    Ok everyone, thinking caps on, who deserves Ranma and why?

    Ranko deserves him,
    Akane is like a little child, she doesn't deserve him 'cause she can't handle what happens to him.
    Ukyou... well, we know what she does to the wedding
    Xian-Pu, laws are laws, but those are amazon laws, and good laws those laws are bad!
    Kodachi... 'nuff said.
    Azusa, she doesn't want him, she want's her cute little charlotte/marianne/francois/oscar/blarghead-cheeseboy/etc.
    <SPOILER WARNING>
    Tsubasa, not a girl
    </SPOILER WARNING>
    Kaori, well, she lost 'cause Ranma didn't want to be her fiance
    Akari-she's got her cute little Ryoga
    well, then there's the angle that Ranma should hook up with a guy... NO!!!
    Ryoga... tries to kill 'im
    Tatewaki... blarg
    Gosunkugi... couldn't possibly live through the experience
    Mousse... well, he has shampoo no matter who he's with, but that doesn't mean he gets onna-ranma

    Ranma gets Ranma and that's it.

    "Deserves"? Just what kind of reply did ya expect with that?
    In my humbled opinion, there is no "destined" choice for that poor guy...tho' if it comes down to who actually loves him (for real, or just by some infatuation) I place my bets on Akane Tendo...she don't ever admit it, but she knows inside she luvs 'im...

    I'd gladly argue the point futher with anyone who disagrees...

    Anything goes = indiscriminate grappling

    Funny translation differences between anime and manga!

    It kinda boils down ta the same thing, tho', right...? Just "Anything Goes" is easier to type then "Indiscriminate Grappling"...

    didn't know, that's why I asked [​IMG]
    Ranko: hehe ewwww
    and no, I don't think there is a destined choice. I still think there could be a deserved choice, one that despite being deserved, doesn't necessarily happen (ties in with no happy endings thread a bit I suppose)

    Defy! Defy! Defy!!!
    there, you've been defied.
    True... deserved choices get denied all the time.
    I suppose if time were allowed to run it's course, Akane would get Ranma (I tend to look at Jusendo as a reference, Ranma loves Akane, and I believe Akane reciprocates, but that doesn't mean she deserves him. Good and bad in all I suppose, I guess you could say my silent vote is for Akane. (since she's the one he loves)

    After all that she's had to put up with I definately think Akane "deserves" Ranma, but, there's just something about "Spatula girl" that get's to me, either way I think Ranma would be fine with it so long as there is food on the table. (This is of course, hoping Akane can ever learn to cook)

    "okonomiyaki" literally translated means "cooked things that you like"(translation from a friend of mine who lived in Japan for a few years) it's translated by other people as "as you like", as to what it is, it's a pancake like food with various things fried into it, the basic ingredents of an okonomiyaki are water, flour, eggs, and cabbage or seaweed. From there it's "anything goes," literally, 'cause "as you like" means just that, you put on anything you like, from shrimp to pork, squid to alligator, if you have it, it can go on it. This is why I sometimes refer to it as musgo pancakes ('cause everything in the fridge "must go")

    I think Ukyo should go with Ryoga. Shampoo with Mousse. and Ranma with Akane...that leaves Kodachi and Kuno(Kodachi did once call Kuno her lover though [​IMG] ....ew [​IMG]or was it Kuno that called Kodachi, ah whatever. I say I come in and marry all the girls!!

    And I simply think that Happosai isn't the marrying type...

    BakaMattSu, who's starting to think he's not the only baka one around here...
