Answering to some scomments and questions....

Borderline OOC fer Ranma...But considering the fact that he recieved an
ENORMOUS power, speed and boost...He can make his own rules....^_^

=Pretty much.  My original theory of why Ranma is so against an arranged 
marriage is because he isn't in control of his own fate.  Ranma likes control 
imo, and here, he does have some control over the proceedings, so he isn't so 
adversed about the arrangement.

That, and he seems to have a bit of Goku mixed in hmmmm

=Hopefully not, in this case ^_^   Some personality traits of the saiyajin is 
shown here (love of fighting, which I believe is more of a genetic thing), 
and they will carry over into his normal form, though not nearly as heavily 
as in the saiyajin form.  Vice versa for Ranma traits in saiyajin form (yes, 
Saiyajin Ranma will put his foot in his mouth a few times).

Don't know about Akane yet... ...though it seems that he confidence is 
completely crushed now...

=Yes, Akane's confidence is pretty crushed right now.  Not only did she lose 
to a boy, she lost badly and in under five seconds, which really points out 
to her that she is no longer the best (hell, she might not even be in the top 
ten, if the best fighters are anywhere near SRanma's level).  I think that 
would be a depressing enough thought for her to chew on.

Nabiki, seems about right...

=Thanks.  Watched Nihao, My Concubine earlier, then thumbed through some 
manga volumes to get that one right.

Kasumi, hmmm...Smells ALMOST like ChiChi ^_^ (Image of her going after Ranma
with a Frying-Pan pops to mind fer some reason)

=ACK! ...well, now looking at it again...gonna have to do something about 
that... ^_^

Next....

Hmm... I don't know what to say. I think I have
seen this kind of "Ranma turns into a Saiyajin" story
before... Not very original, I must say.

=I know...of course, the Ranma turns into a Saiyajin stories I've read 
are...well, imcomplete, as they stop after the first chapter or three.

However, the
change brought onto Ranma IS creative; a lot of those
aforementioned stories had Ranma turning out to be
like
Goku.

=Gave it a little thought, but decided against it.  Recreating Son Gouku in 
Ranma's body was one thing I wanted to avoid here, and with him having some 
of the saiyajin traits within him should help with that problem.

Right now, he's starting to show a bit of
Vegeta,
and that's interesting... 

=Gaining a whole new class of power can do that to you, especially if you've 
been training under Genma for the last ten years.  Going against his personal 
rule of not hitting girls was part of the saiyajin's innate love of combat, 
though he did control himself pretty well up to that point (pulled his 
punches, too, even when fighting).

And will there be spring of
Drowned Namek, or mazokuniichuan?

=Most likely not, as I will pretty much be going against my original goal of 
not letting this turn into another Ranma becomes Gouku story.

Final one...

I do have to say I like the premise, Ranma's arrogance is back in force, as 
well it should be, he was the best, and now as he said, he's far beyond where 
he was before

=Thank you.  I hope I can keep it going.

though i did have one question, how will this curse affect ranma's normal 
form, Chi is of the spirit, and the big advantage of  being saiyagin is 
Saiyajin the amount of Chi they can harness, wouldn't that carry over a bit 
to his normal form,

=Aside from the modifications to his personality, Ranma's true form will gain 
a boost in his chi (not sure if that's the right term for it at the moment), 
though it won't be anywhere near his saiyajin form's level (probably about 
8-10% rough guessing).

and i'm surprised he didn't change back before the challenge match.

=Well, Ranma rather likes this form, and saiyajins love to fight....

I can't help but think of this form as a weapon, or a crutch, he's the best 
he knows it, he'd probably only use it when he had too, now it's swiftly 
becoming that cold water is a weakness, instead of hotwater becoming a 
strength...

=Hmm....you might have something going there...I'll keep that in mind.

t's a small difference, but one Genma would push for.  Granted as a coward he 
might be hestant to say too much right now...

=Heheheh...

Thanks for the comments.  I'll try to get the next chapter in asap.

Till then
