Who is more Akane in the new universe, Ranko or Akane?  Until this point,
as far as I can tell, Ranko is Ranma's true love.  He just doesn't know it
yet.

Although that was not an intention of mine when I started writing this
story, it has turned out that Ranko has become some sort of Pseudo-Akane for
Ranma to relate (no pun intended) to.  The girls would probably act like
twin sisters, should they be allowed to develop a friendship.

Ranma's true love will be a confusing item for him to sort out.  Ranko's a
beautiful girl who's kind to him and treats him with respect.  Akane's a
beautiful girl with an extended history with Ranma (so to speak).  Kinuko's
a beautiful girl who's got her own history with Ranma and is willing to go
all the way with him at the drop of a hat.

And since beauty is constant among all three, Ranma will have to look for
other things that distinguish each woman from the others, and judge from that.

But I should point out that more women are on the way.  <evil grin>  His
life won't be getting any easier...
