main cast
* Based on the manga story Nightmare! Incense of Spring Sleep from Ranma ½ volume 34.
Happousai is up to no good again, stealing underwear from the girl's changing room at school. But Ranma transforms using his feminine side to capture the culprit, thereby exposing himself way too much for Akane's taste.
The old man will not take this defeat lightly though, and vows terrible revenge on Ranma, by brewing up the fearsome Deep Sleep Incense — one whiff and one will not wake up until the end of Spring. By accident, not Ranma but Akane is hit by the incense at the Anything Goes Martial Arts Tendo Dojo. Strangely, the sleeping Akane automatically violently defends herself from any touch or form of attack, and even starts to act out her dreams.
Ranma's natural sense of preservation makes him desperately want to look for a means of curing Akane...

Despite being created twelve years after the last episode of Ranma, "Akumu! Shunmin Kou" feels like it could very well have been part of the series' original run. A true return to form! Kinda makes me pine for a brand-new series of Ranma, but sadly this is it. Fans of classic Ranma ½ owe it to themselves to check this one out!
