Ranma is more sensitive to rejection than he lets on. The only reason he teases Akane so much is usually in response to misunderstandings she has, he loves her in reality, they're both just young and immature.

Just remembered that Shinnosuke has joined the Nerima polycule(good for him!).

Akane, how did it started?

So just a fun little detail about Ranma getting slapped by Akane during his little fight with Shinnosuke.

While charging Shinnosuke and preparing to pummel him, he uses a low guard boxing stance, a fighting style that trades away all defensive capacity for maximized offense as it makes it easier to punch as hard as you can while having more freedom in how you do it.

The downside of the move, as Akane so nicely illustrates here by stopping Ranma's mometum dead by slapping him, is that it leaves the head completely open to any and all attacks.

It's a fun little detail that is so easy to miss, and yet ties in so much to how Ranma is feeling, and yet also actual martial arts.

Ranma was putting his entire self and drive into this pretty incosequential little bout, and gave up any and all defences to go all in... And Akane just shatters his entire self with one blow as a result.
