        Not to be mistaken for the rest of the Replica thread, one thing
that bothered me about the story as I woke up this morning.  If "Revenge"
was Ryoga's son then wouldn't he have noticable pig like features being the
son of a Jusenkyo cursed person.  The Herb/Mint/Lime effect?  Plus being of
Hibiki blood would give him a bad sense of direction, how about Kuroshiro
the family dog?

A gene occasionally skips a generation. Besides, the way I figure it, 
Fukushuu was SO focussed on killing Ryouga, that he would not allow anything
to stop him. As for the pig thing... Well... Let's just say I didn't put
too much stock in that (ie. I forgot!).

Nope.  Remember, it was ANIMALS being dumped in the spring of woman.
Their children were getting the attributes of the original animal.  So, if
Ryoga had piglets with a sow, they would have some human-like features.
