In view of the ending, with Ranma's test, this
also got me thinking: when presented with the
choice, Kentaro was willing to curse himself with
magic he knew relatively little about, regardless
of the consequences. On the other hand, since Akane
knew all about Jusenkyo, and the group had even gone back to the springs 
while looking for a cure, it
means that she had the exact same opportunity to
make the same choice as Kentaro, but she chose to move on and accept 
defeat instead. I'm not asking for
Ranma or Kentaro to confront her with this choice,
though, it's just an interesting contrast I found
worthy of notice.

Well...let's face it, she didn't really have the same
choice Kentaro had, because at that time Ranma would
not have accepted a "OK, since I'm the girl, you be
the guy" solution.

Ooh, good answer.  Wish I'd thought of it.  =)

Also, Kentaro's a saint.

That too.  =)

I truly tried to tone down "Saint Kentaro" in these stories, but only made 
minimal headway.
