Here's a bit of information I got off the ranma ML that could give some
insight into
Ranma becoming Akane when doused to get revenge in the future episodes of
'Aftermath...'

    What do you think this is, Ranma 2096? :) 
    
    Let me be abousolutely clear here, the Jusenkyo Springs will not, 
repeat, NOT be used in this fanfic. Japan's dangerous enough without 
sending anybody to China.

    Aftermath Ukyou: Amen to that!
