Well, I'm currently planning a Prisoner 1/2 story.
Sounds like an immense amount of fun, espically in the number 2 category.
And by that I don't mean using obvious people like Nabiki or Principal
Kuno. No, it'd be more fun using Kasumi, Nadoka, Tenchi, Ami, or Kasuga
for number 2's. They don't seem like the number 2 type, which adds to
the fun of the situation...:)
It depends on which episodes:
Nabiki would be good as the #2 from Hammer into Anvil.
I dunno; they have a lot of things in common -- overconfidence,
calculating manner, a certain ruthlessness -- but they just don't feel
that much like similar personality types. I could see her as the
scientist in "A,B,C," perhaps.
Kasumi as the #2 from Many Happy Returns
That might work. :) Though I'd prefer to see her as a No. 2 all her own
style.
Hmmm. Or perhaps the No. 2 from "Free for All"? The one at the end? No,
come to think of it, Shampoo might be better for that role. ;>
Perhaps Ryouga as the Leo Kern #2 :)
Not hardly. <wry g> Actually, Genma might be a better choice -- he isn't
nearly as clever as Kern was, which is a problem, and neither he nor
Ryoga have the suave personality -- but at least Genma has the bluff good
humor, and the sense of controlling/manipulation.
Hmm. Anyone you can see as the No. 2 from "A,B,C"? Nodoka would work as
the No. 2 in "Dance of the Dead," perhaps...
I forget -- did I ever give you a copy of the Romana 'n Dave stories? I
loved who they pulled in as No. 2 for the Prisoner spoof they did in that
series...
