 Nabiki on the other hand planed and accomplished her goal 
flawlessly, she defined herself as a villian by the same criteria as 
Genma 
and Soun, however she was a serious villian because she was competant.

Nabiki isn't a villain. Herb is a villain. For the life of me, I don't 
understand how people who've even been exposed to even the anime can 
have that view of her. I'll never figure out how screwy fanfic 
inventions get to be canonical.

The Tendou sisters are a satire on Japanese culture. At one end, you 
have in Kasumi the paragon of traditional Japanese house-wife values, on 
the other you have the the so-called 'young generation' represented in 
Nabiki who is materialistic and selfish. Akane stands between them. 
Nabiki's purpose is to provide the odd gag by extorting Ranma out of 
petty change--she is NOT a player in the Love Battle.
