HI,
Interesting idea. As always comments are IMO.
1) the presentation is a bit awkward. I LIKE the introduction. VERY
NICE opening scene. Interesting idea with the cards but the bit with
english seems forced. It would not be impossible to have Akane/neko
dip her paw in ink and write Kanji/katakana//hiragana
2) Too much too fast. We have a two curses, one specific to Akane one
Universal (the entire Ranmaverse has changed) Nabiki is Ranma's
fiance, an Amazon, a manga writer . . .huff huff huff <exhausted
reader> ^_^
Allmost All SRU transformations have a universal component so that the final
change is seen
by everyone else as the way things always were. It's like the final
tranformation spell has a temporal
part that backflows into time rewritting the past. This is likely so because
SRU Transformations are
usually seen as punishment for bad behavior and by rewritting the past, the
victim is cut off from any
potentional sympathy.
At least that's my view of the SRU universes based on what I've read.
