Ranma Club

And he got with ALL of them?

Nodoka: ENCHANTIX!
Ranma: M…Mom…? Is that… really you?
Nodoka: Do you see now, Ranma? I’m really a Faerie.
Ranma: So how long have you been a Faerie, Mom?
Nodoka: Ever since I was born, Ranma. I suppose this is more shocking than a Jusenkyo curse, huh?

Ranma: Yeah, I suppose… Hold on, does that mean that I’m a…

—Nodoka's revelation to Ranma about his heritage.

Ranma Club is a crossover between Ranma ½ and Winx Club by Frequent Reader.

Diverging from the ending of Season 3 of Winx Club, Valtor survives and tries to kill the Winx while they were weakened, but the Specialists die in self-sacrifice in order to save them. To "revive" them, Faragonda commits a taboo and heads to Earth in the past where she requests assistance from an old student, one Nodoka Saotome who was about to be pregnant. The Specialists' souls are infused into an unborn Ranma where their personalities and traits mixed to make the Ranma we all know and love. After the events of Ranma ½, Ranma is told by Nodoka about his half-Faerie heritage and offers to take him away from his hellish life to start anew in Magix. He accepts and now attends Alfea, not to mention get a harem in the form of the Winx. Much craziness and adventures ensues as Ranma adjusts to his now magical life.

This fic was made as a break from the usual crossovers of Ranma ½ with Sailor Moon. Also to show a "what if" of Ranma being in this setting, and more importantly, how he'd react to girls who all love but don't fight over him.

Tropes used in Ranma Club include:

• Absolute Cleavage: Kasumi of all people after being made over by Stella. Just view here.
• Action Girl: The Winx, Ranma-chan, Shampoo, Ukyou, and recently Nodoka
  • It's a crossover between a show where everyone is a badass martial artist that has incredibly destructive moves on standby, and a Magical Girl show where Girl Power is the message of the day. Yeah, it has a few action girls.
• A Day in the Limelight: In one chapter, Kasumi and Sasuke are given focus as they are forced to look back upon their lives and wonder if how they're living right now is really worth it.
• All Your Powers Combined: Ranma's soul is actually the combined souls of the Specialists. This would also explain why he eats so much...
• Amazon Brigade
• Anime Hair
• Anime Theme Song: Different anime theme songs from choice animes are used as openers and enders in the later chapters.
• Another Dimension: Magix is separate from Earth and Alfea is a school in Magix
• Ascended Extra: Kasumi and Sasuke.
• The Atoner: A mild case for Shampoo, Ukyou, Mousse, and Sasuke when they joined Nodoka's family
• Back from the Dead: The Specialists come back in the form of Ranma.
• Badass Abnormal: Ranma was already badass before, but now with magic, the Specialists' weapons and their souls, even MORE so.
• Badass Family: Ranma and Nodoka, as well as Shampoo, Ukyou, and Mousse, who were invited to join the family.
• Badass Normal: Ranma, of course. Also Shampoo, Ukyou, and Mousse
• Balanced Harem: In one arc, the Winx agreed on a system that each would have a chance to go on a date with Ranma in order for him to get to know them better as they respect that he is his own person. Ranma is nervous about it, but doesn't object as this whole thing is very foreign to him considering how his life was before.
• Bare Your Midriff: The girls of the Winx are the MASTERS of this trope. This then spread to Ranma-chan, Shampoo, Ukyou, and Kasumi.
• Battle Harem: Ranma has the Winx Club.
• Battle in the Center of the Mind: The Winx enter Ranma's mind to purge the Neko-Ken from him. They meet the monster that represents the Neko-Ken as well as the Specialists who serve as fragments of Ranma's being and help the girls beat said monster.
• Berserk Button: NEVER hurt a Winx girl before Ranma, especially when they get caught in the crossfire from one of Ranma's enemies trying to attack him. Ryoga learned this the HARD way.
  • Any argument saying that the 4Kids version of Winx is better than RAI is this to the author HIMSELF.
• Beware the Nice Ones: Flora was calmly but uncharacteristically violent on Kuno for not only feeling her up, but for insulting Ranma.
• Big Bad: Valtor. John Castaway, the Quarrymen, and Demona in the Manhattan Arc. Shardia in the Juban Arc.
• Big Damn Heroes: A few cases.
  • Done by the phantom Specialists in Ranma's mindscape to assist the Winx from mind monsters.
  • In Manhattan, Ranma and the Winx jump in to aid Goliath's Clan from a Quarryman ambush, then later they all jump in to spring a trap by Castaway at a Quarryman rally to rescue an incapacitated Angela.
  • In Juuban, Ranma, Bloom, Stella, and Flora do this facing off the Soul Breakers the first time when coming to the Sailor Senshi's defense. Later, Ranma, Shampoo, Ukyou, and the Winx get help against a Soul Breaker army by Nodoka and Mousse.
• Big Eater: Ranma. Flora theorizes that he eats a lot in order to feed six people and keep them fed. Makes sense considering his situation.
• Big Entrance: Valtor seals off a large room with heavy stone doors to prevent anyone from getting in. It was protected from magic attacks, but he failed to take into account the abilities of Ranma, Shampoo, and Ukyou, who easily busted down said stone doors with their sheer ki-powered strength.
• Brainwashed and Crazy: Jon Talbain.
• Breaking the Fourth Wall: Mrs. Claus in the Christmas omake.
• Calling Your Attacks
• Can't Catch Up: The Trix to the Winx, Akane to anyone.
• Catgirl: Shampoo, literally. Also Felicia.
• Cat Fight: Naturally the Winx vs. the Trix, or the Trix vs. Ranma-chan/Shampoo/Ukyou.
• Changing Clothes Is a Free Action: Ranma acquires this magically after having his female form subjected to a make-over game by Stella. When Ranma is turned female, she is wearing the outfit given to her by Stella, then back in the usual kung fu attire when turned male.

