Hikaru Gosunkugi

A shy classmate of Ranma and Akane, this timid student harbors a deep, unspoken crush on Akane. Driven by intense jealousy toward rivals like Ryoga and Kuno, he frequently attempts sneaky, misguided schemes to eliminate his competition and win her affection. However, his clumsy plots almost always backfire, leaving him largely unnoticed by his peers. Despite his secret ambitions to finally secure a moment with his crush, he remains a nearly invisible presence in the lives of his classmates.
