Ranma 1/2 Episode 9 recap
Ranma 1/2 Episode 9, titled ‘I’ll Never Let Go,’ sees Ryoga arrive at the pair-skating match between Ranma and Akane against Mikado and Azusa, planning to support Akane as P-Chan. Ranma transforms Ryoga into his pig form to keep him out of the way.
During the battle, Ranma struggles on the ice due to his lack of skating experience but prioritizes protecting Akane when Mikado attempts to flirt with her. Azusa and Mikado employ a helicopter-style maneuver to separate them, but Ranma shields Akane, taking significant damage.