• Chick Magnet: Ranma, of course.
• Christmas Episode: The Christmas Omake chapter.
• Clothing Damage: Ranma in Neko-Ken mode does this HARD on the Trix.
• Complete Monster: Demona in the Manhattan arc. She not only broke into the Eyrie Building to steal an experimental amplifying mechanism, she also took Alex hostage to make a getaway. It gets worse: not only does she do this, she DROPS him from the castle top to make sure Xanatos and Fox don't try to follow her, and for Alex simply being a human. Luckily, Owen/Puck arrived to save him from going splat on the streets below.This only makes her come-uppance all the more sweeter.
• Cool Old Lady: Headmistress Faragonda.
• Cosplay: By Zing. See Shout-Out below.
• Crystal Prison: Ranma Red and Ranma Blue of the fic "Dual Destinies" places Sailor Pluto in one to stop her from trying to destroy the Ranma Club cast when they arrived in Juban.
• Cute Monster Girl: Shampoo and Ukyou, when they are both in their were-forms.
• Dance Battler: Felicia. Musa can also count.
• Dangerously-Short Skirt: Stella, Flora, Layla, and Shampoo.
• Deal with the Devil: When Valtor broke into Light Haven where the Trix were held, they mistakenly thought he was there to break them out, but he was there to KILL them for leaving him out to dry against the Winx earlier. The Trix, after being subjected to extreme pain, beg Valtor to spare them and that they'll serve him if he does. Valtor agrees, then places failsafes on them, his mark, which will subject them to extreme pain should they harbor any thoughts of betraying him. This time, he's making sure they serve him unconditionally as he literally holds their lives in his hands.
• Determinator: Ranma. Special mentions during his fight with Valtor on Lyco where the dark wizard was electrocuting Ranma-chan while strangling her single-handedly, then Ranma-chan tries to use the Chestnut fist on him despite her arms not being long enough, which was all right because she had Sky's soul do it for her.
  • Also Faerie-Ranma-chan pulled off an amplified Hiryu Shoten Ha when trying to stop Shardia's energy blast from hitting Earth's core. She had to muster every bit of magic and ki to deflect it or else they all die.
• Disappears Into Light: Sky, Brandon, Helia, Riven, Timmy, and Nabu when they pull a Heroic Sacrifice to save their girlfriends from getting killed by Valtor in the beginning. Technically, their bodies disappeared, but not their souls...
• Distinctive Appearances: Like Ranma, the Winx are excluded from the school uniform rule at Furinkan, which make them stand out completely among the students there.
• Doorstopper: One reviewer admitted to reading the entire thing until WAY late at night. Could be seen as a testament to the quality of the writing from a rather unusual crossing over of two very dissimilar series.
• Dream Sequence: Ranma has one in the beginning where he was re-living the Specialists' memories of the Winx girls. This is what eventually got him started on his trip to Magix for the first time.
• Dual Wield: Ranma can do with with any of the Specialists' weapons.
• Elemental Punch: Ranma is a master of this, as well as Elemental Kicks. Layla can fire off huge fists of water. Bloom and Icy do this to each other in a fight.

