grenda is a rather unusual in that regard. Gorgon’s are a very isolated community, even among other non-humans. That combined with their natural abilities means few have any inclination to seek out training for magic... or really anything for that matter. What little magic they do employ is Anti-Magic to get around their curse.
*A Boy and His X: Claigin is incredibly attached to his hammer, to the point where he refused to allow Lime to use it thinking he’s break it, then entered into an Heroic BSOD when he did.
*Brainwashed and Crazy: Sailor Moon is forcibly turned into a Doll by Shadaloo.
*Break the Cutie: Azusa after her defeat is terrified at the thought of Kitsui coming after her.
*Breather Episode: Chapter 38
*Brilliant but Lazy: Merlin turns out to be this. He’s competent but prone to doing things half assed.
*Brought Down to Badass: As long your body is naturally strong, Hotel La Bac won’t affect you. However, you won't be able to manipulate your chi.
*Brought Down to Normal: The Senshi had a much harder time making it through the hotel without their powers then the martial artist.
**As a result of the No-Holds-Barred Beatdown she suffered Copycat Ken’s mana system completely collapsed. While this doesn’t kill her like it would do if it happened to Lemon she lost her ability to shapeshift.
*Bruiser with a Soft Center: Who would have thought that Shampoo always wanted to go to Disneyland
*Brutal Honesty: Eris hates lies, which is why she’s such a bad schemer.
::Eris: Yes. Hate them greatly. Self-serving lies, lies of omission, white lies... it doesn't matter. I hate when people aren't honest. I can tell, you're rather shocked. Wondering to yourself, hasn't she deceived me before? I'll save you the trouble, no. I've been honest to a fault with you, with everyone. You are just so conditioned to expect dishonesty that when someone is plain with you, it seems like deception.
**Guan Li advised Saki that it would be best to tell Mayuki the brutal truth about her mother.
*Bullying a Dragon: This example is both literal and Unintentional. Herb already upset at having to work as a waitress reached her Rage Breaking Point due to Haruka being her usual Handsome Lech self. 
**She later went Clingy Jealous Girl upon thinking that Kasumi was flirting with Michiru.
**The group of guys who tried to assault Kasumi when she was 16
**The men who played the joke on Kotori kept coming back after Takeshi sent them to the hospital. They smartened up after that.
*Bumbling Sidekick: During his Faked Kidnapping Sausake managed to capture Ukyo and Ranma instead of Kasumi-kun. He then ended up knocking himself out.
*The Bus Came Back: Rose finally returns in Chapter 57
*But Not Too Foreign: Kitsune is half American.
*But Thou Must!: Michiru stressed that Haruka had to tell Kasumi the truth.
*The Caligula: Garnet is Herb's father and the ruler of the Musk. He is regarded by many to be unstable, possibly insane, but also incredibly powerful and dangerous.
*Calling the Old Man Out: Ranma did this to Genma for giving Ryouko to Azusa a random stranger who just showed up claiming she was hers. 
**Ukyo when she went back home for the map to her family’s shrine.
** Ukyo yelling at her father for making her feel worthless by comparing her to Kasumi all of her life.
*Canis Major: Ukyo’s cursed form in described as looking like a particularly hairy pony rather than a dog.
*Can't Hold His Liquor: Let’s just say that Kasumi has a low tolerance.
*Can't Kill You - Still Need You: Kasumi figured out that the Doctor wouldn’t hurt her because of this.
*Canon Immigrant: Sissithississ was originally from a story submission that another author had requested of his readers of his story. However, said submission request was over a year old so his first appearance got trashed for lack of interest and probably because that story wasn't that hot to start with. He got revived for A Scary Thought for convenience sake.
*Captain Obvious Reveal: Once Shampoo turned out not to be C-chan readers immediately guessed that it must be Mousse.
*Carrying the Antidote: The key the Dark Inspector gave Saki also negates the affect of the Anti-Magic field at Hotel La Bac.
*Casanova Wannabe: Ted comes across as this with him instantly hitting on Rose. 
**Turns out he’s a Cowboy
*Cassandra Truth: Sampei doesn’t believe that Saki was sent to Furinkan just to finish school. 
**Kasumi and Ukyo went to Frost after Ukyo ended up getting locked in her curse. She called Kasumi out on how convenient it was that she told her that Ukyo was cursed when she couldn’t prove it.
**Averted Frost has Supernatural Sensitivity so discovered the truth when she called Kasumi’s bluff.
*Cast From Hit Points: You use up all your mana and your body tries to fill the void by converting your chi. Problem is you don't have much of it to start with and that can get very dangerous. It's doubly dangerous as when you're that low on energy, typically the barriers between the two also decay as you haven't got enough energy to maintain them. 
**Magic isn't free. Sure, Mages can bend external energies into the equation, but when it comes right down to it, you still have to spend some energy yourself.
**Even though they are Made of Magic Kitsunes have terrible mana generation for their early life.
*Cast From Lifespan: Zig-zagged while using spirit power lessens one’s lifespan, the lifespan is extended beyond anything we could easily comprehend.
**This seems to be the dangers of Full-Contact Magic. Mages who try to focus external mana sources directly through their bodies, run the risk of prematurely age, or even killing themselves.
*Casting a Shadow: The Inquisitor is able to manipulate a black goo in anyway she pleases.
*Catapult Nightmare: Nabiki after her Erotic Dream about Kasumi. 
**Averted when she went back to sleep.
**Kasumi after dreaming her mother telling her I Have No Son.
*Casual Danger Dialog: Frost called Kasumi out for being so nonchalant when she and Tofu came to rescue them, pointing out that they’ve been missing without a trace. Kasumi responded that given everything that’s happened they she didn’t really time to register it.
*Challenge Seeker: When informed about Kotori Kitsui saw it as a challenge.
*Character Development: This is best shown in Shapoo’s fight against Kitsui. As the fight involved more of Powers Do the Fighting Shampoo had to break out of her usual style, that being brute force, and use her head to get by. Showing that she is becoming more of a Guile Hero.
**Since his defeat Mikado has had time to... adjust his ways. Of course, it was been a necessity since he had to live up to his end of the agreement made for that match which he lost, but nonetheless it has given him some... wider perspective.
**After a year with Kasumi Shampoo has become less confrontational.
:: So Pu: The point is your initial response is now passive, not aggressive. Oh, she hasn't totally passified you to be sure, but there is a definite change. If I were to guess, you now filter all your consideration through how she will respond, and you're already at the point of simply thinking like that directly.
*Chekhov's Skill: Kasumi’s training from Dhalsim allowed her to realize that she was in a Lotus Eater Machine.
**Taking it further she realized everything was an illusion as she was reliving her experience in the Cave of Ancients. Essentially the illusion she experienced in that cave told her that everything was an illusion.
**Sissithississ position as Lemon’s bodyguard, granted him the skill to deal with the men Lemon enchanted where as Herb was overwhelmed by their Zerg Rush.
*The Chessmaster: Setsuna set up a scenario where Haruka and Michiru would end up meeting Shampoo and taking her in. Which would inevitably lead to the three meeting Kasumi.
*Chivalrous Pervert While Hitchi is very much in love with his wife he seems to enjoy flirting with Kasumi.
**After finding out that Ranko liked Akane and knowing that she was Ambiguously Bi gave her pointers on how to attract her. While still making it clear that she was available if it didn’t work out.
*Chuunibyou: Kasumi thinks Makoto is this due to being able to see through the Senshi disguise magic. 
**Shin Kikai would like god and mortal alike to fear the might of the mysterious snow-globe.
*Clap Your Hands If You Believe: If you see a spirit do something, you can do it too. It is just a matter of your desire to do such and your belief that you can.
*Clingy Jealous Girl: Kasumi-kun attempted to warn Michiru that Haruka was a Handsome Lech. Haruka saw this and thinking Kasumi was hitting on Michiru confronted him. 
**Averted with Michiru who tried to repair Kasumi’s relationship with Haruka.
**When Rippa threatened to Opponent Switch as a plow to get Ranma to move away from the edge Kitsui actually stopped dancing and marched up to him to remind him that Shampoo was hers.
*Cloning Blues: Bison is genetically engineering fighters capable of powering the Psycho Drive, modeling them after himself. 
**Shadow and Shadow Lady
**It took Chun Li about two hours to convince Shadow Lady that she was a clone.
**Averted with Shadow who is fairly accepting of what he is. Unlike Shadow Lady, he was partially conscious thru the whole fight against Rose so he knows everything that was said.
*Clothes Make the Legend: Ranma was shocked to find Herb not in his usual armor when he arrived at the location of their fight.
*Clothing Damage: A large portion of Ukyo’s clothing were blasted away by the Hadoken.
*Cloudcuckooland: This line says it all.
::Chun Li: So, just how bizarre do you want to get?
::Saki: I go to school with a guy that thinks snow globes are the key to the universe. Try me.
*Cloudcuckoolander: Shin Kikai’s snow globe knows all.
*Coitus Ensues: Averted luckily Kasumi was to drunk and passed out before anything could happen.
*Collateral Damage: Ranma ended up getting hit by the cake Ukyo threw when Kasumi dodged. 
::Akane: Ranma, aren't you supposed to be a martial artist.
:: Ranma: Shut up!
**Kodachi and Kimiko ended up running over Ryoga during their fight.
**Frost intended to put a stop to the fights but by the time she finished her spell, both Kasumi's and Ranma's fight had moved off to the side. The only one left in front of her was Shampoo.
*Combat Clairvoyance: The Achilles Heel of Rose’s Teleport Spam is that you have to see where you were going to use it. Kasumi is able read Rose's intents because of this and immediately repositioned herself to be ready for Rose's next attack.
*Combat Pragmatist: In order to defeat Lime and Mint Kasumi resorted to using the Saotome Ryu Urawaza Hiougi
**One principle in the Anything Goes school of martial arts is that you must be willing to make use of any advantage you can find. If a contest has rules, you must be willing to exploit those rules anyway you can.
*Comically Missing the Point: Because of the way he worded it, i.e telling her that he’d marry her to help out with the situation with Shampoo. Kasumi took it as him just being nice and told him she’d get through it herself.
**When Kasumi asked Ranko if she had ever been with a girl it took her a while to realize she met sexually and not on a date.
*Comically Small Bribe: When the mailman asked for a bribe to give her letter back she only had 154 yen.
*Comical Overreacting: Kotori Shoushin is a little touchy, and tends to over-react. She’s introduced unleashing an Unprovoked Pervert Payback on Ryoga for accidentally nudging her.
*Coming Out Story: Kitsui told Shampoo hers.
*Commander Contrarian: The leader of the monster traffickers is a rouge dark kingdom youma who refused to work with Queen Beryl.
*Complexity Addiction: Frost, lacks imagination instead of just conjuring a hammock she tried to conjure a bed.
*Compliment Backfire: Initially, going off wild rumors about Nabiki, Tsubasa styled himself up as a Yakuza enforcer on his first 'date' with Nabiki. She naturally took this poorly.
*Composite Character: This version of Ukyo combines elements of both the original and Ryoga Hibiki. She and Kasumi met as a child and after a series of Cooking Duels Kasumi left before they could finish the last one. 
**Discussed in universe Kasumi shares traits of both Haruka and Michiru.
**Kitsune Maruda has multiple influences which range from the Question from Justice League (animation) to The X-Files (obviously). Mat Bluestone from Gargoyles might be her uncle even if the series as a whole isn’t being used. However it should be noted that she has one other significant influence, that of Haruhi Suzumiya.
*Confirmation Bias: Frost hated Kanade from the moment she found out that Shampoo was married and just looked for evidence that he was a cad. 
**Frost didn’t hesitate to go on her Roaring Rampage of Revenge after Shampoo supposedly told her that Kasumi raped her. Contrast this with Mousse who while shocked quickly realized that something didn’t make sense.
*Conflict Ball: While they still would have to deal with Herbs attraction to her the situation with the Musk would have went a lot smother if Frost had just agreed to give Herb the Kaisuifu, as it seemed he had no problem letting them use it to free Ukyo.
**Once Herb got the Kaisuifu away from Ukyo after she was cured she was going to go cure herself as well only for Frost to attack her.
*Connected All Along: It turns out that Jasmine is the former wife of Dragon Lord Mandrake, now widowed making her Herb’s grandmother.
*Conspiracy Theorist: Kitsune specifically Alien Abduction
** Kitsune takes this Up to Eleven to the point of being a deconstruction. While in Nerima she has found verifiable proof of the existence of magic, ghost, Psychic Powers, ect. So what does she do, look for even more implausible things.
** The sad thing is as lampashaded given the Cloudcuckooland that is Nerima it’s not actually that implausible.
*Contrived Clumsiness: Why Nabiki keeps splashing Kasumi with water.
**Kasumi pretended to trip to lure Kuno into range.
**Ranma dropping his tea on Ryouko.
*Contrived Coincidence: Right after Nabiki let Tsubasa down she finds out that he was the winner of the long shot bet of Kuno finally giving up on Akane. 
**Ukyo was splashed with the Chiisuiton right before Ranma decided to finally confirm his suspicions.
**The hot spring that Akane and Nabiki went to over the break just happened to be the one where Happosai hid the Happo-Fire Burst scroll.
**Copycat Ken showed up shortly after Lemon tricked Frost into thinking that Kasumi raped Shampoo.
*Conviction by Contradiction: This and not the fact that Too Good to Be True is what caused Usagi to start questioning the Lotus Eater Machine she was in. If the game she was playing was an adventure gave why did it involve Let's You and Him Fight. Also why did she have a Super-Powered Evil Side if the other Senshi were Brainwashed and Crazy.
** She fully realized what was going on when her character killed some one as game or no game she would never do that. This force the mental versions of her friends used to manipulate her to hold her down.
*Cooking Duel: When Kasumi and Ukyo were kids there was a contest held by one of the local restaurant owners. Everyone in the area who was a skilled cook and martial artist participated. One particular grouping matched all the children against each other.
**Ukyo had to go through this in order to receive the recipe book that could cure her.
*Cool Horse: The Familiar of one of the mages was this. A large pitch black horse with hoofs clad in flames, and eyes glowed in similar light; while smoke seem to bellow from its nostrils.
**Its actually a cat the horse it just its nightmare form.
*Cool Old Guy: Hitchi Hiro
*Cool Sword: Ixion’s sword is known as the Dominion Blade. It grants him dominion over anything he cuts with it… well, within certain limits.
*Cooperation Gambit: Ranma traded the translated Happo Daikarin scroll to Happosai for information on how to manipulate the Body Energy System.
**Herb fully admits that that he is training Shampoo for her fight against Kitsui to get on her good side.
*Cope by Creating: Kasumi’s mother’s death left her with an emptiness inside she just needed to fill. So when Genma suggested the training trip she eagerly pushed for the chance.
*The Corrupter: Lemon convinced Ukyo to learn her family’s Dangerous Forbidden Technique.
*The Corruption: Psycho Power like the Dark Ha Do, can overwhelm a person's psyche.
*Could Have Avoided This Plot: Kitsune, Saki, Sampai and Gosunkugi didn’t have to sneak into the San Cheng-Huang to see the mages Kasumi would have gladly let them in if they had asked.
*Cover-Blowing Superpower: Averting this is why Herb doesn’t believe that Frost is the current incarnate of Sedna.
**The Inners couldn’t ask anyone for help in getting Usagi back to Japan since it would enable them to figure out that she is Sailor Moon.
*Covert Group with Mundane Front: Tsubasa took Nabiki telling him she wasn’t apart of the Yakuza as this.
*Covert Pervert: Yotogi Shinja has pictures of anybody that's anybody.
**The naked pictures of Kasumi and Shampoo that Happosai used to tease Ranma. He received them from Izou.
*Zigzagged when told that they would be able to see memories while in Kasumi’s dreamscape. Ranma immediately realized the Power Perversion Potential and became worried about seeing intimate moments that they should. Luckily Rose informed him that those memories will remain private.
*Crazy Prepared: A villainous example the Furinkan team’s second in command was Properly Paranoid and checked not only all of their weapons only for Kodachi to put itching powder in the teams leotards. 
**Setsuna set up a reservation for Haruka, Michiru and Hotaru when the restaurant opened two years ago.
*Creepy Good: Given all of the signs of recently repaired damage Saki Asamiya was amazed Furinkan High School qualified as one of the best in terms of obedience.
*Critical Research Failure: Given the high prices of funeral plots, Kasumi’s mother would most likely have been cremated as 99.81% of deceased Japanese are.
**Despite all the above being true, The gravemaker of the Tendo mother does actually appear on screen in episode 160 of the anime, Boy Meets Mom - Part 1, and the scene in question was actually inspired by the scene from the anime.
*Crocodile Tears: Tsubasa when Nabiki finally let him down.
*Crotch-Glance Sex Check: Yotogi did this to Haruka she wasn’t happy with the results.
*Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Kasumi came across as this to the Amazon due to not yet being used to his new body.
** As in canon no matter how silly they are Lime and Mint are Herb's elite personal guards for a reason.
**Whatever identity issue Claigin Jingeyder has, he is one of the strongest people in the class.
*Cruel Mercy: Initially thinking that Kasumi was a Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond who had bitten off more then he could chew. Shampoo was planning on killing the handsome outsider so he wouldn’t suffer the consequences of his rash actions.
*The Cuckoolander Was Right: Kitsune informed Makoto about the latest issue of the Lone Gunman that theorized that the Sailor Senshi are really from the Moon kingdom, during this period called the Silver Millennium. It says Sailor Moon is really the princess of this kingdom, and the others are part of her council. The kingdom was supposedly destroyed several hundred years ago, but the Senshi survived by being reincarnated in the modern world. It also holds that they are destined to lead us to this utopia call Crystal Tokyo sometime in the future. 
**Averted since Kitsune believes the theory that they are The Men in Black more.
**She deduced that Kasumi would be at Hotel La Bac
**Shin Kikai was able to figure out how to destroy the Anti-Magic stones when neither Frost nor Lime could.
:: Shin: Hah, now you see.
::Frost: That guy gives me the creeps.
***Averted as it seems It Only Works Once
*Curb Stomp Battle: Kuno is simply no match for Herb.
**Kotori to Mousse after his Blind Mistake
**Being on the receiving end of this is what ultimate lead Ukyo to learning her families Dangerous Forbidden Technique.
**One Happo-Tsurisen-Gaeshi sent Takeshi down.
**Kuno is simply no match for Mikado.
**The Inquisitor and Assassin utterly decimated the former section 7 leader and his bodyguards.
*Curb Stomp Cushion: While Haruka had a better showing in her rematch she still proved to be no mach for Kasumi.
*Cut-and-Paste Translation: The guide made Shampoo come across as far more savage and unreasonable then she actually was. For example the first prize was Serious Business because the feast was made up of food given by each clan which the winner was then going give back to. So Kasumi offering to pay for the damages instead of offering his panda to replace the food it destroyed came across as Screw the Rules, I Have Money. However the guide only told Kasumi that she said no. 
** Kasumi herself lampshaded that it was a long no.
*Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Ken/Keiko’s mother Chika died rescuing a fellow kitsune from the Hunters.
**The reason Yui the kitsune didn’t raise her or at least find her was that all Chika managed to get out before she died was her name and since they weren’t in Tokyo Yui ended up looking in wrong place for months.
*Damned by Faint Praise: According to Shampoo her mother Comb can’t cook even if her life depended on it, although she’s still better than Akane.
*Dance Battler: We study the art of dance as our focus though, and use it in our martial arts. I'm sure you've aware of the long standing links between the two arts. We seek to unite the two disciplines.
*Dangerous Forbidden Technique: The Hadoken
**The reason the Kounji turned away from there heritage to pursue more... benign lines of work was because they developed techniques so potent and dangerous that they were sealed away.
*Darkest Hour: Artemis considered being captured by the pound to be this for him.
*Date Peepers: Shampoo, Frost and Ukyo during Kasumi and Ranma’s first date. Frost also watched Tofu and Akane’s date.
*Deadly Dodging: During their first battle Kasumi tricked Herb into destroying the support pillars of the building they were in. Unfortunately he figured it out.
*Deadly Gas: The Doctor used a specially brewed neurotoxin on Shampoo. It’s considered a failure as it requires a rather large dosage and is rather slow.
*Deadly Upgrade: While the Burning Soul can make you ten times the man you are, it rips you apart and burns you alive.
*Deal with the Devil: This was the Dark Inspector’s explanation for why he works for Shadowloo. The Sukeban Deka project deals with devils. Not of the super natural variety, but they are every bit as dangerous and every bit as difficult to defeat. When you face devils, sometimes you have no choice but to ally yourself with another devil to stand even a chance of victory.
*Deity of Human Origin: Some creatures are so impressive in their natural power they get a following, and the divine spirit joins with them later giving them the true divine authority.
*Determinator: Ranko quickly discovered the weakness of Kankaho unfortunately to get the timing right required her subjecting herself to it again.
*Death-Activated Superpower: After she destroyed the silver crystal Usagi’s body unleashed a wave of energy that weakened Bison’s hold on Kasumi’s mind. 
**Shampoo’s spirit and body have become dislocated as a result of her near death experience resulting in her being able to see ghost.
** Spirit Sense is not truly a technique, but a consequence of Shampoo's spiritual awakening. This grants Shampoo Super Senses, makes her Immune to Mind Control sop long as she is aware of it, Resistant to Magic, the ability to see through a Shapeshifter Guilt Trip, Mind over Matter, and Astral Projection.
*Death Glare: C-chan gave Artemis one when Akane was informed about how he failed to escape.
*Death of a Thousand Cuts: Mikado and Azusa perfectly preserve the momentum they built up with each pass, and use that to strike the opponent in perfect timing and positioning with the other. Before long, the Golden Pair are nothing but blurs as the passed by, slowly and efficiently punishing opponent.
*Deconstructed Trope: One is given for Please Dump Me. Haruka is treated as a Dirty Coward and needlessly cruel for finding some willing girl and deliberately kissing her so Kasumi could see instead of just telling her the truth.
**Blind Mistake: It’s pointed out that Handicapped Badass exist and even regular blind people don’t mistake inanimate objects for people. There is nothing sympathetic about the fact that Mousse keeps doing it, and the fact it’s so flagrantly insulting makes one wonder if he’s doing it intentionally.
*Defeat by Modesty: Kodachi did this to Kimiko through an Inconvenient Itch and a Shameful Strip.
**Peach tired of dealing with everyone suspended them in the air and ripped their clothes off.
*Defiant to the End: Despite her impending fate, Frost looked up at Herb defiantly when she caught up to her.
*Déjà Vu: C-chan has this while trying to rescue Artemis from a pitch black pound and thinking she’d need glasses afterwards
*Deliberately Bad Example: Mousse is the reason that Frost is a Straw Feminist.
*Deliberate Under-Performance: The reason Siren is still a 10th circle when she’s more than capable of reaching the Grand Magus rank, is because she hates being on... councils.
*Demonic Possession: Luna suggested this as an explanation for Kasumi’s Out-of-Character Moment
*Department of Child Disservices: Grenda found it very odd to find a stray like Ken, and suspected she fell through the cracks somehow.
