Wait a second, this is Fanfic ML, not the Ranma ML.  Are you sure 
this in the right place?  At any rate, I usuall don't have too much 
of a problem with dubs, but I prefer the subs much better.  I think 
Viz really didn't do so well with the songs (Equal Romance, Red 
Shoe Sunday, and a few more)  Well... Ranma-chan's voice is kind of 
irrating at times, I suppose.  Still, I think most of the Japanese 
voice actors are much better than the English counterparts.

	Wait a minute tough guy, no one said this was just the plain, 
that's it, nothing other than, fanfic ML. I can almost guarantee 
you that Ranma makes up more than 75% of the fanfics going through 
here.   But thats not the point.  Yes you are definitly right about 
the songs.  They could use some work (double overtime), but the 
voices aren't that bad.  They will never be as good as the Japanese 
voices, but they are a hell of a lot better than the voices for say 
Macross Plus or Tank Police (both are great in Japanese though).  
Some of you authors should consider this when writing some of your 
fics but if you include japanese words be sure to include a 
translation some where, some of us haven't had the privelage of 
three years in a Japanese class (although thats not what it takes 
to learn Japanese).

	Oh and by the way my name is not MICHAEL O'BYRNE it is SEAN  
O'BYRNE a lot of you keep replying to me for that name.
