Ep. 1: Shampoo's Personality Shifts After Wearing a Mysterious Pendant from Her Grandmother's Collection

1

Shampoo wears a pendant from her grandmother's jewelry collection, causing her to act opposite to her true feelings for Ranma. This brooch makes her express affection she normally hides, leading Ranma to panic at the prospect of losing a fiancée. He decides to confess his love to her to secure the relationship. Cologne anticipates this confession and gathers her friends to witness it, ensuring Ranma cannot retract his words and must honor the engagement. This scheme also aids Ryoga and Kuno, who intend to win Akane's affection once Ranma publicly declares his feelings for Shampoo, complicating the romantic dynamics among the group.
