  I think you need to explain why Nodoka can move in.  What is the opinion
of the producers of the show? I don't see Nodoka's presence as contributing
to the youth appeal.  What are the opinions of the minor deities who
selected the group? If Nodoka can move in, then why not any of Ranma's
fiancees, or Lum, or Mihoshi?  (By the way, what happened to the FFML
Mihoshi?)  Amazons in formfitting dresses, alien princesses in bikinis, or
ditzy space blondes would each be more likely to improve viewer ratings, at
least among men. 

They only had one room left...

  Nothing Washuu couldn't take care of. But why can Nodoka just simply move
in?  That would require producers' consent. 

Oh, I'm sure they wouldn't mind if Nodoka just stayed for a little
while... of course, sooner or later they WOULD want to talk to her, I
suppose.  But as long as she doesn't plan on being permanent it shouldn't
be a problem.

This little dilema easily fixed by a small scene write-in.
I'll leave it to Hitomi for that.
