History~
It is most commonly believed that Anything Goes Martial Arts was founded by martial arts master and lecher extraordinaire Happosai during his travels around China and Япония long before the start of the series. How long назад is disputed as his exact age has never been disclosed. In the manga, Happosai is at least 118 and at most 230 years old (and in the Аниме a little over 300), with his training journey happening when he was still a young man. If this is true, then it is безопасно, сейф to assume that the school itself, или at least its beginnings, are quite old. What is known is that, sometime before the start of the series, Happosai took two young apprentices, Soun Tendo and Genma Saotome, as his students, an act which would lead to both the creation of the two main branches of Anything Goes Martial Arts as well as his lengthy hibernation.
After Soun and Genma were able to imprison Happosai in a cave with sake, explosives and Shinto seals draped over a boulder that sealed the cave's entrance, they founded their respective branches of Anything Goes Martial Arts, both named after their families. Soun would eventually settle down at the Tendo Dojo to teach his Tendo School to his daughter Akane, while Genma would later take his son Ranma on a 13-14 год long training journey, wherein both inadvertently gained their Jusenkyo curses, before presenting him to Soun for the eventual reunification of the two schools.

Genma Saotome: Master, Saotome School
Soun Tendo: Master, Tendo School
Ranma Saotome: Heir to the Saotome School, Happosai's chosen heir
Akane Tendo: Heir to the Tendo School
**Practitioners by loose extension only
Ryu Kumon: Not affiliated with, или directly trained by the school. Heir to the Kumon Dojo and practitioner of the Yama-Sen Ken, which Genma invented. Later forced to печать the scroll that described the style's techniques, and possibly his knowledge of them, after being defeated by Ranma.
Kurumi (OVA only): Almost exclusively independent training.
Natsume (OVA only): Almost exclusively independent training.
Hinako Ninomiya: Not a trained martial artist, strictly had her body modified as a child for her special abilities.
Special Techniques~
Happosai, Genma, and Ranma perform the majority of the Anything Goes Martial Arts techniques shown in the series. In Ranma's case, two of his techniques are actually moves he learned from Cologne, elder of the Chinese Amazons. There is a subset of moves that only Hinako is able to use because of the training Happosai gave her when she was young that allows her to absorb and utilise raw chi from her opponents.
Soun
As a former student of Happosai, Soun is in excellent shape, frequently fights wearing full traditional samurai armour, and is skilled at both hand to hand combat and handling a wide variety of traditional weaponry, including a bow and Стрела and a naginata. He has been able to reach a draw against Ranma in serious bō fighting. He manages to come across as quite formidable during a few confrontations with Happosai, but has not been explicitly shown to use any special techniques beyond his battle aura.
Battle Aura
Main article: Battle Aura
Usually seen when Soun is angry at Ranma and needs to convince him to do something.
Akane
As one of the heirs of the Anything Goes Martial Arts School, Akane is a very good fighter and has excellent physical strength and agility. She has been shown as extremely talented but doesn't know enough to use her style as efficiently as Ranma.
Battle Aura
Akane's battle auras are usually generated out anger and are instigated by Ranma.
Dual Jet-Stream Raging Waters Attack (Anime only): In this combination attack, Ranma and Akane пересекать, крест their arms together and spin each other around and around, using their respective weights like a centrifuge. Once enough speed/momentum is gained, they deliver a combined sharp kick. This attack was only used once in their battle against the Dojo Destroyer.[3]
Sixth Sense: Like an undisclosed amount of other martial artists in the main cast, Akane has a certain extrasensory awareness, which in her case is consistently shown to warn her from incoming danger, ambushes, and active battle auras, for example those from мусс или Kodachi. It also occasionally seems to grant her a vague premonition, as when she heard Ryoga Hibiki call her name from afar when the latter was almost strangled to death by Lime, and possibly overhearing Ranma's thoughts from the сердце after the conflict with Saffron.
Sleep fighting: When Akane is in a deep sleep she tosses and turns in such a way that it appears that she is fighting whoever might be Далее to her. It was effective enough to prevent Happosai from groping her while she was asleep, although Ryoga observed that this was actually a lot calmer than normal.[4]
Video game only
The following abilities appear in the RPG Ranma ½: Akanekodan Teki Hihou:
Teate: A medicinal technique that allows Akane to treat her allies' injuries and help them recover еще quickly. The Mina Teate is a variant that allows her to cure multiple allies at once, but is only as powerful as the original Teate, while the Mina Chiryo is a еще powerful variant of the Mina Teate and the Zenkai Teate is an extremely powerful curative technique that can even restore consciousness to a fighter who has been knocked out.
Jigoku Gurama: A powerful grappling technique that flings an opponent into the air, causing them to fall to the ground.
Yama Arashi: A rapidly performed series of Jigoku Guramas, allowing Akane to hurl multiple foes skyward in a single explosive burst of motion.
Ranma
Ranma's training in the Anything Goes Martial Arts began under his father when he was approximately 2 years old, going by the flashback to the time he was separated from his mother. He is fully aware of Genma's dishonourable nature, and holds a grudge for the way Genma would steal Еда from him when he was younger. Despite this, he may have incorporated some of Genma's underhanded methods to maximise his effectiveness.
While he doesn't mind extensively cheating in order to triumph against superior enemies, Ranma generally tries to fight fairly and expects the same from his opponents. His first thirteen to fourteen years of practice were classical in nature, training almost exclusively with Genma. After he encountered the Chinese Amazons, Ranma has been taught two of their techniques, which he has incorporated into his fighting style. Ranma also recurrently uses improvisational underhanded trickery, among other instances when vainly attempting to beat Ryoga when the latter had the battle mark on his stomach.

Main article: Hiryū Shōten Ha
Pride of the Fierce Tiger (猛虎高飛車, Mōko Takabisha, literally Fierce Tiger Domineering [note when trying to translate it your self Ты will get high handed because it is read as high handed first because in the translations it is done alphetibeticly depending on the translator] ): A chi attack based on the emotion of confidence, which Ranma created for himself. It was developed as a direct counter to Ryoga's Shishi Hōkōdan. Although he discovered how the Shishi Hōkōdan worked, Ranma could not maintain the level of depression required for it to be an effective tool. Its weakness is that it is inefficient if he is unnerved by the prowess shown by a sufficiently powerful opponent. In the manga, Ranma is able to create a "Double Mōko Takabisha" that fires two equally strong chi blasts. In the live action special he can already use the Mōko Takabisha by the time he arrives at the Tendo Dojo, but struggles to master it in his female form.
Sixth Sense: Like several other characters, Ranma has displayed a certain extrasensorial awareness, warning him of incoming danger, или battle auras.
