** Soun Tendo pops his fist against his hand when Nabiki reveals that there is a Japanese translation of the Chinese marital laws right next to the Chinese language version that he had been unable to read, stating, "And I missed that completely!" ** Ranma makes the fist against the palm gesture when Akane suggests that they can clear up all of their issues with Tsubasa just by explaining that Ukyo is, in fact, a girl, with a soft, "Oh, yeah." It doesn't actually help anything, though, as Tsubasa already knew Ukyo was a girl, and that was the source of Tsubasa's interest. ** In the OVA two-parter where the usual cast are fighting the phoenix, the shop keeper keeps doing the fist-against-palm gesture every time he recalls something about the phoenix's development. The last time he does it, it's because the giant Phoenix on Kuno's head resembles the statue outside of his store. Akane chides him for startling her.
