After reading many of the fanfics that have graced the internet
over the few years I am forced to ask why?  Judging from what I see in
much of the fanfic the authors seem to have a hatred of the series
main characters.   In short why is their such strong like or dislikes
of such characters.  People who love Ryoga hate Ranma, people who love
Ranma hate Ryoga.  


Not Really, Ranma and Ryoga are both OK.


The girl loyalties are far worse.  If you like Akane then Shampoo is
a stupid bimbo. 


Well that's true, regardless of who you like.


If you like Shampoo then Akane is a clod.


Nope, just a bitch who can't control her temper.


 If you like Ukyo then the others are self interested brats.  


All three are self-interested brats.  But Ukyo's still my favorite.


I guess I am just confused.  How can a series as popular as Ranma
1/2 be based on characters so hated.  Even my boyfriend can't explain
it.   He collects Ranma religously yet thinks Ranma is a jerk  and
Akane is to  good for any of the male characters of the series.  


Akane?  Too good?  I beg to differ.  Let Ryoga have her.



So why is Ranma the most written fanfic series on the web?  What
causes the passion both good and bad about this series?  I love it
because of the humor.  To me a mallet thumping is funny, it's
physical comedy. 


Ahh...you mean like the three stooges?


I believe Ranma and Akane are the perfect couple. 


Ugh!


 I  think  Ryoga and Akari are so kwai!!  Kuno is so obsessive it's
funny.  Come on girls, we all know that the guys we have the least
interest in are the one's we can never get rid of.  In short I like
the entire cast of Ranma.  Each builds off of the other to create a
wonderful world rich in adventure, humor, and entertainment.

Life is a mystery.  That's why no one can figure it out!!
