Hmm I've noticed something, in episode 1 when Akane and Ranma-chan are 
sparring, Ranma manages to avoid every single blow with little or no 
difficulty. So why does Akane hit him so easily with a slap, or a stool, 
etc.? Maybe his martial arts instincts aren't as sharp as they should be? :)

because he's not really trying to.  maybe he wants to give her the satisfaction
of smacking him so she won't smack him later.
(one ranma ep shows ranma getting kicked into the sky by soun, for instance.)
