ice from the freezer.  Lastly, he went to the sink and covered the ice
with water.  As an afterthought he dug out another glass for himself and
repeated the ritual.  With the two dripping glasses in hand, he went

I assume that this is leading up to the inevitable spill.  Why is Ranma
getting two large glasses of water?  Aiko didn't even ask for water.  I
would think that Ranma, especially the more thoughful Ranma pictured here,
would be wary of being around cold water when meeting someone new.  Why
doesn't he make tea?
