...and thus, Valk the Talk, after swearing to be getting back into writing, and finishing their stories, is then, apparently, never seen or heard from again.

Seriously, I really hate reading through an interesting story, it reaches a point where everything is JUST about to really kick off, only for it to stop at the very edge, and have no sign of the writer for years on... :(

Come ogni storia che io ho letto e stata esempre abbandonata dall'autore, purtroppo non esistono autori che possono continuare il lavoro degli altri e un vero peccato

Bello questo tuo scritto mi è piaciuto

I miei complimenti sono contento del tuo scritto, lo letto molto volentieri e mi è piaciuto

Good luck with the writing of these 2 or 3 last chapters.
Take your time, get them done well and most importantly, have fun writing them :D

Waaaaaaaaah pleaes please update sooon!

Toramasa Kobayakawa 'was named in the anime (school hidden shop), in manga (cursed items shop) didn't have a name)

So please update soon!

I don't think you should even bother putting Hikaru Gosinkugi into your story given his backstory is a creepy photographer that is somewhat obsessed with Akane it would make no sense to have him bother Ranma since you paired Kasumi and Ranma together

You do realize that Xian pu, only speaks in her way, because she doesn't speak Japanese as well as Kon Lon, right? I'm sure her thoughts would be in Chinese, and in that language she wouldn't speak that way.

It is now 2018.
Even if you aren't ready to post the last few chapters, you should probably let us know what's happening with the story.
My condolences for your loss.

Cynical Rabbit

Please don't leave this hanging

Hope you continue this at some point.

I really like this whole story I hope you update soon.

Well, name-wise I can't help very much. But for locations, many of the places in the Ranma series were modeled after ones in the Shakujii-koen suburb of the real life Nerima district of Tokyo. Maybe looking it up on googlemaps or something could give insight into the local shops and whatnot. Maybe even actual stores and places to use for inspiration.

I personally tend to put the Tendo house somewhere within a mile or two of the Inarisuwa Shrine. I'm not sure exactly how big the Tendo property is, but those green, tree-filled areas near the shrine seem to be big enough to have a large fenced-off house with a decent backyard and separate dojo. If you can find a high school nearby, then the Tendo home would likely be in walking distance of it. :)

Ok, your AN said you were back but that was posted in 2015, it is now 2017. I don't want to sound callused your loss has affected you more than you thought it would. If that is the case take your time but maybe at the same time you should seek professional help.
Otherwise (here's where I may sound callused) jump back in and start writing again), PLEASE.

Shame this hasn't been updated in a while...
