B-

A mind-reading little boy* shows up and demonstrates his clairvoyance on the extended family, including the perverted grandfather (more about that character later).  He can't read the mind or heart of Akane, since he has a crush on her, and yet by episode's end he knows that both she and Ranma are liars, presumably about their feelings for each other.  There are a few scenes with "Chinese" Shampoo, she of the purple hair and crush on Ranma.  And a guy with a headband wanders the woods and he's probably another suitor, but again, I can't keep track of all these characters.  Note that Ranma does not transform into his female form this time.


*In anime, it's really hard to tell the ages of characters unless specified.  He could be six but more likely ten.  Prepubescent anyway, since he can wear short-shorts, a pink shirt, and the largest pompadour on the show.
