'Hate' really doesn't have anything to do with it.  The fact is, you don't
have to look very hard before you can find some examples of Ranma not being
such a nice guy.  He certainly can be a nice guy, given the right
circumstances, though.  But, in other circumstances, he can be downright
nasty.

(he gets miffed, and then he gets over it). And while I haven't *implicitly*
stated why Akane is better, I have put some hints in there (a small part
that I rewrote). I'm trying to do a seriel type storyline, where things that
aren't immediately obvious will come out in tim.

So, is Tim a new character we'll be seeing in future parts?  :)
 
And it's a concept test. How do you write Akane being better that Ranma,
while Ranma hasn't changed?

If it's a concept test, then why are you so adamant about ignoring the input
that others are giving you?  If anything, you should be paying extra-close
attention to it.

BTW, there are two instances in the manga where Akane gets her strength
magically enhanced -- the Super Soba story (manga #11, VIZ GN#10), and the
Battle Dougi story (manga #32, check out the Ranma Project at
http://ranmascan.dhs.org/).  Take a look at those stories; it might provide
some insight about how to proceed here.
