A damn good fic

Chapter 1, End.

	Alright. I'm skipping the line-by-line on this one, because I see it's 
gotten a lot of replies, but also because of your formatting (I would 
suggest indenting or at least putting an extra newline between each 
paragraph). My aged eyes are suffering.

	The story was worth it, though.

	General technical notes: When you use 'I' as a term of self address, it 
should always be capitalized. There were a number of minor spelling 
errors in the fic -- I'd suggest running it through a spellchecker to 
clean it up a bit, if possible.

	I really like Futaba's characterization. I found Ranma's interesting. All 
of the characters, however, seemed a bit... off... except for maybe 
Futaba and his family.

	And you know what?

	I think it works pretty well that way. So these characterizations are not 
what I would think of when I think of the manga, but they work for this 
story, so I think it's pretty good. :)

Well..this is the rough draft of The Matchmaker,
chapter 1, and I'm sure you found it to be very
different from Memoirs and Zhenmaoh (which is on hold)
to say the least.

	No problem. Catch you at Fanime panel next year again, hey?