*Designated Victim: As lampshaded in universe after their Relationship Upgrade Shampoo was repeatedly used as a way to Kasumi. While she could be considered a Deliberately Distressed Damsel with the principle since she had found the whole thing more annoying than dangerous and in the end viewed the whole incident as almost amusing seeing as how she got some attention from Kasumi for the trouble. However it was quite different when Copycat Ken used used her as a way to get at Kasumi. Much more was at stake that time, and because she couldn't defend herself Kasumi had been possessed by that Dark Ha Do and then kidnapped. Finally Kasumi was once again forced to rescue her from Rose, putting herself at risk. Even after Shampoo sought to avert this she was still a target as Lemon put a love spell on her so that she would chose someone else besides Herb.
*Despair Event Horizon: Shampoo had reached this at the start of the story. After finding out the truth about Kasumi she angrily told her to leave. Naturally when Cologne found out she sent her to Japan to bring her back. However due to Incompatible Orientation she wasn’t willing to confront Kasumi so found a job as a hostess for room and board only to get fired due to an encounter with a handsy customer. Luckily the Outer Senshi found her and took her in.
**Kasumi entered into a Heroic BSoD after being informed that Cologne had left the Phoenix Pill in China. With every passing day she lost more and more of her sense of self.
**Usagi after her Mind Rape
**Lemon after she was kidnapped and left Bound and Gagged, with no idea where she was or who had taken her.
*Determinator: Kasumi despite being petrified fought the giant representation of her nekoken to protect Shampoo.
*Deus ex Machina: Akuma was described as this as he suddenly showed up out of nowhere and killed Bison. However this is more of a case of Fridge Brilliance as Bison had set up a martial arts tournament to lure in the worlds best fighters explaining why he was there.
*Did You Just Have Sex?: Kitsui noticed that Shampoo was getting some by how much her rhythm had changed.
*Didn't See That Coming: The Amazon’s never though of Jusenkyo when they made their draconian laws on same-sex marriages. Which is why Cologne locked Kasumi in her cursed form so that she would take over Shampoo’s status when it is revealed.
**At Nyuchiehzu a challenge was a matter of pride. Cause was irrelevant, when made it was always accepted least the refusal be viewed as cowardice. So Shampoo never expected Rippa to refuse.
*Didn't Think This Through: To order to overcome Azusa’s maneuverability Ukyo decided to destroy the ring. She didn’t realize until it was pointed out that it was on top of a pool. 
**In order to slow the Musk down Frost conjured up an impenetrable forest of thorns around the Kaisuifu for about a hundred meter radius. She didn’t think that someone might be living there until Kasumi pointed it out.
**Frost forgot about C-chan being Akane’s pet when she turned Mousse into a Familiar.
**Ukyo forgot that Kasumi is the dominant wife in her and Kasumi’s marriage. So by defeating her Ukyo gained that title as Kasumi didn’t want to kill her.
::Kasumi: I just wanted to say first that you fought very well. I also wanted to say this isn't my idea.
::Kasumi after kissing Ukyo: Wo Ai Ni. 
**Lemon thought that if Ukyo defeated Kasumi Herb would loose interest in her. Unfortunately not only did that happen but Herb found the thought of challenging Ukyo more appealing then Kasumi.
**Kuno didn’t consider that Cologne and Shampoo would also be joining them when he offered Kasumi a place to stay.
** Herb making a Heroic Sacrifice to the Fox Clan to get Kasumi out of being their Puppet King. However by this point the alliance between them and the Amazons is far more profitable then anything Herb could hope to offer.
***Even outside of that Eyebright pointed out that Kasumi would never allow him to do such a thing on her behalf.
*Die or Fly: Ranko first tested her Anti-Magic by protecting Kasumi from Frost.
*Dimensional Traveler: Bison is able to transport to the sub-dimensional plain, a path by which the world's energy passes. While there he is closer to that energy than anywhere else.
*Dirty Cop: The Dark Inspector works for Shadowloo.
*Dirty Coward: Eris called Seiya for always going after Forbidden Fruit so that she’d have an excuse for when she doesn’t take the leap and admit her feelings.
*Dishing Out Dirt: Particulate Matter Control is one of the techniques Cologne taught to Kasumi. It allows the user to shape of control fine particles, such as sand, or dust.
**Making a Splash: The technique also works on liquids such as water.
**The technique is easy enough, mold your chi to flow through the object you wish to control then shape it with your mind. However, that simple explanation hardly speaks to the true complexity of the form. This sand and silt is composed of millions of tiny particles, and getting them all to cooperate is tougher than it seems. Once you master the control of it, however, you can easily extend it to other materials: snow, water, dust, dirt, whatever is at hand. Particularly advanced users of this technique can even reshape more solid objects like stone and ice but we'll start with the basics.
*Disproportionate Retribution: In universe unaware of Lemon’s deception Kasumi thought Frost was trying to kill her for losing to Ukyo. 
**Stheno and Euryale received a similar curse as their sister Medusa because they begged Athena to change her back.
**This is the Monster Hunting Organization’s usual MO. Normally their individual operations are quite small, perhaps a half dozen people with at most two hunters. Naturally, they deal with buyers and sellers both who are quite powerful individually in their own regard, so it would not be uncommon for such people to attempt to overpower an individual operation for their own ends. The organization's method to combat this is to reprise with a vicious counter assault. Those who cross them soon regret it.
*Distaff Counterpart: Ukyo is essentially this universe version of Ryoga.
*Distracted by the Sexy: Happosai keeps bombarding Ranma with naked pictures of Kasumi and Shampoo making so uncomfortable he can barely look at her.
**Kasumi and Shampoo were in the furo when they heard Herb’s First Period Panic scream.
*Ditto Fighter: Copycat Ken
*Divorce Requires Death: The Amazons apply this trope to divorce.
*Dogged Nice Guy: Kodachi seems too loath the very ground Ranma walks on.
**Tsubasa bless his heart really tries.
*Don't Explain the Joke: Sailor Mercury theorized that the reason Sailor Moon’s armor looks like Sailor Fuku is because someone could have seen the future and designed the uniform deliberately to emulate current attire. In other words, it could well be somebody's idea of a joke that we wouldn't get until now.
*Don't Make Me Destroy You: Kasumi to Herb after showing him the power of the Hadoken.
::Kasumi: I have no desire to use that against you, but I will not allow you to hurt Frost. I realize you're hurt, but there are options.
*Doorstopper: A Scary Thought is 645,658 words described as a length of eight books
*Double Standard: Mousse calls Frost out on the fact that she considers him the devil incarnate for trying to use the love pill on Shampoo and Kasumi, while conveniently forgetting that Shampoo was about to try the same thing.
**Not Helping Your Case: Frost response after a beat was that it was different due to Marital Rape License. Though after a beat she admitted that was bull.
*Double Standard Rape (Female on Male): Upon learning about the Kiss of Marriage Akira initially thought Kasumi/Kanada had forced Shampoo to marry him and was glad he was unaware of the law.
*Double Standard Rape (Sci Fi): Averted Ukyo was furious upon learning what Lemon almost did to her.
*Dragged into Drag: After Happosai stole their underwear the girls got the boys to switch cloths with them so they didn’t have to walk around in skirts.
*Dragons Are Divine: Celestial Dragons
*Dramatic Irony: Cologne believes that even if Kasumi could somehow both manage to get pregnant and avoid cold water for that long it would be Longest Pregnancy Ever thanks to the chaos her hormones are in thanks to the transformation. It would take several months at least to stabilize enough to even conceive. However other series in the Altered Destinies Verse reveal that the magic of Jusenkyo causes Express Delivery.
*Dramatically Missing the Point: Usagi never thought much about the fact that Seiya might not be interested in playing a male role with her.
*Drama Queen: Tofu’s mother was Driven to Suicide when he told her he wasn’t ready to be married.
**Ukyo was so focused on her training that she never realized that everyone had been shipwrecked until Ranma told her when he picked her up from the temple.
*Dream Walker: Rose is able to this and through a Shared Dream was able to send everyone into Kasumi’s dream in order to find her original personality.
*Dream Weaver: Rose’s abilities veer into this a little at least enough to suppress the aspect of Kasumi’s mind that deals with fantasy making traveling through her dreamscape easier.
*Driven by Envy: Ukyo’s resentment of Kasumi is due to being Always Second Best when compared to her. 
::Ukyo: I tried to be civil, I tried to be nice and what did it get me? Nothing. You got all the praise! You got all the attention! Even my own father couldn't stop talking about you! It was like living in the shadow of some perfect goddess! No matters what I did I was always second best to you! It was driving me insane!
*Driven to Suicide: It is believed that this is what happened to Cosmos, her guilt over killing the serial killer in a fit of rage was too much for her. 
**Upon Sailor Moon’s rebirth they could only conclude that Cosmos felt her own power was too dangerous, so she sealed it, but the process cost her, her life
*Driven to Villainy: After admitting her Double Standard for calling out Mousse for attempting to use the Love Pill, but not Mousse Frost claimed this. If it wasn’t for Mousse’s Crazy Jealous Guy antics Shampoo would never have been so desperate.
*Drop-In Character: As Herb’s Spirit Advisor Sorora acts as this.
*Drop the Hammer: Claigin Jingeyder, one of the more insane members of the class, wields a large, intimidating sledge hammer.
*Dude, Not Funny: The Near-Rape Experience the guys at Kotori’s old school gave her.
*Dude, Where's My Respect?: As the Amazons follow The Spartan Way. It is warriors like Shampoo who gain all the true respect, admiration, and fame. Magic users are the ones overlooked and forgotten. At least that is how Frost saw it.
**Averted Frost does not resent this system. In fact she admires the village warriors for their prowess, more in fact than any achievement she had ever made.
*Dull Surprise: The Old Washer Woman replied to Frost conjuring up a new bucket with complete indifference just thanking her for the replacement.
*Dustbin Class: Shortly after coming to work as a supervisor at Furinkan High, Kasumi was assigned a special class assembled from nearby schools of various trouble makers from those schools. The class itself is composed of students from not only several schools, but also varying grade level. Joining the class is technically voluntary for students from other schools, but typically the alternative is not desirable.
*Dye Hard: This version of Ukyo’s hair has been dyed permanently pink.
*Dying as Yourself: Bison lost control over Usagi after she destroyed the Silver Crystal.
*Early-Bird Cameo: Kasumi happened across Ryoga and Shirokuro but sisn’t recognize him at the time.
**Hinako is hired to aid Kasumi in teaching the Delinquents class, long before there is any mention of Happosai.
*The Eeyore: The Silver haired Haku. Just looking at her seemed to depress Kasumi a bit and make her wish to run over and hug her just to cheer her up.
*Embarrassing Cover-Up: Cologne told everyone she was meditating to cover up her Guilty Pleasures of watching Pretty Sammy.
*Embarrassing Nickname: Sissithississ doesn’t like being called Sissy
*Emotion Eater: The Cooking Priest has developed an ability to taste the very aura of a person through the food they make. This made him aware of Ukyo’s Inferiority Superiority Complex.
*Energy Absorption: In addition to Hinako this is a natural ability of Martial Artist. Most of martial artists act mostly as a sponge and passively soak up chi around them.
**While it is nowhere near as powerful as Hinako’s Ranma has learned how to do this.
*Energy Ball: The Dragon Fang Fist is actually a training technique. It’s mastered version the Dragon Fang Strike is this trope and it can be controlled to some degree in flight.
*Entertainingly Wrong: Ranma suggested that Nabiki join them in morning training not yet realizing her attraction to Kasumi and thinking she was just upset about having to help with the cooking.
**Everything Saki theorized about Furinkan High such as Ranma being Nabiki’s enforcer.
*Entitled Bastard: Upon learning about Kasumi’s engagement to Ranma Herb’s only thought was he wouldn’t allow some commoner to take what was rightfully his.
*Epic Fail: When Frost repaired the door instead of instead of the glass and wood one that had been there, she created a large and heavy brass gate that is more fitting to a medieval castle.
*Equivalent Exchange: This is how Herb discovered the Energy Tap technique. Since energy cannot be created or destroyed it didn’t make sense why Herb’s female body had such low levels of chi compared to his male one.
*Escalating Brawl: This happened to the swim team due to Kimiko’s Defeat by Modesty and the resulting Slut Shaming. Then Rhythmic Gymnastic team added to the mayhem that was already going on once they learned what happened.
*Eureka Moment: How Kasumi discovered the Light Ha Do. There is a reason it is called the Dark Ha Do. If it was merely the natural progression of the Ha Do, then there would be no reason to name it after Darkness.
::Kasumi: I've been thinking a lot about it, and I come to realize that darkness has a natural antithesis. Darkness is just easier to embrace, but for there to be darkness, there must be light as well.
**Ranma finally put two and two together that Happosai was the man who cured Hinako when she was a child when he realized that all of her techniques begin with Happo.
** Shampoo realized that Kitsui was a Master of Illusion from the jumbled memories she received from Azusa.
**She had another one when after learning about her Spirit Sense Ranma commented that people are just sorta ghosts with bodies. This caused her to remember Kogane telling her that ghost don’t dream
::Ranma: Something wrong?
::Shampoo: No, maybe something right.
**Herb realized that it was Lemon who enchanted Shampoo from the description what the Kitsune who did it would look like from Jasmine.
*Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The Doctor
*Everyone Can See It: Ranma seems to be aware of Nabiki’s attraction to Kasumi if his comment after she swallowed a love pearl is anything to go by. 
**Kasumi realized that Ranko was interested in Akane from how she would look at her in class.
*Everyone Has Standards: Ukyo stopping her Kick the Dog moment shown below upon seeing that Kasumi was about to reach her Rage Breaking Point, she even apologized to her. Though it was mainly because she didn’t want to stoop to Kasumi’s level.
**Nabiki’s underlings Yoko and Kinichi called her out for the cold way she shot down Tsubasa.
**While Kasumi initially tried to calm everyone down after rescuing Shampoo. Once she realized that wasn’t happening she didn’t bother to try and protect the Principle from the student’s wrath. She even point blank asked him why she should.
***Averted she just ended up using it as leverage to get him to retract his new rules before stopping them.
***However she did warn him that she wouldn’t be able to hold them back next time.
**Lemon couldn’t go through with her Double Standard: Rape, Sci-Fi
**Complete Monster he may be, but seeing him cut down so casually by their princess was not an image the Senshi could easily accept.
**To Uranus, knocking Shadow Moon cold was one thing, but attacking at full force was something completely different.
**Yotogi advances are enough to make even Lime nervous.
**The Amazons don’t condone Domestic Abuse
*Everything's Better with Spinning: Rippa’s Megaton Kick is a momentum based attack. He uses circle walking to gather up air then by adding its mass to his own, he can hit with much getter momentum than his leg alone.
*Evil Albino: Down played Frost isn’t really evil just a Well-Intentioned Extremist with a Hair-Trigger Temper.
*Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: While more stupidly impulsive then outright evil, Lemon just can’t understand why Kasumi would risk her life to rescue her.
*Evil Is Petty: After Frost destroyed the Kaisuifu she refused to fix it, only ended up agreeing if she could keep both the restored Kaisuifu and the Chiisuiton for her own.
**Both Shadow and Shadow Lady have implanted memories. They both think of themselves as who they modeled after, they are just simply controlled. Bison did this for no other reason then to give him a small measure of revenge.
**Downplayed given that she had already undergone her Heel–Face Turn Morgan Le Faye got one last dig at Guinevere by revealing her affair to Arthur.
*Evil Overlooker: The group trying Kasumi to invoke the Dark Hado.
*Exact Eavesdropping: Ranma listened in on Shampoo’s I Just Want to Be Badass speech to Kasumi.
*Exact Words: This was Kasumi’s justification to get her father off Genma’s back. He didn’t know about the curses of course he knew damned well that the springs were dangerous and that they were called 'the cursed springs of Jusenkyo. 
**While Jusenkyo curses can’t be manipulated they can be augmented. This is why a victim can’t be cured but can have their cursed locked.
**When Happosai asked Ranma if the lady he was introducing him to was young. Ranma replied that she was definitely young at heart.
**Since he refused to train her, Happosai isn’t Kasumi’s master.
**The condition for Frost fixing Mousse’s eyesight can’t involve Shampoo or Kasumi, and won't harm him. She even called him stupid for agreeing to it.
**This is the reason why the gods of modern religion aren’t as powerful. While Gods Need Prayer Badly, all those huge religions, are very fragmented and deities need cohesive belief. When people can't agree on the particulars and take their belief in different directions you lose that cohesion.
*Expecting Someone Taller: Kasumi when she first met Hinako.
*Expository Hairstyle Change: After first meeting Kasumi Ranko changed her hair to a more feminine style in order to look less like Distaff Counterpart of this universes Ranma.
*Expy: Ranma has a lot in common with Tenjho Tenge|Masataka Takayanagi. Both are shy and reserved with untapped potential (though Ranma isn’t a pervert). Furthermore according to Word of God Ranma’s final fighting style will be based at least conceptually like the Hyuga clan style. Masataka is a practitioner of Xinyi Liuhe and Baguazhang which Gentle Fist is based off of.
*Face Fault: Averted the group opted for Stunned Silence when Kitsune told them the reason she had come to Frost’s graduation ceremony.
* Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: Kitsui quickly lost interest in Azusa because of this.
*Face Your Fears: Happosai did this to Ranma by constantly bombarding him with naked pictures of Kasumi and Shampoo.
*Failed a Spot Check: Ukyo uses coloring to hide her pink eyebrowns however due to her training with Cologne she forgot to do it when training with Ranma.
*Failure Is the Only Option: It turns out that the scroll Happosai gave Ranma was a magic scroll so Ranma wouldn’t have been able to figure it out without someone who could see past the concealment spell.
**Until Ukyo averts her Inferiority Superiority Complex she will never get her family’s recipe book.
**The Sailor Senshi defeating the Ascended Senshi is this. While it is possible in a single instance. Perhaps they could get some amazing set of circumstances that would allow them to win, but the Sailor’s completely lack the means by which to make that victory last. As soon as they recovered, the Ascended would simply come and hunt them down, and the Sailors have no means of hiding from them. They even know their identities, so their families would be at risk.
**The fact that Mousse is C-chan will eventually be discovered as well as the fact it was him who caused Kasumi to knock Ukyo into the pool. Ukyo would never accept a marriage to him.
**Eyebright gave Herb two choices surrender to the fox clan or die. After everything done he would not allow Herb back to the Muck to take revenge on his family
*"Failure to Save" Murder: Averting this is the conclusion Kasumi came to after being broken out of her Stepford Smiler. This is why she asked Nodoka to let Genma take her on the training trip. She wanted to be stronger so that she could stop bad things from happening.
::Nodoka: Kasumi, no matter how strong you become bad things will always happen. 
::Kasumi: I know, I can't stop all of them, but the stronger I am, the more things I can change. I want to be as strong as I can be. If I could change even one more thing than I could before, it would be worth it.
* False Friend: In an effort to win over Shampoo Mousse manipulated Frost into fixing his eyesight by pretending to be her friend.
**Mousse is trying to seduce Kasumi since she’s married to Shampoo if he wins her heart then he would get Shampoo as well.
*False Rape Accusation: Lemon appeared to Frost as Shampoo and told her that Kasumi had raped her.
*Familiar: Frost forced Mousse to become this as payment for fixing his eyesight.
*Fantastic Fighting Style: Martial Arts Dance
*Fantastic Racism: Frost and Herb really let their prejudices show from her calling him a barbarian pig to him referring to her as an inbred degenerate scum
*Fantasy Contraception: The Amazon’s have a version of the pill although Cologne claims that their version is much safer and more effective than anything these so call 'scientists' could come up with.
**This annoyed Shampoo since Cologne never told her it was still in effect causing her and Kasumi to panic upon realizing that her Healing Factor meant she couldn’t use regular birth control.
**The contraception is difficult and expensive to make which is why Siren makes them to last so long and even then they aren’t permanent.
*Fate Worse Than Death: After the Nanomachines gained full control of her body the Lotus Eater Machine changed from her hanging out with friends and playing video games to her falling in a bottomless pit.
**Discussed in universe by Grenda who after witnessing the Inquisitor’s attack stated that the old Section 7 leader would be lucky if that is what happened to him. 
***After seeing what the leader did to him the other section head felt that he got off lucky.
* Faux Flame: Shampoo’s aura is described as her being covered in flames when she uses the Dragon Fang Fist.
*Feeling Oppressed by Their Existence: Once Natsu deemed Saki a negative, anything positive from her was an affront to her very being. She needed Saki to be the failure she had deemed her to be.
*Fighting Fingerprint: This is what caused Haruka to notice the similarities between Kasumi-kun and Kasumi.
* First Period Panic: After 3 months trapped Herb had her first period and thought she was dying.
*Five Stages of Grief: Mousse after being turned into a Familiar.
** Shampoo went through this after Kasumi was kidnapped by Shadowloo. One the first day, she was openly confident that Kasumi would escape and return on her own. When the day passed with no signs of Kasumi, Shampoo's confidence in that quickly left her and instead had been replaced with some bluster about getting vengeance on the mysterious duo. On the third day, Shampoo started asking if she was in the way, noting how Ken had used her to get to Kasumi.
* Flash Step: Flicker Step
*Foil: Natsu is this to Lao. Both were relatives of elders, incredibly proud and headstrong woman, who wanted to see more of the world, got into a relationship with an outsider and inevitably killed them. The difference is that Lao is a Smug Snake who believed no one in the village was worthy of her affections and fell in love Julep. She refused to listen to Cologne’s warning that Bitch in Sheep's Clothing and ultimately killed him in self defense. Natsu by contrast ended up getting pregnant during a passing fling and refused utilize Loophole Abuse in marrying him as it would lower her status as a warrior which ended up being All for Nothing. She was the abuser both to Toshiya and Saki (unlike Lao who adored Breeze) and killed him when he finally stood up to her.
**There is also a lot of politics involved in there ultimate punishment. Lao had rejected their help when it might have made a difference, believed sincerely in a man who was the avowed enemy of her people. Now she wanted them liberate her child who sh had left behind when she escaped. This happened in the days following the Tianamen Massacre. With the crackdown then full underway a war between the Amazon’s and the Musk would have brought repression down upon all of their necks. For the good of the Nyanichiczu the council were reluctantly forced to refuse her entreaties. Guan Li pretty much disowned Natsu for killing her husband in cold blood. But in an effort to get Saki to be her heir she offered to have her released to Amazon custody where she'd likely be stripped of all her status and magically bound to the village to labor for the rest of her life.
*For Want of a Nail: What happens when Kasumi is the one coming back from a training trip rather than Ranma.
**This universe is the result of Soun realizing that Genma was attempting Parental Abandonment by pawning Ranma off on him to be raised along with Akane and having him raise Kasumi instead.
** Kasumi immediately asked for hot water upon reaching the dojo.
**Since Genma took Kasumi instead of Ranma Nodoka didn’t make him sign a contract.
**Ukyo dresses more feminine in this timeline.
**Other fics have depicted Tenchi as Ranma’s cousin but her Tenchi Muyo! is a Show Within a Show
**After explaining her origins to Kasumi the two discussed how their universes were different.
**Shadow and Shadow Lady are clones in this universe.
**Since Kasumi isn’t a Jerk with a Heart of Gold unlike with Ranma, Ryoga never built up any resentment to her when she was helping him to and from school.
