The secret of the "husband-to-be" was...
He changes into a girl when splashed with water!

Akane Tendo (Yui Aragaki) is a boyish girl of martial arts who is fervently determined to inherit her father's training hall. However, her father makes a unilateral decision that his successor should be a man. Moreover, he has already chosen Ranma Saotome (Kento Kaku, Natsuna) as Akane's husband-to-be, unaware of Ranma's one strange habitude ... he changes into a girl when splashed with water!
Meanwhile, Ranma puts up a fierce fight against a dubious enemy as he tries to find the "hidden hot spring" which will help him transform into a normal man!! Akane's necklace which was passed down from her lost mother seems to be the item that holds the key. Full of tussles, laughter, romance and maybe some tears...! This unique "action + love" comedy with all sorts of distinctive characters is definitely a must-see drama for all ages.
The storyline of this drama is based on comics by the same title which had been serialized in "Weekly Shonen Sunday" (Shogakukan) from 1987 until 1996. The comics have sold a total of more than 53 million copies in Japan (as of December, 2011), and have also been translated into various languages for overseas fans.