Also Kasumi and Sasuke when invited to stay at the Saotome home where they are not treated like servants.
• Foreign Fanservice: When the Winx attend Furinkan, they pass themselves off as exchange students from different countries. They even each get their own individual fanclubs.

Bloom as an American
Stella as an Italian
Flora as a Brazilian
Musa as a Japanese/Chinese
Tecna as a British
Layla as a Kenyan

• 4Kids! Entertainment: Inverted HARD. The author has a strong hatred of 4Kids and refuses to view their version of Winx Club as canon, only using the RAI version as valid source material. In fact, the author would have at the end of each chapter a comparison of certain Winx Club scenes between both versions to show just how wussy and idiotic 4Kids are with their horrid dubbing.
• Fur Bikini: Felicia is prominent in this regard. Also Ukyou and Shampoo when they are in lycanthrope form.
• Gainaxing: The Winx girls as well as Shampoo and Ukyou during the Halloween Omake. They all cosplayed as certain female anime and game characters where their outfits are quite Stripperiffic. When they all took a pose for Ranma and asked innocently how they looked, they, uh, bounced quite a bit. Ranma passes out via nosebleed as a result. This just didn't affect only him, but the Specialists' souls in his head also experienced the same act.
• Ghost in the Machine: The souls of the Specialists all live in Ranma's mindscape and represents a side of his personality.

  • Ranma and the Winx did this with some Soul Breakers of opposing elements to efficiently fight them despite number disadvantage.
• Group Hug: The Winx to Ranma when he first arrived to Alfea and realize who he is.
• Half-Human Hybrid: Ranma is half-Faerie due to Nodoka being a Faerie, which he can exercise in his female form.
• Halloween Episode: The Halloween Omake chapter.
• Happily Married: Felicia and Jon Talbain.
• Harem Hero: Ranma is a Type 2B.
• Hello, Nurse!: The entire male student body of Furinkan when the Winx girls arrived react this way.
• Heroes Want Redheads: Ranma to Bloom.
• Heroic Sacrifice: The Specialists do this in the beginning to save their girlfriends from getting killed by an unexpectedly live Valtor. They DO get better, though.
• Hollywood Kiss: Ranma gets one with each of the Winx girls on separate occasions, though Musa's was rudely interrupted by Nabiki who tried to blackmail them, but it backfired. Stella's is an Underwater Kiss of Type A while Ranma was using the waterproof soap.
• Hot Shounen Mom: Nodoka, especially in Enchantix mode.
• Hot Teacher: Nodoka.
• Hourglass Hottie: Basically all the females.
• Human Dad Non Human Mom: Genma the lowly greedy human and Nodoka the Faerie.
• Humans Are the Real Monsters: Demona STILL feels this way despite the fact Ranma's group helped the Manhattan Clan end the prejudice of Gargoyles by exposing Castaway and the Quarrymen for the self-righteous racist dicks they are.
• "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: on Lyco, Felicia has this with her husband Jon, who had been mind-controlled to fight her. She managed to reach out to him just as he was about to end her life, begging for her to take him down quickly before he kills her. She tearfully obliges and beats the hell out of him. Fortunately, this brought Jon back out of it and he got better.
• I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Shampoo and Ukyou towards Ranma.
• I Was Having Such a Nice Dream: Stella had a dream of herself and Ranma in her happy place. They embrace and just when she was about to get a kiss from Ranma, he is suddenly replaced by Bloom who tells her to wake up.
• Implausible Fencing Powers: Ranma when using the Specialists' weapons, especially when he gets creative and merges them into something else.
• Improbable Weapon User: Shampoo, Ukyou, and Mousse.
• Innocent Fanservice Girl: Flora could be considered this. Then came the Halloween omake...
• Inside a Computer System: Ranma and Tecna's date was in the cyber world.
• Instant Fanclub: When the Winx attend Furinkan, they each get one.
• Insult to Rocks: Ranma, after getting Diamond Brandon to give a huge wedgie to Satori, throws the little snot out of a window when he refused to let him pass (in Ranma's OWN HOME no less). When Musa asked what Ranma did, his response:

Ranma: "Just tossing some useless garbage out the window. No wait, that would be an insult to garbage."

