Excuse me...but exactly how many comedies can YOU read without wanting to
thow up?  There's only so many storylines possible with comedies and with
Ranma, they've pretty much been all used up...some OVER-used....

Not necessarily so, Aaron.....  There's ALWAYS room for comedies, because

the world itself is TOO serious, and a lot of sorrow and gloom is out there.
That's why comedies help bring out the laughter in us and at least for a
while, a smile on our faces.  You must be a pretty depressing person to
write such a fanfic....

I take it back...I guess you CAN read a lot of comedies wihtout throwing
up....personally, I HATED UY...nothing personal of course, but I still hated
it...

I didn't think nothing much of Ranma either, but as I read the manga, I
understood the jokes and some of the semi-serious stories that are a
Takahashi trademark.
UY is possibly her greatest acheivement and her most famous work, and I
enjoy her multi-puns, and the sexual jokes that went with the stories...They
were geared for the High School/ Young Adult person... It is also the
largest show she ever produced.  Manga-wise, Ranma as of this date is on the
37th volume of the "Tankoban" series....  UY, only 34....  Yet, the
popularity of UY is still strong after 10 years of being finished as a TV
series.....

great feedback on it!!
