What happened to episodes 2 - 5, some might ask, if they >cared, and they
would rightly be confused.  TO be blunt, 2-5 is my own >version of the
events of the manga, with little enough difference from >the original to
be considered true fanfiction.  I only wrote it to get >into a writing
style, and to let the poor unfortunate souls who had never >seen the
Skating pair episodes to know where this Mikado guy came >from.  :)  The
only thing different are cut scenes to Mikado and co, as >opposed to Ranma
and co.  ^_^  If you truly want to read those, you can >check out my web

       I cheaked the stories, another thing you did was change the chronology
so that the events took place at the time the Anime episode aired, rather than
before Shampoo's initial arival like it was supposed to.  This had the
effect of
artificially improving the skill of the Golden Pair since the Ranma who had
faced Colougne and learned the Tenshin Amaguriken was dramatically faster and
stronger than the one who had faced the golden pair by official
chronology.  Oh,
and Mikado's eyes were open and staring in the manga, it WAS him who got
hit 518
times.
       Just a few comments.

(!!)  Waitaminnit!

As Zen remembers the anime chronology, Shampoo shows up, Ranma makes her
think that he is really a girl, and Shampoo leaves... Then there is the
episode set with the Golden Pair, and Cologne and the chestnut fist
technique come *afterwards*...  Yah, Ranma hit Mikado over 500 times, and
pretty darned fast, but that was NOT the Tenshin Amaguriken.
