That was dark . . . why did you have to open the narrative with *Kasumi*
getting killed? o.o

I haven't gotten involved in the 'could Ranma attack Akane' debate, but
this seems like the scenario I would have 'needed' for it to be possible.
It seems like Akane was possessed here (which is what I think it would
take) and there was no way to drive the evil spirit out.

I also noticed two things:
	- Ranma didn't act until his mother was dead.
	- When Ranma finally 'attacked' Akane, he went with her.