• Interspecies Romance: Felicia, a catwoman, and Jon Talbain, a werewolf, are a married couple. Also Goliath and Elisa.
• Invisibility: The Pixies are invisible to anyone who has no ties with magic. The Specialists souls in Ranma also possess this. During his and Bloom's match with Mikado and Azusa, Ranma uses his souls to fight or to buffer impact, and the announcer mentioned that something happened as if a ghost did it (which isn't far from the truth).
• Intellectual Animal: Kiko. Neko-Shampoo, Kamo-Mousse, and Kitsune-Ukyou count as well.
• Ki Attacks: Ranma to the T. Nodoka as well as she teaches a class in Alfea about it. In the Manhattan arc, Goliath and the clan learn it as well.
• Kitsune: Ukyou technically becomes this after getting cursed with Spring of Drowned Fox water, then acquires a lycanthrope form.
• Lady and Knight: More accurately Ladies and Knight. The Winx girls and Ranma.

• Laser-Guided Karma: When the Winx accompany Ranma and Nodoka to Nerima after taking down Valtor's latest attack on Magix but is not quite dead yet, several Ranmaverse characters, some of them Karma Houdinis, ultimately get theirs. Most prominent are the Golden Pair, where Mikado is cursed to have his lips sucked in whenever he tries to kiss a girl without her consent as well as cursed Azusa with a spell that will hurt her in ANY WAY when she tries to steal something not belonging to her, and Satori who after failing miserably to make Ranma's life hell like in canon, but all backfired BADLY, not only did Ranma kick his ass and ejected him from his home, he also cursed Satori to have his mind-reading ability INVERTED, so his own thoughts are being broadcasted to everyone else around him, which then in turn got him thrown into a juvenile hall when he tried to avoid a police officer. In Manhattan, the Quarrymen get disbanded after Ranma's group and the Gargoyles defeated them in a public rally, exposing them for the self-righteous racists they are. John Castaway gets crippled in a last-ditch attempt to kill Goliath, Elisa, and Angela, until Goliath managed to tap into his ki and blew him away. Demona gets her immortality turned even more hellish than it already was after she gets captured from her failed genocidal scheme to end humanity and cursed to turn to stone at night while human by day, thus preventing her from being a Gargoyle ever again. Ironically it was done by the same spell she used in City of Stone. She was later transported to Macbeth's front doorstep for him to do with as he sees fit.
• Lethal Chef: Akane nearly killed the judges with her "cuisines" in the Steel Chef tournament.
• Let's Split Up, Gang!: On Lyco, Valtor forcefully separates everyone: sending off the Winx to fight against rock golems, sending off Shampoo and Ukyou to fight other rock golems, and isolating Felicia where she was forced to fight against a mind-controlled Jon Talbain, leaving Ranma to deal with Valtor himself.
  • Happens again in the Crystal Demon invasion as Ranma and the Winx get forcefully ported away from the fight in Alfea to go against Valtor and his cronies. Bloom had to fight Icy, Stella against Darcy, and Flora against Stormy. Musa, Tecna, and Layla were separated from everyone else and each had to deal with a large group of crystal demons. Ranma was once again left alone against Valtor.
• Light Is Good: Stella, naturally. Ranma also picks up on this.
• Lions and Tigers and Humans, Oh My!: When the cast visit Lyco, a planet inhabited by anthromorphs. It is also where Felicia and Jon Talbain reside.

• Logic Bomb: Literally by Tecna. During her date with Ranma in actual cyberspace, they literally hack into Nabiki's computer and blow up her files of dirt she's got on people.
• Love Freak: Amore
• Love Triangle: Love triangle? Try a Love HEPTAGON.
• Lovely Angels: Shampoo and Ukyou.
• Made of Iron: Ranma. His life during canon had practically toughened him up more than Ryoga's Breaking Point training. Now he can take magic attacks and still keep on fighting.
• Magic Knight: Ranma is a martial artist, a Specialist, and a Faerie.
• Makeover Montage: The Winx, lead by Stella, do this on Ranma-chan. They also do this on Ukyou, Shampoo, and Kasumi.

• Mega Crossover: The main one is Ranma 1/2 and Winx Club, but it also has crossed with Darkstalkers, Gargoyles, and recently Sailor Moon.

