Akane-Ryoga Relationship

Ryoga Hibiki developed a romantic interest in Akane Tendo when she took his cursed form as a pet (P-Chan). From that piont forward he was Ranma's rival for Akane's affection.

Ryoga has a hard time confessing his love for Akane, but whenever he gets enough courage Ranma always interrupts.

By the end of the manga his situation became more complicated when he became involved in a relationship with Akari Unryu. Since meeting Akari, Ryoga has struggled with which girl he wants to pursue.

There is no evidence that Akane sees Ryoga as anything more than a friend, despite Ryoga's best efforts to win her romantic affection.
