Ok, I am sure most of the reviews have covered most of the grammatical 
points.

Basically I liked this story, it could some polishing but is a good 
story at heart, IMHO anyway.

The two things that jarred me out of the world were Akane's none 
reaction to Pchan destroying the backup mushroom. If she went to that 
much trouble, she should at least be upset that PChan messed them and 
her room up.

I understood the, no he's not ten because he just had a birthday, 
comments.  Nodoka assumed that it would take a while to  adjust the 
numbers after they had changed so recently. She probably assumed Nabiki 
knew Ranma's new physical age. Either that or she was in shock.

Now I have a question or three

Is Ranma now an eleven year old boy in mind and body?
 If he is does this mean he has lost all of the knowledge he gained 
during this time or will lose it in short order.
 Did he lose his physical abilities or is it a case of adjustment to his 
new proportions, as when he first got the curse. ( the first fight with 
Mousse.)

Will Ranma be an eleven year old boy with seventeen years of martial 
arts experience. Even if he has to work to make adjustments because of 
his new size and weight.
 Is his KI as strong? Did his Ki reserves reduce to what a normal 11 
year old would have or what an 11 year old would have after a year or 
two of Ranma's life.

In a way This could be chance for some of the crew at Hogwarts to 
examine Ranma and try to either cure of give control of the Neko-ken.

Did Ryoga destroy all of the 11 m.m... mushrooms. As I remember 1 
Milimeter in length equals one year in age. I realize he destroyed the 
bigger ones but some of that size might be left.


OFF TOPIC: Sorta does anyone know where I can find a story in which 
Ranma is reduced to a small child in size by the mushrooms and grows 
back up and then returns to Nerima for revenge?

Someone else did an alternate version in which Ranma became a Dragon as 
a male and human in female form. He was adopted by the Outers and Hotaru 
fell in love with her and Ranma fell in love with Hotaru.

Private replies to the off topic questions. PLEASE!
