How well would a fanfic travel that features the characters of Ranma in a
new setting, Vista High School, instead of Furinkan High.  They would be
esentially americanized versions of themselves, reacting around an

drawing board?

Go back to the drawing board :0

Seriously, I don't particularly see the point.

        Hmm... I can see it.. however a large part of what makes Ranma 1/2
is the Japanese culture.  Most likely by placing it in an American culture
you'll most likely lose a) arranged marriage  b) a great deal of the
martial arts  c) half of the personalities.
        The end result may be interesting, but that remains questionable.
With alot of planning and creative liberties, I give the project a maybe.