**Instead of a giant pet crocodile named Mr. Green Turtle, Kodachi has a little green turtle named Mr. Giant Crocodile. She did flirt with the idea of getting a real crocodile, but Akane convinced her that would probably be a bad idea.
**In canon the characters were able to figure out what Kogane wanted fairly quickly, because Kasumi put them on the right track. However, in this world, having grown up elsewhere, she isn't familiar with the tale that is the inspiration of the song.
**Natsu seems to have taken the roll of Silk in this universe. Though unlike the later her relationship with Saki’s father was just a passing fling to her, she does view Saki as A Mistake Is Born, and she wasn’t willing to give up her status as a warrior upon finding out that she was pregnant.
*Foreign Culture Fetish: Michiru’s tailor Pierre is nto the whole French attitude and appeal. Michiru who he refers to as Michelle doesn’t even think he knows French.
*Foreshadowing: After learning that Kuno was planning on taking her dancing Shampoo thought to herself how stupid this was as she had no way of knowing any dances. Amazons are warriors, not dancers.
*Forgotten Friend, New Foe: Played with, Haruka has no idea who Kasumi-kun is being unaware of the curse causing him and Michiru to wonder what he had done to the man to illicit such rage.
*Frame-Up: Ukyo hid a bunch of panties under Kasumi’s bed. Unfortunately Kasumi is such a Bad Liar. That Nodoka believed her when she told her she had no idea how they got there.
*Freudian Excuse: Kotori wasn't always Improperly Paranoid. While she still had a Paralyzing Fear of Sexuality, she wasn’t The Paranoiac. That is until some stupid jerks decided to play a sick joke on her. They even got their girlfriends in on it, which is why even girls make her go nuts. Since then she's been way gone.
*Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: After Shampoo refused to teach Kasumi the Dragon Fang Fist for her upcoming fight against Ukyo Akane had enough and gave Shampoo a "The Reason You Suck" Speech calling her out for being All Take and No Give. Despite being in this situation because of the Amazon laws Kasumi is still willing to protect Shampoo. She however is fully willing to just stand by and let a person she supposedly has some feeling for have their life ruined, and not lift a finger to help them.
*Friendly Enemy: Averted Herb refused to aid Ranma in learning how to manipulate the energy system because despite their cooperation in past incidents they weren’t allies. Ranma is his enemy, an obstacle between him and Kasumi. Only Kasumi's desire to see Ranma unharmed keeps Herb from... dealing with him more directly.
* From Bad to Worse: Ukyo learned that she was going through Power Degeneration that can only be cured by not using her ki for a month, the moment Copycat Ken shows up.
**While in the middle of their No-Holds-Barred Beatdown the Doctor revealed that he was aware of the Senshi’s real identities.
**Shampoo finally realized What the Fu Are You Doing? only to have no way to counter a Master of Illusion.
**After eating Tex the aggressive Neko personality grew so large that Kasumi was able to see it. To make matters worse it was in the way of the restaurant meaning that there was no way she would be going in that direction.
**Grenda was hoping that the rescue of Lemon involve simply storming in and recovering a recent her with minimal other damage so that the Hunters would drop the matter, chalk it up to a bad hunt, and concentrate their energies on moving their operation before a larger attack could come. What actually happen will put them in the crosshairs of an organization known for Disproportionate Retribution. 
***Luckily Grenda and Devlin managed to control the site so that no communications got out. Not to mention the Youma’s overuse of You Have Failed Me. Giving them a chance to control the scenario.
*From Nobody to Nightmare: The Creature Hunter Organisation were initially formed when a number of pre-existing smaller groups found themselves suddenly outlawed by the magic council's new reforms and banded together to defy them. However this was merely a PR stunt. The council had little intent to do anything truly so the group was left to fester and grow. By the time the council took them seriously they had developed a rather good set of methods to avoid the council's attempts to shut them down.
::Herb: So essentially you're telling me the magic council made their own worst enemy through their sheer incompetence? 
*The Gadfly: Izou Horagashi intentionally wants everyone in the class to hate him since it’s much easier to work that way. No idiots bothering you for favors, or trying to talk about the latest boring event in their lives.
**He also takes advantage of Humans Are Good stating that people are fools. They'll still help you out even if they hate you.
*Gag Boobs: Tonic has very large... eyes
*Gallows Humor: When Akane came to get C-chan Akira told her that they had put her down the day before. Mai was quick to chastise him for his cruelty.
*Game-Breaker: Usagi complained about this in her dream world. Stating that what she believed was simply a game character was way overpowered.
*Gay Panic: Mikado refused to go on a Double Date with a gay couple.
*Gender Blender Name: Ken is actually a Kitsune 
Averted her name is actually keiko.
*Gender Restricted Ability: Psycho Power is very hard on a male body, but a female body is far more tolerant to it. 
**Unlike males, females have two energy sources. The 2nd is reserved normally for child rearing but can be tapped into safely under normal circumstances. Doing so greatly amplifies their available ki allowing far greater use of it in all forms.
*Generation Xerox: Kasumi remembers her mother a the perfect Yamato Nadeshiko, which is the template she measures herself by. The fact that she has diverged so radically from that image due to being raised by Genma is a huge source of Angst for Kasumi.
*The Generic Guy: While Nobu Hayao is your standard non-conformist, however since he is part of Cast of Snowflakes he’s pretty much this ignored by everyone even the author.
*Genius Ditz: Herb solved Fermat's last theorem.
*Genre Savvy: Knowing how rare it is to find a true blood kitsune, let alone one young enough to capture easily. The rouge youma had her men beef up security.
*Get Back in the Closet: This is invoked in universe. The Amazon laws regarding same sex marriage clearly state that the stronger of the pair takes all honors and position of the weaker. Centuries ago when the council was petitioned to allow same sex marriages they were reluctant. Joketsuzoku is a small village and they cannot afford to lose the blood lines that those females who would chose this lifestyle represent. The Elders agreed to the petition, but they created conditions and rules that would preserve the village. They also decreed that the junior partner would have the status of a married male. They did this in order to make the option unappealing to all but the most determined lovers. They may allow same sex marriages, but no Amazon enters into one casually.
** When informed that Shampoo and Kasumi were sleeping together Soun would have attempted to force Kasumi to do this if he wasn’t stopped by Genma.
*Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul: This was Cosmos’ response once her people grew tired of her Pacifism Backfire. So to prevent all out war she took all thoughts of hostility from both parties.
*The Gift: While natural magic users are Made of Magic a natural weaver is a naturally gifted individual. For instance, with training anyone can play the piano, but some people have a natural gift for such and their music can thus have a certain quality to it that a normal individual lacks.
* Girl-On-Girl Is Hot: Happosai used this to explain the benefits of marrying Kasumi.
*Glowing Eyes: Kasumi gains these when she enters her center.
**Actually this is merely a sign that Kasumi has entered the first stage of centering. There are no outward signs when someone reaches their center of focus.
**Dhalsim said it is like projecting a feeling rather than anything visible.
* Glowing Eyes of Doom: Herb-chan when the Knowledge Broker she paid for the whereabouts of the Kaisuifuu started hitting on her.
*Ghost Amnesia: Memory doesn't work the same when you're a ghost. Kogane can’t even remember her full name.
*Ghost Memory Shampoo had Kogane repeatedly possess Azusa then her so that she could gain her memories of her fight against Kitsui.
* God in Human Form: Usagi became this after destroying her Star Seed.
*Gods Need Prayer Badly: Divinities are collective consciousness spirits. Basically, you get enough people to believe in something, and that thing can actually manifest.
*Godzilla Threshold: Usagi destroying the Silver Crystal to stop Shadow Moon from killing her friends.
*Go Through Me: Ranko did this to Frost to protect Kasumi.
* Going to Give It More Energy: Ranma discovered that Mana and Ki don’t mix when he tried to pull out some of the energy of the Kitsune he was fighting. He then proceeded to surge his own ki into her system.
* Gone Horribly Right: Soun and Genma were hoping that raising Akane and Ranma together would become closer. While this was accomplished they see each other like brother and sister and are vehemently apposed to marriage. 
**Kasumi became a Stepford Smiler after her mother’s death, because she took everyone’s advice as a Literal Metaphor.
:: Kasumi: There was nothing I could do for her, you all keep telling me that.
::Genma: In that case you couldn't. That doesn't mean you have to like it.
* Good Counterpart: After hearing that Nabiki and Akane were in Kasumi’s class Saki initially compared them to the Mizuchi sisters. 
**The Light Ha Do.
*Good Is Not Nice: Ukyo gets fairly good grades, does volunteer work and is generally helpful to lower level students.
*Graceful Loser: Rippa accepted that he lost even though the match officially ended in a tie. His goal was to prove that Martial Arts Dance was superior to the Anything Goes system. A tie, if anything, proves anything but.
* Grand Theft Me: Bison is attempting to do this to Kasumi.
** It is revealed that Bison was this to Rose and eventually did it to Kasumi after forcing her to unleash the Dark Hado.
*Green-Eyed Monster: Luna to C-chan and she really isn’t trying that hard to hide it.
**Averted while it took Natsu over a decade to get where Saki is now, and even when she herself trained her she could tell that Saki was a Child Prodigy. It was simply the matter of The Unfavourite being this skilled that turned Natsu’s resentment to outright hatred.
::Saki: Are you saying she's jealous?
::Guan Li: Not exactly. More like her pride was injured that the child she rejected was the child that was showing her up. If Miyuki had shown such promise, I think she would have been very happy, but you...
*Grievous Harm with a Body: After his Berserk Button was pushed Mikado basically used Asuza not as a partner but a weapon.
*Groin Attack: Ukyo did this to Kasumi’s cursed form to prevent him from interfering while she attacked the Golden Pair by herself.
**Shampoo dropped a couple of crabs down Happosai’s pants.
*Guilt by Association Gag: This is the reason that Ami was transferred to Kasumi’s class. It’s mentioned that if either she or her mother had complained she wouldn’t have been sent.
*Hair-Trigger Temper: Even before her curse Ukyo was inattentive, moody, and prone to violent outbursts.
**Blood Knight Hinako
*Hanlon's Razor: Ukyo has a strong inferiority complex, which targets her aggression primarily on Kasumi, the believed source of her woes. She is quick to anger, and often shows an unreasonable mindset believing Kasumi's every action is merely a cloak for something nefarious.
**Not knowing about the neko-ken when Kasumi knocked her into Jusenkyo all Ukyo saw was Kasumi, probably looking crazed and out of her mind, rushing at her and knocking her into the spring then running off.
**Seeing Kasumi sitting in an ice cream shop, regarding a drink in front of her as if it was the most perplexing thing in the universe. Michiru though she was contemplating the metaphor of her and Shampoo’s relationship. When in actuality Kasumi had never had soda pop before and was psyching herself up to drink it.
**Kasumi used this to explain how she was able to resist Shadowloo’s torture. Genma is a very frustrating man and after living with him most her life, the Doctor’s antics were more annoying than truly frustrating to her. At least he had a goal and approaches that goal the best he is able.
**Herb thought that Lemon was intentionally antagonizing him, but as Sissithississ explained she was just panicking.
*Harmful Healing: Healing Sickness most often occurs when someone received very large amounts of ki based healing energies.
**Simply put, if a large amount of foreign ki is flooded into a person's body, that person's energy field is contaminated. The result is the person starts to produce less of their own ki in response, and when the foreign energy runs out, it is not replaced. It leaves the individual weakened for prolonged periods of time. However, the body will readapt over time, usually a few days to a few weeks depending of the severity.
**Dream walking is this. While the walker is perfectly safe there are a number of possible psychological effects that can happen to the victim.
**Shampoo gained a Healing Factor after awakening her moon kingdom genes. However while she Never Gets Drunk since foreign substances are purged from her body, so are beneficial drugs including birth control pills.
**Shampoo can't just produce biomass from nothing, healing still requires energy, so it is Cast From Hit Points.
*Harmful to Minors: Natsu murdered Toshiya while he was reading to Saki.
::Guan Li: This... more than anything, is why I disowned her. There was no uncontrolled moment of passion. There was no attempt to shield you from it. There was no attempt to remove you from it. No, she timed that attack to coincide exactly with your presence and left you there.
* Hate at First Sight: Kuno to Kanada
*He's Just Hiding: Chaos took the death of her mother particularly hard and became convinced her mother was faking, and what we thought was her body was merely a copy meant to fool us. Honestly, they could hardly prove her wrong, it was well within Cosmos' power to do such, it just didn't make any sense.
*He Who Fights Monsters: Frost has allowed her hatred of men to make her just as cruel as Mousse once was to her.
*Healing Hands: The Healing Touch technique known by Kasumi. She eventually offered to teach it to Shampoo and Ranma.
*Heart Is an Awesome Power: The itching powder Kodachi developed that is activated by water. While she never planed on Kimiko jumping in a pool it would still have a devastating effect on her opponent as they sweat during their match.
**Even regular itching powder would prove to be a useful distraction.
*Heel Face Turn: Frost is introduced trying to kill Kasumi-kun thinking that he had forced Shampoo to marry him then ran off. Once she learned of the curse and that Cologne had trapped Kasumi in if she immediately cured her. 
**Averted Frost was not through with Kasumi, only confused for the time being.
**During Arthur’s time Morgan was very young, foolish and having a bit of a long term temper tantrum. Sadly her whole redemption arc seems to have been lost to history
*Heel Realization: Ranma had this reaction after “accidentally” splashing Ryouko with his tea to see if she was a cursed victim only for nothing to happen. 
**Hidenori finally realized how much he abused his daughter after a What the Hell, Hero? from Nodoka.
**Mousse after asking Kasumi what Shampoo’s interest were. While Kasumi didn’t know the exact details she knew enough to make highly educated guesses. Such as the fact that her favorite food is most likely cream puffs given how much she eats them, or how fond she is of Disney movies due to her father taking her to one. Mousse by contrast never even thought to ask her such a question and realized he knew nothing about Shampoo.
*Heir Club for Men: Averted the Musk have had female Heir’s before.
* Help Mistaken for Attack: What Haruka saw as a gesture of your typical possessive guy. Michiru realized was a movement to protect against danger.
*Heroic BSOD: Kasumi after being informed that the phoenix pill was china.
**Ukyo upon realizing just how outclassed she was against Kasumi.
**Ukyo upon realizing that she Can't Catch Up. After ten years of training, pushing herself to and beyond her body's limits and it was pointless. Kasumi had defeated her with minimal effort in their latest encounter. The best Ukyo had ever managed was to tie.
**Claigin when Lime broke his hammer trying to break the Power Crystal’s
::Claigin: AH! You... it... Ahhhhhhh...
::Akane: Gee, I didn't think it meant that much to him. 
*Heroic Resolve: Kasumi hid just how exhausted she was after using the Hadoken so that Herb wouldn’t consider attacking Frost again 
**Ranko defeated Toma with broken ribs.
*Heroic Sacrifice: The Silver Crystal is more than just Usagi’s power; it is her star seed as well. So destroying it was this.
** The docile Nero personality died protecting Ranma from the aggressive one.
*Heroic Willpower: After barely surviving the hadoken Ukyo forced herself to perform the Burning Soul after seeing Kasumi-neko about to attack Ranma.
*Hero of Another Story: Dhalsim taught Kasumi various techniques when she was in India.
* Hero with Bad Publicity: The council has come to believe that Kasumi is playing a game to seize power in the village
*Hidden Buxom: Usually, with the cloak, and her diminutive size, Frost appears Younger Than They Look. Without it while she doesn’t have quite the... assets of someone like Shampoo, or Ukyo, there is no mistaking that Frost is a fully adult woman.
* Hidden Depths: Kuno is not one for much reflection. To everyone else, he is 'The Blue Thunder of Furinkan High', or whatever other title he fancies at the time. In private he tends to be far more down to earth.
*Hidden in Plain Sight: This is why the Kounji adopted their Chef of Iron technique. The household cook could hardly be suspected of the death. After all he had only a few kitchen utensils at his disposal, fit only to prepare food, hardly the weapons needed to defeat trained guards armed with sword and spear.
*Hidden Purpose Test: All Ukyo needed to do to get the recipe book was to make the Cooking Priest toast. It took her an hour to make it and she made at least six before she was confident enough to give it to him. The reason he asked Ukyo to make him toast is precisely because it is very simple. Her sudden Complexity Addiction caused her to fail the test.
:: Cooking Priest: As I told you before, the recipes in the book require a certain spirit to use. If you lack that spirit, the recipes would be useless to you. Oh, I am certain that you could match the physical aspects of the recipes precisely, but they would be no more than food then. It is the spirit of the cook that gives them their true power.
*Hoist by His Own Petard: Kasumi ended up using the handcuffs used to keep her from running away to bind her arms to her side.
**After Ranma played the Not What It Looks Like situation with Kasumi off as a dream Ukyo presented him her ripped shirt as proof only for Ranma to think she had ripped it up and chastised her.
**Not impressed by Mikado’s Spin Attack Mousse attacked him with his chains only to be Instantly Proven Wrong when they wove around Mikado, drawing Mousse in.
**Hinako attempted to drain Frost, but since she is a mage the rush of energy ended up draining hers away instead. This left Frost able to continue to go after Kasumi and Hinako too weak to even call out a challenge.
**Being the only one who could actually confirm that Frost had been tricked into attacking Kasumi Mousse believed this.
***Averted Cologne already knew about the curse so just asked Mousse what happened and had no plans to free him.
**When Kasumi was ten she witness Genma cheating at a game of shogi. When she called him out he explained how being a Combat Pragmatist is a basic principle of Anything Goes. Taking his words to heart Kasumi used the same Look Behind You distraction he used in Fixing the Game in order to go give the man Genma cheated his money back.
**Kitsune attempted this to Kotori during Kitsune’s Corner by telling her she full of herself for thinking everyone wanted her.
***This ended up happing to her as her attempted only proved to Kotori that she was checking her out.
**Knowing he wouldn’t be able to play this straight is why Ranma challenged Rippa to an endurance match instead of a style match. His and Shampoo’s goal wasn’t to beat the twins at their game. It was about just beating them.
**Shampoo was able to reverse Kitusi’s control over her using Energy Tap.
**The rogue youma was able to easily overpower Ken by stealing his life force.
**The centuries the youma spent accumulating life force meant that she was just strong enough to allow Ixion to intervene in the battle. As he himself stated if she was just a little weaker he wouldn’t have been able to kill her.
**Ranma taught Rippa the Anything Goes tenet of Trash Talking.
*Holding Back the Phlebotinum: Ixion wasn’t able to aid in the rescue of Lemon, but he was able to provide a distraction if needed.
*Homeless Hero: until she registered at Furinkan Ranko has just been camping out.
*Honey Trap: Realizing that there is no way she could defeat Ukyo physically Lemon resorted to this. 
**Ultimately averted
*Honor Before Reason: The reason Kasumi didn’t tell Nodoka what really happened between her and Ranma was because she vowed not to reveal Ukyo’s curse and not to tell about the dog Ranma found.
** The reason Artemis didn’t contact Minako as soon as possible when he was captured and put in the pound.
**Kitsui exploited this knowing Ranma wouldn’t be comfortable attacking an Unconscious Objector to sick her brother on Shampoo.
**There was no reason they couldn’t just leave Togenkyo other then it being rude to Prince Toma. 
***Averted as Herb did point out that there was no telling what trouble that may be caused down the line if Akane just disappeared on him.
*Hostage for Macguffin: Shampoo was kidnapped by Shadowloo to force Kasumi to unleash the Dark Hado.
*Hostage Situation: Ken did this to Shampoo while under the effects of the Shadaloo Psycho Serum.
*Hot Dad: Hinako went to Kasumi to tell her that she was interested in her father.
* Hot For Teacher: Kuno quickly made his attraction towards Kasumi known, who was just as quick to try and nip it in the bud.
*How Did You Know? I Didn't.: Seiya kissing Usagi
*Humans Are the Real Monsters: At least according to Peach anyway. Kitsunes and humans don't have the best of histories with each other. Lemon's mother is one who tends to blame the whole species for the acts of a few.
::Ranma: Acts?
:: Eyebright: I would think Jasmine would mention such a thing.
::Kasumi: She did. Some humans hunt them to kill, to enslave… or as material… 
*Humiliating Wager: This is how Devlin became a lich
*Humiliation Conga: Ukyo being kidnapped by Azusa and having her fur dyed pink. This cumulated in her having an Heroic BSOD upon turning back and finding out that it effected her hair true form as well.
*Hunter of His Own Kind: A youma is a high ranked member of a Creature-Hunter Organization
*Hunter of Monsters: The Big Bad after Eyebright.
*Hypocrite: As much as Kodachi shows her disgust of Ranma she has no problem leading Tsubasa on with his crush on Nabiki.
**Copycat Ken refused to fight Ranko because he considers her Anti-Magic ability cheating.
::Ranko: Cheat? What do you call changing into people?
::Ken: That's my style. Unfortunately, it is magical, which means you can cancel it out. Doesn't prove you're better. All it shows is you got some goofy power. Big deal.
**Orcus called Sailor Uranus out on her being opposed to Cosmos’ awakening given her status as a Commander Contrarian.
**When Ken called Kasumi out for the No-Holds-Barred Beatdown, Herb was quick to point out that he was holding Shampoo hostage at the time. Ken’s response was that he had been drugged. However so had Kasumi.
**Despite revealing the fact that Morgan Le Faye was entertaining various men getting her banished from the court. Guinevere cheated on Arthur.
*I Am Not Left-Handed: Kuno had much better showing against Kasumi-kun then he did against Kasumi-chan.
**Cologne advised Ukyo not to show off her new skills during the Charlotte Cup so Kasumi wouldn’t have time to adapt.
**Ranma and Shampoo have not really been training up to their potential for years now.
**Shadow Moon initially fought without access to Sailor Moon’s magic. Once the nanites in her gained full control she gained access to it. With access to her magic now, the battle turned very quickly against the Senshi.
**A dark example Psycho Power may be at its most dangerous in the hands of an evil individual, but it's power is fundamental and can be used by any individual.
**The Kitsune’s forced Cologne to get serious.
**Herb was shocked when Sororo told him that most who support Ganet are of the weaker and foolish variety and little threat should they manage to slip through the cracks. As that would mean that his father alone is enough of an opponent to keep Eyebright and his entire clan at bay till now
::Sorora: You have never experienced his might. I say this without hyperbole, there is no singular person on this planet capable of defeating him in one on one combat. In fact, there are few that could fight him even as a group and succeed even in theory. He has grown to the peak of the capacity of the Dragonkin, so much so it surprises even me. He has strength and skill beyond what he should for his age. He no doubt has exploited some connections I'm unaware of.
*I Ate What?: Averted Ranko, and Herb opted to not tell the others what they really ate at Toma’s dinner, just saying that it was perfectly healthy. Ranma commented that this was worse as he would be thinking about it for weeks.
