It's a good thing Luna/Nabiki doesn't have access to magic or she would have went Nightmare Moon/? ? long ago due to jealousy of Celestia/Akane.

The Mary Sue Tendo is strong in this one.

Definitely a really nice story you've got here. It's a shame it's been discontinued, as I'd love to see the rest.

you really need to write more RanmaXAkane stories

I love your tone and the way you pace your plot

Wow, this is interesting! Not only is Akane just as good as Ranma's male form, but the dojo is doing excellent business, sweet Kasumi is sleeping with her boyfriend, while Nabiki is an even bigger b**** who deals drugs to obtain super steroids out of jealousy. And to think this all came about because Soun *didn't* fall apart after his wife's death in this AU.

I'm sorry? On what minute of what hour of what day, month and year; in which city of which country on which *planet* can this story be considered 'complete'?

This site really needs an 'abandoned' tag.

Damned shame, because this was *really* entertaining!

I'm lost of words. Your Story is more than Fantastic. Please continue it as soon as possible.

Awesome read, Arthur! Thanks!

NO! Say it isn't so! Say this is not complete! It can't be! They aren't married yet ! Shampoo hasn't shown up yet! And Ukyo hasn't shown up yet! But if it is... the endings kinda nice. With Ranma saying "Let's go home." For it means that he considers the Tendo Dojo their home. Hahahah. Great job, Arthur!

This was a really good story, one that was nice to see. The Tendo girls were all a little more amplified in this one, Kasumi going to become the ultimate housewife, Nabiki a more bitchy version of herself, and an Akane that had finally become the martial artist she should have been in the manga if she'd been trained seriously, as well as Ranma who varied much more fiercely in his competitiveness. I hope that you can keep this up someday, as it's really good.

Definitely an interesting take on the start of the series... I could tell from the get-go how vastly different Nabiki's character was, and I'm beginning to get that vibe from the others, too. But who's Nanami? o_O This'll be interesting.

That's one pretty good story you've got there, overall. But I'm afraid that I probably won't follow it any further. Just remember it's because of my views, not the quality of the story.

The main thing that I reproach to your story is the contest of skill between Ranma and Akane. Having read the whole manga and seen a large part of the anime, it just strikes me as wrong to see Akane better than Ranma, even with the conditions you've listed.

Akane better than Ranma in his girl-form at this time of the story, I can handle. He is not really used to his girl body. But afterward it just seems wrong to see Ranma defeated three times out of four (or is it twice out of three? I don't really remember...)

I mean, from what I understand, Akane trained extensively for nine years, but still went to school, which cuts on the training time, going on trips for a few months at the time. On the other hand, you have Ranma who was trained constantly for ten years, and being always on the move. Just comparing that, it would seem logical, thought not certain, that Ranma would be at least slightly better. Add to that that in the original serie Ranma was the faster learner, and it would really place him ahead. But then again, you're writting an AU.

If you continue this, please make it easier on Ranma. Here, disconting Ryouga and Kuno, he really has it even rougher than normal for his self-confidance. In all logic, if you continue this track you probably will have to make him get really depressed about being the constant second unable to rise above. Like Ryouga did in the original story.

Yes! Finaly someone that gives Akane more creddit! I like the story. it's formated wonderfully and you used excellent desription to back the story up with! It's wonderfull! onegai, keep it up! Arigato!

Please update this! I wan't to see what happens next! Some people think that Ranma ot being the best was bad, but I think he needs some humble pie due to his usual ego. Besides, he's not that bad, when last they fought seriously, Akane's been beaten up badly even when she won.

Birthright has been consistantly one of my favourite fanficitions. I can't wait to see where you take them in the future.
