Seen this before, but what the hey.

"Seen it before"?  As in "It's been done before"?

Sure, it's been done before.  Heck, ShadowStalker's inspiration for this
WAS one of Mr. Beaubein's unfinished works, after all...

It really doesn't matter if something's been done before, and a work
certainly can't be dismissed on simply these grounds.  It's how a work
is done that's important.  (Excuse me for iterating the perfectly obvious
here...)

I like how Kinuko is sorta conflated with Ukyou in Ranma's dream.  Both 
of them have the problem of having everything they know suddenly 
changing, as though coming in at the middle of the wrong movie...

Only after reading part three, I hardly find myself sympathizing with
Kinuko the way I usually sympathize with Ukyou.

So far, part four looks pretty good, albeit a tad ecchi at times.  I'm
really interested in seeing how the rest of this story turns out.

Good luck and keep writing!
