The youngest daughter of the Tendo Family and the only one who is training in martial arts. shes particularly admired and loved by all the boys of her school, who used to attack her every morning until shortly after Ranma arrived and beat Kuno.

She is pretty, and can be cute, but often doesn't act like a normal girl would and is quite a tom-boy. She used to have long hair, but she now wears it short and in the manga, except for when she's wearing school clothes, she wears a very varied variety of pretty clothes.

She is very good at fashion and has a knack of causing boy's to fall in love with her, not that she wants it. She's also good at skating and seemingly good at school, she got 86 on a test and Ms. Hinako has referred to her as her best student. She is also good at sports - for example, she is the captain of the volley ball team.

She's managed to boil water and actually cooked a normal tasting curry and some tasty rice with help of Spring of Life water, but apart from that, her cooking is horrible.
