Since this thread caught my attention, i'll add my two bits to it. 

Ranma uses the Nabban Mirror to find a cure but instead found himself
in the Menji era. Meets Himura Kenshin... yata yata yata.. the end.

Much better ne?

Yep. Man, the plot devices you could have with this crossover....
Imagine, Sanosuke accidentally bumping into a pretty red-headed girl and

falling

for her. Ranma-chan taunting Kaori on how she, Ranma, is the sexier of

the
two.

Or Yahiko becoming a man.....meaning he accidentally sees Ranma-chan naked

:) 

The cool part about this is that Ranma is also very skilled with weapons

and

would probably give Kenshin a run for his money. 

Now I wonder....who would actually win between the two? Kenshin simply

kicks

ass. Ranma could probably kick more ass. The coolest part is that both

of 'em

are extremely bright and would adapt to the other one's technique.

Ranma took a deep breath. "Okay, that sheathed sword stance of his is

deathblow

attack. Luckily I managed to dodge it at that last moment. Damn, the blade
didn't even touch me yet the shear air pressure from his attack bruised

me,"

Kenshin took a deep breath. "I have to remain from afar, otherwise, his

fighting

skill would overwhelm me. However, if he stays away, I can't get in close

to

finish him off. And damn, how the hell I managed to avoid those super

fast

punches, I do not know...."

It's funny that you wrote something like this. I've been thinkin' of

writin' a

Kenshin/Ranma crossover myself....as part of an ongoing series, my 'Just

won't

die' in case anyone was wonderin'.....

I think most Ranma fans who see the Kenshin series are going to be tempted
to do a crossover.

For my suggestion, it would be based around that magic sword episode, the
one that Kuno got that granted him three wishes.

In an alternative version of the Manga, he would wish that Akane Tendo,
and
the Pig Tailed girl could see him in combat against the greastest swordsman
of all time, and the three of them get dumped in front of the Kenshin cast
out of a sliders type whirlwind.

Several humorous possibilities arise, Sanosuke decides there visitiors
are
Foxes.

Kuno declines to belive that this short grown laundry maid is in truth
the
swordsman he claims,and runs off in search of the real thing. Ranma and
Akane of course can't get home until Kenshin actually fights Kuno. good
thing the wish did not say anything about Kuno winning.

  <snip>

  ::snicker::    When I read this, I couldn't help imagining the scene if Kuno
somehow runs into Saitoh.  ^_^;   Kuno might have some interestingly
derogatory things to stay about 'mere policemen'... that is, if he even
recognizes the uniform (not a given!).  And although Saitoh is very cool-
headed, he definitely does NOT suffer fools gladly... if at all.

  And then I picture Ranma & Co and the Kenshin Gumi finding out... they're
forced to go stampeding off to rescue Kuno's moronic hide so he'll stay alive
long enough to fight Kenshin.  ^_-

  Just some thoughts as I struggle through the next part of my own Rurouni
Kenshin story "That Which Lingers"....
