Ranma Saotome is a master at martial arts. But then one day, his father, Genma, took him to Jusenkyo, the training grounds in China, to train. What they didn't know was that each spring had a curse that turns you into whatever drowned there many years ago...
Now Ranma turns into a girl when doused in cold water, while his father turns into a panda. Hot water reverses the effect.
Ranma is stubborn, but a great martial artist. He has a friend-enemy-training partner-rivals in love guy named Ryoga, a "foe", Tatewaki "Blue Thunder" Kuno, and four fiancees: Akane Tendo (the martial artist who lives under the same roof as Ranma, is closest to him, and always has arguments with him), Ukyo "Ucchan" Kuonji (the expert okonomiyaki chef, but a woman second), Shampoo (Amazon warrior who was defeated by boy Ranma in a fight, forcing her to have to marry her, according to the law of the Amazons), and Kodachi Kuno (Tatewaki's twisted sister, but she's not really a fiancee, just someone who really loves Ranma because he's gorgeous).
Ranma never backs down from a fight. He loves fights, and if he discovers a new martial arts technique, he gives it his all to learn it. If he loses a fight, he will not give up- he will keep on training.
For "girl Ranma"- Tatewaki Kuno is in love with this "pigtailed girl". None of the Kunos know who this "girl" actually is. They're kinda dense, but it's funny.
Ranma Saotome is from the manga/anime by Rumiko Takahashi, "Ranma 1/2"

Yaboku, better known as Yato, is a character in the anime, "Noragami". Although Yato's real name is Yaboku, he is first introduced as Yato and is called Yato by everyone in the story, excluding his father. It is suggested that Yato's former shinki (regalia) Sakura gave Yato the name "Yato" after he wrote out his name but Sakura misread the kanji. Fast forward to the present and toward the end of the second season/episode 36-ish, where Yato is stuck in yomi and Hiyori realizes that Yato's real name is "Yaboku".
The vast majority of "Noragami" fans call him "Yato", but it is also common to see him referred to as "Yaboku" only when describing his past self.
Yaboku is the past Yato.
