Ranma 1/2: The Insanity Continues.

The manga series may have ended, but that doesn’t mean the story of Ranma and Akane has to end there (particularly since nothing was really resolved). This is an ongoing series that offers a possible future for Ranma and Akane post-manga.

This continuation fict is different than most. I will let you read it to find out more of why it is different, but here is one hint: the wedding of Ranma and Akane is only the begining, not the end.


Volume 0: Ever Changing World

Chapter 1: Voyage of Thoughts This chapter starts half-way through the final chapter of Manga 38 as those who went to China return with a lot to think about. The bombed wedding attempt in the final chapter is included. What does Ranma and Akane think about the attempt?

Chapter 2: New Eyes Akane has a little chat with Nabiki and Nodoka. Akane also starts looking at things differently, seeing things more as they are than what she had previously wanted them to be. The various suitors let Ranma and Akane know how they feel about the wedding attempt.


Volume 1: Trapped

Chapter 1: The Gem Ranma got Happosai really mad, and as punishment he got trapped in a magical gem. Akane, sitting next to him, was trapped as well. Ranma and Akane take the chance to talk, but also try to do everything they can think of to escape.

Chapter 2: Revelations Ranma and Akane are freed, but rapid changes occur do to something they did while trapped.

Chapter 3: Dealing with Love Nabiki sets out to handle Ranma's little suitor problems, and Akane has a talk with a certain pet pig.
