Well this is my final offer on picking up on the Anime/Star Wars

I probably will never find time to write it. Some ideas are stolen but
that was 1000-2000 messages back in my mailbox so I have no idea who to
credit.
Anime Wars
Characters:
Luke Skywalker: Ranma
Princess Leia: Ranma (^_^)
Darth Vader: Genma (did I get the name right? Anyway, the panda.)
Han Solo: Akane (pretending to be a man)
If you were going to do this, I would suggest Ryouga as Solo, and then
use characters from the Timothy Zahn books and make Akane=Mara Jade.
(although Kodachi might work for Jade, also... YOU WILL KILL LUKE
SKYWALKER and all that)
So... if Genma is Vader I assume Happosai is the Emperor? *shudder*
Voices: C-3P0 (Luna)
R2-D2 (himself - it's not really a voice, anyway)
Chewbacca - I have no idea :) Ideas?
Maybe this should be Ryouga.. he is supposed to by super-strong, after all.
And he does have the temper for it.
But what of Lando? I guess he'd just have to be Kunou, wouldn't he?
More characters: Ewoks (Undecided)
Jabba the Hutt - I'm running out of Ranma characters :)
How about Q. Beryl, as Jabbette the Hutt?
Sorry I never saw Ranma and I'm rusty :)
How about that assassin guy - forget the name, I figure Shampoo will do
:)
I hope you're referring to Greedo and not Boba Fett.
I don't think there's anyone on the cast smart enough to be Boba Fett...
'cept maybe Cologne.
Of course, you could make Nabiki Leia... and Soun could be the late,
great Bail Organa. I think Nabiki is the closest to Leia of any of the
characters in personalilty (if you will remember, in the first movie,
Leia was well... a female canine at times?)
So like I said I'm running out of characters that I know well. I'm no
Ranma expert :) My gut was to put Makoto (Sailor Jupiter) as Princess
Leia. Better than Haruka by my thinking :)
So... is this idea totally over the cliff, or what? When I read about
the possibilities, such as "Anime Wars: The Panda Strikes Back", I was
left rolling with laughter. How about you?
