Lots of character bashing of Shampoo and Ukyo, Ranma
Ukyo?  Who bashed Ukyo?  Ignored maybe.  

I think this section is pretty much bashing:

(Not to mention that Gary once _again_ suggested turning Ukyou into a dog.)

# 	Ukyo wished again, and Ranma and Ryoga stood by her side. They
# beamed looks of utter adoration at her as she climbed onto their
# shoulders to view the world from on high.
# 
# 	Akane and Kodachi stared at her, envious but not resentful. Of
# course, it wasn't fair for her to take two men without leaving anything
# for them. Akane could have Kuno, but what about Kodachi and Akari? She'd
# have to find something for them. It was only fair. Maybe those boys from
# school, Hiroshi and Daisuke.
# 
# 	Ukyo smiled. The sun obediently emerged from behind the clouds
# to flood the world in gentle light and warmth. Birds chirped out a
# joyful melody. Everything was perfect. Across the world. heads bowed in
# loving devotion, as voices chorused, "We worship you, Ukyo-sama!"
# 
# =3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-
# 
# 	"What the heck did you do to Ucchan?"
# 
# 	Kodachi smirked. "Merely given her what she wanted. She's happy
# now!"
# 
# 	Ukyo staggered around the grass, eyes glazed over in a dreamy
# haze. "Why, Ran-chan! Ryo-chan! You say the sweetest things! You don't
# need to fight. You can *both* be first!"