*I Cannot Self-Terminate: So overwhelmed by what she has been forced to do and the Psycho Power that now possesses her Rose wanted Kasumi to kill her as it would give her an escape.
*I Let You Win: It turns out that the man who Genma cheated and then tried to use Combat Pragmatist as a excuse to Kasumi for why it was okay was fully aware of what happened due to Genma being Stupid Evil.
*I Need to Go Iron My Dog: Ranma did this when Akane easily figured out he was trying to play The Matchmaker with Kasumi and Kuno.
*I Reject Your Reality: The fact that Kasumi just wasn’t interested him refused to enter Kuno’s mind.
*I Resemble That Remark: REI IS NOT A GROUCH.
*I Surrender, Suckers: Kasumi did this to the principle.
**Shadow surrendered to Sailor Moon so that Shadow Lady could sneak up on her as she got over her shock at how easy it was.
* I Want Grandkids: Kin Ono stressed to her son that it’s time to get married
*I Will Punish Your Friend for Your Failure: After being purged from Kasumi Bison told her that he might have let her friends live if she hadn’t rejected him.
* I'll Pretend I Didn't Hear That: The animal shelter just pretends that Ryouko is a big dog
*Identical Stranger: Saki and Par Phume look a lot alike. 
**Deconstructed with Eris and Usagi. While there are some subtle differences eyes are a different color, hair different shade, obviously a bit older, the two look so much alike that it is downright creepy. Such a interesting coincidence causes Eris to be suspicious of why she looks so much like Ixion.
*Identity Amnesia: Thanks to being thrown out of a second story window by Akane C-Chan doesn’t remember who she is.
*Idiot Ball: Haruka’s Arbitrary Skepticism about the Love Pearls.
**Saki leaving Kitsune at La Bac after confirming that something wasn’t wrong about the hotel and just expecting her to go back to the dorm. Luckily she was smart enough not to try and sneak in by herself and just surveiled it.
**Saki instantly didn’t believe her when she said she was back at the dorm, and this time threatened to break her legs if she went in.
*If It's You, It's Okay: Discussed in Universe. After meeting Kasumi-kun Michiru jokingly wondered about her choices in life.
*Ignored Epiphany: Mousse believes that Artemis’ infatuation with his cursed form is similar to his infatuation with Shampoo is a vast oversimplification of the two situations.
*The Illegible: Happosai couldn’t read his handwriting on the Happo-Fire Burst scroll. He told Ranma that it was encrypted though he didn’t believe him. 
**The Happo-Fire Burst scroll is totally illegible. It took Ranma over an hour for Ranma to figure out what Happosai wrote down. Even then it turned out to be gibberish causing Ranma to nearly reached his Rage Breaking Point trying to figure it out.
*The Illuminati: Kitsune believes that Shadowloo is currently in a war with them.
**It’s hinted that the Doctor is involved with this group given the Shout-Out to Gargoyles.
*Imagination-Based Superpower: How the Inquisitor’s power works.
*Immune to Mind Control: The minds of members of the Dragon Clan are extremely resistant to all forms of mental influence.
*Impaled Palm: The Knowledge Broker who hit on Herb received a stab to the hand for his troubles.
*Implied Death Threat: Herb after learning of Frost being tricked into attacking Kasumi Herb went to Lemon and Sissithississ’ hotel room to tell them that no harm was to come to Kasumi. 
** Eyebright to Ranma and Kasumi when explaining how much more powerful he was then the other Kitsune.
**Herb gave one of these to Lemon after she was rescued. Pointing out that it cost Kasumi quite dearly to do so and telling her not to make Kasumi do it again.
*Imposed Handicap Training: In order to teach Shampoo Rhythm Reading he took her to a dance club where they would dance while carrying drinks the purpose of the training is to learn how to move without spilling a single drop, and that is just the basics.
*Impossible Insurance: While Kasumi has insurance it is unlikely to cover attack by angry Amazon magus.
*Imposter Forgot One Detail: The Kitsune’s were unaware of Kasumi’s curse allowing Shampoo to figure out that they were trying to lure her and Ukyo into a trap.
**Ranma himself knew about the curse so wouldn’t of asked for help from Ukyo when he fell in the water.
* Improbable Weapon User: This version of Ukyo has a more versatile repertoire which include wok and cake.
*Improperly Paranoid: Kitsune Maruda theories can get a little... wild.
*Improvised Clothes: Ukyo out of bits and pieces of Mints clothing.
* Incompatible Orientation: It turns out C-chan is Mousse
**Akane tried to use this to get out of Toma’s proposal. Unfortunately all it did was cause him to challenge Ranko.
**It has yet to be determined if it’s played straight between her and Rannko.
*Inconvenient Itch: The Furinkan High Rhythmic Gymnastic Team Captain Kimiko had one of these while hanging out with her boyfriend Kei at the pool.
*Incorruptible Pure Pureness: While training with Dhalsim Kasumi went into a cave near his village called the cave of ancients. It is a mystical place, said to reflect the darkness in one's heart. The cave had no effect on Kasumi exactly because of this trope.
**Even while being tortured to death by Frost Kasumi didn’t succumb to the Dark Hado.
**Averted due to the fact that Everyone Has Standards. The Ascended have seen dozens of so called incorruptibles fall before as no one is impervious to the darkness of this world. Even the best can fall to it. Cosmos was among them. Which is why they are so afraid of her awakening. A slight mistake for someone of her power can be more damaging than a whole horde of demons.
*Incredibly Lame Pun: When talking about the war between The Illuminati and Shadowloo Kitsune mentioned that after they were wiped out Shadowloo became a... shadow of its old self.
*Inelegant Blubbering: Lemon when Herb told her he had fallen in love with someone else. **Averted once they saw her face the tears seemed only to enhance her beauty.
*Inferiority Superiority Complex: Ukyo lacks confidence in herself.
*Inn Between the Worlds: Crystal suggested that Kasumi start this after noticing that the barrier was attracting attention. 
**Nabiki suggested the same thing
*Innocently Insensitive: Kasumi honestly never realized how much Ukyo resented her. 
**Seeing that Ukyo was only fighting to get revenge on Azusa. Mikado realizing that she didn’t just declare defeat was because of the dog, asked why she would worry over a common beast. As it wasn’t even a particularly attractive mongrel. Given that Ukyo was that mongrel this just pissed her off more.
**Amazons receive their advanced training from an older Amazon. However after their Relationship Upgrade Kasumi became Shampoo’s mentor. So by encouraging Shampoo to go to school she effective told her that she was not worthy of her training.
**Kasumi when explaining her Gayngst to Michiru unaware that she is a lesbian.
**The thing that got Shampoo to seriously start to improve her Japanese was Kogane asking her if she was related to Azusa due to the similar way they speak.
**When told that the Power-Up Food Ukyo gave them was made by a priest Ranma said that she should get the recipe, unaware that the technique was built on confidence.
* Insane Troll Logic: When Kuno couldn’t find Kasumi only her cursed form his first thought was that Kasumi-kun must have done something to Kasumi. 
**The lengths Ukyo sometimes goes to, to blame Kasumi. For instance it’s her fault that Mousse attacked Ranma because he was interested in her and she agreed to go on a date with Ranma.
** According to Mousse if she had just gave him the potion to fix his eyesight instead of being angry that he used her, he would already be married to Kasumi and Shampoo.
**Why did Kodachi name her pet turtle Mr. Giant Crocodile. Well, it certainly wouldn't do to call it Mr. Green Turtle now would it? Where is the imagination in that.
**The reasoning for Kasumi’s Heroic BSOD which the mental projection of her mother called her out on. There is a big difference between a Well-Intentioned Extremist and a Complete Monster, and even the former is a Principles Zealot. The fact that Kasumi is questioning the morality of her actions proves that she is neither. Just someone who is trying to come to terms with the consequence of what happened, which were no way her fault.
* Instant Armor: Sailor Moon's armor is an adaptive magical energy form. It draws on the user's own energy to create various effects, including acting as protection.
*In Spite of a Nail: Kasumi mistakes Bess for Ukyo
**Perfume and Ambergris’s name is based off the Contrived Coincidence of whoever was born first. Since both their mothers wanted to name their child Perfume the other ends up going with Ambergris unaware of its meaning. However Author Appeal usually ends up with Perfume being the Fragile Speedster 
**Cologne still has a Dual Age Modes, though the result of a technique instead of using an illusion to hide her true form.
**Averted when Kuno finally accepted that there was no place for him in Kasumi and Shampoo’s heart. He asked Ranma if he thought he had a shot with that Ranko girl, only to be told it was best to look elsewhere.
* Instant Expert: Kasumi was able to perform the Dragon Fang Fist on her second try something that took Shampoo several weeks. 
**Dhalsim told Kasumi that she had a natural talent for wielding her ki.
*Instant Humiliation: Just Add YouTube!: Someone posted Kimiko’s Clothing Damage incident on the internet.
* Internal Reveal: Makoto finally learned that Shampoo and Kaneda were married in chapter 17. 
** Ryoga finally learned of Kasumi’s curse in chapter 18
**Kodachi, Kuno and Makoto find out as well.
**Ukyo forgot about her confession letter after the drama of becoming Kasumi’s wife allowing Ranma to find it. 
***Secret Secret Keeper: He decided not to say anything about it.
**Soun didn’t know about Haruka until Genma told him.
**Ukyo finally learned what really happened at Jusenkyo while in Kasumi’s dreamscape.
*Invincible Hero: Kasumi can come across as this to the point where many were shocked when Ukyo defeated her.
*Irony: Kitsune is a Conspiracy Theorist yet the one thing she stumbles upon that turns out to be true namely that the Sailor Senshi are reincarnated princesses from the Moon Kingdom she doesn’t believe.
**The reason Ranma is such a Dogged Nice Guy is because he is either able to see Beneath the Mask like with Kodachi, or is Not So Different like with Shampoo. However his Stalker with a Crush Ukyo is someone he doesn’t truly know.
**The reason Nobu Hayao is The Generic Guy is because his standard non-conformity doesn’t measure up to the Cast Full of Crazy. Even the thing he does do to stand out such as crossdressing, since unlike canon Tsubasa he’s not a Hopeless Suitor he remains the Ridiculously Average Guy to people.
*It Only Works Once: Frost is unable to replicate how she gave Mousse control over his curse as it was his very particular mix of situations that is needed for it to work. Has to be both curses, his Moon Kingdom genes, and the familiar magic.
*It's All About Me: Herb generally believed that Kasumi made a special point to stay until Herb had arrived at the restaurant before going to work.
*It's All My Fault: Kasumi blames herself for not noticing Ukyo’s resentment before it festered into what it is today.
**This is the reason Kasumi entered her Heroic BSoD after defeating the monster hunters. Realizing just how outclassed they were against Mooks with You Have Outlived Your Usefulness failsafes. Her not knowing exactly who survived combined with the fact that this was all done to Save the Villain. All this caused Kasumi to start seriously question if she was Not So Different.
*It's Not Porn, It's Art: The mural Izou Horagashi painted of Nabiki and Kanada.
*It's Not You, It's Me: Ryoga decided to opt out of the group marriage not being able to deal with such a complicated relationship.
*It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time: Averted after Ryouko practically smashed through the door and dove into the hot bath water while he was in it. After she left he mumbled to himself how he knew letting Ranma have the dog would be trouble.
*Jaw Drop: Mint upon first seeing Lemon
*Jerkass Ball: After learning about Kasumi’s marriage to Shampoo and that she was now trapped in her cursed form Ranma’s first thought was that now the engagement was over. Akane immediately laid into him for that.
* Jerkass Gods: The gods are known to be incredibly petty and malicious
**Of course this is Classical Mythology we’re talking about so it’s a given. We haven’t seen any examples of other deities being this.
**Classical Mythology is referenced with special mention of Poseidon and Athena and how they gave birth to the Gorgons.
:: Grenda: Well, yeah, but that's the Greek Gods for you. Rapist, murders, and all around terribly reprehensible. If you ever have the misfortune to run into one, get away as quickly as possible.
**Arachne is also used as an example of how big of a Sore Loser Athena is.
* Jerkass Has a Point: While it is more of a combination of her bias against Kasumi and wanting to get her out of the way so that she can have a shot with Ranma. Ukyo is right that currently Failure Is the Only Option with Shampoo.
**Mousse is right in stating that his and Artemis’ situations are vastly different. However he gives himself the Sympathetic POV. While the white cat is clearly interested in his cursed form, and not exactly in an innocent way, unlike Mousse he’s not a Crazy Jealous Guy who believes he’s Entitled to Have You.
**As much of Jerkass Hidenori was to Ukyo all her life he was right that the techniques she learned were considered forbidden for a reason.
** He was also right that defeating Kasumi had consequences in of themselves.
**Given Shadow Moon’s level of power the Senshi would have to fight really hard to knock her out. However while this leads to the possibility of them seriously hurting her, its better then her killing them.
**Genma’s method of getting KKasumi to admit that she was sad that her mother was dead was cruel, but it worked.
**For specifics while she was being a Stepford Smiler Genma told her he threw away her mothers photo. 
::Kasumi: You... you... I HATE YOU GIVE BACK MY MOTHER!
::Genma: You said, bad things happen and we just have to accept that. That's wrong, Kasumi. Acceptance is not the ultimate solution. It is true, your mother is gone and will never come back, but lying to yourself and burying your feelings is not the answer. You cannot look at the world as if it is all is well. The world is far from a perfect place, and because of that, sometimes you must act to change things.
**Copycat Ken was hiding out disguised as a women so no one would track him down looking for revenge.
**Mordred wasn’t exactly in the wrong for revealing Guinevere’s affair as she was sleeping around.
* Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Unable to deal with Claigin crying Frost fixed his hammer.
*Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Frost refusing to allow Herb to use the Kaisuifu.
**The Jerks who decided to pretend to scared Kotori half to death by pretending they would rape her.
*The Juggernaut: Shadow Moon 
**The Inquisitor tanked a weapon known as the God-Slayer.
*Kaiju: The Aggressive Neko personality is described as this once it devoured enough of the others.
*Kamehame Hadoken: The Hadoken is powerful enough to destroy a mountain
**Rippa’s final attck on Ranma is described as the Ha Do Ken using the legs.
*Ki Manipulation: Proper chi control requires three essential elements, generation, isolation, and redirection.
*Kick the Dog: Ukyo giving Kasumi a "The Reason You Suck" Speech after learning about what happened with Shampoo.
**She had another one a moment later. Realizing that she went to far she apologized to Kasumi only to then immediately demand that she go back to china and marry Shampoo. Kasumi had a moment of hope with that apology that he could get through to Ukyo. However, now she had turned into an added obstacle to his cure.
**Hiro believes that the principle deliberately provoking the students
*Kick the Son of a Bitch: Frost turning Mousse into her familiar.
**Frost really had it coming after she destroyed the Kaisuifu especially since the entire conflict was her fault in the first place.
**The reason Takeshi was sent to Kasumi’s class was because he sent the guys who played a cruel rape joke on Kotori to the hospital.
*Kissing Under the Influence: While under still under the effect of Lemon’s Glamour Nabiki dragged Tsubasa to the supply shed.
*Kitsune: It turns out that members of the Fox Clan are actually these.
* The Klutz: If Artemis hadn’t tripped on a turned over bottle he would have escaped the pound.
*Knew It All Along: Cologne immediately realized that Haruka was female. 
**Cologne was always aware that C-chan was Mousse
**Genma was already aware that Haruka was female.
*Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Averted Ranko told Kasumi that she wasn’t the best person to go to for matter of sexual nature, but tried her best when she confided in her.
*Know When to Fold'Em: Kasumi after she was Mistaken for Gay by Nodoka. By this point with all of the Not What It Looks Like moments not only would she most likely not be believed, but it would make her look worse in her aunts eyes. Resigned to her fate, Kasumi decided to just concede the point, and focus on what Nodoka wished to know.
**Kuno realizing that his past actions made it highly unlikely he would win Kasumi’s love he gave Ranma his blessing.
** After getting over her Heroic BSOD Ukyo accepted that she was no match for Kasumi.
* "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: The only option left to the Senshi. If they just stood there she would kill them and still be under Bison’s control. They just had to hope she could make it thru it. 
**This was deconstructed with Bison-Kasumi. They weren’t really willing to go full out on someone they cared about so it just ended being a Curb Stomp Battle as they tried to get her to come to her senses.
*Kryptonite Factor: Averted Kitsunes are high level magical beings. They were once referred to as the favored of the Gods themselves, acting as messengers and enforcers. You don't get to that level and have easy to exploit Kryptonite like weaknesses.
*Kung Fu Wizard: While she could not hope to challenge Shampoo Frost has some martial arts talent. No apprentice of Cologne's could get away without some physical training.
** While ranged magic is the most common way mages fight, its not a requirement. High level magi need to learn direct combat skill as well.
*Laser-Guided Karma: Realizing that C-chan was most likely a jusenkyo victim Luna refused to tell Artemis wanting to watch him make a fool of himself. Then Minako pointed out that Mau can take human form, going so far as to wonder if Jusenkyo was how her species was created.
:: Luna: Humph, stupid... Like I really care. She can have the jerk.
**As thanks for rescuing her from a kidnapping attempt Karin not only paid for the repairs to Kasumi’s restaurant but expanded the premise.
** Akane even told Kasumi that all the good karma she built up would pay off.
**Happosai ended up petrified while trying to steal Grenda’s panties while she was in the shower, and thus wasn’t wearing her glasses. They decided to keep him like that.
**When Guan Li first met Saki she was an Empty Shell, pretty much catatonic due to witnessing her mother murder her father so she used the Xi Fa Xiang Gao on her.
* Last Ditch Move: Averted Ranma opted not to try and convince Kasumi to go on a date with Kuno.
* Lawful Stupid: Rhadamanthus is the one who lays down the law and Orcus is but the one who implements it. She would never violate a decree, even one she wholeheartedly disagreed with. It is in her nature.
* Lensman Arms Race: Averted after an Amazon magus made the Kaisuifu to reverse the Chiisuiton, the Musk took it and shipped it as far away as they could.
*Lesser of Two Evils: Makoto felt that having Kogane come along with them invisibly was this. while it makes Shampoo who can still see her look crazy, a bunch of people in a panic over seeing a ghost would probably be worse.
*Let's Get Dangerous: Seeing that Kuno wasn’t pulling his punches Kasumi-kun was forced to get serious.
**Realizing that they were both evenly matched when it came to traditional combat Ukyo and Kasumi opted to let their Powers Do the Fighting.
**After playing with Shampoo for awhile Kitsui decided to get serious.
**Rippa and Kitsui using their Combination Attack 
*Level Grinding: The Youma who’s apart of the Creature-Hunter Organization didn’t participate in the Dark Kingdom’s attack on the Moon Kingdom so after millennia of absorbing life force she’s strong enough that The Ascended Senshi are at the very least allowed to deal with her using Loophole Abuse.
*Light Is Not Good: Shadow Moon fights with a Light'Em Up.
*Like Goes with Like: Mint became attracted to Ukyo upon realizing she was cursed to transform into a wolf.
*Likes Older Men: Both played straight and averted since Shampoo wasn’t aware that Makoto was moving in when they met she initially thought she was talking about Soun when told that she would be living with Mr Tendo and wondered why she would want to live with such an older man.
*Literal Metaphor: Ukyo now transforms into a bitch another reason she thinks Kasumi did it on purpose
*Literal Split Personality: Frost fell in the Spring of Drowned Twins
*Literally Shattered Lives: Peach is able to do this defensively. Shattering her body when attacked and then putting it back together.
*The Load: Shampoo started to feel like this after repeated instances of her being a Damsel in Distress.
*Locked Out of the Loop: Rippa isn’t aware of Ukyo’s curse
**While everyone else went on a cruise Ukyo went back to the Manpukuji Temple. The others have done their best to keep her from finding out they were lost at see.
**Mousse wasn’t aware of Lemon’s kidnapping.
**Kitsune wasn’t aware of the Starlights, needless to say she was furious that no one informed her and her subsequent Freak-Out caused Soap to give her Laser-Guided Amnesia so she’d forget she ever told her about Seiya. 
*Logical Weakness: As a Ditto Fighter Copycat Ken also copies the inherit flaws of whoever he turns into. This means that he lack a fundamental understanding of the techniques he uses which his opponent can exploit.
** This also means he can’t use the technique if the person he’s copied hasn’t fully mastered it. As shown when Ken-sakura tried to use the Hadoken.
**He can only utilize the techniques of the current form he’s in.
**While the Skillet Touch works on ki attacks it doesn’t work on Elemental Powers. While it is done through Ki Manipulation it is not ki itself so Ukyo can’t negate it.
**Ranko’s ability doesn’t seem to work on Magitek
**The reason the Anti-Magic field at Hotel La Bac had more of an effect on Hinako and Cologne is because Hinako naturally has very little stamina without her augmented aura, and the elder is of a very advanced age and also requires her aura to off set most of the effects of that age.
** Martial Arts Dance is at its core still dance, and you dance to music. Take that music away and it’s practitioners can no longer fight. 
***Averted by the time Rippa was introduced he no longer needs it.
**Kitsui can only create illusions based off of her opponents memory.
**Ranko can’t be healed with magic.
**Ranko's effect can disrupt any spell it comes into contact with, but not ones that are too distant, even with a solid connection.
*The Lonely Door: The rogue youma has one of these. No one knows what does so her men have long stopped caring, but she finds it fascinating.
*Long-Lost Relative: After noticing how similar Kasumi and Kanade looked Kuno came to the conclusion that he was this out for revenge for being the Black Sheep.
**Guan Li turns out to be Saki’s grandmother
*Loony Friends Improve Your Personality: Though she was cleared to leave Usagi’s parents encouraged her to stay because her grades were improving.
*Loophole Abuse: Averted again when Mousse found Frost exhausted after finishing the Kaisuifu and tried to use it because Frost never said he couldn’t. Unfortunately while physically it had been repaired its enchantments still hadn’t been fixed yet.
** In a Martial Arts Dance Endurance Match you lose point anytime you leave the floor for longer then a second. However, as long as you keep a connection to the floor, you're okay, so your partner can lift you, or you can even use your opponent as a connection.
**The rules of the endurance match is that the contestants must continue to move. Even though Rippa was knocked out Kitsui used Synchronization to manipulate his body. So long as he continued to dance, unconscious or not, he would not lose points, and in fact she could use him to fight as well.
**Shampoo and Ranma got past the rule of not leaving the dance floor with a Ceiling Cling. The judges agreed and Kitsui and Rippa received a 25 point deduction for challenging it.
**Averted unlike Comb who lost to Hairbrush in a game of chess Saki’s mother refused to do something similar, but still insisted that she and Saki’s father had to marry. Meaning that it was disallowed by Amazon law.
**Queen Tranquility is affected by a powerful form of Transferable Memory|mind transfer magic that transfers her essence to her successor upon her death. The Queen's essence should only pass to Amazons, but what if something happened to trap it in a rebirth of its previous host, one reborn not as an Amazon, but a common woman? Well, quite simply, the magic would get... stuck. It also can’t transfer to another host as long as the current is alive. So how do you fix it adopt her into the Amazons.
