play" story arc. While there is a japanese variant called Suiken, I believe
that it is more likely that the chinese form is used, especially since he
refers to it as "drunk-fu" rather than Suiken. In addition to this, a great

her-self, and hence, privvy to many of the more secret techniques of 
the rarer schools of Kung fu such as Dim Mak and other "internal" 

Umm... sorry, but the Viz version stuffed up your assumption on that one.
^^;;;

Ranma calls it 'suiken' in the manga ... So one would assume that it IS
suiken ... (Viz also called the 'neko-ken' something like 'cat-fu' didn't
they? Going by Viz names is bad for something like this...)

Kun-chan...
