    Not that it wasn't very funny (which it was), or weird (which it was). But I
think everyone knows that the only way someone from the Ranmaverse can survive
fighting a Z-warrior is by: 1) They were given a Saiya-jin blood transfusion (Ranma
1/2 Z), 2) Was born a Saiyan (A Saiyan Tail), or whoever they're fighting is going
very, very easy on them (Dragonball R, Boys and Girls).

    There's one other way to do it. Since Kurilin's power in Z so far exceeds
even Cologne or Happosai, despite several decades less training, an obvious
possibility is that the laws of the Dragonball universe permit the control and
release of vastly greater amounts of power than the Ranma universe. Thus, if
Vegeta came to the Ranmaverse, he'd be no more powerful than Herb, or perhaps
Saffron - strong, but not a world-destroyer.  Alternately, if Ranma characters
came to the Dragonball universe, they'd be automatically at Z-warrior levels.
Ryoga's Perfect Shi Shi Hokodan, for example, would probably destroy the Earth,
much to his chagrin.