*Lotus Eater Machine: Rose locked Usagi’s mind into a dream world in order to control her body.
**When Shadow Moon fights Usagi believes she is playing a fighting game based off the Sailor Senshi with her friends.
*Lotus Position: This is the sort of stereotypical meditation
*Love at First Punch: Herb became obsessed with Kasumi after she defeated him.
*Love at First Sight: Nabiki to Kasumi-kun before realizing who he was 
**In universe it is the result of a challenge given to Derek by Serena.
*Love Dodecahedron: Wade somehow managed to impart even MORE complexity to the Ranma universe's romance shenanigans than they already had.
*Love Epiphany: Mousse had a minor one when he realized he knew far more about Akane then Shampoo.
* Love Is a Drug: Sex with a Kitsune sure is. Kitsune enchantment that deep can't be so easily removed. That would actually cause a chemical shift in the brain that goes beyond the magic, very much like a drug. You would become entirely dependent on it.
*Lovable Sex Maniac: Instead of the dorms Yotogi Shinja arranged it so that she’d stay at a Love Hotel. She described it as shear bliss and was furious when the teacher found out and made her leave.
*Loving a Shadow: A parental example. This is the underlining cause for Ukyo’s father’s Why Couldn't You Be Different? mentality to her. Kasumi was often held up as an example Ukyo should strive to emulate. Kasumi had not been perfect, but in Ukyo's father's eyes she was, and it was that image Ukyo had to compete with. So, of course, in the end she failed to live up to the paragon. Despite all her training, all her attempts to live up to perfection, she fell short.
*Loving Details: This is what caused Mousse to realize that Failure Is the Only Option when it came to winning Shampoo’s affection. While he knew specific details, unlike Kasumi he didn’t know these.
*Loves Me Not: A variation Ukyo did this using Married to Ranma and Married to Kasumi
*Mad Doctor: The Doctor 
**A doctor who lived during Cosmos rein put his skills to horrendous use and became a sadistic serial killer.
*Made of Magic: Natural magic users are creatures of magic who tend to form magical fields in a noticeably... organic way. Humans and other trained magic users tend to form more deliberate constructs
* Made Out to Be a Jerkass: Done in universe for all Haruka knows Kasumi-kun attacked him for no reason.
**Later when she met Shampoo again she pulled a You Know What You Did much to her confusion.
**After Herb and Sissithississ learned the truth Lemon enchanted a group of restaurateurs into attacking them.
*Magic A Is Magic A: The complexity of a spell determines how difficult it is to perform. For example conjuring a bucket is easy as it is just some wood in a simple configuration held together by anything that can exert an even pressure around its circumference. Compare that to a bed which is wood, fabric, steel, not to mention bolts, nails, screws and other junk in a fairly complex configuration. Also the mass is a lot more.
**Magic manipulation is much like manipulating chi, it isn't easy, and is draining. Very few can even tinker around with the basics of magic. Even fewer can use the craft effectively. And of those, only a small fraction, are qualified to wield it at full strength.
**Jusenkyo seems to work like this. For example Mousse fell into the Spring of Drowned Mau first. So when he was tossed into the Spring of Drowned Girl instead of transforming into a Catgirl he turns into a female cat.
*Magic Enhancement: The Dragon Fang Fist encharges user’s punches with a power ki based energy discharge on impact.
** Herb uses his chi to augment his physical abilities.
*Magic Feather: Toma uses his sword as a focus of his magic, so it is largely useless.
*Magic Genetics: Curses appear to act as this which is why both Kitsune and Gorgon have Gender-Restricted Ability
*Magic Misfire: Luckily Frost ended up mispronouncing the spell when she tried to kill Kasumi.
*Magic-Powered Pseudoscience Shadow Moon is an interesting example. The Nanomachines injected into Usagi feed off of Sailor Moon's normal energy field and convert that energy into some sort of electro-magnetic field. While they can’t make her use her normal powers since their magical in nature, they don’t really need to.
*Magical Artifacts: Since Mana is finite most magus will make use of such tools eventually as they act as a mana storage vessel.
* Magical Database: Frost has a book that holds magical copies of all Amazon history.
*Magical Queer: Rippa has signs of this. He gives Ranma the tools he needs to get stronger. And advices him to fix the Love Dodecahedron he was in.
**Rippa expressed skepticism about the nature of Ranma's extended engagement with Ukyo, Kasumi and Shampoo, encouraging him to make efforts improve the situation.
**After Shampoo explained to Kitsui how she had been used as a hostage to get to Kasumi. Kitsui correctly concluded from this that defeating her an her brother was seen as a way to prove that wouldn't happen again. She got her to admit that no matter what, she could not ensure it wouldn't happen again. Despite this though, while it was depressing, Shampoo admitted she felt better. Kitsui gave an analogy to her own life where she tried to deny her sexuality, and only when she accepted it did she feel better, explaining "it isn't an answer you like, but it's the truth, and it's a truth you can work with. You can't work with the impossible." She then motivated Shampoo by saying they could make it less likely.
*Magicians Are Wizards: Averted Frost was offended when Usagi asked her to show her a trick like some phony of a stage magician.
*Magitek: Usagi was transformed into a cyborg by Shadowloo
**They eventually gain full control over her magic.
*Make It Look Like an Accident: This happens to grooms who fail the Fidelity Test.
**Frost was planning on doing this to Kasumi to get Shampoo out of her marriage.
**Quite often Kounji Ninja assassinations were done with such precision and subtly as to be accepted as a mere accident.
*Making Love in All the Wrong Places: Azusa doesn’t seem to mind doing this.
*Malevolent Architecture: Hotel La Bac is set up with trap after trap, deception after deception. It is a nearly unending series of near death moments, dispersed between moments of bizarreness, even madness. One floor is little more than holograms. After spending three days there Kasumi was at the edge of her physical and mental endurance.
*Mama Bear: The mother personality of Kasumi looking for her son rushed the giant aggressive neko personality because her son might be in one of the houses it was crushing.
*Man of Kryptonite: Creatures of magic are particularly badly affected by contact with Ranko, their mana systems running wild. Even a few seconds of contact with Ranko was enough to completely disable and nearly kill Peach, a 9 tailed kitsune.
*Marionette Master: Kitsui’s People Puppets technique works by using Synchronization to link her nervous system with opponents. However she becomes this trope is the person in unconscious since they can’t fight her control.
*Marital Rape License: Frost was tricked into thinking that Kasumi did this.
*Martial Pacifist: Kasumi to the point where she can even Happosai can’t sense her movements. Her battle aura is so minuscule; it might as well be invisible.
*Mark Of The Supernatural: While a casual inspection might have mistaken the Inquisitor for human, the creepy, inhumanly wide smile on her face and the Black Eyes of Evil easily gave away her inhuman nature.
*Mask of Sanity / Obfuscating Insanity: Every time Shin Kikai is sent for a psychiatric evaluation he turns suddenly sane. The question is which trope applies to him.
*Massive Multiplayer Crossover: For those a bit confused on the crossovers: Usagi, Rei, Minako, Makoto, Ami, Haruka, Michiru, Hotaru, Setsuna, Luna, and Artemis are all from Sailor Moon. Kitsune has her ties to The X-files, but only in that she's a fanatic of similar interests rather than appearing in said show. Saki and Sampei are from Sukeban Deka. You may also notice Frost borrowing a spell from here or there; in particular Gargoyles and Illusionaries are two prime targets. Speaking of Gargoyles, if you're a fan of the series you may have already figured this out, but La Bac is Cabal spelt backwards. Also Gen-U-Tech is also a business from Gargoyles. Does that mean this is a Gargoyles cross over? Haven't decided, could just be me stealing ideas ^_^. Anyway, besides that we have Chun Li, Rose, Shadow Lady, Shadow, Gill and the previously shown Karin and Sakura which come from Street Fighter series (Rose, Karin and Sakura from Street Fighter Alpha 3, Shadow and Shadow Lady from Marvel vs Capcom, Chun Li from much of the Street Fighter series, and now Gill from Street Fighter III). As for Ranko, well she's from my other major fanfic, Most Unlikely of Friends, although you can largely consider her standard Ranma trapped in female form for most purposes. And lastly comes dear old Siren who is from Dreiser's story 'Black Rose Blue Thunder'. I won't be using her much but she fits a temporary need.
**Be Dea comes from D B. Sommers fic Shampoo ½, and if you haven't read it, do so, now! I've also previously mentioned Perfume from same fic (although this story has two Perfumes being mentioned, the other being from my own Most Unlikely of Friends).
**Miku, Neru and Haku from Vocalois had cameos where they acted as judges in the match between Shampoo, Ranma and Buyou Twins.
**Averted with Mahou Sensei Negima. Word of God states that as UQ Holder!, Negima's continuation, is still in progress and throwing in all kinds of new curve balls, he'll probably be forced to steer clear.
*Master of Illusion: Kasumi has shown the ability to project simple illusions of herself. The exact nature of these is unclear but they lack any substance. She later developed a far more advanced version after being joined with Rose. This version allows Kasumi to project an image of herself fully capable of combat, although only for a limited time and presumably with reduced effectiveness from herself.
**After being possessed by Rose Kasumi gained a far more advanced version of her illusion technique. This version allows Kasumi to project an image of herself fully capable of combat, although only for a limited time and presumably with reduced effectiveness from herself.
*Master of the Mixed Message: This is why Shampoo told Ranma that she would choose Herb over him. Despite him openly stating that Shampoo is of little to importance to him and he’s only interested in Kasumi. He is at least open about it, Shampoo knows this and understand it. Meanwhile she has no idea what Ranma wants. He started out as a Dogged Nice Guy to Kodachi who wanted nothing to do with Kasumi. While he’s gotten over Kodachi he’s still hasn’t fully realized his feelings for Kasumi even though Everyone Can See It. The Unlucky Everydude is a completely foreigm trope to Shampoo who is used to wearing her emotions on her sleeve. Herb she at least understands.
*Master Poisoner: The Snake Clan are experts in poison.
*The Matchmaker: Kodachi sent Tofu and Akane letters that stated that the other wanted to meet them at a restaurant.
*Mating Dance: Kitsui enjoys Flirting Under Fire 
*Mathematician's Answer: Zig zagged when Kitsune first asked Morgan weather she was human or Fey she just answered yes. After being told that wasn’t funny she admitted she was a Half-Human Hybrid.
*Me's a Crowd: After the gate was shut down Setsuna decided to awaken all of her clones. They would end up taking over the various aliases she created around the world.
* Medusa: She and her sisters are the progenitors of Gorgon
*Meaningful Look: Haruka and Michiru used this to discuss taking in Shampoo. Holding an entire conversation in their glances.
*Meaningful Rename: Garnet (Herb's father) was originally named Garlic, but he rejected this name since it was given to him by Sorora.
*Meditation Powerup: Some mental techniques use meditations as training, generally they involve allowing oneself to dive into your own mind. For example visualization meditation simulate fights or combat situations. It is theorized that this trope might help Usagi control her power.
*Meet the In-Laws: Kasumi met Comb and Hairbrush when they came to Japan to observe her and Shampoo’s marriage.
*Megaton Kick: Rippa used one of these to stop the stalemate between him and Ranma.
*Mental Fusion: While Rose possessed Kasumi’s body some of her memories merged with Kasumi’s. There was enough for her to learn most of Rose’s Soul techniques. While Bison’s Psycho Power was also there Kasumi opted not to learn it due to its vile nature.
* Merger of Souls: Rose's soul is merely a part of Bison’s. So when he leaves her body so will she. This is why the last time he attempted to leave failed, he attempted to separate himself at the same time.
*Merging Mistake: Mousse was tossed into the Nyannīchuan shortly after falling into the Maonīchuan.
*Metaphorically True: Nabiki was selling pictures of Kasumi it wasn’t her justification for her little collection.
**Kasumi used immersion therapy as an excuse for why she was allowing Akane to keep C-chan. While Nodoka admitted it was a very good argument she didn’t buy it for a second, forcing Kasumi to admit she just didn’t want Akane to resent her.
**In answer to Ranma’s protest that he wanted to have a choice in who he marries, Genma replied that he did Akane, Nabiki, or Kasumi.
* Mighty Glacier: This was Ranma’s strategy in the Endurance Match stand near the edge so that Rippa can’t attack him from behind. However it s ultimately subverted because it only works since Ranma still has the speed advantage despite Rippa being able to Flash Step.
**Played straight due to the fact that due to being rusty Ranma had to take a beating before getting a proper hold on Rippa’s rhythm.
*The Mind Is a Plaything of the Body: Extended periods in a cursed form can alter one's core identity. You start to think of yourself as whatever you've transformed into. The effect takes longer with creatures of more intelligence like humans, but with animals, give them about a month and they are totally lost in a new form's identity.
** Prolonged time in cursed form can change ones own self-image. Too much time and you lose your original identity, that of the cursed form taking over. It is uncertain whether it is a function of the curse, or simply a psychological response to current condition, but either way the effect is the same.
** Thankfully it does take time. Changing back and forth often is harmless. At worst you gain too much familiarity with the other form, but your identity remains intact. It takes weeks or months constantly in a cursed form for your identity to be really effected.
**Kasumi is afraid her attraction to Shampoo is this.
**You don’t have the same safeguards when you Spirit Walk that you do when you occupy your body. An impulse can easily be expressed in reality instead of just thought
*Mind Rape: Kitsui employs a mental attack technique. The victim is forcibly induced to experience hallucinations. Her technique is one of the most advanced forms, one that can force someone into a dream-like state. It is a very dangerous form of attack.
** Nightmare Waltz tapped its victim into a memory which is personally frightening to them.
* Misplaced Wildlife: Turns out Ukyo is a wolf not a dog.
*A Mistake Is Born: It’s made pretty clear hinted that Saki is the result of this.
*Mistaken for Gay: This happened to Kasumi when she and Ryoga finally met again. Since she was trapped in her cursed form and couldn’t explain about Jusenkyo Ryoga notice how nicely Mr. Tendo was treating him, uneasily too nice coming from another man. Ryoga got even more uneasy at this strangely caring attention he was receiving, and decided it was time to get out there.
**When Azusa used her cutesy snuggle upon realizing that Ukyo was Charlotte, the announcer wonder if she was a lesbian. 
::Ukyo: IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!
**Hilariously played with. While Kanada could technically be considered gay or at the very least Bisexual, Ryoga isn’t aware of the curse of the fact Kasumi was currently locked. So where Kasumi has happy to interact with an old friend even if he could tell him who he really is, Ryoga mistook his action as him hitting on him.
**After one to many Not What It Looks Like moments Nodoka just accepted the fact that Kasumi was gay. She made sure that Kasumi knew this, stressed that she shouldn’t wait to tell her father, and also expressed her concern that she that she didn’t Settled for Gay because of her curse.
*Mistaken for Subculture: Kitsune keeps accusing Saki of being a yakuza
*Mister Seahorse: Averted because of her curse Kasumi can’t have children. Any other, non gender curse would not interfere in child bearing. The unborn child would simply take a form appropriate to the other body. However, as a male there is no appropriate form. The child would simply cease to exist. You might consider it the ultimate form of birth control.
*Modified Clone: Shadow and Shadow Lady were created using a cloning accelerant stolen from Gen-U-Tech. One property of this agent is it stains the pigments of any biological material it is used on. The result is a clone that is very dark stained. They are also able to turn invisible and shoot missiles.
*Monogender Monsters: Due to a curse Kitsune are only born female. Eyebright is but one of a handful of true male kitsunes left.
*Moral Myopia: Jasmine called Shampoo out for her condemnation of Lemon, pointing out that her methods aren't that dissimilar to the usual for the Amazons. As well as the fact that their credo is to destroy obstacles in their path, and they all are more than willing to employ a little mind altering magic if it suits their goals.
*More Than Mind Control: While the Shadaloo Psycho Serum played a big factor in Copycat Ken reaching his Rage Breaking Point. He is also an incredibly Sore Loser.
* Morton's Fork: After Kasumi called phoned Saki’s sponsor for her whereabouts the Dark Inspector sent Kyoichira Jin to tell her to move into the dorms. If she refused the rental agreement for her apartment would be quashed.
*Multicolored Hair: Due to Azusa’s dye effecting her true form as well Ukyo’s hair color has changed to not just one uniform shade of pink but the full spectrum of pink, from pale almost blond to so deep it was almost as purple as Shampoo's hair.
*Mum Looks Like a Sister: One of the members of the Mage Council is this. In fact, the she and her daughter looked so close that it almost seemed they were twins. It didn’t help that one was a Manchild while the other was an Adorably Precocious Child.
*Mundane Utility: Herb used a forbidden Musk ritual to get dating advice.
**Rippa and Kitsui teach dance classes.
** Averted despite his best efforts Rippa has been unable to start a dance club so was forced to join track where they won’t let him use Flash Step
*Murder Is the Best Solution: Averted Ukyo never planned on killing Kasumi just giving her a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
**Averted Logos pointed out that killing Usagi in an attempt to prevent Cosmos reawakening would just kick the can down the road a few years. She will inevitably be reborn and the Ascended Senshi can't even be certain she would be reborn on earth. Terminating her simply delays the problem and risks it going out of control because they can't locate her.
**Orcus also pointed out that they had no means to truly kill her. They couldn't even kill her daughter Chaos, and Cosmos is far more powerful and less understood.
*Murder the Hypotenuse: Lemon attempted to use Frost to do this.
**Averted when Ranma and Herb finally fought the former never once thought that that was what the prince was attempting when he challenged him.
*Must Have Caffeine: Averted neither Hinako nor Kasumi drink coffee
*My Girl Is Not a Slut: Kei might not be a martial artist but as the teammate who suggested he must have to keep her on a pretty tight leash after witnessing her Defeat by Modesty he would have received rave reviews from any of the school's students who were.
* My Greatest Failure: For Shampoo it was slashing her friends face in a fit of anger. The guilt of which caused her to lose her drive to be the best. 
**For Nodoka it’s letting Genma take Kasumi which is why she is so hard on him about his actions as well as reluctant to let him train Ranma. While Kasumi wanted to go she was a child who didn’t understand to complexity of the situation. It was Nodoka’s responsibility to say no.
**Guan Li was planning to take Saki back to the village with her after her father died, but given her trauma, and her absolute insistence on being with her mother, she decided to let the matter lie for a time. By the time she realized what a bad choice this was, it became difficult to find Saki, and by the time she did she was jailed.
::Guan Li: Don't. As I said, when I left you behind, I think I made a grave error. If not that, my raising of my child was apparently grossly flawed.
::Saki: I'm not going to hold that against you.
::Guan Li: You need not. I hold it against myself.
***This is why Siren is such a procrastinator; she needs to make sure everything is perfect.
*My Suit Is Also Super: Downplayed Michiru took Kasumi to Haruka’s tailor so that she could get clothing that looks good in both of her forms.
*Mythology Gag: After learning about Saki’s sister Miyuki Kitsune told Sampai that the girl he was meeting at his marriage interview might be her. Sampai eventually becomes CEO of his father's company and got to marry Miyuki in the manga canon.
*Naïve Animal Lover: This was Dr Sakai’s reaction when Ranma gave him the excuse that Ukyo was the pet of an old friend. Telling that a wolf was a dangerous anmal and was in now way convinced when RRanma told him she was perfectly tame. Though Ukyo putting up her best look of friendliness seemed to calm him down enough to perform his examination.
*Naked Freak-Out: Kimiko upon realizing that she had ripped her swimsuit off not just in front of her boyfriend but the entire swim team.
*Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Discussed in universe after learning that the other person who attacked the old section 7 leader was referred to as the Assassin Devlin joked that he must be a very upstanding citizen.
*Nanomachines: Shadowloo used these to robotize Sailor Moon against her will.
**The nanobots go about their work by trapping you in a dream state in which you are much more controllable. However, ultimately, once they gain enough control they no longer have need of you. It is unknown what they do with your consciousness then. Most likely you're simply left in the dream state, only vaguely aware of what you are doing.
*** They actually Mind Rape them so that they become an Empty Shell. Since their consciousness is no longer needed.
**Bison also used them on Kasumi to aid in his possession of her.
*The Napoleon: Frost seemed to have extremely bad luck, even when it came to genetics. This leads to her efforts to prove herself.
*Nature Adores a Virgin: Kitsui sure does. She lost interest in Shampoo upon learning that she had a wife.
* Necromancer: Averted Devin knows Necromancy to be sure, but his specialty is actually conjuring.
** Necromancy isn't very popular, as you can probably guess. So most mages specialize in other fields and just dabble in it.
*I Need a Freaking Drink: Sissithississ while wording why he accepted the mission to find Herb.
*Nerds Are Sexy: Ami became attracted to Herb upon realizing how intelligent he was.
*Never Bring a Knife to A Fist Fight: Before her match with Kasumi Ukyo gave her father her Battle Spatula stating that she no longer needed it.
* Never My Fault: It wasn’t Nabiki’s fault she accidentally sent Kuno on the warpath against Kasumi-kun it was just bad timing.
**The itching powder was a practical joke it wasn’t Kodachi’s fault that Kimiko decided to jump in a pool in her leotard.
**Ukyo accused Kasumi of taking her time in rescuing her from the Golden Pair. Conveniently forgetting about her earlier Groin Attack which had incapacitated Kasumi something she was quick to call her out on.
**As Genma noted and Kasumi agreed with she wanted to continue the Nekoken training and hadn’t read the manual either assuming Genma had. However as the others quickly pointed out Genma was the adult in that situation and should have said no.
*Never Speak Ill of the Dead: Averted Kuno started cheering when Kanada was thrown into a wall by the Goodbye Whirl.
*Nice Guy: Seeing that Frost was an albino Tofu brought her sun block.
*Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Kasumi accidentally pushed Ukyo into the spring of drowned dog in a neko-ken induced blind panic.
**A literal example Kasumi pushed Mikado’s Berserk Button hard by knocking out his front tooth.
**Akane and Shampoo’s decision to intervene during the fight at the restaurant only ended up distracting Ranma and Kasumi.
**Zigzagged when Frost cast a spell to put a stop to the restaurant brawl and accidentally hit Shampoo instead. However since it was a Supernatural Fear Inducer she could have unleashed the nekoken.
**Frost destroying the Kaisuifu.
**Due to the power it took to take out Lime Frost ended up distracting Kasumi allowing Herb to get away.
*Ninja: The Kounji clan started out as this. The cooking was merely a cover, a means to an end and nothing more. Oh, a man could have guards and walls to protect him, but he had to eat sooner or later.
*No Bisexuals: In universe Shampoo couldn’t see herself with another woman this is mainly due to the Deliberately Bad Example given by Mousse of what love is. Averted when she met Michiru and Haruka and saw what a real loving relationship was. They even reminded her of how her parents act.
**The Amazon’s themselves actually avert this as bisexuality is used as Loophole Abuse against their same sex laws since they are able to continue the bloodline.
