NOTE: Kaori is NOT a new character.  Like everyone else in 
this fic, Rumiko Takahashi made her up.  She's just not very 
well known.  I say this because some people have a reaction of 
"A name I don't recognize??  Must be one of those author 
insertion things.  Well, I didn't like Misadventures of a 
Foreign Exchange Student, so I'm gonna just delete this one."
(n.b The above is not offering the author's opinion of 
Misadventures.  It's just an easy one to cite.)

I do hate to nitpick, really I do, but Kaori was in the anime version of
Ranma only. Takahashi-sama did not create this character, somebody who
worked on that episode of the anime did. The same is true for Sasuke.
