Soun Tendo
Soun Tendo is the father. He has a friend who's a panda...(a panda?..a PANDA?!?!??!?!).....named Genma Saotome who has a son which is the fiance of his youngest daughter-Akane. Soun is the kind of father that fears Akane's cooking and is very emotional. Soun gets really protective of his Akane when Ranma seems (SEEMS being the operative word) to back out of his marriage with her by flirting with disaster (which has a name by the way...It's Shampoo) or some little thing like that. He is a part walking-time-bomb. I guess that's where Akane gets it, eh? Soun is the overprotective cowardly father.
Kasumi Tendo
Kasumi is the loving, caring, motherly big sister. The reason why she's like a mother to all of them is that Mrs.Tendo died some time ago, and Kasumi is like a substitute mother to the whole family. She cooks, cleans and is always there! Doctor Tofu is in love with Kasumi and he is a chiropractor that has healed and helped Akane after one of her many fights as a child. Kasumi also has her evil ways. In the OAV "Faster Kasumi, Kill, Kill!", Kasumi is invaded by an evil spirit and she grows little horns, and has claws and is ...well, monster...but in a nice way!....Let me explain. Kasumi notices Mr.Panda's (Genma Saotome) fur is sticking up, so she remedy's it by using a very HOT iron to iron down his fur... ....Anyways, other than that video, Kasumi is a very nice person. Think of Kasumi of the passive character in the whole series. She can't take advantage of anyone. (Whereas, Kasumi's younger sister Nabiki is a different story...)
Kasumi's unflappable personality reminds me somewhat of Ami-chan from Sailor Moon, she's not as bright as Ami of course, and she doesn't spend all her time reading, cooking is more her forte.... I suppose that makes her a cross between Ami and Mako-chan .... any way, enough with the SM references already! Besides, Sheraye doesn't agree! ^-^
Nabiki Tendo
Nabiki can take advantage of ANYONE, and she TRIES to take advantage too! Ahh, the middle child. 17 year old Nabiki, that money-grubbing monster. I'll bet that she could smell money a mile away. Let's just say she's VERY financially secure, shall we? She's very shrewd and knows how to make cash..like selling "french" postcards of Ranma Girl-Type....or selling kettles of hot water to Ranma for a huge price.... or in any other way she can get her hands on money! She likes spending other people's cash..not her own. Nabiki is the kind of person that is logical and analytical. She adds a certain sense of cutting-edge humour to the whole series. Think of Nabiki as the money-grubber. Akane Tendo
Name: Akane Tendo Age:16 Parents: Soun Tendo, mother deceased Siblings: Older sisters, Kasumi and Nabiki Engaged to: Ranma In Love With: Ranma Loved By: Ranma,Ryogo, and Kuno Hated By: Kodachi, Shampoo, Ukyo Turns Into: Nothing Personality: Although Akane is a known tomboy, she is easily emotionaly hurt, and appears to be a very sensitive girl. Like Ranma she refuses to show her true feelings for her fiance`. This girl is also TOO TOO stubborn, and often gets into truble because of her refusal to say she can't win a fight.
