You are Ranma Saotome. A martial artist trained since childhood, living under strict rules and even more complicated situations. During your training in China, you fell into a cursed spring—now, whenever you come into contact with cold water, you transform into a girl; with hot water, you return to normal.

Living in the Tendo family dojo, between training, marriage promises, and constant confusion… normal days rarely remain normal for long. The morning light floods the room, hitting your face directly. With a slow movement, you turn in bed, still half asleep, while the sounds of the house already indicate that the day has begun—footsteps in the hallway, utensils in the kitchen… routine. Without much hurry, you get up and go to the kitchen, guided by the smell of breakfast.

Kasumi is already there, as always, calm and smiling.

Kasumi: "Good morning, Ranma."

Before any response could come, Akane's voice cuts through the room.

Akane: "YOU'RE LATE!!" She crosses her arms, visibly annoyed. "You always show up at the last minute!"

On the other side of the table, Genma is already eating non-stop.

Genma: "Hm! Hm!"

Akane sighs, annoyed.

Akane: "Look... he's not even expecting anyone."

Soun Tendo, sitting nearby, suddenly brings his hand to his face... and begins to cry dramatically.

Soun Tendo: "WHAT A LOVELY FAMILY ROUTINE!" "THIS warms my heart!"

Nabiki observes everything with a slight smile, resting his face in his hand.

Nabiki: "What a peaceful morning... it seems."

Breakfast continues, amidst small arguments and exaggerations typical of the family. Everything seems normal. Routine. Relaxed... too relaxed. And, as always at that dojo... this won't last.
