Hmmm...a new Ranma 1/2 contination...*yawn* <Delete>.

Well, that's what I thought at first, anyway.  Then, I got _really_ bored,
saw there were 6 chapters, and said, "Why not?"

Good thing I have a trashcan, ne?

Actually, this is one of the more entertaining R1/2 continuations I've seen
in a while.  The writing's good, the characters seem more or less on target.
Well...I'd lean towards less - they're a bit much like Lawson's
characterizations  in my opinion.

Now, for some C&C (listen up, Vincent):

1) Ranma's referring to his mother as "momma" all the time seems wrong,
especially considering all the Japanese-in-english you have in the fiction.

2) His reactions considering defending his mother's honor seem bang on - but
why would he accept all those gifts of catering for the whole house?  Seems
a bit like refusing the bribe with one hand while taking it with the other.

3) As I said before, everyone (especially Ranma & Akane) are a might too
reasonable, in my opinion.

4) Finally, good work...keep it up.