*No Conservation of Energy: Averted Derekloffin has always used the Gargoyles line 'Energy is energy, whether generated through science or sorcery' as a guide, although obviously with the addition of ki in there. However big your internal battery is, it is limited. Even the Ha do can drain the local area of free energy and have nothing left. 
**Played straight with e Senshi who have a whole planet of energy backing them up. For them it is just a matter how fast they can access it.
**Jusenkyo averting this is what makes the curses so powerful.
**Averted according to Word of God the line from Gargoyles 'Energy is energy, whether generated through science or sorcery' is used as a guide. However big your internal battery is inner ki is definitely not limitless. Even the Ha Do can drain the local area of free energy and have nothing left. Really, the only group that can largely ignore this are the Senshi who have a whole planet of energy backing them up. For them it is just a matter how fast they can access it.
*No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Kasumi was going over to stop the fight between Ranma, Ukyo and the Golden Pair when Ukyo grabbed him and agreed to Mikado’s challenge.
**Wanting to surprise Mousse brought him his cure only to over hear his "The Reason You Suck" Speech.
**While Usagi and Minako were transferred to Kasumi’s class for legitimate reasons. Ami was transferred for speaking up in their defense. The teacher was having a bad weak.
**In Ukyo’s mind all her problems started when her father gave a hungry Kasumi a free sample.
**Averted when Frost tried to kill Ranko to get to Kasumi her Anti-Magic field protected her.
*No Guy Wants to Be Chased: Ranko is put off by Kitsui’s aggressive nature.
*No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Haruka was on the receiving end of one by Kasumi-kun.
* "No. Just... No" Reaction: This was Nodoka’s reaction when Ranma brought Ryouko to her. having heard it a hundred times before she stopped him before he could ask to keep her and just told Ranma she was his responsibility.
*No Name Given: Soun has a younger sister, who is married to a Nishikawa, and has a daughter and son, but her name is never given.
**All There in the Manual tells us that her name is most likely Mariko.
* No One Could Survive That: This is why Chun Li was shocked that Bison was Not Quite Dead.
*No Sell: Lime did this to Frost’s Fulmenos venite spell
**Ukyo to Lemon’s attempts at defeating her
**The man who kidnapped Lemon did this to her enchantment, merely commented on how big a commission he’d get for her.
*Nobody Calls Me Chicken: Azusa didn’t really fight Ukyo seriously until she called her a coward. After all her fans were watching.
*Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond: When Makoto expressed her shock that Ki attacks were real Akane looked at her as if she just asked if the sky was really blue
**According to Kyoichira Jin Saki would be considered the sixth best fighter at Furinkan, and even that is being generous.
*Not Helping Your Case: Frost throwing a tantrum when Kasumi thought she was a little girl playing a game due to Magic Misfire.
**Mousse attacking Ranma for going on a date with Kasumi
**Frost telling Herb that she accidently broke the Kaisuifu in an attempted attack on her really didn’t help matters much.
**After Mousse claimed he averted Crazy Jealous Guy Frost asked if he would have stood idly by and let Shampoo date Fei Zhao. Mousse immediately responded by calling him a jerk who didn’t know how to treat Shampoo. It turns out Frost made him up.
**Ukyo arriving at her match with Kasumi and finding her father there. 
::Ukyo: Father, I should have guessed you'd take her side.
** Kuno challenging Mikado during their date ended up reminding Shampoo why she didn’t like him.
*Not Me This Time: Ken wasn’t the one who framed Kasumi for rape.
*Not Quite Dead: Bison was believed to be killed by Akuma.
** This is why the Ascendant Senshi didn’t help deal with Chaos. They had already fought her to the point that she was little more than a field of energy, then Galaxia got involved. When Galaxia finished her, she fooled them by joining with Galaxia. Quaoar was actually going to intervene when she revealed herself, but it proved unnecessary.
**It turns out that Bison survived his encounter with Akuma.
*Not So Above It All: Ranma has the occasional fantasy of petty revenge before squashing it.
**Kasumi chided herself for feeling a little pleasure over the fact that Ukyo was going to the vet.
**Kasumi caught a hint of the Green-Eyed Monster when Shampoo decided to go on a date with Kuno instead of her. Cologne went so far as to ask Kasumi if she was fully free of the effects of the Dark/Light Ha Do when she caught her.
*Not So Different: Neither Ranma or Shampoo train up to their potential the reason being their defeat of a former friend years ago. Though the circumstances for which they departed are different. 
**Averted with Mousse other then being a Dogged Nice Guy Ranma is nothing like him, to the point where he eventually realizes that he can’t keep chasing after someone who doesn’t want him.
**A He Who Fights Monsters example. Mousse is an Entitled Bastard who will stop at nothing to win Shampoo’s love no matter he has to do and who he has to hurt. Frost is her efforts to get revenge on him as well as protect Shampoo from men like him doesn’t care what she has to do or who she has to hurt.
**Both Shampoo and Ranma lost their drive to get better after a prolonged period of being the best. For if there was no one left who could challenge them, what was the point of getting better.
*Not So Similar: Both Ranma and Mousse are Dogged Nice Guys with a manipulative streak. However misguided it is Ranma generally is attracted to Kodachi and the worst he has done is be The Matchmaker. In an effort to get out of his engagement he plays up Kuno’s more positive traits while trying to convince him to give up his Best Her to Bed Her mentality. Mousse by contrast is a Jerk with a Heart of Jerk who sees Shampoo as a prize to be won and will do anything to win her love no matter who he has to hurt.
**Shampoo initially saw Kuno as an overconfident version of Mousse. However her views changed while they were on their date. Oh, he’s faltered now and then, but he was making a very noticeable effort to restrain himself.
***Averted when Mikado showed up and Kuno attacked him upon remembering how he kissed Shampoo. She found his idea of chivalry insulting as defend her honor instead of letting her deal with the matter herself was something that Mousse would do.
* Not What It Looks Like: Ranma woke up to a topless Kasumi on top of him who had fallen on him while trying to get Ukyo out of the room. Fortunately he quickly past out from a Nosebleed. Unfortunately the noise had attracted the attention of Nodoka who was getting a drink of water.
**After nearly tripping over a bucket of water left in the middle of the hall an irritated Kasumi attempted to properly dispose of its contents. Unfortunately Ukyo happened to be there in the middle of making her Love Confession. Needless to say after dodging the water Ukyo took it the wrong way. 
::Ukyo: THIS IS HOW YOU KEEP YOUR PROMISES, YOU... YOU... YOU...
**Averted when Kodachi snuck into Kasumi’s bed at night. When Nodoka came into the room she found the suggestive image of Kaneda standing on the floor by his bed, his arms around Kodachi's waist. Kodachi bent over the bed, her hands gripping the mattress firmly. Her backside pressed firmly into Kaneda's boxers, vigorously resisting Kaneda's efforts to pull her from his bed. Fortunately she was fully aware of Kodachi’s antics so realized what had happened.
**Sampei ran afoul of Happosai and ended up with a pile of bra and panties.
**Mrs Ono walking as Tofu was helping Frost with her migraine. They didn’t even bother to try and correct her and just hung their heads in embarrassment.
*Now It's My Turn: Ranma soon gained the upper hand after breaking out his Pressure Point technique.
*Now What?: For most Akane’s life she had known one thing, that she'd be married to Ranma. She hadn't liked it but it had been a constant that she could count on. Suddenly that constant was gone. It left her a bit lost.
* Nebulous Evil Organisation: The Creature Hunter Organisation are merely known as The Organization
*Obfuscating Stupidity: Ranma when he tried to pretend he wasn’t trying to play The Matchmaker.
*Oblivious Guilt Slinging: The reason Ukyo didn’t tell Ranma about her curse is because right before she did he started calling out Sasuke for taking advantage of Kasumi’s fear of cats.
*Oblivious to Love: Ranma doesn’t notice Ukyo’s obvious crush on him.
**Kasumi generally didn’t understand why Herb was holding back so much during their fight.
**This is the greatest sign that no matter the universe Ranma is still Ranma. Even Kuno could tell that he was starting to develop feelings for Kasumi before he did. 
***Ukyo noticed it as well, but definitely wasn’t happy about it.
*Obliviously Evil: Akira doesn’t understand why Ukyo is so obsessed with
**Both Lemon and Ken could feel the foul nature of the rogue youma oozing off of her.
*Obnoxious In-Laws: Downplayed Comb is just incredibly blunt and intrusive.
*Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Nodoka giving Hidenori a What the Hell, Hero? for his treatment of Ukyo.
*Oh Crap: Nabiki when Akane almost picked up the picture of Kasumi-kun that dropped out of her bag. 
**Ukyo upon realizing that she had grabbed Kanada instead of Ranma when agreeing to Mikado’a challenge.
**Frost finally realized how much danger she was in when Lime no selled her attack.
** Ukyo had a subdued one upon realizing that Mint was interested in her when told that he is part wolf.
**Haruka after realizing the man she had been fighting was Kasumi and seeing the scrowl on her face.
**Mousse seeing Shampoo morph into Frost
**Frost upon realizing that she had been manipulated into attacking Kasumi. If it wasn’t for Tofu she would have pack her bags and ran back to china away from a vengeful Shampoo
**Usagi when Makoto told her that long distance costs by the minute and that phoning North America isn't cheap.
** Saki upon realizing that the Dark Inspector works for Shadowloo.
**Ranma when Nodoka gave him a pack of condoms when told that he and Shampoo were going out dancing.
**Seiya upon being told that Usagi was aware of everything said and done outside of the barrier she was placed in.
**Lemon upon realizing that Herb was aware of not only her true nature but everything she had been doing up until now.
** Ukyo when Peach performed Literally Shattered Lives 
**Cologne had a mild resigned one once Siren realized that she was starting to regain her youth or at the very least her vitality.
**Everyone’s reaction when Kasumi woke up only to refer to herself as Ted
** This was everyone’s reaction when the aggressive neko personality ate Tex as it meant that it was growing stronger running the risk of it becoming the dominant personality.
**Makoto upon realizing that there might be more rouge youma out there.
* Old Friend: Rippa Buyou is an old rival of Ranma’s.
*Older Than They Look: Frost is eighteen, despite any conclusions one might make due to her small stature.
*One Degree of Separation: Kasumi met Mousse on the road near Jusenkyo actually, and the two traveled together for a few days. Until they met again Kasumi had no idea that Shampoo was the girl Mousse told her he was in love with.
**Tofu’s grandmother studied in China many of the techniques his mother passed on to him. She even studied with the Amazons for a time.
**The Joketsuzoku were formerly allied with the Moon Kingdom before said kingdom's fall at the hands of the Dark Kingdom. Much of the Joketsuzoku's odd genetics can be traced to cross breeding with those of the Moon Kingdom.
**Before the time of the council, the Joketsuzoku were ruled by a Queen, the last of which was called Tranquility. Tranquility herself was bounded to then Queen of the Moon Kingdom, Serenity, in a marriage like arrangement, but one more akin to a blood sister bond. Tranquility died during the battle with the Dark Kingdom, although it has been noted that Usagi's current day mother bears a strong resemblance to Tranquility and thus may be her reborn.
**The grand magus Jasmine knows the Dragon Lord Garnet.
**Guan Li gave Saki a picture of her and her mother.
**It turns out that the same person who created Jusenkyo also created the Senshi’s Henshin sticks.
**Makoto never met Rose.
*One Dialogue, Two Conversations: When Kasumi went to apologize to Ranma for the Not What It Looks Like situation the night before only to be surprised when he acted so nonchalant about it. She quickly realized that he had forgotten it somehow.
**Knowing that Shampoo was listening in Cologne didn’t mention her Exact Eavesdropping in order to give both her and Kasumi words of encouragement.
*One-Gender Race: Members of the Fox Clan can only give birth to females.
*One Sided Rivalry: Much to Ukyo’s surprise Kasumi felt safe letting her into her mind.
::Ukyo: I think you messed up, lady. No way Kasumi wants me in her mind.
::Rose: There is no mistake. You five and one other were the only ones in range that she would allow within. Whatever conflict you have with Kasumi, she apparently does not view it as a disqualifying one.
::Ranma: Hey, if Pops here is allowed in too, Kasumi must be pretty chill with the whole thing.
*OOC Is Serious Business: Artemis was shocked when Makoto told him that Kanade was much more handsome then her old sempai.
**Ranma’s sudden The Big Damn Kiss to Kasumi. It turned out to be Copycat Ken.
**Siren telling Frost not to finish the enchantment on the Kaisuifuu. Hearing the unusually harsh tone in her Eccentric Mentor’s voice silenced any protest Frost might have.
**Mikado apologizing to Shampoo for his earlier actions.
**Shampoo was shocked when Kuno compared himself to Kasumi and found himself wanting. Since it wasn't like Kuno at all to admit something like that, even of Kasumi. She began to wonder if her trick her.
** The only time the smile left Kitsui’s face was when Shampoo told her that Kasumi was her wife.
*Open-Minded Parent: Averted according to Ranma Nodoka nearly had a stroke when she found out that Rippa was gay.
* Operation: Jealousy: This is why Shampoo allowed Mikado to teach her how to skate despite him being Obviously Evil.
*Otaku: Claigin is a norse mythology otaku and is actually Cosplaying as Thor.
*Other Me Annoys Me: During Kitsune's Corner Kodachi admitted that while she is a Attention Whore, it's a balancing act. Expressing her regret at how many of her counterparts didn't quite balance it so well.
*Our Gods Are Greater: The reason the were so powerful was because of their divine authority. Gods Need Prayer Badly and when its strong enough their spiritual power grows to the extent that it allows them to change the rules of the world temporarily in regards to their aspects. It's the same sort of thing Soap and Shampoo do but on a much more massive scale. Averted in this day and age since the old religions have died and the modern ones are so fragmented.
*Out-of-Character Moment: Kasumi’s No-Holds-Barred Beatdown on Haruka.
*Out of Focus: Ranma goes through this in the later chapters.
*Outside the Box Tactic: When Shampoo pointed out the Logical Weakness of Kitsui’s People Puppets. She reminded Shampoo that they weren’t in the same position and forced her out of the arena.
*Our Demons Are Different: While a lot of things are called demons, in more official circles demons are in the category of species that came to be on another plane of existence. As such, while the term demon is often used, it would be more appropriate to refer to the, as extraplanar beings, but that is a mouthful so most don't use it.
**These other planes of existence vary dramatically, and generally speaking, the closer they are to Earth-like conditions, you get more human like demons.
**If you didn't know, you'd probably think Crystal’s original plane was Earth. Her species are not exactly a powerful bunch. In truth they’re actually weaker than humans.
*Our Dragons Are Different: While the dragons of most of our Earthly myths are of the original breeds, Celestials have augmented themselves so much as to be on a wholly different level.
*Our Ghosts Are Different: Kogane is a Cute Ghost Girl with Ghost Amnesia.
**Ghost don’t dream
**The Mind Is a Plaything of the Body of spirits as they are merely physical anchors, shaped conveniently to our own desires. They may look like their human bodies, but they are no more their spirit than their human bodies are. This is why Ghost end up looking like their original human form. They all linger in a familiar form, not because they have to, but simply because it is familiar.
**Everything has a spirit from plants, to benches, even the ocean. 
***Even our human bodies are not just occupied by our spirits, but many spirits. Yours is just the one in charge of all these bigger functions
*Our Liches Are Different: Devlin
*Pacifism Backfire: Due to a combination of Green-Eyed Monster and Motivated by Fear those who refused to join Cosmos Utopia eventually attacked it. Cosmos refused to allow her subjects to retaliate only defend, and while this was during a time when a good club was still considered the height of weapons technology. With every failure they grew both in cunning and numbers causing to problem to become progressively bigger.
* Pædo Hunt: Hinako’s condition has caused her personal life to be rather difficult. Most men who discover it are turned off, and the few that aren't... have quite the opposite reaction. Let's just say, those men she refers to the authorities.
*Papa Wolf: Needless to say Soun was furious upon finding out what happened to his daughter.
** Under no certain terms was Soun going to let Genma back out on rescuing Kasumi
*Paper Master: Takeshi Ayagami
:: Takeshi: Just as the pen is mightier than the sword, so is paper sharper than steel.
*Paralyzing Fear of Sexuality: Kotori lives in constant fear of being raped. While it started out as just being nervous about human contact. It evolved into violent paranoia after a cruel joke was played on her.
*Parental Abandonment: Copycat Ken went into a building to rescue someone and never came out.
**Frost was originally found at Jusenkyo and the guide figured she’d been abandoned there due to her condition and took her to the Amazons who adopted her into the tribe. However given her unnatural abilities she is starting to wonder if she might be Sedna.
*Parental Marriage Veto: After Frost and Tofu were Mistaken for Romance his mother did this since she didn’t have Hartman Hips.
*Parents as People: As usual Comb was sent out into China to seek knowledge and training. When she came back to the village, she was married, pregnant with Shampoo, and with a head full of a lot of new ideas. Naturally this caused her and Cologne not to exactly see eye to eye and they got into more than their fair share of arguments. Shampoo was essentially brought up and trained by Cologne. Naturally, Shampoo saw things Cologne's way. So, when she and her mother were together, Shampoo ended up as a proxy for Cologne's thinking. Unfortunately, Comb did not exactly take the high road in this. She butts heads with Shampoo so often that it has simply become pattern for the two.
*Past Life Memories: This is how Mamoru remembered Eris’ name
*Patricide: Garnet killed his father
*Pay Evil Unto Evil: The guide tried to convince Kasumi to just give Genma to the Amazons clearly blaming him for their current trouble.
**Ranma called Ukyo out on this. Telling her that she really can’t claim the high ground by destroying Kasumi’s life just because she destroyed hers.
**Thinking that Kasumi had perform a Marital Rape License on Shampoo Frost resorted to this Electric Torture.
**Though Ranko didn’t believe that Kasumi had raped Shampoo she told Frost that if Shampoo confirmed it she would help her kill Kasumi.
* The Peeping Tom: Nabiki has various pictures of Kasumi in a selection of candid shots, all in his male form, all somewhat more revealing then what you would find in a family album.
*Pelts of the Barbarian: The fact that Mint does this hit Ukyo’s Berserk Button.
*People Puppets: In addition to override her opponent’s nervous system in order to control their senses. Kitsui can also override their nervous system to control their muscles.
* Pervert Revenge Mode: Shampoo was fired from her job as a hostess due to this. As she was clearing dishes the customer grabbed her ass. Cue No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
*Phlebotinum Overload: When Lemon’s spell caused Shampoo to agree to date a random student who asked her out to see if she was really married to Kaneda, she was quickly bombarded with request. Unable to resolve all the competing requests, her mind simply shut down until they got Ranko to come and disrupt the magic.
*Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Front is only a little taller than Ms. Hinako’s default form.
*Please Dump Me: Haruka in order to avert a Unsettling Gender Reveal had Kasumi catch her kissing another girl then pulled a cruel Did You Actually Believe?.
*Plot Tailored to the Party: An in universe example. This is a consequence of entering someone’s dreamscape. Each person’s experience may be inconsistent with the others as the effect is tailored to the person. One may see a memory that another may not.
* Pocket Dimension: Any Archmage worth anything has at least a few pocket dimensions.
*Politeness Judo: Genma resorted to this to quash Ranma’s protest about the engagement. Ranma quickly realized the trap he had been moved into but there was nothing he could do. Anything he said would hurt Kasumi unless he just conceded the point.
*Politically Incorrect Hero: Thinking that Nabiki might be a lesbian Yotogi expressed a desire to go and vomit.
*Poor Communication Kills: Because Haruka and Michiru don’t go to the Senshi meetings there weren’t even aware that Makoto had been transferred let alone who her teacher was. This led quite a mess when invited her friends to eat at the San Cheng Huang.
** As a joke she decided not to inform her friends that the gorgeous guy at the restaurant was Kasumi. Ultimately this led to Haruka thinking that Kasumi was flirting with Michiru and ended up receiving a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown as a result.
**Frost refused to answer when Kasumi asked her why she was so angry even casting a spell to turn her into The Speechless.
** Because Ranma didn’t know about the Musk law concerning Jusenkyo he had no reason to fight Eyebright’s truth spell when asked about Herb’s curse.
*Positive Friend Influence: Ryoga’s past association with Kasumi has done wonders for him. No longer does he experience enormous bouts of depression, instead he has been taught how to find the good parts of his life. His anger too has been trimmed back to a manageable level. Even his lack of direction is modestly lessened, although that is simply a matter of sticking around Shirokuro more, who does not let him get lost.
**However, one thing that still remains is his shyness.
*Post-Victory Collapse: Ranko and Chu Li after defeating Shadow Lady.
* Power At a Price: Zig-zagged. Spiritual awakening means that you are dying. Spirits are curious things. No matter how much you resist or how long, eventually curiosity wins out and spirit wants to leave. Thing is what it is leaving is your physical body. It's the price to pay for your spirit being awoken. Most importantly, the more you stretch your spirit power out, the quicker the process. However by contrast it also grants the Longevity Treatment So Pu despite appearing to be around her mid forties is actually 800 years old and fully expects to live several hundred more years.
*Power Copying: Herb has been integrating everyone’s techniques into his repertoire. This is in contrast with Ranma’s combination Adaptive Ability and Combat Pragmatist allowed the two to fight to a draw.
*Power Degeneration: Prolonged use of the Burning Soul has damaged Ukyo’s Energy Circulatory System causing it to leak. The leak is releasing small amounts of her Ki uncontrolled into her body which reacts to this by shaking.
**This also happens to magus’ who push themselves too hard.
*Power Floats: Bison naturally.
*Power Incontinence: Frost is introduced with this.
** Usagi suddenly developed the ability to teleport and ended up in America with no idea how to get back.
*Power Nullifier: Lemon has a necklace she can put on people to protect them from her supernatural beauty. 
**The Illuminati has Power Crystal’s that when configured correctly can completely neutralize magics and Ki use. Effectively, once caught in their pattern, even the strongest of individuals is rendered little more than an ordinary human.
** Rose has a room key that contains a special material that makes you immune to the effect of the stones.
* The Power of Hate: Ken used this to help him use the Burning Soul which he hadn’t mastered yet.
* The Power of Love: Usagi argues this against the jaded Frost.
*Power Parasite: The leader of the monster traffickers is a youma
*Power Perversion Potential: Kasumi never thought about the fact that she was bullet proof thanks to her spiritual training.
*Power-Up Food: Ukyo learned how to create these.
*Power-Upgrading Deformation: becoming an Ascended Senshi can cause this if Chaos and Orcus is anything to go by.
*Powers via Possession: Kogane possessing Shampoo improved her Japanese.
**When Azusa refused to tell her about her match against Kitsui Shampoo had Kogane to repeatedly possess the two so that she could gain her memories of it.
*Powers Do the Fighting: Shadow Moon’s Light'Em Up
* Pragmatic Villainy: Shadowloo has tied to various law enforcement agencies both to keep them away from them, but also to sick them on their rivals. Its revealed they played at least a part in starting the Sukeban Deka project.
** Since the Organization have no way of know who killed the rouge youma they won't send good operatives into such an unknown situation out of petty revenge.
