** When he fails to get Happosai angry in order to use the Hiryu Shoten Ha on him (which relied on drawing on the hot ki of the opponent, which Happosai knew and thus refused to get angry no matter what Ranma does), Ranma realized that he had been focusing on the heat of Happosai's anger. He actually had another heat source he could draw off of that's even greater, which is from the heat of his perversity, something Happosai has in surplus and cannot stave off. Ranma draws it out by flashing lewd photos of his girl form to him, thus baiting Happosai to release the hot ki needed to use the technique.

Added DiffLines:

* EurekaMoment: A big part of what makes Ranma a great martial artist. Once he gets hit with a special move he's unfamiliar with, it's rare for it to work against him again as Ranma would figure out a way to counter. Examples include...
** Being able to get around Ryoga's super endurance due to the Breaking Point training by making sure his hits are crushing between his attacks and another object.
** His failure to recreate the Shishi Hokodan effectively since it drew on depression for strength had Ranma create a new move in the Moko Takabisha which drew on an emotion that was more natural for him.
** When fighting against Kirin, Ranma realized that he was stopping his attacks with his chopsticks. He gets the idea to hit Kirin with hot water balls as liquid can't be stopped by chopsticks.
** Fighting against Herb's technique, Ranma-chan manages to counter it with a Hiryu Shoten ha, but it was re-countered. She does this again in their next fight, but learning from Herb's counter, Ranma-chan upgrades the technique into the Hiryu Korin Dan, defeating Herb.

Ranma is no longer the trope image.


* HeadTurningBeauty: He's the trope picture, even. Men who don't know that he's a GenderBender ogle at his girl form, those who do know still ogle at his girl form, many ask for a date, some propose marriage, some kidnap him in order to forcefully propose marriage, et cetera.

* InconsistentSpelling: The Japanese anime credits write male Ranma's name in kanji (乱馬) and female Ranma's name in hiragana (らんま). The latter is also the official title of the series.

* TransgenderFetishization: Despite identifying as male to the core, Ranma is often made to wear very appealing outfits when he's in his girl form. Even the covers and SideStoryBonusArt will put his girl form in sexy clothes.

* ItsPersonal: Ranma greatly disliked the fact that Akane callously backed off from her budding friendship with him as soon as she realized that he's a boy. This became the EstablishingCharacterMoment that formed his opinion of her henceforth, becoming the source of why he bickers with her.

** Ranma swears vengeance upon Mikado Sanzen'in due to the fact that the latter unwittingly emasculated him in the most humiliating way Ranma could fathom. No other character in the series manages to insult Ranma so fundamentally.


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewTheRulesImBeautiful: Ranma knows himself to be quite attractive in both male and female form, and he seems under the impression that he can get away with murder every time he has to use his looks to pull through. This almost always doesn't work the way he intends to, and more often than not, he ends up getting the wrong kind of attention. Part of the humor related to Ranma is precisely the fact that he cannot reap the fruits of his conceit.

* JustIgnoreIt: Played with. Ranma lacks the will to deal with his UnwantedHarem, partly because he can't bring himself to any of the girls mad by his account. On the other hand, he enjoys being liked by them.

Added DiffLines:

* OffendedByAnEnemysIndifference: When, Shampoo, who is normally obsessed with Ranma, loses her feelings for him due to a magic brooch; rather than being elated that his UnwantedHarem has one less member, Ranma feels insulted that a girl is no longer interested in him and tries to get her to fall in love with him again, despite all of the pain and misery she's caused him.

* BelligerentSexualTension: The male half of the template's {{Trope Codifier}}s, with Akane as the female. Ranma and Akane are frequently fighting, insulting each other, and pissing each other off. Their mutual attraction is still obvious, not that either of them is willing to admit it.



* RedheadsAreRavishing: Ranma's female form is a beautiful redhead with a large bosom. Pretty much every guy who doesn't know Ranma is a SexShifter has shown attraction to his redheaded girl form. In fact, several of his classmates find female Ranma hot despite knowing the truth.

* VitriolicBestBuds: He and Ryōga eventually evolve into this. They're still at each other's throats as they always have been, but at least they can be genuinely helpful towards the other from time to time.

Ore Onna is now def-only


* OreOnna: Ranma uses the very masculine pronoun ''[[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns ore]]'' even in female form, which is rather attention-getting to people who don't know "her" real identity.
