Again, there you-all go, picking on Kodachi...
any references?
(or is this another "all the fanfics I read portray her as insane" thing?)
Try reading the manga. She's rather clearly a fruitcake. She poisons her
own 'lover' without remorse (try any kodachi appearance), happilly ties up
Ranma (faked photo story), blackmails him with fake pictures (Faked photo
story), strews her own home with death traps (Faked photo story), shakes
hands with thumbtacks concealed in her hands (First appearance), and like
her brother can't catch a clue about Ranma/Ranma-chan, which even a dimwit
like Ryouga who can't recognize Ranma in girl form if he changes his
hairstyle understands. Not to mention electrocuting said boyfriend (Faked
picture story), etc, etc. She's off her nut.

"But I wonder whether people who ask God to interfere openly and directly
in our world quite realise what it will be like when He does. When that
happens, it's the end of the world....For this time, it will be God
without disguise; something so overwhelming that it will strike either
irresistible love or irresistible horror into every creature. It will be
too late then to choose your side...That won't be the time for choosing;
it will be the time when we discover which side we have really chosen,
whether we realized it before or not. NOW is the our chance to choose the
right side. God is holding back to give us that chance. IT won't last
forever. We must take it or leave it."