*** Sorora warned that they would send more low level attacks.
*Pressure Point: Dr Tofu isn’t skilled enough at Ki Manipulation to fix Ukyo’s Power Degeneration
**Ranma develop a technique that attacks a person’s ki flow.
*Properly Paranoid: Kasumi has a habit of examining every one as a potential foe.
*Psycho Lesbian: Kitsui is an heroic example. She is a Lovable Sex Maniac with a penchant for virgins who is constantly attempting to seduce, other women she finds attractive.
*Psycho Serum: Shadaloo has injections that send people into a blind rage and use it to force Kasumi to use the Dark Hado. 
**Doll
*Punch a Wall: Haruka did this after her Please Dump Me attempt on Kasumi worked.
*Puppet King: So Pu and Eyebright plan on setting Kasumi up as this after dethroning Garnet.
*Pyrrhic Victory: Ukyo was quite happy to learn that she had been transferred into a wolf and not a mutt.
**While Ken ended up being Brought Down to Normal, which will inevitably take a toll on her. It has long been her goal to destroy the hunters headquarters.
* Rage Breaking Point: Kasumi has reached her at the beginning of the story tired of Genma Taking Advantage of Generosity.
* Rank Up: Kasumi became a homeroom teacher after only a week after incident reports dropped by more than 80%.
*Rant-Inducing Slight: Usagi, Minako, and Ami’s teacher had been having a bad week. Her car got stolen, which lead to a break in at her house since she had left her keys in the car. Plus, while being forced to walk home she got caught in a rain shower, and caught the flu. On top of that, she lost her boyfriend. So when Ami spoke up on the later two behalf when they were transferred to Kasumi’s class she got chewed out before she had a chance to finish her first sentence.
*Reality Ensues: Genma and Soun were hoping to invoke Childhood Friend Romance by raising Ranma and Akane together. However by essentially raising them as Not Blood Siblings has caused them to see each other as Like Brother and Sister|exactly that.
::Kasumi: Don't you like him?
::
:: Akane: Oh, I like him fine. He's a bit thoughtless sometimes but that's not so bad. It's just that I... I... It just doesn't seem right.
**A human wouldn't know how to properly take care of herself as a dog. Ukyo would need to have shots for rabies, distemper and whatever other conditions the vet felt were necessary to guard against.
**Hiro’s uncle’s restaurant needs some refurbishing and the it’s in neighborhood isn't the greatest. The best offer he get’s is from someone who wants to buy up the whole area and put up an industrial park. While he had a vision of seeing the old place open and running again, that isn’t likely.
**While a male defeating an Amazon means she must marry them. They are not fools. The Amazon’s have a Fidelity Test that involves Slipping a Mickey to the groom during the wedding ceremony.
**Naturally Kodachi was angry at Akane for not telling her that Kanada and Kasumi were the same person.
**Ranma was considered the best fighter in Furinkan High School. Once Kasumi returned bringing with her; her various friends and rivals Ranma became Overshadowed by Awesome. He doesn’t really have anyone at his level to challenge him and as a result he’s started to become less and less motivated.
**There was no way Kasumi at her present level of strength and skill could defeat Lime and Mint so resorted to Combat Pragmatist.
**Lemon isn’t a fighter so couldn’t train Ukyo in anything.
**Cologne recognized the Amazonian techniques used in Ranko’s style.
** This is why Ranko and Kasumi offered to exchange techniques. While they were both taught by Genma the specifics of their training was affected by their genders.
**Upon learning that Ukyo was now the head wife Lemon set about trying to defeat her making Lemon the head wife, forcing Herb to marry her to marry Kasumi. She could deal with any disagreements from Kasumi or Shampoo using her more advanced powers of influence, leaving the only stumbling block being defeating Ukyo.
***While it was easy enough to lull Ukyo into a false sense of security, defeating her was quite a different story.
**Inducing the Nekoken doesn’t work in trying to get Kasumi to activate the Dark Hado as the two Super-Powered Evil Side’s use completely different emotions.
**Since Usagi disappeared the same day they acquired Sailor Moon it was obvious to the Doctor who she was. After that it was just a matter of cross referencing her friends and acquaintances. While they aren’t aware of the specifics they do know the Senshi’s true identities.
**Just because Usagi and Kasumi were aware they were in an illusion didn’t mean they could get out of it.
**After unleashing the Heaven’s Ascension Kasumi was completely spent both physically and mentally if Sorora hadn’t led Haruka to her she would have died.
**Rippa has no idea who Shampoo is and has no reason to accept her challenge on Mikado’s behalf. If it wasn’t for Ranma showing up she would have hit a dead end.
**Ranma had to work out a bit of rust when he restarted his training in Martial Arts Dance.
**This was Derekloffin’s explanation for when it came Time to Unlock More True Potential. While the reveal that he was a Dance Battler transformed him into a Memetic Badass especially after the Tenjho Tenge Shout-Out. Ranma only had a week to train, and anything he would have historically should have appeared logically by now, so what he does go with has be something new. More importantly, it has to be something he can develop in the short term but utilize in the long term to grow better in his own way.
**Since Rippa is gay the Kitsune’s enchantments have little effect on him.
**While Jasmine hates her son for killing his father, he’s still family. So while she’s willing to aid the Fox clan and the Amazon’s in their cue she will not harm him.
**The fact that Kasumi can tank Ukyo’s Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken means that she is bullet proof as they are often subsonic, and of far lower mass.
** Chi and magic enhancement both can completely counter chi armor's protective properties. So it is quite elementary for users of such weapons to be just as lethal to you despite such. Naturally, it is not something you want to test in the heat of battle, so it is always best to assume every bullet is potentially lethal.
**Just because Kasumi was able to overcome her fears in order to rescue Shampoo, doesn’t mean she can ultimately make a difference. With her as scared as she is, she can only act defensively leaving her and the neko personality in a stalemate.
* Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Eyebright is over 2000 years old. Making him the only male Kitsune.
*Reasonable Authority Figure: After getting over his initial shock the Vice Principle took Kasumi’s curse as well as the fact she was currently in a Shapeshifter Mode Lock in stride.
**Cologne let Saki take point in the rescue of Kasumi and Shampoo because she both realized that Saki had more authority and knowledge of Shadowloo than she did. As well as knew that the situation was serious enough to avoid unnecessary power struggles.
**Miyuki’s adopted father wasn’t adverse to there being a connection between her and Saki. Sadly he died in an accident and her adopted grandfather is another story entirely.
*Recessive Super Genes: The Gorgon curse only affects those of female birth. So while Medusa herself gave birth to a male human. It was only later when he had a daughter that it was learned that Medusa's clan lived on.
*Recursive Adaptation: Jim Bader's story, A Very Scary Thought (aka Nabiki 1/2), is at least modestly related to this one, and the author borrowed a little piece from that story in this regard.*Required Secondary Powers: Just because Artemis is a Talking Animal doesn’t mean he Speaks Fluent Animal which is why he was so surprised when C-Chan understood him.
* Rescue Romance: Kodachi later fell in love with Ryoga after he shielded her from Hinako.
**Averted Kasumi beat up the guys assaulting her before Haruka could do anything.
**Averted Nabiki rescued herself Tsubasa just happened to be there. It was clear from his deflated look that he wanted to look cool in front of Nabiki.
*Restricted Rescue Operation: The Senshi ran into this while dealing with Shadow Moon. While Sailor Moon would be able to purify the Nanomachines the rest of the Senshi don’t have the power to get rid of them without seriously hurting or even killing her.
*Retcon: Shampoo's real name was changed to Shan Pu from Xian Pu, due to be more grammically correct.
**Kin Tofu was corrected to Kin Ono. Due to the author mixing up Tofu's first and last names originally which caused this error.
**Corrected various contradictions Kasumi made, mostly in reference to her previous relationships which originally omitted Haruka because the Haruka relationship hadn't been thought up at the time.
**Kuno rejected the name Blue Thunder, but then started reusing it. Word of God Kuno was going to keep to this rejection, not ignore it, but some slipped through and have now been removed.
**Some scene switching in the intro chapter for Herb and company was done to better emphasis the time that past while looking for the kettle. This is basically a reordering of the scenes with nothing major added.
***Also with Herb and company, corrected various inaccuracies in description and such for related elements (Lime and Mint's look, Lime not using a sword, the ladle having an inbuilt tracking mechanism, etc).
**A reference Herb makes to his dragon ancestors was altered. He basically says the same thing but notes that his knowledge of history is iffy, and some of the tales are contradictory and therefore untrustworthy.
**A scene with Kodachi at the Kuno estate in Frost's intro chapter was added. This was simply to make her, Kuno and Ranma's appearance at the mountain later not seem so sudden.
**It was made more clear that C-chan was the cat that scared Kasumi at Jusenkyo which resulted in Ukyo's curse. Also made clear was that C-chan is the result of two curses, not a single mixed one.
**The conditions of C-chan's order not to reveal her identity was corrected. It was incompatible with later scenes where Cologne calls C-chan Mousse and she acknowledges this.
*The Reveal: Frost has a Shuanshontsūnīchuan and is hiding it from everyone. 
**It turns out that Mousse was the one who set up the date between Akane and Tofu not Kodachi.
**Bison isn’t possessing Rose, Rose is just Brainwashed and Crazy corrupted by vile nature of Psycho Power.
**Copycat Ken is actually part Kitsune. She’s trained for years to never revert to her true female form, even if knocked out, as it would endanger her true identity.
**The leader of the monster traffickers is a rouge dark kingdom youma
**Jasmine’s original name is Morgan Le Faye
*Revenge Myopia: Ukyo’s vendetta against Kasumi is the result of her father’s psychological abuse of her. By constantly holding Kasumi up as some unobtainable goal that she could never achieve Ukyo was forced down the one avenue left to her, find Kasumi and defeat her.
**after Guinevere outed Morgan Le Faye for her Really Gets Around antics she took out her anger on the whole round table.
*Reverse Psychology: Shampoo used this to convince Herb to be a waitress.
*Rewarding Inactivity: This is the only way to cure Ukyo’s Power Degeneration. Tofu recommended that for a month she not fight or use her Ki at all.
*Right for the Wrong Reasons: When Ranma told her about the dog he found she immediately realized that was Ukyo. However Kasumi was still going under the assumption that the dog she had found earlier was Ukyo as well.
*Right Under Their Noses: The Fox Clan of the Musk are actually Kitsune.
* Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Herb after Frost destroyed the Kaisuifu.
* Romantic Wingman: Kitsui gave Ranko tips on how to start dating Akane.
*Running Away to Cry: Shampoo did this after Rose’s defeat ashamed that she had effectively become the Designated Victim.
*Sacrificed Basic Skill for Awesome Training: Herb has a pretty diverse education. Politics, economics, military strategy, martial arts, and leadership was a good lot of it. However those kinds of skills are not very practical for getting a regular job.
**Kasumi never tried soda pop.
*Sadly Mythtaken: An in universe example it seems that Merlin put in place some magic to maintain the legend of Arthur. Problem is, the spell is very weak on maintaining the details so it allows a lot of... Artistic License. Bits and pieces are true, but no particular accounting of the events is correct.
::Jasmine: No, Mordred is not my son. No, I didn't sleep with Arthur. No, Mordred isn't even Arthur's son, he just treated him like one.
:: Kitsune: Uh... right... okay. So, was like anything right?
::Jasmine: Well, Arthur existed. 
*Samus Is a Girl: Frost was shocked to learn that Prince Herb was female.
** Ken is a kitsune
*The Scapegoat: When in doubt Ukyo blames Kasumi.
**Haruka attacked Kasumi after the pill wore off in an attempt to somehow make up for the extreme embarrassment she was feeling, having kissed a boy in such a way right in front of Michiru.
*Scare 'Em Straight: Saki did this Tsubasa to get him to stop dressing like a Yakuza.
*Schedule Fanatic: While Jasmine kept a tight ship she is not one to maintain any kind of enforced schedule. It was Frost's own enforced regiment that made her training with the Grand Magus so annoying. If she wasn't readying for a duel that day, she was plotting up new strategies and testing them out, and what little free time that was left to her was spent on her various other tasks which honestly had become more of a pleasant distraction from the repeated dismal failures.
* Schmuck Bait: Shampoo sunbathing to lure out Happosai. 
**Toma was far to confident in his battle against Ranko especially since he forwent the use of his sword putting him at an even greater disadvantage.
*Schrödinger's Canon: At this point Word of God hasn’t decided weather or not Gargoyles is part of the Massive Multiplayer Crossover or merely being used for Shout-Out’s
**Fate/stay night is revealed to be a Show Within a Show. However it was done within Kitsune’s Cornor which while an end credit does give canon information and Morgan said that Arthia did look familiar.
*Screw Destiny: Discussed in universe after finding out about their Kid From the Future Luna doesn’t really know how to act around Artemis, because unlike Usagi she doesn’t like the idea of having no choice of who she’s going to be with.
*Screw the Rules, I Make Them: Averted Cologne may be the elder council leader, but she is as bound to the law as anyone else. She cannot simply change the laws to suit her own interests.
*Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Genma attempted this when Cologne and Shampoo arrived but Nodoka caught him before he could get to the door.
** Hiro refused to take part in Kocho’s antics and went home.
*The Secret of Long Pork Pies: Played with a little after receiving her cursed a man captured Ukyo and attempted to kill her so he could cook her in a Korean entrée. Luckily she escaped.
*Secret Test of Character: The Amazon who Shampoo defeated to win the tournament pretended that she would attack Shampoo in revenge to see if Kasumi wopuld protect her.
*Secretly Wealthy: Played with its less that Pierre hides his wealth and more he just doesn’t broadcast it. He opened his small shop because he’s put off by the snobs at his main store.
*Seduction-Proof Marriage: Downplayed but Kasumi was able to at least partially fight off Lemon’s supernatural beauty by thinking of Shampoo allowing her to run away.
*I See Dead People: Shampoo developed this ability after the Hotel La Bac arc. Makoto initially though she was hallucinated and that it was a delayed affect of the poison she was injected with.
*Selective Obliviousness: Invoked it’s clear that Ranma started to put two and two together the moment he saw Ukyo’s hair, and the only reason he hasn’t poured a kettle over Ryouko’s head is he’s not yet ready to confront the Awful Truth.
*Self-Deprecation: In her fight against Kitsui Shampoo went into a battle that she wasn't used to dealing with and was able to counter everything thrown at her. However she still felt that she didn’t do a good job.
*Self-Destruct Mechanism: Hotel La Bac has one.
*Self-Serving Memory: When Mousse told Kasumi about the love of his life he forgot to mention that he was a Dogged Nice Guy.
**Frost told Ukyo that the Nyanichiczu kicked the Musk out when in fact they are the result coup that happened due to the men being treated as little more then slaves.
**Played with as they were driven into exile when they rebelled.
**Averted while he did it in his usual Playing the Victim Card way Mousse as Selene told Akane what he did to make Frost so angry. As Akane stated the fact he was playing up his cruelty to impress his friend and didn’t really mean it doesn’t make what he did any less cruel.
** Played straight when he told Akane that he and Shampoo had a Childhood Marriage Promise and the only reason that Shampoo hates him is because Cologne soured her against him.
***This is averted as well as it is more of a case of Comically Missing the Point. Shampoo was 3 years old and had no idea what Mousse was talking about when he asked her to marry him. The next day she refused when Cologne explained it to her. Mousse himself only did it because he took his mother talking out loud about the benefits of him one day marrying Shampoo literally.
*Serious Business: After Mikado’s Teeth Flying incident the entire arena had a Moment of Silence.
*Sex God: This is the Power Perversion Potential of the Fox Clan being as Inhumanly Beautiful Race. Lemon stated that when someone finally tastes her body it will be like a drug. An addiction that is all consuming to the point where you'll do anything for her.
* Sex Is Good: In moderation at least according to Kitsui, who believes she strikes a good balance.
*Skewed Priorities: Kasumi chastised herself for being more worried about waking her family up then the fact that Ukyo was trying to kill her.
*Shaggy Dog Story: Artemis finally swallowed his pride and called Minako for help. As he was waiting for her to answer C-chan came back and rescued him. Just as he was thanking her for saving him from such embarrassment Minako, Usagi and Luna showed up.
*Shameless Fanservice Girl: Shampoo and Herb remained defiant when Peach ripped everyone’s cloths off.
*Shapeshifting Heals Wounds: A Jusenkyo curse can't handle stuff that isn't there in both forms. It sort of short-circuits. For example if Ukyo damaged her tail as a wolf, then transformed to human and back it would be perfectly fine. Good as new in fact. That's because the curse doesn't know what to do with the extra bit.
** Unfortunately this can lead to Harmful Healing. When you change genders that's a big problem. Any unborn children are just an extra bit the curse doesn't know what to do with, so it just ignores it, and when you transform back it restores the original pattern, not the pregnant pattern. Instant abortion.
*Ship Sinking: Shampoo is this to Kasumi’s various suitors. Mousse never listens, Kuno is too full of himself. Ranma doesn’t treat Kasumi with the respect Shampoo thinks she deserves, and, Herb is just a jerk.
:: Kasumi: What about... Ryoga?
:: Shampoo: How Shampoo love man who always get lost? 
**Averted as she was willing to give them a chance
**Played straight with Mousse he doesn’t have a chance
*Shock and Awe: Frost’s Fulmenos Venite spell.
*Should Have Thought of That Before X: Cologne after informing Shampoo that the Amazon pill only reaches full effectiveness after one month.
::Shampoo: A month! I want to be with Kasumi now!
:: Cologne: Then you should have thought of this a month ago.
*Shout-Out: The Burning Soul is one to Dragon Ball being an obvious reference to the Kaio-ken.
**While Shadow and Shadow Lady are clones in this universe Shadow Moon is a Brainwashed and Crazy Sailor Moon just like the original characters. They even placed a Restraining Bolt by way of Lotus Eater Machine.
**There are a lot of ones to Gargoyles from La Bac being Cabal spelled backwards, Kitsune’s conspiracy of The Illuminati Shadowloo war, and finally the cloning accelerant used to create Shadow and Shadow Lady were stolen from Gen-U-Tech.
**Kitsui’s technique is basically the Shadow Imitation Jutsu.
**The advice Kitsui gave Shampoo when she attempted to use Mind Over Matter again was a quote from Ghost (film).
**Cologne’s Dual Age Modes technique shares many similarities with the Natsume-Style Form Refinement
**The origins of the Musk Dragon Clan shares a lot in common with Fairy Tail’s Dragon Slayer Magic.
**Siren’s Grand Magus is named Howl. While he has the same name as the one from Howl's Moving Castle (novel) and Siren suspects the it was inspired by him, but they're quite different when you actually meet him.
::Siren: Castle doesn't walk though, so disappointing, just teleports.
* Show Within a Show: Kitsune was playing Fate/stay night as she was interviewing Morgan, pissing her off at yet another legend.
*Silent Treatment: Kodachi did this to Akane after learning the truth.
*Sink or Swim Mentor: There is the school of thought that it is best to let the student analyze and adapt themselves, rather than simply giving them all the solutions, and the Amazons adhere to this method. Unfortunately the flaw in this method is that once the student hits a wall they’re stuck as they simply won’t know what to do.
**Shampoo ran into this when she was trying to master the Dragon Fang Fist. She was having a fundamental problem with her chi control. There was little purpose in making her guess at solutions to such a thing, especially when there is a much better way to learn it.
* Sins of Our Fathers: Jasmine was initially of the mind to detest Herb, but it is ultimately averted once she came to see that her assessment of Like Father, Like Son was premature.
*Skewed Priorities: Shampoo would rather go talk to Azusa to find out what she could about how Kitsui fought then find out more about the ghost who possessed her or why I See Dead People applies to her.
**When Kogane introduced herself to Herb he was shock about how Shampoo could be so relaxed about it. She just wanted his advice on how to fight Kitsui.
*Slasher Smile: The smile never left the Inquisitor’s face as she slaughtered the old section 7 leader and his men.
*Sleep-Mode Size: Cologne’s Miniature Senior Citizens is this. her true form is somewhere in the middle of this and her younger form.
*Smug Smiler: Throughout their battle Kitsui continued to smile.
*Snake People: Grenda is a Gorgon
*So Beautiful It's a Curse: Lemon
*The So-Called Coward: Shampoo called Rippa a coward for refusing her challenge on Mikado’s behalf. He just took it in stride. 
**He even went so far as to go Badass Pacifist when she decided to force the issue. Teeling her flat out that even if she beat him up he wouldn’t change my deal with Mikado
*So Last Season: This was Kitsune’s reaction to Gosunkugi panicking upon meeting Kogane for the first time. 
**She felt the same way about magic.
**While Frost was able to fix Usagi’s suit since pretty much all of its offensive functions require the use of the silver crystal she has to go back to moon tiara magic.
*Some Kind of Force Field: The boulder that covers Ukyo’s Family Shrine has this as discovered when she punched it in frustration.
*Something Only They Would Say: Shampoo and Kasumi asked Nodoka to give them some questions to ask Mind-Kimiko to determine if she had memories of the original. They planed on giving her answers later to eliminate mind reading.
*Something We Forgot: Kasumi was so tired from the days events that she forgot that Nabiki was still affected by the day pill.
*Space Master: Kitsune and various other high level mages are able to create Pocket Dimensions. Peach and Eyebright are shown to be able to create dimensions where space itself loops.
*Spanner in the Works: The reason the pounds in Nerima use locks instead of a simple lift latch is because of Azusa.
**The old lady who keeps splashing her sidewalk. If she hadn’t splashed Genma Lime and Mint wouldn’t have recognized him as the panda that stole their food, Kasumi wouldn’t have needed to rescue him, they wouldn’t have recognized her, and wouldn’t of lost the Chiisuiton.
**Of all of Kasumi's would be husbands, Kuno is the one Shampoo found the most irritating. Yet he finally built up the courage to ask Shampoo out after she had been enticed to agree to go out with anyone who asked her.
*Spell My Name with an "S": The Joketsuzoku have Perfume’s in the village one referred to as Par Phume the other Pur Fum.
*Split Personality: In addition to Neko-Kasumi Kasumi has another one named Ted. He seems to come out during emotionally stressful moments of her life such as after the Nekoken and the Haruka incident.
* Split Personality Takeover: Ted in chapter 58 
**There was also a possibility if they messed up while dream walking Kasumi’s other personalities could merge and gain enough strength to become the dominant personality.
*Spotting the Thread: The Inners noticed that something was off about Usagi.
* Squick: The image Frost conjured up in her head after Siren called Cologne her dearest.
*Squishy Wizard: Despite having some training Frost is this.
*Sssssnaketalk: Sissithississ
**Grenda a Gorgon talks like this as well.
*Stalker Without a Crush: Saki has become Kitsune’s new obsession
*Stating the Simple Solution: Frost never heard of sun block.
** Ukyo can take medicine to help with the uncontrollable shakes caused by her Power Degeneration. Sadly they do nothing for the cause just the symptoms.
**Sailor Uranus opted to avert Sailor Venus’ initial "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight plan, and instead just knock Shadow Moon out and deal with it later under more controlled circumstances.
**During Kitsune's Corner she asked Ranma right out why she didn’t consider getting surgery, but she was just to weirded out by it.
