Description: Nabiki proves, once again, that she is an
irresistable gaijin magnet.
Comments: There's a fair bit of Mary Sue about this story
LOL i just pictured a little-miss-perfect type girl as a marine.
but it's mechanically sound. I liked the depiction of
Tofu at work, but I have doubts about the depiction of
Nodoka. I mean, c'mon, if the old man's training techniques
didn't break or embitter Ranma, what could Nodoka do?
Also, Kasumi, being a traditional sort, would not likely
approve of or encourage Nabiki's interest in a foreigner.
Soun would plotz.
"plotz?"

Comments: The author's habit of addressing the audience
directly is more irritating than amusing.
Live with it. 's that simple. i think it's funny, and i can't think
of any other way to use the word "dickweed" in a fanfic [i will in
the inline-authors-notes in the next one]
Also, casting
Ranma as the voice of good sense strikes me as odd.
well, come on!!! he's read the book, he's seen the movie, he's got
the t-shirt. [kidding on t-shirt, may not be on movie] he knows damn
well what will happen to Odysseus if he yells at Polyphemus.

after a different fashion then previously assumed, you mean.
Comments: Kasumi's attitude toward Nodoka is internally
contradictory. That isn't necessarily a problem, but
Kasumi should be a little more aware of the conflict between
"No mother would do it" and "Honour demanded it".

Description: Various Ranma 1/2 martial artists out of
ego or lovesickness decide that they have to help the
Senshi.
Comments: Some sloppiness produced by haste and lack of
pre-reading.
Minako was about to continue, but subsided when she caught
sight of
the expression on Michiru's face. "We don't no that she had
anything al
all to do with the Silver Millennium," Ami commented calmly.
"know" "at". And may I take this moment to sincerely hope
that they don't turn out to be reincarnations. There's no
reason why our era can't turn out some tough customers.
Also that should probably be the look on Haruka's face,
since it's Haruka feeling the pangs of jealousy, isn't it?
"As I recall, each of the Senshi headed a group of elite
warriors
that aided them in their duties." After she finished, Luna
smiled
smugly, happy show Artemis up.
"to show" And how did that show Artemis up?
Luna typically gets bugged by artemis about her amnemonia [lack of
memory, as opposed to loss of it]
"Right. Plus, there was a dojo near the last attack. It's
the
article beside the add that's the real proof though."
"ad"
And that crack about martial artists not spending their
time doing tea ceremony or eating was funny.
really funny considering he was talking about Sentarou Daimonji and
Piccolet Chardin! don't forget to add "playing around at the skating
rink"
You know if Argentite just reasons with Taro, he could
be a real asset. He has toyed with the thought of taking
over the world after all, and it would be his chance to
rename himself after a mineral.
Nah. probably would end up with a lame-ass name like Pantyhosite.

Ash decides to limit his array of pokemon.
Comments: I'd think that Misty's wish ability would limit
the amount of real danger they are in. So when is Misty
going to win a fight by having Ash wish for a large anvil
above her opponent's head?
Ash doesnt fight dirty like that!
Bill, wincing, said, "Professor, don't you think that
show is in bad
tatse?"
"taste"
Fusion idea when i saw this scene: "Billigan's Isle." Oak as the
Professor and Bill as Gilligan!
nah.
Under the waves, Team Rocket's sub was being rocked by the
storm as well.
Uh...no. A surface storm doesn't endanger submerged subs.
There's still the nauseating circular water currents, isnt there?
Ash shrugged, as he was a bit startled to her anything
coming from
Charizard. He hoped that the time out of the ball would make
Charizard more
"hear"
It appears that Misty is no longer worried about the idea
of evolving into an efreet. When will she start saying
"Gee-ni-ee"?

Description: A clone of Ranma's female form wakes up in
a dark future.
Comments: While Ranma's breasts are substantial, at least
by Japanese standards, they aren't _that_ big. Have the
clones been tinkered with? I should think the reason why
she was enjoying trashing the would-be rapists would be
self-evident even if the source of the ability to do so is
a mystery to her. This is vaguely reminiscent of a certain
other Ranma project with many authors, but since that one
has gone down the tubes, I look forward to seeing more
of this one.
