Daisuke

Black-haired classmate who admires Akane (and Ranma even if she is really a guy). (A common background character.)

Hiroshi

Brown-haired classmate who admires Akane (and Ranma even if she is really a guy). (A common background character.)

Jhusenkyou guide

The Chinese guide who explains the tragic legends befalling the surprising number of people cursed by the springs of Jhusenkyou. He speaks Japanese as well as any Chinese person in this series, and translates for Ranma and Genma at the Nyuchezuu (Joketsuzoku) village. Wears common Chinese clothes and hat. Has a daughter named Plum, who only appears near the end of the manga.

Hikaru Gosunkugi

Hikaru Gosunkugi, spooky classmate of Ranma and Akane. Obsessed with Akane, he takes pictures of her and tries to gain her companionship. Jealous of Ranma, he nails voodoo dolls with strands of Ranma's hair to trees and posts. He becomes a spy for Kunou and Kodachi in their plots to cause trouble for Ranma. Wears unconvincing disguises when he tries to do something sneaky. Is replaced mainly by Sasuke in the anime as the "intermediate troublemaker". As a result, he appears only late in the anime. Has big dark patches under his eyes. Sometimes straps burning candles to his head. Wields a small wooden hammer and a nail.

Sasuke Sarugakure

The Kunou's ninja, who defends the Kunou mansion against intruders with strange traps (a silly, cartoony character.) Short, black haired. Always seen wearing a ninja outfit. Replaces Gosunkugi in some places in the anime as "intermediate troublemaker."

The Principal (kouchou)

The antagonistic authoritarian principal of the high school. When he returns from America with extreme Hawaiimania, he announces he has a big present for his students: a new rule that all boys must have marabouzu-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 gets only several poundings.

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. He makes crazy rules to inconvenience his students, especially Ranma, who thwarts his discipline.

Has a small palm tree on the top of his head. Deep tan. Wears sunglasses, a lei, and an aloha shirt. Sometimes rides a skateboard. Wields a pair of barikan (hair clippers) or large shears. Hands or throws exploding pineapples to unsuspecting students. Has used silly tricks like remote-control planes with sharpened propellors and trained hair-clipping lobsters.

Pansuto Tarou

One day, a monster steals the Jhusenkyou client register from the guide, and flies to Japan seeking Happousai. Happousai baptised Tarou in Niuhoomanmaorenniichuan, where a yeti riding a bull carrying a crane and an eel drowned 2500 years ago. But it's not turning into a bizarre monster that upsets Tarou... Happousai cursed him with something even worse-- he baptised him with the humiliating name "Pantyhose Tarou", and by his customs, only Happousai can change his name.

When Tarou went back to Jhusenkyou and doused himself with water from Chanyuiniichuan, his cursed form gained tentacles and the ability to shoot ink. He brought back Shannenniichuan water to try to make Happousai virtuous, but unknowingly took some Chuanshontsuniichuan water, which doubles what it splashes.

Ninomiya Hinako

The new remedial teacher. When she was a sickly child, Happousai trained her in what she thought was "gymnastics". In fact, he taught her the Happou goen-satsu "ki" absorbtion technique to take out the opposition to his panty raids. When she absorbs "ki", her body grows and she takes on the personality of a soldier.
