Erm. I thought about pointing this out when it was originally suggested,
but decided against it...

If you're just using the same lines as they play, then what are you doing
besides changing all the names?

Make it interesting, and tell a Shakespearean-style comedy in the Ranma
1/2 setting. (That means, roughly, that all the young adult good
characters end up married, all the older ones are happy, and the bad guys
get run out of town, never to return. I'm sure there are some descriptions
of the other common Shakespearean comedy feature floating about the
Internet somewhere.)

(Gee, that sounds a lot like most "marry 'em all off!" fics.)
