This story is set 14 years after the end of the manga, in the Universe of
"Ukyou and Shampoo: Post Manga", in which Shampoo became a Chinese
politician while Akane an ordinary housewife. However, it can also be
taken as a stand-alone fic. It is meant to be an answer to Gary Kleppe,
who questioned me on the matter of Akane aging less gracefully than Shampoo.

Odd, I simply assumed it was a matter of Shampoo's genetics
(Cologne's well over 100 and look at the shape she's in) combined with a
training regimen that would kill 90% of Olympic Atheletes (or do you
_really_ think she'd slack off like you assume Ranma would).
Pretty good show (both this and U&S) anyway.
