You really know how to create those sweet, uninterrupted moments that are made all the more special simply by the fact that we get to see so little of them :) so keep doing what you're doing now. You have nothing to be disappointed in where this story's concerned. I enjoy these small, supposedly meaningless moments myself :)

I noticed there was a 'chapter 1' at the beginning of the story. I hope more's on the way! :D

This is so well-written and funny and cute! I really hope you write more - of this, of anything!

this is so cool i think you should continue the story.

I really enjoyed reading this chapter. I look forward to the next. I see you haven't updated in a while, but I hope you are planning to continue the story. ^^

Ooh, I got kind of sad when I read on your profile that you wouldn't be continuing any of your stories for lack of inspiration. Well, I'm not completely certain that I should be saying this (I'm not worthy of writing suggestions to you!), but I always get really happy and start dreaming about fanatical stories whenever I read the Ranma 1/2 manga. So yeah.

This was a perfect chapter! I can't believe it ... right from the beginning line, you could sort of tell it was kind of going to be a perfect day (you know, they were yelling about the bathroom and such, but whatever). You must be an English teacher or at least a super-rad English-speaking god/goddess with impeccable fingers! I love how everything flowed, and even the part where Ranma and Akane were admiring each other wasn't awkward, OOC, or seeming really perverted. It was so natural. Completely.

I really hope you finish this one. Your other story - "The Harder They Fall" - is just AMAZING, and this one really seems that way too, but perhaps this one would be easier to finish. I'm not sure. But I do know that I love your writing style and I can't wait when you write more. But even if you don't, well, at least what you already have is making me so happy ;D.

Another 'for the win' story!
I hope you continue this, it's cute!

aa it's so sweet! It's hard to find good Rankane fanfics of the waffy kind without extreme OOCness abound, so I'm very impressed. Please write more! And while you're at it, write more of The Harder They Fall too. I really enjoyed that one. XD

Ya know what I've learned reading this fic?
Aside from the fact that listening to Pantera isn't healthy to a conductive romantic comedy reading experience?
It's that you've kept Ranma in-character to the anime/manga and still given him a near genius level intelligence where reading between the lines is concerned.
And I know that I've reviewed this once already, but art must, and is, be constantly praised. It's just good for the author's psyche.
But back on topic. How many men do you know are as effective as Ranma is at recognizing what seems to many men to be subtle hints and clues to what's really going on in a woman's mind?
From my experience, I've found that I can use one hand to count them all and that I've still got enough fingers left over to use a pair of chopsticks.
And I still can't help but smile at how helpless men are to a gorgeous woman with a cute smile. No matter how tough the man, if red blood runs through his viens, the women will win every time.
Again off topic for a sec, the topic being the unadulturated praise for a masterfully done fic, but nancy boys? I'm a little confused as to what you ment when you used that. Oh well. I've still got aways to go to get to Ranma's level of women smarts.
And back to topic, and with a little rambling thrown in cause it's too early in the morning for me; a diamond? Seems like I've got, well, thank god it's only an anime, right?

Hoping You Got A Giggle,
Cynic
P.S. I really need to work on my attitude if I'm going to keep calling myself a cynic. Oh well

what are you talking about? it's awesome. i loved it.

I luv it =) I hope you update this sometime, or is it supposed to be a oneshot? Judging by the last sentence it could go on ... but it also could stand on its own, and leave everything to the reader's imagination ^^

I love your writing style, I really do ... so I hope you'll keep on writing and update your fics ^.^

Thanks for sharing

cheers

I enjoyed reading about the cute interactions between Ranma and Akane.

gee, i really wish there was something to nitpick in this story but... there's is nothing wrong. hahah well, in my eyes, anything you write is perfect. I love this story! I can't believe how amazingly sweet this is! And not to mention, funny. This story had me in a fit of giggles.

The lighthearted tone of this story is truly its primary appeal. Nothing dramatic or confusing. It's mostly wistful, warm, and simply wonderful. (the three Ws! haha) It can be seen as an Interlude of our two favorite characters that Rumiko Takahashi never gave us, readers. She can be so cruel at times. But you came and saved the day!

The dialogue is true to their characters and incredibly natural in its flow. There's nothing superfluous or ambiguous about their exchanged words. And it's so easy to imagine their expressions and overall appearances as they talk. It's perfect!

Your narration is incredibly witty and clever througout the entire story, making it an enjoyable read. I laughed so many times :D

Kasumi's devious scheme is adorable! And that remark about Kasumi being unable to talk to AKane in that motherly tone made so much sense that i had to laugh. Most of us writers (and readers) forget that their age difference is not that... far apart. And, "Of course, some members of the household still needed to hear that voice once in a while." had me laughing. that was such a canon Ranma moment that nobody could've pull off better than you.

"Italy" ? that was a bit random. not that there's a problem. but not what i expected. interesting. :D

That scene where he was juggling and winning the hearts of the crowd had me wishing he was real so that i can adore him in real life. gosh, why can't guys like that really exist?!

about your observations regarding Ranma's army outfit... ya know, I wondered the same exact thing when i first read Ranma 1/2. (In fact, the entire fixation on the Chinese culture in the manga really confuses me because it's no secret that the Japanese aren't exactly fond of the Chinese, and vice versa. Well, politically, anyway.) but that's an issue for another time. :)

Really, i can't find anything to nitpick. This is such a great story. And i'm disappointed that there aren't more chapters for me to indulge. Be a darling, and update, please? (big puppy eyes)

HOW CUTE! this fic rox! please update soon!

Wow, this is good too. Please update soon. I really like this story. Long live fluff!

wow i really liked this fic...i hope i can read more soon...good luck :)
