Fequently Asked Question for Past/Future up to Chp 7

This is an Alternate Universe. All my stories are Alternate fic. The storyline is mostly the same but in some instances, they will deviate from the original time line.

All questions concerning Ranma and his appearance in the year 2015 will be answered at the end of the story.

This is also a different universe than that which he came from, you will not be seeing Ryouga at the age of 36 or any of the other Nerima gang. See Chapter 3 for details.

The Saotome Ranma from this fic is 18 years old (Chp 2). He is stronger and more mature, especially since his mother Saotome Nodoka came back into his life (Chp 5). She resume teaching Ranma proper socal stills and impressed upon him how important school work is, etc. The same thing she was trying to do with Ranko, now with Ranma full time (Chater Seven).

Why isn't Ranma cursed anymore?

   

Ranma discovered that he was 14 again or around that age in Chapter 2. Since he got his curse at 16 and not 14 that meant that his body never went to Juesenkyou. Or it could be something entirely different. :)

Ranma never acted so confident around people especially girls before.

   

Ranma does not have the curse anymore. He does not have to act so macho headed to try and prove he was a man. Also his mother accepted him as he was. That also helped his ego. One year you might ask me. This is an Anime, look at what Ranma went through in one year : Multiple fiancees, Dojo Destroyer, Full Body Cat Tongue, Princes, Dragons, Herb, Saffron, Cologne, Happosai, New Principle, Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken training, Moko Takabisha, Hiryu Shoten Ha. Tell me he can not change his attitude in one year.

In chapter 4, why does Ranma suck so bad?

   

Okay I know that after reading Chapter 4 that some people were confused. This is Ranma, the guy who is good at everything right? Well I was sick of Ranma coming into the scene and all of a sudden he is so good. This Ranma I think is more realistic and some light will be revealed in later chapters as to why. Just remember that one of the key to his thinking is that he keeps coming back after being defeated. He did not lose, it was a minor set back. After Reading Chp 6, a few questions popped up about his sync rate. This shall also be answered in later chapters.

After reading Chp 4 and 5, some asked

Two ki blast and that is it? If he was only able to throw 2 then Ryouga would easily defeat him before.

     

As for his ki blast. Ki is from within. In the 2nd movie when he and Akane were falling toward the spring of drown man, he told Akane that he was putting all his energy into the blast, that is what he did here. Seeing that his new friend was in danger Ranma gathered as much ki as possible and blasted the monster. Also, in the US as well as the manga, that I have seen, Ranma has not learned to do a ki blast yet. Ranma rarely does ki blast. Even Ryouga in the second movie had trouble standing after his own ki blast. He might just have been tired. Who knows. What I will tell you is that for Ki, a person can only do one or two, Chi they can do as many and as often for that is energy from around them and they are not using their own energy.

Why does Misato act so surprised at Ranma's outburst in Chapter 4? She was trying hard not to laugh as if she was expecting something?

   

As for with Misato, she was expecting the same reaction from Ranma as she had experience from Shinji because up to that point their reactions were identical when introduced to the LCL.

I thought that Eva Unit 03 was destroyed in the S2 testing in Tokyo-2 Nerv base? Then Toji's Eva Unit 04 was destroyed by Shinji and the dummy plug.

   

This is an alternate universe. Unit 3 was never destroyed. They never tested an artifical S2 engine. Asuka never got her inner most thoughts scanned and go commatose. Unit 03 was the one that was possessed not Unit 04 by the Angel but they fitted that Eva.

That my friend is all the questions I've been asked so far. It is all the questions I am likely to answer. If you ask nicely I might answer a few more.
