2. Ranma kissed by OTHER people: how many? I can only think of two:
        1. Anime & Manga: Shampoo's 2nd kiss of death (to the boy Ranma).

  Huh?  She doesn't give boy Ranma the KoD.  She gives it to onna-Ranma 
when they're at the village.  When Shampoo later shows up at the Tendo's and 
Ranma 'defeats' her, she glomps him, but I don't think she kisses him 
there.  (all that's Manga, btw)

She does.  Viz GN, vol. 3, p. 120, Shampoo plants a big one right on
Ranma's lips, right after she woke up from being defeated.  (dammit...
the binding on my vol. 3 is falling apart!)


3. Ryouga kisses: has he ever been? even by Ranma in girl-form-disguised as
a joke (or like in the koi-fishing-rod story?

  I haven't seen or read it, but from reading the manga synopses, I think 
Ryoga is kissed by onna-Ranma (which is, I believe, in the koi-rod 
story).  This made Ryoga very upset, because he wanted his first kiss to 
be with a _girl_ (very understandable!).
  If I'm wrong here, somebody _please_ correct me!  Kev? Chris?

Another time I'm aware of: p. 15, tankobon #35.  Mirror-image onna-Ranma
kisses Ryouga.  This upsets him, because he was waiting for Akari, who
he was going to kiss, and it was going to be his first kiss, according
to him (I guess his mind blotted out the trauma of kissing Ranma before).
