Even my boyfriend can't explain it.   He
collects Ranma religously yet thinks Ranma is a jerk  and Akane is to good
for any of the male characters of the series.

Well Akane, just make sure he keeps the self-insertion to himself.
(Usually it's the Ukyou fanboys who wouldn't want their obsessive
cross-dressing violent goddess soiled by the touch of any of her
transvestite boyfriends.  "When I get to the so-called Ranmaverse,
Ukyou-chan will know her true master, er boyfriend!")

I love it because of the humor.
In short I like the entire cast of Ranma.  Each builds off of the other...

Yes, that's Rumiko, but's she's done better.

Hint: Rumiko thinks that martial arts are funny, in the Jackie Chan
style. (And Ninja are clowns)

If you take any of the violence seriously, you are losing touch with the
source material and should switch from the anime to the manga.
