I was listening to Ben Folds Five when Nicholas Stone wrote:

   Say, I have a question for all  Ranmaites out there.  Recently during a
group get together with some fellow writers of per said fanfic anime, I laid
out an outline for 'Dark Family: Unwanted Reunions'.  After some calm

perusal,

of which the term 'calm before the storm' came to mind, we found ourselves in
quite a heated debate over who would be the best choice to knock off said

major

bad guy from the prior stories.

Ah yes. I remember this story. Really, really good! In fact, believe it or
not, I was thinking about it the other day, particularly the scene where
Ranma and Ryoga were trying to overcome the urge to kill Akane. It didn't
work, but Akane did hold her own that day.

I also remember all the stuff that happened to Kasumi. I think, with her
state of mind, she just might be so unbalanced to go after the bad guy. I
picture her being so upset that she can never regain her peace. She
probably won't be able to cook or clean ever again. Who knows, maybe she
would suddenly take up martial arts to try to regain her sense of security.

So I would vote for Kasumi, with Dr. Tofu being a close second for obvious
reasons.
