Come! The hot spring hotel isn't far!
Let's go with gusto, everybody!
It's lucky the rain stopped.
It's a good thing they were only passing showers.
But Ryoga suddenly ran on ahead as soon as he got off the bus.
I wonder what's wrong?
Maybe he got a stomach ache.
There's only one road to the hotel, so he can't get lost.
But we should've reached the hotel by now.
If we get lost in this wilderness--
We might never get out alive.
Have faith in me! I told you, there's only one road!
I refuse to let Akane see me like this!!
You know, I think we might be lost.
Of course, we're lost!
I guess we are lost, after all.
Isn't that what we said?!
So we're lost...?
We're lost!!
Ryoga!
Good! I made it!
This guy suddenly attacked me--!
No, he'd fainted on the road, so I helped him.
This pig attacked me!
Do you live around here?
Do you know where the Hotel Royal Prince Okura is?
-- He's the manager. -- Welcome.
So where the heck is it? That Royal Prin... whatever.
"Hotel Royal Prince Okura"
Royal Prince Okura Hotel.
Hotel Royal Prince Okura
I expected as much.
Dad's awful! I bet he got the cheapest place.
I hope the roof doesn't leak.
I'm exhausted.
Yes?
Excuse me, young ladies.
Won't you enjoy a soak in our hotel's outdoor bath?
-- Outdoor bath? -- It sounds wonderful.
Our hot spring water cures all the usual ailments.
It's even said to enhance martial-arts skills.
Will it really improve martial-arts skills?
"Large bath" means "mixed bathing."
Maybe I'll get to see the girls naked.
-- I just remembered something--! -- Hold it!
Don't manhandle a weak old man!
I bet you were gonna peep at the girls.
We can't allow that!
This hot spring cures all kinds of unusual conditions!
It even enhances martial-arts skills, so let's go for a soak--!
What?!
-- It cures all kinds-- -- Of unusual conditions?!
Then just maybe--!
-- No more pig! -- No more girl Ranma!
We could be cured!
Let's go for a soak!
Outdoor bath, here we come!
Akane...!!
My, are you boys here for a bath, too?
We heard it enhances martial-arts skills.
Right!
This is a hot spring hotel. You've got to enjoy the hot spring.
-- Akane, let's go in together. -- Forget it! Can't you see the signs?
WOMEN
MEN
It's not mixed bathing!
Ridiculous! Why else would I come to this godforsaken place?
-- Too bad. -- No peeping, now.
Who's going to peep?! I'll just go right in--!
You've got to watch him every second!
Honestly!
Ranma? Since we're at a hot spring, won't you grant my request?
Ranma...!
Won't you make an old man happy...
and be a girl?!
No way, no how!
-- Aw, please! Be a girl!! -- Forget it!
-- You're a stubborn cuss! -- Y'all hafta do better than--
Rats!
Success! Success!
Filthy pervert!
Come back!
I'll beat the lecher outta you!
Did you just hear something?
I wonder if something's back there.
A peeping Tom?
What if it's connected to the men's bath?
But there were separate entrances. Maybe it's an animal or something.
We are in the mountains. Could there be monkeys?
Maybe it's a bear.
Bear?!
We'd better find out.
Akane, use this.
C'mere, you--!
Dirty pervert! Come back here!!
I think you hit it.
-- It sounded hollow, but I did hit it. -- Let's go see!
Is someone back there?
Maybe our bath is connected to the women's.
-- I'd better check. -- Hold it!
Peeping is a despicable act! I'll never allow it!
Akane might be there.
Akane?!
Akane... in the nude--?!!
N-No! What was I thinking?
Stop! It's wrong to peep, after all.
Huh?
Nothing's here.
But I did hit something.
Could we have imagined it?
Huh, there's nobody here.
How boring.
I'm sure I heard something.
What's wrong, Ranma?
N-Nothin'.
What's wrong? Did you see something?
Y-Yeah.
Huh?!
In the water?
I'm sure I saw somethin'.
Absurd!
Couldn't it have been just a Japanese monkey that came to bathe?
No! That was no monkey. It was somethin' in the water.
Somethin' eerie.
Say Kasumi, what Ranma said can't be true, can it?
Who knows?
It sounds possible.
Come ON, Nabiki!
Strange things happen in broken-down hotels like this.
Come on, Nabiki, don't scare--
Akane, it's okay. It's no ghost. Come on out.
