Keiichi.
Except why write him as a 14-year old?
Keiichi was written as a 14 year old for two reasons. One of them is
that (as I've said before) I didn't want Belldandy to have even more
problems than she has now, which meant I had to do something to make
Keiichi unavailable. The second reason should be clear to anyone who's
seen/read OMG and knows the main premise of the series. ^_^
Let's see. If Keichi had been like the origional, the series romantic
conflict would have been double sided. Ranma loving Akane, and yet having
to deal with his memories of being in love with Belldandy, while Belldandy
would be conflicted between her feelings for Ranma and how she was
increasingly feeling about Keichi.
By removing Keichi from the picture it allows you to simplify and
somewhat de-emphasise the internal Romantic conflicts so that only Ranma has
to deal with the problem of being in love with two women at once. He's
going to feel some sympathy for Kuno by the time the story's run it's
course.
It was wise of you NOT to have his father around even though you had
scenes
at his house. A suggestion, for the duration of the story keep his
father
out of town. Unless you've actually read the latest chapters from Japan,
you'll probably get him wrong. I can forward you summaries of the latest
story arc where he appears.
One of the hazards of writing for a series that is still in print. ^_^
Anyway, as for your question, yes, I'd really appreciate it if you sent
me the summaries you've mentioned (privately, of course).
P.S.
Just a quick note. Both in this story and in the NGE crossover, there's
some level of fusion between the two series I'm using. Since I can't say
where it happens because then I'd have to disclose several plot
elements, I've decided to label them simply as crossovers.
