Opening Animation sequence
"Take It Easy" by Jackson Browne

"Well, I'm a-running down the road,
 tryin' to loosen my load,"

Ranma running through Nerima, in
 a manner as of the beginning of
 the first movie.

"I've got seven women on my mind,
 Four that want to own me,"

Panning shot of Kodachi, Shampoo and
 Cologne, Nodoka (Ranma's mom).

"Two that want to stone me,"
 Brief shot showing Akane and Nabiki,

"One says she's a friend of mine,"
 Brief shot of Ukyou acting kawaii.

"Take it easy, Take it easy,"

Back to Ranma, chasing Happosai and
 being chased by large crowd.

"Don't let the sound of your own
 wheels drive you crazy."

Ranma gets splashed by the little
 old lady. Ranma-chan adjusting her
 pants as she continues to run.

"Lighten up while you still can,
 Don't even try to understand,"

Ranma-chan passes Nabiki who 
 slips the little old lady 5yen
 and continues on with evil grin
 she's holding a camera with telephoto
 attachment.

"Just find a place to make your stand,
 and take it easy."

Ranma catches up with Happosai, starts
 repeatedly kicking him. Panties are
 flying everywhere.

"Well, I'm standing on a corner, 
 in Winslow, Arizona,"

Ryouga, standing on a street corner
 in a small town, hitchhiking.

"Such a fine sight to see,
 it's a girl, my lord, in a Four by Four,"

Akari on Katsunishiki passes Ryouga,
 at a high rate of speed, then begins
 slowing the massive pig down.

"Slowin' down to take a look at me,
 C'mon baby, don't say maybe,
 I've got to know if your sweet love,
 is gonna save me."

Ryouga gets up and sits behind Akari.
 Grins at camera as Big Pig and Pair
 ride off into sunset.

"We may lose and we may win,
 But we will never be here again,"

Katsunishiki passes a sign saying
 "Now leaving Winslow, come again."

"Well, I'm a-running down the road,
 trying to loosen my load,"

Ranma's fleeing the crowd, you can
 see Akane, with shinnai, in the
 forefront of said crowd. Ranma's
 holding a sign Genma-style which
 reads "I didn't do nothin'!"

"Got a world of trouble on my mind,
 Lookin' for a lover,
 that won't blow my cover,"

Ranma passes Ukyou who waves at
 Ranma-chan, then goes back into
 her restraunt. A moment later
 Tsubasa comes flying out of the
 doorway.

"She's just a little hard to find.
 Take it easy, Take it easy,"

Ranma runs over Kuno, continues down
 the road without pause.

"We oughta take it eassssyyyyy...."
