Akane has never shown any real interest in any men other than Dr. Tofu

drug in the first place?

This Akane is a control freak, not a nymphomaniac.

So she's a sadist who wants them attracted to her so she can beat them
off and they have to keep coming back? Makes sense, I guess...

possessiveness, when she found out she wasn't getting Tofu? And why did
she just kick Kuno away all the time, instead of using him? "Kuno, you'd
like to do a favor for little old me, wouldn't you? There's this girl
named Shampoo who's being a bother."

Why bother?  She's confident that Shampoo won't matter in the long run,

She is? Why does she get jealous of Shamps, then?

and Kunou would likely screw things up, anyways.

Depends on what she asked him to do. He'd be quite capable of going down
to the Nekohanten and causing lots of property damage, for example. And
if Kuno's a bad example, there's always Ryoga and a whole bunch of
others.