**Knowing that Shampoo wasn’t yet strong enough to astral project to China So Pu told her to pick up a phone if she needed to talk to her.
**When Siren gave Frost an amulet with a light blocking spell that would keep her from burning. Frost told her that she could have just given her sunblock. Averted Siren mentioned that given the fact they live in the middle of nowhere. Getting a steady supply of the stuff, at the proper potency while also being safe was a total nightmare.
::Siren: Your mother tried, I tried, Cologne even tried. Best any of us could get was some real sketchy stuff I wouldn't trust using for any length of time.
*Statuesque Stunner: Kanada is taller then his father
*Stepford Smiler: zigged-zagged as it was shown while she was in a Lotus Eater Machine, but Kasumi’s memory showed that just weeks after her mother’s funeral Kasumi would cheerfully go about any choir assigned to her, apparently pleased and happy. This made Nodoka so nervous she asked Genma to talk to her after she tried to.
**While Herb may appear his usual calm and controlled self under the surface his emotions were a storm which only his well trained and advanced dragon kin mind could keep in check.
*The Stinger: In addition to the usual next chapter teasers chapter 34 introduced Kitsune's Corner! An All There in the Manual where the author interviews his Original Character’s
*Stone Wall: Kitsui’s style is exclusively defensive in nature.
* Stopped Caring: This was Ranma’s reaction to finding out that the engagement had been switched to Kasumi. Having long since grown tired of fighting his engagement with Akane he didn’t bother to argue.
*Straw Hypocrite: Just as Derek was admonishing renegades for toying with timestreams that were perfectly fine. He accepted a bet with Serena that set this universe in motion.
**To be fair it seems the timestream had already undergone an Apocalypse How scenario and he was just fixing it when Serene gave him the idea to do this instead.
*String Theory: Kitsune’s great board of conspiracy aptly named the board. It shows the connection between all the major players in the worldwide conspiracy of control.
*Strong Family Resemblance: Garnet is described as a older looking Herb. Only close inspection would make one see the differences, mostly down to the coloring of the hair and their choice in attire.
*Stronger with Age: Even Kitsunes learn as they age, growing out a full tail every hundred years. This is how Jasmine knew the Kitsune who placed the spell was very young as it was very simplistic, and to enchant someone, that tail must bare the power of enchantment.
*Stunned Silence: Nabiki when Tsubasa showed up for their date dressed as a Yakuza.
**Frost upon learning about Shampoo’s husband.
**Ukyo’s reaction to not changing back to her true form.
** Michiru when Haruka kissed Kasumi-kun.
*Stupid Sexy Flanders: This is Nabiki’s reaction to her brother
*Sucky School: The situation as Furikan was really out of control before Kasumi’s arrival. The vice-principle was desperate for something to keep things running smoothly.
*Sufficiently Analyzed Magic: Herb wasn’t dumb enough to try and use himself as a guinea pig to see if the Togenkyo could cure his curse. Instead he analyzed it and jusenkyo’s potential interactions the result being that although the magics are similar, the water does not override Jusenkyo's.
*Summon Magic: Cologne did this when she called all of Kasumi’s romantic suitors together only for Ryoga to get lost.
*Super Empowering: Awakening of the spirit takes a great deal of time, or contact with a much larger spirit to do this. No amount of training will do it
*Super Serum: The Potion Devlin gave everyone in addition to protecting the drinker from the Kitsune’s simpler magics, including importantly their enchanting ability. It also has a few extra bonuses: General physical boosts and a spell to allow you to harm shapeshifters so at least they won't be able to shrug off your attacks for the duration.
*Super Speed: At her maximum, in concert with her burning soul Ukyo can approach ten times the speed of sound with the Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken.
*Supernatural Fear Inducer: Frost accidentally hit Shampoo with this.
*Supernatural Martial Arts: Martial Arts Dance
*Supernatural Sensitivity: Cologne is able to sense the Senshi magic within Makoto.
*Supernaturally Delicious and Nutritious: A secret technique of the Kounji School involves imbuing their aura into the food. Ukyo’s great grandfather left a golden okonomiyaki at the Manpukuji temple its aura has maintained its freshness for over a hundred years.
* Super-Powered Evil Side: Shadow Moon
*Superpowerful Genetics: Copycat Ken is a descendant from Kitsunes’
* Sword and Sorcerer: The problem that limited ability in the martial arts presented was that Frost always felt inferior. Her magic had its points, but usually without a fighter to protect a magus while they did their thing, the magus was toast.
*Synchronization: This is how the majority of the techniques of Martial Arts Dance work. Specifically Kitsui’s.
*Take a Third Option: This is how Ukyo got into her Family’s Shrine.
:: Ukyo: It was simple enough. I may not be able to move the rock, but there's no protection on the cliff. The rock was just a distraction. You're not meant to move it. 
**A villainous example while Can't Kill You - Still Need You applies to Kasumi it doesn’t apply to Shampoo.
**To get out of Eyebright’s no win situation Kasumi-kun took Herb as his wife. This makes Herb essentially an Amazon so that any attack on her is thus an attack on them.
**During Frost’s duels with Jasmine the former could use any magic she knew, while the later was restricted to circle 7 or less. Unfortunately Jasmine is a Combat Pragmatist who rigged the magical battlefield to give her every possible advantage. Frost couldn’t figure out how to defeat her so just blew up the ring.
::Siren: How did you live through it then?
::Frost: I didn't. Hey, the rules said I had to defeat her, not survive!
* Taking the Heat: Genma ended up being the one who informed Soun about Kasumi and Shampoo’s Relationship Upgrade.
**While Guinevere had an affair it wasn’t with Lancelot. He took the blame though and he did love her.
* The Talk: Nodoka gave this to Kasumi after finding her in a Not What It Looks Like situation with Ranma, believing that Genma wasn’t adequate enough in raising her.
*Talking Animal: Mousse gained the ability to talk once he became Frost’s familiar.
*Talking to Themselves: Frost cast a spell to keep track on Kasumi as a precaution. Of course, no one but her could hear it, so it made for a peculiar sight.
*Tall Poppy Syndrome: Shampoo has no drive in her training because of this.
**As the former village champion Soon Li told her being the best is not really a good thing. Some resent you. Others avoid you, out of fear. Others try to use you. Still others think too much of you, and are Driven by Envy.
** However Kasumi quickly deconstructed this. It is not being the best that causes problems, but wanting to be the best at all costs, to gain respect.
*The Tape Knew You Would Say That A speaking stone is a magical recording that has a limited range of interaction, but you can speak to it pretty naturally usually. just don’t expect it to know everything the original would though.
**It comes across more as a Living Memory since it remembers previous conversations.
*Teacher-Student Romance: Kasumi is Ranma’s homeroom supervisor.
** Discussed in universe by the vice principle who regularly has to lecture new young male teachers about doing this.
*The Tease: Kitsui enjoys flirting even while training Shampoo she flirted with Ranko.
*Teleportation: Usagi suddenly developed this ability
*Teleport Spam: Bison-Rose used this after being purged from Kasumi.
*Tempting Fate: Played with, after visiting the dorms Makoto expressed how glad she was that she got to stay at San Cheng Huang, as being stuck under the same roof with the dorm residence would be enough to drive one insane. Just as she was leaving Usagi, Minako and Ami arrived informing her that they were the new students people had been talking about.
* That Came Out Wrong: Zigzagged when Frost asked why Toma had chosen Akane Ranma replied that he was weird and like assertive woman. While initially angry Ranma elaborated that it was only after she slapped him that he only had eyes for her.
*Their First Time: Kasumi and Shampoo after Shampoo’s match against the Buyou twins.
*There Are Two Kinds of People in the World: There is basically two types of people in Kasumi’s class, those who were physical trouble makers, and those who had more interesting methods.
*There Was a Door: When an irate Ukyo tossed C-chan into Kasumi’s hands after tossing the cat into the air she ran as hard as she could. The fact that Ukyo and a wall was in her way didn't matter.
*This Looks Like a Job For Aquaman: Izou Horagashi was able to use the true power of Indiscriminate Martial Arts Graffiti to overcome Shadow’s invisibility. Only to be immediately knocked out.
:: Ranma: Well, at least we can see him now.
*Time Crash: When Usagi was kidnapped by Shadowloo time entered a strong flux causing Setsuna to be flung out of the Space Time Door.
*Time Skip: there is one between Chapter 63 and 64. 
** According to Word of God the main issue was nothing in the anime really is all that interesting for the crew here. A good chunk circumstances have changed enough to not to allow to occur, and the majority is just rather uninteresting activities. What little would be interesting in theory is actually now pretty weak by AST standards and would be more a minor nuisance to them. That and the need to give character some time to realistically process and improve and thus the skip to basically the end of the anime.
*Time to Unlock More True Potential: Lemon offered to train Ukyo so that she would be strong enough to defeat Kasumi. Or more specifically she’d get Sissithississ to do it. 
**She ended up learning her family’s Dangerous Forbidden Technique.
**Ranma and Shampoo challenged the Buyou twins to a fight for a chance to be trained in Martial Arts Dance.
*Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Tsubasa has to look up to meet Nabiki’s eye.
*Tomboy Angst: Being feminine was impractical for Kasumi since Genma Sacrificed Basic Skill for Awesome Training. Unfortunately her curse only makes it worse.
* Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Kasumi is this due to being raised by Genma. Being a Yamato Nadeshiko just isn’t practical while on the road. First she had given up the dresses she had adored. Whatever they could not carry on their backs they did without. That meant few changes of clothing and going days or weeks without a bath. Then came her hair. Save her ponytail, one of the precious few hold-overs she had, it was basically a boy's cut, short and simple. It continued slowly, year over year, changing her further, losing more and more of the qualities she associated with her mother.
**That didn't even consider what she had missed learning altogether. Under Genma's care Kasumi was basically on her own when it came to learning how a woman should act. Many things you'd associate with women, like sewing or make-up, she simply never bothered with. By the time they reached Jusenkyo she was living as a boy in everything except name.
**The curse had just been the final nail in the coffin of the little girl she once was.
*Too Desperate to Be Picky: As much as Nabiki dislikes helping with the cooking it beats the alternative.
*Took a Level In Kindness: Cologne after Shampoo and Kasumi’s Relationship Upgrade.
*Trademark Favorite Food: Ice cream for Hinako.
*Training From Hell: As stated by Sissithississ training for the Burning Soul is nothing short of Cold-Blooded Torture as your essentially setting youself on fire.
*Translator Microbes: The text is italicized when the characters are speaking Chinese.
* Tranquil Fury: After being rescued from Azusa Ryouko was stuck in what could best be described as a mixture of complete catatonic shock and over boiling fury.
*Traumatic Haircut: The next time Azusa is seen her hair was shorter then Akane’s, and far more simple in style. The conclusion wasn't difficult given that Azusa had messed with Ukyo's hair. 
**In Amazon village messing with a warriors hair was a high insult, and not wise unless you drastically overpowered your victim. In fact, there were many villagers that believed that when Shampoo had scarred Par Phume she had in fact been merciful. Shampoo does not share that opinion.
*Trickster God: Kinmoku Myth describes Eris as a rampant mischief maker who always appeared to know just the right threads to pull to unravel a situation. The odd thing was she was also the one that taught the Starlights to use their senshi powers, and even though she caused a lot of trouble, most often the legends depicted her simply revealing trouble that was already brewing under the surface.
*Trojan Horse: Peach snuck in a very small portal, probably no bigger than a fly, to a pocket dimension when she came to check on Lemon. After she left, one of her cohorts snuck in using it, then snuck it onto Herb. So no matter where he goes they have an easy way to catch up to him. And since the scan was restricted to the outside, Devlin didn't detect it.
*True Companions: Who were the people Kasumi let into her dreamscape. Ranma, Herb, Shampoo, Ukyo, Genma, and Makoto.
*True Sight: Kasumi can see past the Senshi’s disguise magic leading to Makoto being Mistaken for Subculture, specifically an otaku. 
**Ranko has this as a natural by-produce of her Anti-Magic.
**Jasmine placed a spell on Kasumi to grant her this.
*Truth Serums: Eyebright cast a truth spell on Kasumi and Ranma that causes them pain when they attempt to lie to him or conceal the truth.
*Tsundere: Nabiki is type one she’s ashamed of herself for being attracted to Kasumi-kun so takes it out on her. In fact Kasumi herself didn’t realize Nabiki’s feeling until told by a counterpart of her who was going through the same thing.
* Twin Telepathy: Shuanshontsūnīchuan causes this. The two forms are in constant mental contact. Not complete, and not exactly like telepathy, more like an awareness of the other. They don't seem to transmit memories well, it’s more like a Literal Split Personality. Most of the time, unless they've been separated for weeks, they don't even notice the mental link because their personalities are identical. The twin forms can get so accustomed to the link it's not uncommon for them to be talking together, get separated in the middle of the conversion, yet both keep it up, taking both twins' roles. When they get back together they even sometimes jump right back into the conversion in their proper roles without even noticing the difference.
*Twitchy Eye: Shampoo when Ken-ranma kissed Kasumi.
*Two Scenes, One Dialogue: After Kyoichira ordered her to move into the dorm Saki wondered how she got her self in situations like that. Before she finished the scene cut to Kasumi asking the same question talking about bathing with Shampoo as a result of a promise she had made.
**It happened again when Kasumi gave Herb The Talk the scene cut to Nabiki looking at the mural painted by Izou based off the rumors of her antics while she was under the effects of the pearl.
**Hidenori explaining the Kounji Dangerous Forbidden Technique to Herb, Kuno, the Saotome’s, and Tendo’s. While Ukyo is explaining it to Lemon and Sissithississ
*Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: While Hairbrush isn’t exactly ugly he’s described as looking like someone you'd find in a stereotypical Chinese curio shop. When you compare that to his Amazonian Beauty of a wife.
*Unfortunate Item Swap: Lime and Mint mistook the old lady’s pail for the Chiisuiton, there logic being that since its magic it could look like anything.
*Unprovoked Pervert Payback: After learning about Kimiko’s Defeat by Modestythe gymnastic team armed themselves with field hockey equipment and charged into the pool area adding to the mayhem that was already going on.
::Haruka: LET'S PUNISH THOSE ENEMIES OF WOMEN!
**Ukyo attacked stunned Mint in a fit of rage when she changed back only to realize she was naked.
*Unreliable Narrator: Both the Musk and Amazons have different accounts of how the Musk were created. The Amazon believe that they are outcasts from the village, while Sissithississ claims that the Musk are 10,000 years old making that impossible.
*Unresolved Sexual Tension: Nabiki to Kasumi-kun.
*The Unreveal: The name of any of the men apart of the Creature-Hunter Organization including the youma were never revealed.
*Unsettling Gender Reveal: Minako wasn’t happy being told that the guy she’d been ogling was Kasumi.
**Inverted when Happosai realized Haruka was a women and used the love pill on her.
**Kasumi finally realizing that Haruka was a girl.
*Unskilled but Strong: Ranma’s ability to manipulate the body’s energy system is this as he only had three days to develop and master it for his fight against Rippa.
::Ranma: I'm not looking to do anything fancy. I'm just looking to break something. That's always easier than trying to build, or reshape,
**Shampoo’s strategy against Kitsui was mainly to overpower her.
*Unstoppable Mailman: Averted the mailman played this card after Ukyo regretted mailing her confession to Ranma, only to state that Every Man Has His Price.
*Unwilling Roboticisation: The Nanomachines injected into Usagi replicate and the more of them in her, the more control they gain.
*Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Hiro trying to cheer Hinako up due to her troubles finding a boyfriend suggested she find something to give her a continuous supply of battle aura. Anyone who has read the original series knows how dangerous this is.
**Makoto inviting her friends to the San Cheng Huang
**After learning about how dangerous Jusenkyo is Mousse rushed off to rescue Kasumi only to fall into the Maonīchuan. When he heard Kasumi he could only think to rush to her for aid, jumping into her arms, unaware of her phobia at the time. The result was all too obvious. Kasumi screamed out in panic, tossed Mousse into the air and ran off right into Ukyo.
**Averted when Morgan told Arthur about Guinevere’s affair he let her off the hook and hid it. It was Mordred revealing it publicly later that brought down Camelot.
*Useless Bystander Parent: Toshiya didn’t do much to stop Natsu’s abuse of Saki, not that he could given that she was an Amazon. The one time he did fight for his parental rights she killed him and it is unknown weather or not it was actually for Miyuki’s benefit or if it was just to get more money out of the Ozakura family.
*Useless Superpowers: The invisibility function in Usagi’s suit turns it invisible not her, leaving her naked.
*The Vamp: Tonic though it turned out to be another Secret Test of Character
*Vampire Vannabe: Lotion accused Frost of being this.
*Victory by Endurance: By contrast to Kuno Ranma put up a far greater fight against Herb due to the later still being exhausted from her earlier fight against Kasumi. This forced Herb to fight on a purely physical level to conserve her chi.
**This was how Ranma managed to fight Herb to a draw.
*Victory Sex: Zig-zagged since it was a tie, but Kasumi still had their first time after the Dance Match.
*Victory Through Intimidation: The Ha Do Ken is not something one employed freely. One blast, coupled with her earlier activity, had left Kasumi feeling as if she had run ten laps around Tokyo at a sprint. She certainly was not up to using a second blast. The only thing that had kept her going was having the presence of mind to reserve enough energy from the attack to allow the use of her healing skills to stave off the fatigue's full effects. Fortunately, Herb had fallen for her bluff and gave up.
*Villain Ball: Rose taking Sailor Moon with her, even ignoring the Doctor’s advice that given her companions she could be unnecessary trouble.

**Principle Kuno after he was defeated begged his students not to beat him to a bloody pulp.
*Violence Is the Only Option: Frost destroyed the Kaisuifu out of sheer pettiness trapping Herb in her cursed form. In response he would accept nothing less then her death. Since talking was out of question Kasumi had to take him down.
*Violently Protective Girlfriend: Ukyo desperately wants to be this.
**After defeating Kasumi technically she is.
*Vitriolic Best Buds: Akane and Ranma could trade insults into next week and it meant nothing. It really didn't hurt either of them, and they both know it.
*Vocal Dissonance: Tsubasa’s voice really doesn’t match the tough guy persona he’s trying to present.
*Walking Armory: Ukyo seems awfully good at Mousse's style. The original Ukyo has pulled out a very large portable grill, propane tank and all, from no where so cakes, woks, rolling pins, and spatulas aren't a big jump.
*Walk On Water: Frost is able to walk on snow giving her a massive speed advantage.
*Wardrobe Malfunction: This is ultimately how Kasumi defeated Herb.
*Wax On, Wax Off: How do you train in Martial Arts Dance by dancing.
*Weak but Skilled: Kasumi after the energy Usagi unleashed when she broke her star-seed. Despite the fatigue and strain that must have been overwhelming her body, Kasumi was matching Rose move for move, dodging her every attempt at attack, and thwarting her every attempt to outmaneuver her.
**Kitsui
*"Well Done, Son" Guy: Jin advised Saki to stop trying to seek her mother’s (who obviously hates her) validation. Especially now that her grandmother is back in her life.

**Herb calling Ranma out for giving up on trying to create chi magic just because Grenda told him that how hard it was.
*What You Are in the Dark: The Amazon’s Fidelity Test invokes this. The drink they give the groom loosens the guard most people place on their thoughts and actions. It allows their true nature a chance to come out.
**This is why Kasumi risked her life to saved Rose. Killing her wouldn't bring Shampoo back. Besides, it was the right thing to do.
*When You Snatch the Pebble: Sissithississ theorized that the boulder blocking Ukyo’s shrine was this, stating that the Musk often do this.
**Both the Musk and the Amazons invert this as they see the ability to overcome such obstacle as a sign a warrior is ready for full training, not that they have mastered it.

**Mousse planned to learn all he could about Shampoo and prove himself superior to Kasumi by comparing notes. However, in less than a minute Kasumi had, without even realizing it, completely gutted his strategy by showing the fundamental flaw with it. While he may know specific details about Shampoo, Kasumi knows the intimate reasons behind them.
*With Great Power Comes Great Perks: Minako thought about this upon learning what Cosmos could do. As opposed to the other Inner’s who stressed that With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.
*Woman Scorned: Frost’s Cynicism Catalyst was Mousse pretending to befriend her so that he could manipulate her into fixing his eyesight.
**Kasumi beat the crap out of Haruka when she came into her restaurant.
*Won't Take Yes for An Answer: It took Kuno a little while to realize that Shampoo had agreed to go on a date with him.
*The Worf Effect: An in universe example. The Dark Kingdom was quite possibly the Senshi’s most dangerous opponent. While they never personally experienced them at their height, there is good reason they completely overwhelmed the Moon Kingdom’s defenders.
*Working Through the Cold: After the battle with Herb Frost stubbornly refused to show how sick she was.
*Worthy Opponent: Kitsui when Shampoo broke out of her Nightmare Waltz
*Wouldn't Hit a Girl: This is the reason Takeshi didn’t go after the guys’ girlfriends.
*Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Cologne efficiently trapped Nodoka and Soun into seeming like the 'bad guys' should they not concede the marriage.
**Nabiki did this to get Tsubasa to wave his winning. She told him that the reason she broke up with him was that she thought he used her. Naturally Tsubasa tore up his betting slip as he could never do that to his girlfriend.
*Wrong Genre Savvy: This is why Mokoto decided to join Kasumi’s class there were two many Contrived Coincidence’s for it not to be intentional. When in actuality the strange readings Ami has been getting is Jusenkyo magic for which C-chan is a victim.
**Averted as the Scouts realized they couldn’t just accept that Kasumi was a youma based on the info they already had.

**It turns out that at least the Spider Silk outfit Pierre made for her survived.
*Year Inside, Hour Outside: Jasmine's Pocket Dimension isn't temporarily in sync with the outside world, so time passes faster inside than out. To everyone else she was gone for a few months, but to Jasmine she was training for two years. 
*Yin-Yang Bomb: To get past her Anti-Magic Toma used Kankaho against Ranko.
*Yin-Yang Clash: Mana and Chi are likened to electricity and magnetism, intimately related, but different. Mana and chi don't get along too well usually and, just like bringing a strong magnet up to some electronics, you can get some glitches.
*Younger Than They Look: In addition to Siren So Pu is also this
*You Are Too Late: A non villainous example anticipating the council growing tired of her absence Cologne intending to return to the village, but it seems the timetable she set for herself was far too optimistic. The council held a non confidence vote in her leadership and it passed.
*You Didn't Ask: This was Rippa’s response when Kitsui demanded to know he didn’t tell her that Shampoo was married.
**Why didn’t Jin tell Saki about her sister.
*You Have Failed Me: Lord Gill was planning on doing this to the Doctor if he survived though it was more because he failed to follow orders then his failure in general.

*You Just Told Me: How Sissithississ confirmed Ukyo had a jusenkyo curse.

**Frost knew it was an illusion but couldn’t see through it.
*Zerg Rush: While Herb had a considerable physical advantage over the men Lemon enchanted, she was still overwhelmed by their shear number.
