EPISODE CONTEXT

After Episode 3 leaned into romantic tension between Ranma and Akane, Episode 4 widens the scope by introducing Ryoga Hibiki as a lasting rival figure, pulling the series back toward its martial arts roots. Sitting at the one-third mark of this 12-episode season, this is a crucial expansion episode that establishes a key character whose presence will fuel conflicts and complications going forward. It marks the transition from initial setup into a more complex web of rivalries and relationships that the back half of the season will build upon.
