 Ranma Saotome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ranma Saotome is the son of Genma and Nodoka Saotome and, obviously, the main character in the series (hence the name, Ranma ½).
Ranma was taken from his home at an early age by his father, and journeyed with him on a decade-long training trip to perfect his martial arts.
It is possible Ranma might have a small piece of affection for her in his heart, because when she suddenly hated him (because of a magical pin), he tried to win her heart by romancing her and attempting to get her jealous.

 Ranma ½ characters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ranma Saotome is the son of Genma and Nodoka Saotome and, obviously, the main character in the series (hence the name, Ranma 1/2).
Cologne calls Ranma "future son-in-law", and though she tries to trick and scheme to get Ranma to marry Shampoo at first (as well as at a couple of opportunities that fall into her lap), most of the time she is there as an aside, seeming to find joy in just watching the madness.
Ranma's foe, and the only recurring character who can come close to Ranma in a fair fight (besides Cologne and Happosai); he is incredibly strong and tough (arguably the strongest in the entire series), and swings around an amazingly heavy bamboo umbrella as if it weighs nothing.

 The X/Y Files: Ranma Saotome
Ranma really can't be blamed for her apparently deliberate conviction to view him in the worst possible light in almost every situation he gets into; like many Takahashi heroes, Ranma is also often the victim of circumstance, and Akane is not one to care to take this into account.
Ranma is a strange contradiction, declaring early on that he hates it that Akane is always beating him up and yet picking the fights with her himself!
Genma taught Ranma everything he'd ever need to know about fighting, keeping in top physical shape, keeping focussed when fighting; he even taught him the way a proper, honourable martial artist is supposed to behave, to the point where Ranma recognizes it whenever Genma does the exact opposite.

Ranma is a red-haired girl, and her accompany is not her father but a panda.
Ranma always refers Akane as an uncute tomboy; however ironically, he himself is just as Akane, who does not fit into the male gender expectation himself because of his dual gender identification.
