What did I think?
Hmmm...
It was a great idea, and it was extremely well-written mechanically, but
the first-half was a grocery list of the future relationships of Ranma
(which I've seen done very similarly very often), and wasn't that
interesting, IMHO.

I liked the second half more, but I think it could have been
done better.  You tried to make it seem like part of a normal night's
conversation, which didn't quite fit, mainly because embarassing sex was
the only thing you showed them talking about all night.  So I'd say either
emphasize the lemon, and make it a surreal story about nymphomaniacs, or
emphasize the non-lemon, making it more like a real reunion, and see how
the characters viewed what happened in the series in retrospect.  ("Poro
Poro Ranma?"  That might be going too far ^_^.) 

I think door #2 would probably be more interesting, but that's just
my ideas, and there's lots of things you could do.  However it goes, I'll
be looking forward to seeing what you do with this.