Let go! I only wanted to sleep with Akane--!
-- Don't try anything funny! -- Filthy pervert!
Oh, it's just the guys?
Hey, we're gonna tell scary stories. Wanna join us?
One warm, breezy night just like tonight...
at a hot-spring hotel...
a maid was killed and dumped in the hot-spring tub.
From the next night on, if you listened carefully...
you could hear water splashing, though not a soul was there.
That was overkill, Daddy.
Think so? I thought they'd like it.
Anyhow, it's late. Get to bed, everybody.
Okay.
You could hear water splashing, though not a soul was there.
It was somethin' eerie.
Is somebody there?!
What's wrong? You seem frightened.
In the water, there's--
-- Huh? -- Nothing!
Dad, it's creepy here. Let's leave!
But we were invited for three days and two nights.
We should stay at least another day!
Not me! I can't stand it anymore!
What's wrong?
Akane insists there's something in the hot spring.
There really was!
You and Ranma say the same thing.
But don't worry. There's nothing there.
By the way, Tendo, wanna go for a soak?
Sounds great! Let's go!
Honestly.
-- Soaking in the hot spring. -- Nice and hot, hot.
Isn't this invigorating?
You're so right.
Why do Akane and Ranma dislike this nice bath?
Nice and hot, hot.
Pitiful weaklings! Getting overcome by the heat...!
You're wrong. It wasn't the heat that did this.
Someone attacked them!
But who?
Ranma and Ryoga went to check the bath area.
I'm going back there!
Find anything?
Nope.
That manager. I bet he knows what's goin' on.
Let's get 'im!
Ranma?
Ryoga!
Ranma!
Ryoga!
Where are you?!
Is that you, Ranma?
No, it's not... Is it?
What can I do for you, sirs?
We just wanna ask you some questions.
Let's have the truth.
You sent this invitation to the Tendo family, didn't you?
By claiming that the water enhanced martial-arts skills...
you lure martial artists here to fight the guy in the water?
What's in the water, anyway?
It's Master Yutaro Yudono.
-- Yutaro? -- Who's he?
Master Yutaro is the young owner of this hotel.
His father was sickly.
He kept telling Master Yutaro to marry soon...
so that he could see his grandchildren.
But he passed away three years ago.
That's too bad.
No bride would come to this rundown hotel in the hills.
So Master Yutaro shut himself up in the bathroom.
The water here is said to improve martial-arts skills...
so our only guests were rugged martial-artist types.
Young girls never came.
And as Master Yutaro took out his frustrations on these men...
he perfected the Bath Style of Martial Arts.
I so pitied poor Master Yutaro.
So I sent out invitations to our hotel...
in hopes that young girls would come.
Ranma! How're we gonna rescue Akane?!
-- I got an idea! -- What is it?
This!!
Sorry, Ryoga. I can't lure Yutaro out if you're around.
What a great bath!! I'm so happy!
I've got to wash myself!
It's freezin'!
That felt wonderful! Maybe I'll do it again!
Wash, wash, wash!
Come closer, pal!
Now!!
Come back!
Damn! Where'd he go?
Come on out, Yutaro! Bring Akane back!
Just a guy...!
Rats. Can't see in this steam.
Damn! Where is he?!
Shoot, can't move if I can't see him!
Where the heck did he go?
You dirty--!
Found ya!
Come back--!!
Rats, the heat--
Blast Ranma! Where'd he go?!
Akane!
Ranma!
-- Ranma! -- I rescued Akane!
Ryoga!
What's wrong, Ranma?! Pull yourself together!
Heat's got me. Can't move...!
Ranma! Look out!
Ranma!
It's a girl?!
Saotome Secret Move! Yukata Wrap!!
And the knockout!!
Ya had it comin'.
Let's have a look at ya.
What's with this guy?!
He's drop-dead gorgeous!
HOTEL ROYAL PRINCE OKURA
-- My word. -- It's changed.
It's not a dump anymore.
We've been expecting you, Mr. Tendo!
Master Yutaro, Akane's here!
Hello, Yutaro.
What's with that attitude?!
He's getting that attention...
only because I suggested that he appear in a commercial.
Now, now, don't get mad.
If I go this way, I might see the girls--
Hold it, ol' lech!!
Don't you peep at them!!
Hey, girls! Join me in the hot springs?
I'm at Hotel Royal Prince Okura.