• Mind Hive: The Specialists in Ranma. This is more of a Split Personality Merge, though.
• Mirror Match: Ranma and the Winx were forced to fight against evil clones of themselves that framed them for attacking the Sailor Senshi.
• Missing Mom: No longer missing, in fact, she revealed to Ranma that she's a Faerie and in turn he's half-Faerie.
• Mix-and-Match Weapon: Ranma can use the Specialists' weapons by themselves, but with his new magical abilities and natural talent to adapt in a fight, he can actually combine two or more into something else. Includes but not limited to Nabu's staff and Helia's cables into a weighted trichaku, a sword and staff into a glaive, the cables and a sword into a Whip Sword, and others.
• Ms. Fanservice: All the Winx Girls as well as Shampoo, Ukyou, and Kasumi.
• New Super Power: Ranma is a martial artist first and foremost. Next, he develops magical abilities due to his Faerie side. Finally, the Specialists' souls in him can be used like Stands a la Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
• Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: The Trix managed to trap the Winx in a sphere of darkness, then siced tigers composed of their respective elements after Ranma when they saw how scared he was of cats. As you know, if Ranma's phobia goes past a certain point... he then proceeded to kick their asses bad, freeing the Winx in the process.
• No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Ranma does this on Ryoga when he accidentally injures Stella with one of his bandannas. Later, Ranma does this on Satori using ALL of his souls SIMULTANEOUSLY for daring to try and turn the Winx and his mother against him.
• Odd Friendship: Shampoo and Ukyou.
• Official Couple: Ranma with ALL of the Winx.
• Oh Crap: When Ranma-chan, Shampoo, Ukyou, and the Winx are faced down by sixty hulking monsters, right after they had to fend off a misunderstood attack by the Sailor Senshi as well as evil body doubles. Needless to say, they were quite tired from two fights in a row, and now this.
  • The Golden Pair before they get hit by Ranma and Bloom's Blazing Dragon Waltz attack.
• One-Gender School: Alfea used to be a female-only school for Faeries, but then Ranma comes into the picture, becoming its first and only male student, well half anyway.
• The One Guy: Ranma's the only MALE student in Alfea. May change later, though...
• One-Man Army: Ranma is literally seen as this as he can call upon the souls of the Specialists in him to do attacks. Sometimes he can call on ALL SIX AT ONCE.
• Our Ghosts Are Different: The Specialists Souls. Ryokumon, the ghost boy that Ranma and Flora encountered on their date.
• Our Souls Are Different: Platinum Sky, Diamond Brandon, Gold Helia, Onyx Riven, Silver Timmy, and Amethyst Nabu.
• Our Werebeasts Are Different: Felicia and Jon Talbain. Also Shampoo and Ukyou once attaining were-forms.
• Paper-Thin Disguise: Ranma and the Winx think this of the Sailor Senshi, simply stating that they merely changed clothes and that's it.
• Party Scattering
• Playing with Fire: Bloom naturally. Ranma also picks up on this as well. Shampoo and Ukyou in were-form, too.
• Punctuated! For! Emphasis!:

Ranma: "Akane, just. Shut. The. Hell. UP!"

• Quirky Household: In Nodoka's house are herself and her son, along with six Faeries, two former fiancees turned lycanthropes, one former rival, and two former servants getting a fresh start on life. Whew!
• Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs: Ranma of course. His Specialists souls also know it as well. Satori BRUTALLY learned this the hard way.
• "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Kasumi of all people gives this to Nabiki and Akane when they tried to convince her to return back home.
• Recurring Extra: Upon going back to Nerima, the old street-cleaning ladle lady that had splashed Ranma and other Jusenkyo-cursed victims numerous times in canon continues to carelessly splash water everywhere. However this time, Layla would redirect the water back at her. This happens a few more times until FINALLY the ladle lady stopped splashing to let Ranma and the Winx pass in fear of getting drenched in retribution.
• Redheaded Hero: Bloom and Ranma-chan.
• Reincarnation Romance: Once the Specialists died, they reincarnated AS ONE in Ranma.
• The Reveal: Nodoka tells Ranma that he's a half Faerie from her side. Also that Faeries had assisted the Chinese Amazons against the Musk years ago, in turn naming Faeries as honorary Amazons.
• Revenge Fic: Some chapters took special care to completely bash several in-universe Karma Houdinis (Azusa and Satori being prime examples) to give proper closure.
• Ridiculously Cute Critter: Neko-Shampoo, Kitsune-Ukyou, and Kiko. Unfortunate in the latter's case as he became the target of Azusa.
• Royals Who Actually Do Something: Bloom, Stella, and Layla are princesses of their realms, but they can still kick ass. Ranma is technically a royal since housing Sky's soul, and he kicks ass many times over.
• Sentai: Ranma and the Winx had to do this during the Juban Arc.
• Shapeshifting: Wizgiz is the professor of this at Alfea. The Jusenkyo-cursed victims. Ranma, however, acquired the ability to switch between forms without water. Shampoo and Ukyou can also shapeshift from their cursed forms to their lycanthrope forms.
• She Cleans Up Nicely: Though not unattractive in the slightest, the Winx girls in their evening wear during their school dance. Ranma as well. Shampoo, Ukyou, and Kasumi after being made over by Stella.
• She's Got Legs: The Winx girls in their Enchantix forms (was one of the aspects that caused Ranma to be Distracted by the Sexy momentarily before a battle).
• Shipper on Deck: Amore.
• Shooting Gallery: Layla has one as her stand at the night festival. The targets? Chibi-figurines of Valtor, the Trix Sisters, and the Kuno siblings.
• Shout-Out: Is loaded with them, thanks to Zing.
  • Ranma's initial dream sequences of the Winx girls in the beginning as he posed as the Specialists is reminiscent to how Sam leaps into people from Quantum Leap.
  • In the Halloween Omake, the cast dress as certain people:

