Your story simply does not have the variety or comedy potential of RpM's
work, simply because you have fixed it so all the characters are either
cross-dressers or perverts. All the jokes have already been told. There

is

nothing original, in my mind, to make me want to read more of the series.

I actually found this "season" MORE entertaining than the first. While the
concept was very appealing, the execution wasn't quite up to my hopes.
Specifically, in that there were too many lead characters with too much
baggage in the first season. Ranma's primary concernes were about his
girlfriends, Kyosuke's primary concern was about Madoka and Hikaru, and you
got the sense each of the various stories were vying for dominance. I felt
that the characters didn't spend enough time interacting with each other.
Though their were some notable moments, Ranma being protective of Nuku
Nuku, and "tux-boy", springs to mind, I never really got the sense that
these characters were living together and coming to know each other.

These first two episodes seem really promising with their interactions: 
Akane's unwanted advances toward Ukyou, Junta's revelation about Haruka,
Ryu and Shun's friendship by default, Haruka's grumpyness (every real-world
cast seems to have one person who becomes a pariah and is hated by everyone
else). I'm not sure about Yotsuya, what's a 30+ old man doing hanging out
with teenagers? but maybe i'll be surpised.

I look foward to the next episode.
