There's LOTS of opinions on who in the Ranma 1/2 cast would or should
end up with whom.

Some people like the Shampoo/Mousse match. Personally I think there'd be
a snowball's chance of her agreeing to marry him, and if it did happen,
the results would make "Bitter End" look like a tea party. I happen to
think there's a *much* better match for Mousse.

Who? Odette?

I'm not a big believer in Kasumi/Tofu either; I'm planning a spamfic
that shows how this matchup would go wrong.

Kuno/Nabiki? Not after I've just had breakfast, thank you. ;-)

Rather than arguing these things, we ought to be writing fics about
them. Those who like the idea of relationship X/Y, write a fic showing
how it would happen and why it would be good. Those who don't, write a
fic showing what would go wrong, or a parody of someone else's fic in
which it does work.

Amen.

PS.  So who wins? Takahashi-sama, of course. ^_^
