Here's some comments I have about the story. The following is regarding the
characterization of some of the characters, mostly Kasumi:

This story takes place immediately after Ranma fights Cologne on the beach
                                                                    ^^^^^
Beach? Its a winter resort with skiing and outdoor baths and stuff, not a beach
:P

	It was at the beach in the Manga, it was changed to a winter resort in 
the Anime.

Where was Ukyou during all of this? She wasn't mentioned once in all these
chapters. She should be trying to comfort Ranma, being the good friend (and
best cooking/looking/cutest/kindest fiancee he has :). 

	The entire phoenix pill storyline took place a while before Ukyo arived. 
 Hmm, I've been wondering does she ever actually start acting like a friend to 
Ranma rather than maintaining the cute and friendly fiance act?  (From the way 
people talk I'm assuming she does but I haven't seen it in what's been 
translated so far.)
