    This is my first real post (I be a newbe:shy3:) so I don't know if I'm doing this right... but I'm going to try anyways.....

    Everybody I know thinks Kuno is dumb and I want to know if anyone, besides me, likes him.

    I liked him in the movie "Nihao my Concubine" and that's about it. And even then, he was thoroughly beaten up and destroyed by doggy-boy. :D Actually, even the characters I don't normally like...I really like in that movie. But, I digress, Kuno is Kuno. Tatewaki is very nutty...and he's cool...but, sometimes he scares me. But, it's an anime, so I just tend to ignore him and see him as an inane (and insane) plot device. He DOES have some good moments though...and I do admit to using "Osage no Onna!" a few times. :p

    Brib's (Lethal Angel = Family) you need to face facts that Kuno is just a Psychotic boob man. o_O (pardon to all if that is any offense) The only thing that is good about him is his 1337 shakespearean skillz. And that even gets to be too much after awhile. :D

    LOL! "Psychotic boob man." You crack me up Jendeeba!

    I don't know why it is exactually that I like him maybe its because:

    *He's the wealthiest in Japan. I'm not saying that money is the most important thing, but it can't hurt any...can it?
    *He's so poetic, and you know, that can be kinda romantic.
    *He's smart, he may not know when to give up, but besides that, he can be pretty smart.
    *He manages to put up with his 'twisted sister' everyday.
    *He knows the true meaning of love.
    ....ect.

    Or maybe I just like his.....ness.:D (don't ask)

    Kuno adds a certain flair to Ranma. He is just another suiter to make Ranma jealous....and act like he's not. Ah, the mechanics make me smile. Anyway, I think maybe he's a bit of a *headcase* but, without head cases, where would we be? Sides, he's got a wicked cool ability to come up with corny nicknames for himself and others.

    The cool thing about Kuno is that he's invincible. Well, he's hard to hurt, granted...but he has the ability to be invincible offensively too! LOL. Put him in a patch of watermelons, and watch him DESTROY Ranma! :p That is, until Neko-ken comes into play.

    What is kinda scary about him though is his very near perverse desires. I don't know...I mean, it's kinda gross. Funny, but gross.

    Kuno I admit can be an idiot....mostr of the time. But it doesnt change the fact that hes awsome. THink of all the great moments we would have missed out on without him. He is of key importance. Also hes one of the greatest characters.

    What I really found entertaining about Kuno is how many close encounters he does have that should lead him to know that "Ranma" and the "Pig-tailed girl" are the same person...

    He doesn't even grasp the concept when Ranma directly tells him.

    I think he's one of the funniest recurring characters, and Ranma wouldn't be the same without his inclusion.

    I think he makes the series. The eps with him early in the first season are my favourites. In later seasons when the episodes drag, his occasional appearances still drag a chuckle out of me. He's one of the greatest characters ever. Maybe someday I'll provide proof instead of opinion :D

    Kuno and his sister just have a strange thought patern, both of them have seen ranma change form, but all this has lead to is Kuno yelling that Ranma is a dark sorcerer, his sister yelling that the pig tailed harlet has taken her Ranma away, whcih usaly lead to ranma running for dear life because the two have started fighting, and are now tearing up the street with there fight about who is the more evil, the pig tailed harlet, or the black sorcerer

    not to say Kuno isent cool, he is
