It feels a bit awkward at times, though - I think you
got too caught up in the chaos bits to let us get an actual sense for how
the characters were really taking it. It probably would have been helped
if you'd lessened the number of random characters running around (I think
Ryouga, Nabiki and Kasumi added little to the story, for instance, except
to exaggerate the chaotic atmosphere) and gone more into depth on what was
going on inside the heads of the remaining characters.

Takahashi only used them for supporting characters most of the time anyway.
Besides, 'chaos' is the watchword in Ranma 1/2! :)

True, though I still think you went a little overboard.  Besides, I'm just
a sucker for in-depth character exploration fics, I guess. ;-)  I still
think you could get enough chaos in to be funny with fewer characters and
get into the real reactions a bit more...
