 Ranma Charecter, I'd say Kasumi is a better fit into the girl next door
 persona than Akane. >>
Ahh, but Kasumi fits much better into the role of Older woman, there's not a
lot of difference as far as age goes, but in my opinion she's much more
mature than any of the other characters (that includes her father and the
much, much older Cologne)

I agree on that Kasumi would fit better as the role of the "Older Woman" Dream girl (Let's just say DG for short).  But that still leaves for the "Girl Next door" DG.  And if you want to use a character from Ranma for this category, who better to fit that role, than Ukyo Kuonji?  She's the one Ramna goes to, in order to find a friendly ear that'll listen, and free eats :)

About the essay itself, It had a good introduction, but like mentioned before, It needs a solid conclusion.  Perhaps what you could do is give your opinion on which dream girl you'd like to be with, if stranded on a deserted island, or do a mini-survey with those around you, and find out who's mostly likely to be chosen.  What also needed work, was the fluidity of the middle. Let's take for example, the "Go-Girl" and the "Older Girl".  Two very different catagories, but instead of going like so;

One example of a dream girl that people think of, is the Go-girl.. blablabla.
Next, we have the Older girl.. yadiyadiyadi..

you can write it so that the second paragraph pertains to the one previously written;

One example of a dream girl that people think of, is the Go-girl.. blablabla-da.
Yet, not all girls in anime usually fit into the catagory of being the "Go-girl" type.  On the contrary, most of them are serene and usually are those whom one could count on for advice or a maternal proxy.  These are known as the "Older Girls" of Anime.. yadiyadiyadi.

Feel free to alter it anyway you like, it's just a suggestion. All of this is, so you don't _have_ to listen to me. Anyway, It was a pretty good essay, hope you do good in it! :)
