Name: Saotome Nodoka, Obaa-san (to the Tendou sisters).

Curse? Nope.

First Appearance: Manga volume 22

History:Saotome Nodoka is the mother of Saotome Ranma, who stayed at home while Genma took Ranma on their training trip. She is very focused on making sure that Ranma is manly, because an agreement was signed by both Ranma (yes, baby Ranma ^-^) and Genma that Ranma will grow up to be manly, or committ seppuku.
