Y'know, getting into Ranma through fanfic can be dangerous...

I've been reading Ranma fanfiction for about 6 months now, 
and I've read as far as the 5 Viz graphic novels in America.
Therefore, my entire perception has stemmed from what I
*read*.

I finally scrape together enough money to get a video - 
TV series, Vol. 1.

And I learn that I've been mispronouncing names for six
months now.  Hard G?  3 syllables?

It's a hard habit to break.  I'll probably always say 
"Ah-kain", because I read it that way.  "Jenma", too.

I feel so cheap and used.  Oh, well.  Sorry if this is
pointless, but I needed to work it out.  Back to the fanfic.
