Wait...

This honor thing, will it even hold with all the ** the likes of Genma & Tatewaki pulls all the time? What about Shampoo or Ukyo? how will that even be resolved?

Yikes, if Ryouga's solution was to let him win. Getting Ranma into a gown wouldn't be that much of a stretch.The crew in Ranma 1/2 is a dishonorable bunch. He'll fall sooner or later, unless the Gods gives him a better wayout.

The solution works though, I can't fault it.

Did I mention that this is good?

/sigh/ such an interesting concept ...
and no update for abt a year (
A pity ((
Still hope you find inspiration to continue ^_^

I'm utterly fascinated. Please continue as soon as you can.

Q

This was ... interesting.

Do you plan to ... continue it?

I ... hope you do.

>Author's Notes: I think I originally wrote this in '03 or '04.

It was 03. I remember, because you showed me the first fragment in an e-mail when we were discussing 'Sky and Shore.' May I just say how cool it is to see the full story all these years later after how promising that fragment was.

This is hardly what I'd call incomprehensible babble. In fact it's a quite enjoyable story with a credible reason for everything that happens. You see very few fanfictions that make the transition from mortal Ranma to immortal Kami seem so natural.

You're also to be commended for your clear and concise use of the English language.

Here's hoping to see an update on this soon.

You certainly made an interesting story here. Many of the characters are different, yet recognizeable. Ranma is still Ranma despite the differences. I really like what I'm seeing here.

On to the next chapter!

Very, very definitive.

The style, the quality... they clearly shows whose work this is... quite a rare find these days really, I just hope this means you're back writing again.

p.s. Why didn't you post all of the Process of Elimination on FFN? I'm pretty sure there's more of in on Forestica.

Very interesting idea. I was concerned earlier on that you might not let it diverge enough, but it's been great so far.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

The story is good but lacks action, I would consider throwing in some followers of other gods trying to destroy Ranma before he is ready to take his place amongst the gods

This is unique, interesting, and well written. One of the vanishingly few Ranma as a divinity that does *not* result in a uber-ranma can 'o whup ** being spread around.

Thanks for this excellent example of how a Ranma as divinity story can be written.

Well, it's a very interesting story. you keep everything flowing perfectly, telling a good story, that makes sense, that isn't overly cliche, and... well, is just very good.

I... well I'm not entirely convinced of Ranma's character. he's always busy with upholding the law, whichever it may be, but I feel that you can integrate his arroggance in his quest for upholding laws. I just miss Ranma's brazen character a bit I guess.

I'm also happy how you pictured Genma. Reading stories bashing the man every inch they can, can get a bit tiring after a fashion. but you weren't nasty at all, but I do wonder if something magical happened to Genma, or that the realisation that he was awfully close to losing his only son made him change his way. While I like how you portrayed him, I do also miss some original Genmaness here.

However, I do love how you've written Akane. she gives me a feeling of being a normal, slightly frustrated girl, but a normal one, a reasonable one, and I like that.

I'm not always very good at explaining how I like ones writing style, and what I do think is wrong with it. You write well, your pharagraphs are clear and tell what needs to be told, but there is very little gleu holding the different pharagraphs together. you hop from one to the next one, and at times I feel that I miss a little information. I am not referring here to the complete absense of Ranma's learning from Emma-o and the other Kami, but when Ranma for example travelled with that girl.

I probably should better PM you, because my review is getting quite long, but one last thing: I really like the girl. I don't know, she doesn't have much of a character yet, we hardly know her. but she's, very much like the rest of your character, pretty much a normal character that doesn't go into the extremes, and I like that.

Cheers,

Seems interesting. ^^ I know nothing of any of these Gods, would it be possible that these Gods have personality equivilants in Western lore? Not to suggest that they'd be one and the same, but a precedence would be nice to put things in perspective.

Because otherwise... I mean, all I know about Spirited Away is that a little girl gets caught by a witch and later gets away with help from a spirit of a river and a good witch. Or.. I think they were witches, I'm not entirely sure. Irregardless, this whole setup doesn't seem to mesh by that reasoning. O_O?

Not bad.
