Absolute Anime

The antagonistic authoritarian high school principal with Hawaii-mania. He makes crazy rules to inconvenience his students, especially Ranma, who thwarts his discipline.

When he returns from America, he announces he has a big present for his students: a new rule that all boys must have marabozu-style shaved heads and all girls have very short okappa haircuts... unless the students get a coconut containing an exemption slip within three days. He goes to extreme lengths in his attempts to cut Ranma's pigtail and make an example of him, but only gets pounded.

In the manga, the students force him to reveal that although he doesn't remember where that coconut with the exemption slip is, he tattooed directions to it on the shaved head of his long lost son Tatewaki, who he left behind 3 years ago. In the TV series, the rediscovery of their relationship comes later.
