Neko-ken "cat punch"
A cat style martial arts technique Genma attempted to train Ranma in by wrapping him in fish paste cake and throwing him in a pit of starving cats, causing Ranma's ailurophobia. Appearance: Nettouhen episode 2. Volume 5 part 2.

Mouko rakuchi-sei "fierce tiger falling down strength"

("I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."), emulating the posture of a tiger fallen from a cliff. Appearance: Nettouhen episode 49. Volume 13 part 4.

"Saotome school underhanded trick secret techniques"

Maken doukoku-ha "demon dog wailing defeat"
A Saotome school secret technique that Genma teaches Ranma to deal with the shishi houkoudan. First, back out of "ki" projection range.

Yamasen-ken "old as the hills punch"
A Saotome school technique used by Kumon Ryuu. He yells "Don't move" and then strikes while the opponent is surprised. Ryuu is searching for the Umisen-ken, with which the Yamasen-kan is paired. The basic principle of the yamasen-kan and umisen-kan techniques is that the body is like a house. The head is the attic, the chest is the entranceway, the arms are the gates, the back is the back door, and the legs are the stilts.
