Character Profile: Kodachi Kuno

She is Kuno's much stranger younger sister. She's a formidable Martial Arts Rhythmic Gymnastics expert from Furinkan High's rival the St. Hebereke Girls' Academy.

Kodachi has taken to heart the principle that "all is fair in love and war". She honorably wins all her matches by default by taking out her opponents before the competition. She remorselessly uses every dirty trick at her disposal in order to win. A favorite trick of hers is to give her victim a bouquet of black roses loaded with exploding powder, to induce sleep or paralysis.

After a thwarted attack on Akane in her bedroom before their upcoming match, Ranma (chasing P-chan) accidentally knocks Kodachi off the dojo roof, then unknowingly rescues her. When she comes to and sees the hunk who "saved" her, she falls for Ranma. Living a sheltered life in a girls' school, she had given up hope of a normal relationship (in her words). However, not only is Akane in the way, but also a strong pigtailed girl who has the audacity to use her Ranma's name!
