I know stories featuring the children of the Ranma 1/2 cast have been done
before, but has anyone put the following slant on one:

Have three seperate realities where Ranma marries Akane, Ukyo, and Shampoo
respectively, and have Ranma's children from the three realities somehow
meet up (suggestions as to how this could happen, anyone?) Ranma's children
may or may not return to the time of the regular Ranma continuity (I haven't
fleshed out the details yet).

I can think of two series right off the bat that have that plot. One is
converging series and the other Im not sure of but involves three children
of Ranma's and the three girls being sucked through a magic vortex into the
Main stream Ranma verse.

Now both of these stories feature the children coming to a world where
Ranma and the girls are still teenagers.
I have not seen one where they meet and their parents are still adults.


Also, tell me what you think of my ideas for Ranma's children.

       KENTO and KAEDE: Ranma and Akane's children, twins.  Unlike his
parents, Kento tends to be quiet and calm, concentrating on actions rather
than talking - except when his twin sister is around, with whom he argues
constantly.  OTOH, Kaede has inherited Ranma's arrogance and 
overconfidence, along with Akane's bad temper!  As a side effect of 
Ranma's curse, the twins take on each other's appearance when splashed with
cold water.
Sounds interesting. But it causes conflict with your idea of them
constantly arguing. they would be closer in some ways then Identicical
twins. I imagin their intire life was one long game of fool the adults.

Also if they had this curse from childhood they more than likley would not
have a gender preference they would be equally comfortable as a boy or a girl.




       TEPPEI: Ranma and Ukyo's son.  I haven't really decided much about
what he'll be like - any suggestions here?

Only one suggestion and that is that if the others have a curse related to
their parents he would as well.

       SHABON: Daughter of Ranma and Shampoo.  Slightly airheaded, but not
as badly as many of the characters we see in anime.  As a side-effect of
Shampoo's Jusenkyo curse, she has cat ears and a tail, is very agile, and
likes to sit in trees (fortunately for Ranma, he's gotten over his fear of
cats in this reality).  Carries a naginata (a staff with a blade on the end,
fot those of you who don't know what that is). 

Well I do love cat girls so I'd have to say I like this. Only thing is I
hate seeing
cat girls with just a furry tale and ears. It seems like a jigsaw puzzle
with the 
wrong pieces attached. If she has a furry tale then at the very least she
should have a strip of fur from her head down her spine. At the most she
should have a soft downy coat over her entire body.
