Shampoo

Later, Ranma (male) accidentally defeated Shampoo. According to the laws of her tribe, an Amazon must marry the man who defeats her. This made Ranma her fiancé.

When Shampoo discovered that male Ranma and the girl she had previously defeated were the same person, her relationship with him became even more complicated.
