Why?  I would *not* exclude Nabiki, I'd say she's the one who was missed
first time around then added as number six.

got eight warriors here.  Ranma, Ryouga, Mousse, Ukyou, Shampoo,
Tatewaki, Kodachi, and Akane.  Which two are getting excluded?

Akane, Tatewaki, and Kodachi is my bet.

Actually we _know_ Akane is one of them because the Eddings crew heard
the sound when she pulled out her mallet.  We know Ranma, Ryoga, Mousse,
and Akane for sure.  Ranma, Ryoga, and Mousse because there's no other
way to describe their special techniques (Ranma with the Hiryu Shoten Ha
and Moko Takabisha, Ryoga with the Bukusai Tenketsu and Shi Shi
Hokoudan, and Mousse with all those weapons coming out of nowhere).  I'd
guess Ukyo and Kasumi as ones without Sorcery as neither of them have
demonstrated any sort of special abilities in the past.  The question is
still out on Shampoo, Takewaki, and Kodachi since:
Shampoo is the decendant of a Sorceress (Cologne)
Takewaki has shown some evidence of special abilities (cutting through
trees and walls with a _bokken_ is a fairly impressive feat)
Kodachi has also show some evidence of special abilities (where _does_
she hide all those weapons)
My question is how are they going to keep the girls from trying to kill
each other once they find out about their powers, and how are they going
to keep Kuno and Kodachi from willing people (namely Ranma and
onna-Ranma respectively) out of existance (assuming they're the ones
with power).
