I totally disagree with your ratings.  First, who is a ten?  Cologne?  
Ok, then make Ayuki a nine.  Then Ranma an eight.  Ryoga can be a seven.
Keiko, seven or eight, I dunno how good you want her to be.  (I'd go for
seven.) Midori can be a six.  Ukyou... five, Akane... four, Soun...  four
maybe three,  Kodachi is damn good, maybe a six.  Tatewaki, a three.  (he's
not THAT bad.)  Oh!  And the Inspector, at least a five.  

Please remember!  This is just how *I* would rate them.  Also, among the
unrated yet, Happosai... ten, (He is GOOD!), Genma... eight,  (Also damn
good), Shampoo... six, Mousse, six.

There is a reason why I would move them way up the scale.  You don't want the
other martial artists in the country to be better than they are.  They are
supposed to be the best in the country.  Shampoo is the BEST of the Amazons,
and Ranma can destroy her with ease, and you only give him a five?  

Unless the scale was from 1 to 5 (which is what I heavily suspected).  At 
first, I thought the three for the inspector was rather low as well, but when I 
read the other scores, I figured that the scores was actually out 5, not 10.
