Hey when was it ever decided that Kodachi is the most unappealing 
character of Ranma 1/2......isn't there anyone who moderately likes 
her?...jeez....in almost every fanfic she is a total lunatic who most 
frequently 
gets institutionalized :P.....though I am not a big Kodachi fan.....she 
is a moderately ok character......I can certainly think of nastier ones 
:P....though I won't mention one due to probable protests ^_^

	I think of her as a somewhat more creative (and sadistic as opposed to 
masochistic) version of Mousse; they are both honestly in love with thier 
chosen mates, convinced said mates love them back, and are willing to 
kill to protect said mates from percieved or actual threats.  Personally, 
I'm wondering why Takahashi-sensei has not attempted to pair those two.

Akane stares at Ranma, "RANMA NO BAKA!!!!!", pulls a mallet out of some 
ready-to-use-weapon-dimension, and prepares to send Ranma on a little 
excursion to the moon.......
Ranma sees another one of Akane's pointless bursts of violence coming and 
suddenly realizes that he doesn't have to take it...."MEGA-TON PUNCH!!!"
Akane flies out of the stratosphere......hopefully never to be seen again

	Lemme guess, you wanna found a Church of Akane? ;)
