Ranma's insensitive father. Long ago he arranged with his closest friend, Soun Tendo, that their children would marry. While training Ranma at the remote Chinese training ground Jusenkyou, Ranma kicked him into Shonmaoniichuan where a panda drowned 2000 years ago. Genma emerged as a panda, and as the guide explained the spring's curse, still went on to whack Ranma into Nyanniichuan. Unlike Ranma, he doesn't have much trouble with his curse, and becomes quite accustomed to living as a panda (comforting himself with human dignity even as he sips tea and plays shogi with Soun). Since he can't speak as a panda, he uses wooden signs to communicate.