Zing - Jason Vorhees (Friday the 13th)

• • The music omake is a shout-out to the Dance Carnival mini-movie of One Piece.

  • Ranma fighting Valtor by using the Specialists' swords attached to Helia's cables at the hilts is like how Kratos fights in God of War.
  • The names of the leaders of the school clubs the Winx girls joined at Furinkan are the names of the women Kintaro Oe meet in Golden Boy.
  • The Steel Chef contest Shampoo and Ukyou attended in is a shout-out to Iron Chef.
  • Tecna's House of Horrors is similar to what Washu did in Tenchi Universe, and the theme was Dante's Inferno.
  • The names given to the Specialist souls are like the Stand names of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
  • The dream punishment Tecna gave to Satori is him in a famous trap of Saw.
  • Ranma had once combined the Specialists' weapons into a scythe of light and handled it like Dante uses the Death Scythe in Dante's Inferno.
• Shown Their Work: The story would always make references to past events from both shows (RAI version ONLY in the Winx Club case).
• Smug Snake: Valtor.
• Spared by the Adaptation: Valtor.
• Spoiled Brat: Akane to a T.
• Spontaneous Weapon Creation: The Winx girls are able to form weapons out of their own element.

  • Stella can make light sabers
  • Flora can make thorny whips or flower SHURIKENS
  • Tecna can make an Arm Cannon
  • Layla can make staves of water pressure

• Stripperific: The Winx's normal outfits as well as their Enchantix forms. Nodoka when in Enchantix form. Ranma-chan in Faerie mode. Shampoo, Ukyou, and Kasumi's new outfits provided by Stella.
• Taught By Experience: Ranma during his time in Nerima. It increased more from his stay at Magix as it awakened his magical potential.

• True Companions: The Winx Club and Ranma's family (minus Genma).
• Unstoppable Rage: Ranma beat the crap out of Ryoga when he accidentally hurt Stella with one of his bandannas during one of his charge-and-attack fights.
• Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Played straight when the Winx are enrolled in Furinkan. No one batted an eye when each Winx girl used her respective magic element to forcefully reject Kuno's advances towards them. Then again, this IS Nerima, where weird things just happen that magic is just given a passing glance.
• Unwanted Harem: Inverted, surprisingly since this IS Ranma we're talking about here, but with his "unique" situation, he doesn't mind the Winx girls showing him their affections.
• Victoria's Secret Compartment: Felicia is technically naked, "clad" in only a Stripperiffic Fur Bikini, but somehow she managed to hide a fist-sized jewel on her person. One can only speculate where she hid it. Hint: it was NOT in her hair...
• Volleying Insults: Ranma is a master of throwing insults, but he gets extra points from his first fight with the Trix.

Icy: (after seeing Ranma turn female) "What kind of a freak are you!?"
Ranma-chan: "At least I'm not some psychotic witch bitch with a chronic PMS problem!"
Icy: "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY!?"

• Welcome to My World: First with Ranma in Magix, then the Winx join Ranma back in Nerima to stay with his mom.

• You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Felicia of course.
