because Ryouga never offended her (except for the oni story).  Like
Kun-chan said
before, Ryouga's shy and afraid to confess his feelings.  That doesn't
make him a
coward.

Ahh- You think not?  Zen wishes to remind you that when akane finds out
about who her widdle P-chan is, Ryouga will be BACON.

What's that got to do with Ryouga confessing love or not??????

The point is, Dear Kun-chan, that Ryouga no Kamisama has offended Akane
DEEPLY, but she doesn't know it yet.  He DOES know it, and that adds to his
cowardice.

I take it you didn't read the episode with the dougi? That proves beyond
doubt that Akane's full potential at that time is much better than how good
Ranma was then, too. And it was nearing the end of the manga, as well.

Kun-chan...

Zen will re-read his manga...

Zen-
