* CantCatchUp: No matter how much Ryoga and Mousse try, they can never hope to match either Ranma once they became twins and training from the original Chosen.

* CantCatchUp: No matter how much Ryoga and Mousse try, they can never hope to match either Ranma once they became twins and received training from the original Chosen.



* NextTierPowerup: In the beginning after Ranma got separated into twins, both Ranmas were only at half strength. They were able to get their strength back up to par and beyond after getting trained by Taron and Soren for a few days. Once they acquire their weapons, the Lightstar Blade and Storm Striker, their abilities are multiplied further as they are imbued with the abilities and memories of the past Chosen Champions. This was necessary to get them ''on par'' with the enemies they will face.



* RaceAgainstTheClock: The fourth trial was a race against time in which the Ranma Twins had three hours to hunt down five fragments of the medallion needed to get a victory. Problem was that all the fragments were in highly dangerous places in the Dark World.



* TimedMission: The fourth trial was a race against time in which the Ranma Twins had three hours to hunt down five fragments of the medallion needed to get a victory. Problem was that all the fragments were in highly dangerous places in the Dark World.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
** Nodoka takes no nonsense from Soun Tendo when he tries to insist the Ranma twins marry his daughters "for the sake of honor". She tells him straight up that the engagement is hereby null and void since she has seen what Ranma has been put through since staying with them, not to mention how angered she was after seeing Akane attempting to assault both Ranmas moments before. Nodoka declares then and there that the engagements to both Shampoo and Ukyo are valid while the one with the Tendos is now invalid.
** After Mousse loses an honor duel against Ranma Red, Shampoo tells Mousse to move on from her because she loves Ranma Red and is going to marry him. When Mousse refuses to let go, Shampoo angrily drills it into him that she never loved him and never will, and that his continuing to pine after her despite all this is a lost cause.
** Ironically, [[spoiler:Kasumi and Nabiki deliver one to Soun when he tried to get them engaged to the Ranma twins. They call out how Soun's obsession with the marriage promise had been hurting the family and tell him that it would be for the best to just drop the whole thing. Soun angrily threatens to disown his daughters if they refuse to comply to his demands. They all decide to pack up and leave, leaving Soun devastated]].
** After [[spoiler:fully being brought back from death]], Akane angrily lays it into Kuno that she will never love him and that it was never his business to begin with who she dates. From how she denounced Kuno, Akane also finally put an end to his stupid rule about fighting her for a date.
** When Kodachi attempts to kill Shampoo and Ukyo in an attempt to claim both Ranma brothers for herself, the twins incapacitate her and tell it to her straight that they never loved her. In fact, they don't even like Kodachi to begin with and will never belong to her. The Ranmas angrily tell Kodachi to get lost, causing her to run off in tears.
** After [[spoiler:Ryoga is brought back to life, Akane angrily calls him out on all he's done, calling him a liar for hiding his curse from her and using it to cause Ranma trouble. She also tells it to Ryoga straight that all his problems were his own fault and not Ranma's. When Ranma Blue comes in, Ryoga angrily tries to attack him as he still blames the former Saotome for all his problems. Ranma Blue easily incapacitates Ryoga before adding in that as of now, he and Ranma Red wash their hands clean of them. They've got more important things to worry about than Ryoga's petty vengeance and needs to get over himself as it is just pathetic]].

Genma tries to break up Ranma Red and Ranma Blue's engagements to Shampoo and Ukyou by [[spoiler: permanently turning the two girls into boys via splashing them with Togenkyo water. The Ranma Twins get enraged at what Genma had done, who then taunts them that there's nothing they can do about it and will have to follow his demands to uphold the Tendo engagement]]. The twins blast him into low earth orbit for what he's done. Fortunately, Soren and Taron were able to reverse the damage.

* PercussivePickpocket: The fourth trial pitted the Ranma twins against Katoka and Makana who had the last fragment of the medallion needed to win the trial. During the fight, bot twins unleashed their Amaguriken technique on the demon sisters, who blast them back, mocking them for their futile attempt and gleefully pointing out that they're out of time. Ranma Blue then reveals that he swiped the last fragment from them during the last scuffle, much to the sisters' shock and anger.

Unfortunately for him, it was too much power that it killed him in a gristly manner before the rest of existence was literally wiped out. Turned out that this was all predicted by Kami-sama himself who informs the Ranma Twins that he installed a failsafe spell in one of the crystal's fragments to reset everything and return them back to the point in which the cataclysm happened in order to prevent it]].

* TakingAThirdOption: In their final battle against Arcados and Zuruka, the two demons [[FusionDance fuse into Arcaruka]], knowing that it would be a lose/lose situation for the Ranma twins. If the Ranma twins die, then Earth will be invaded by the Dark World unimpeded and [[spoiler:Akane's soul destroyed]]. If the Ranma twins win, the resulting energy backlash from Arcaruka's death will hasten the destruction of the barrier separating Earth from the Dark World, so Earth will be overrun anyway, not to mention the resulting explosion will kill both Ranmas and [[spoiler:Akane's soul]]. Ranma Red and Ranma Blue defeat Arcaruka, but then quickly teleport the demon to a place far away where they couldn't cause too much damage before going critical. They chose to port him to the Realm of Infinity where the space is vast, thus the impending explosion was practically smothered in the vast space.
