Outta Control



Outta Control, or Ranma ½ Outta Control is the fouth season of the series. It aired from October 5, 1990 - April 19, 1991 and consists of 24 episdoes.

The opening theme of this season is "No Way! Part 2" (絶対! Part 2 Zettai! Pāto Tsū) by Yoshie Hayasaka while the closing theme is "Friends" (フレンズ Furenzu) by YAWMIN. In Japan, "No Way! Part 2" was used as the opening theme for the 46th to the 69th Nettōhen episodes and "Friends" concludes each of the 55th to the 69th Nettōhen episodes. In the first eight episodes of this season, "Friends" is mislabeled as another song, "Present" (プレゼント Purezento) by Tokyo Shōnen, before it was corrected. "Present" was never actually heard in the English dub.

An interesting fact is the insertion of the 51st Nettōhen episode, "Ukyo's Skirt! The Great Girly-Girl Gambit," into the previous season, Hard Battle, and the inclusion of the 72nd Nettōhen episode, "Ling-Ling & Lung-Lung Strike Back!," into this season. The 71st and 73rd Nettōhen episodes are among the fifth season of English dub episodes known in as Ranma ½: Martial Mayhem.
