Another simple question.  Who is your favorite character in Ranma 1/2?  Why?

Hmm... This is kind of a tough question. There are so manyu cool 
characters in Ranma. I'd have to say that my fav characater these days is 
Ryouga (a change considering I used to hate him). As to why... I guess 
it's cause I can empathise with him. Shared pain is a great way of 
understanding someone... That and the fact that I love angst ridden 
characters who suffer but refuse to give up. There's something about the 
hopeless quest for an impossible victory that inspires me...
