(Pardon the extreme lateness of this reply..catching up on ffml posts)

This was another one hour fic, inspired by a certain fanfic cliche.
Multitudes of fics postulate Genma as having made zillions of fiancee
arrangements for Ranma as a child, even though he only did this *once*
in the original series (and that was clearly Ukyo's father's idea) and
it's rather unbelievable that hordes of parents would be eager to engage
their daughters to the son of someone as disreputable-looking as Genma.

In the manga, right after Ranma's fight with Ukyo, when Genma 
tells Ranma that Ukyo is indeed his fiancee, she says "You took our 
cart and ran.  You cast me aside just as you had Ranma's previous 
fiancee."  So it seems that Genma did it more than once.  (But having
not read the rest of the manga past viz GN#12, I can't say whether
or not we find out who the "previous fiancee" is, or if any other
reference to her is made).
