Ranma Gives Up?!

Ranma ritaia!? (乱馬リタイヤ!?) is the 162nd chapter of the manga and the fifth chapter of the Hot Springs Obstacle Course Race Arc.

Ranma and Akane argue while sinking into the sands. Mousse and Shampoo take this opportunity to pass them up as do Ryoga and Ukyo. Ranma uses one of the chains to get Ryoga to pull them out of the sand, but it does not quite work out. He and Akane begin to sink even further, and Ranma realizes there is no way he can possible save Akane from smothering beneath the sand.
