As the Tendo family prepares for Christmas, Ranma goes missing. A routine search brings in the usual troublemakers, but still no Ranma in time to spend Christmas with Akane? Then, the cold weather brings an unnatural snowfall and unnatural enemies. When a mysterious creature attacks Ryoga, Ranama and Akane head into the cold to find out what happened only to find a little girl and some very large footprints. What could be the connection be?
Three winter-themed episodes emphasize the affection underlying the endless quarrels that divide Ranma, Akane, their wacky friends, and their oddball relatives. Akane suffers a hairline fracture falling off a balance beam, and Ranma finds the most awkward way to express his concern. When a Snow-Woman (Yuki-onna) out of Japanese folk tales and a bizarre Abominable Snowman threaten to turn the town of Furinkan into an outdoor icebox, Ranma, Akane, and the long-suffering Ryoga defeat them with a mixture of martial arts and kindness. Arguments over who will spend Christmas Eve with whom lead to fisticuffs, but a gargantuan dinner brings everyone together. Like The Simpsons and I Love Lucy, Ranma 1/2 is about people who love each other but drive each other crazy: the love provides the leavening that keeps the slapstick comedy from seeming mean-spirited or cruel. Unrated; suitable for ages 12 and up: Risqué humor and cartoon violence. --Charles Solomon
