<< I think that while Akane would get all the physical strength and dexterity
 of Ranma's body, she wouldn't get any of the moves.  The moves are more
 based on mental things rather then physical prowress.  It would be
 interesting to see Akane's body do a Hiryu Shoten Ha, and completely
 destroy Ranma's body.
 
   Yeah, it would be intresting.. but like I said before, it probably
wouldn't work that well. Doing such a technique would strain her body and
maybe destroy it; and the last thing Ranma would want to do is hurt Akane.
Even though Ranma isn't hurting Akane, he wouldn't want to damage her body,
nor his! 
  I'm going to say this again. Think of it like this. If you broke your leg,
you have to sit and let it heal. By the time it's completely healed, the
muscles wouldn't be what they used to be, and even though the person knows
how to walk, he wouldn't be able to, do to his body's handicap. Know, say
this person is a gymnist, and does backflips as easily as taking a shit!
Know, when that gymnist heals from his broken leg, that person would have to
strenghten his or her body back to what it used to be. Now, put that with
Ranma and Akane's situtation. Akane is alot weaker than Ranma. Ranma might be
able to pull of the chi attacks, but they might be a tad bit weaker. But with
the more pshyical attacks, such as Chest Nut Fist, that is out of the
question. Unless Ranma trains his new body to addapt to the attack, than yes.
That is the most beautiful part of the human body, how it easily addapts. So,
after a while, maybe you will see Akane's body perform Ranma's attack after
he trains the body. It's possible, but if Akane and Ranma goes straight into
the attacks before any preparations, I do beleive Ranma would have to rely on
stragety rather than strenght, but then, hasn't he always? 
 But you really should add in the line from Face/Off. >>

  You think so? ISn't it Kewl?
