Misa-chan finally continues this! :)
   I must admit to being a bit puzzled by this part. Parts 1 to 9 where
spent slowly building a relationship between Ukyo and Ryoga...and, may I
add, the most believable Ukyo/Ryoga relationship I've ever seen. Far too
many others have a tendency to happen like this -

Ranma - Ryoga, Ukyo, me and Akane just got hitched. Hope we can still be
friends.
Ukyo - I'll go kill myself now, as Ranma was the only thing in my shallow
life.
Ryoga - No, Ukyo! I suddenly realize that I love you!
Ukyo - And I love you! Let's go get laid, in order to cement the bonds of
our love!

Okay, well maybe not quite that bad. But there's an awful lot of love
poitions and instant love in those stories, and its nice to see a slow,
gradual growing together.
   And then you throw in Akari, Uncle Rumiko's Instant Spouse. I'm not
sure which way this is gonna go, but I can see a few options....

(A) Ryoga and Akari fall in love and marry. Then why the whole Ukyo
buildup? The Ryoga/Ukyo relationship was even _advanced_ in this part;
Ukyo got so concered about him that she yelled at "Ranchan".

(B) The next episode will permanently break up Ryoga and Akari. I like
this theory, mostly cuz I've been loving the relationship building going
on between Ryoga and Ukyo.
   Also, if I see another "Ukyo-pines-away" fic I'm gonna scream. :)

I haven't seen part B yet. Is this me, or was there a posting delay? (Know
all about those. :P)
