This concludes Tales of Ranma & Nabiki 8.
Ahhhh!!!
This was GREAT! Ah! Romance! Heartbreak! Intrigue! Suspense(as in
who will Ranma end up marrying?)
My main problem with this chapter is that Ranma isn't acting very
Ranma-ish, in my opinion. Is it a big problem? Anybody see any ways to
correct it other than changing the concept behind the series?
No, I think he's acting perfectly Ranma-ish. He asks a friend for help
(ukyou), gets gutsy and asks Nabiki to marry him, then he's pissed as
hell when she refuses...and then when he finds out she hates him he
runs out(to ukyou's instead of under his favorite bridge => ) in
a huff.
If anything was strange, I felt as though Ranma didn't give very
much thought to his other possible fiancée, Akane...what, did
he just totally forget about her? In fact, Akane never once ran
through his mind once...
I don't think he wants to think about anymore fiancees anymore--finding
out someone you love hates you kinda would turn me off to asking another
fiancee--even one that admitted that she loved me.
