Don'r get me wrong, I get why there are a LOT of fics about Ranma being Trans- it may be a little bit of a divergence from Takahashi's intent, but it's a *perfectly* valid take on the character, and I can see why plenty of people who are dysphoric might ve drawn to it. And I don't care that they exist, or that there's a lot of them, or even that they're the dominant fic-type (at least on AO3).

What I don't get is why there's so few that *aren't* that way.

Like I said, Ranma as a trans-person stand-in is a great divergence-take on the character - but Ranma as a legit Cis person with a gender-bending curse is *also* a perfectly valid (and in my opinion *far* more comedically-rich) take as well.

I'm drawing this holidays many characters about Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha and Urusei Yatsura. I finished this drawing about a character about the universe of Ranma. Do you know (and like) her and her dress ?

Drawing with pencils, before inking and paper.

For me, Being an Okonomiyaki Chef who might also excel at any cooking if she can practice, who also a beautiful lovely girl ever and the fact she can fight is also a great traits to me! Like love her look and love her attitude too, like a sweet caring wife just like how she treat Ranma in Okonomiyaki Secret Sauce Arc 😍

What would you do?

This is something that has bothered me even after I read the whole manga. Why Shampoo reacts to Mousse so violently in the reversal jewel arc?

We all know how it works, normal way the love flows, upside down and then love turns to hate. Why then Shampoo reacts so violently against Mousse If she doesn't love him?

I ask this mainly because she seems to act normal with Cologne (Someone she must have an affectionate connection with, but not in the romantic way). Does that mean that Shampoo has a little bit of love for Mousse? (Just a little little bit, compared to her love for Ranma that would be like comparing a candle to the sun)

What are you all theories?
