Just taking a short break from drawing manga/impromanga, when this idea popped into my head, but instead of writing it down, I drew it instead. Here's the link to the rough sketch:

Comments/Flames welcome. Oh yeah, has anyone written a fanfic about this yet? Title/Location?
Noriega,
Actually, I have seen the "Kuno gets his wish" one before. The first I've
seen it was somewhere buried on the RAAC archive, and it wasn't more than
a spamfic (by the way, this is not only shorter, IMHO it's more
effective). I've seen another one before, but it was only a side plot,
not the main conflict. I -think- it was one of the Wade Tritchner spinoff
fics(due to the writing style), and it had Ranma as a wielder of magic.
Ranma does it to teach Kuno a lesson.
As for the Akanenichuan, Alan Harnum did a beautiful one (which makes more
sense than Takahashi's dealings with the spring), Cobb has a series where
Ranma looks like Akane, and vice versa. And of course, there's always
that one that I did with no redeeming value to it.
For some reason, your drawing of Kuno reminds me of FF7 Cloud with his
hair combed. No, I don't know why I should get such an impression.
Have you done more of these? I usually don't follow URLs to fanart or
fanfics (unless I want a back chapter) but since this was both fanart and
fanfic combined, I couldn't resist. And I liked it.

The sardines weren't worth the trouble. A few more shots, then
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode. Ducking around a corner,
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of
my Anime supplier.
One look at his face and I knew that I had been betrayed. "Tell me,"
I insisted. He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance. Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao," he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
