This review is from: Ranma 1/2 - Ranma Forever - Initiation Nite (Vol. 1) (DVD)

The final season begins, and nearly the entire cast shows up in this volume(except for Kodachi and Dr. Tofu, who didn't disappear like in the manga). All of the episodes are original stories not based on the manga, but they're all still pretty funny, well except for the second episode. The first one has Kuno becoming the substitute principal when his father takes some time off, and naturally, he opts to take Ranma out, and both Gosunkugi and Nabiki are working with him! Can Ranma, Akane, and Ukyo get the two on their side and get rid of Kuno? The second episode is a bit more serious, as Ranma competes in a martial arts festival, where if he fails, he'll never be able to become a true martial artist! Although the humor doesn't show up until the end(no, I'm not spoiling it), I do think it's also a nice way of seeing exactly what makes Ranma tick. The third episode, arguably the best, features the Jusenkyo guide heading to Nerima, as it seems he's found an extension of the Spring-Of-Drowned-Man! Which means Ranma, Ryoga, Mousse, and Genma can be cured! Of course, don't expect things to go as expected(or else the series would end!). Nevertheless, this episode is pretty funny, my favorite scene being the part with Ryoga and the explosive Akane doll(you'll have to see that for yourself!).
