The Chinese Amazon warrior Shampoo appears. By her tribe's law, having lost to girl-Ranma she hunts him to "kill the loser," but after being beaten by the male Ranma she flips to loving him instead and launches an aggressive romantic assault.

It's a turning-point volume where the key characters who drive the rest of the story all fall into place.
