	*Sigh*

	Go for it if you want.  Just remember that for almost the entire Manga 
series Ranma and Akane have stayed in love with other despite incredible 
attempts to break them up.  If you want to make them fall in love with someone 
else, make sure that you provide a lot of justification.
	And also, Why do you think Ryouga and Ukyo are better for Akane and 
Ranma respectively?
	With the Akane Ryouga match we have Akane matched with someone who's 
been taking advantage of her since their third meeting (The first time he slept 
with her as P-chan was her fault, every other time is him betraying her), who's 
so desperate for love that he'll fall for anyone who shows him affection, and 
who is so obsessive he would follow someone to China over some stolen bread.
	The Ukyo Ranma match up has it's problems as well.  First off, Ranma 
needs someone to restrain his ego, Ukyo will just feed it.  Also Ukyo is every 
bit as manipulative and possesive as Shampoo, just more subtle (As I recall when 
Nabiki became Ranma's fiance Ukyo and Shampoo tried to kill her, while Akane was 
prepaired to give up Ranma when she thought Nabiki would be a better fiancee).

	Well, just some thoughts of mine, I hope no one is TOO offended, after 
all their half interpritation.
