    Summary

    How do you rebel against a father like Genma Saotome? When Ranma decides to take up the idea of teenage rebellion soon after their pops accidentally dunks them in a cursed spring, they pretty quickly come to a conclusion: become everything Genma doesn't want them to be. Genma says they have to be a man amongst men? Ranma will embrace their girl side. Genma rants against schooling, wants her to just be a dumb jock? Well, Ranma better start hitting the library.

    In the process of rebelling against her dad and becoming everything he wouldn't want her to be, well, Ranma finds out that she likes what she's becoming. She likes being a girl and everything that comes with it, and she loves eating up all the knowledge she can get her hands on like its some new martial arts technique. She'll still keep up on her martial arts training, when Genma isn't looking, of course.

    And now in Nerima she's swept off her feat by her beautiful fiancée, and is starting to make friends, but Nerima is filled with Mysteries that continue to follow them. She doesn't need to worry though. Between her, Akane, Hibari, and Gosunkugi, she's confident that they can handle anything.

    Summary

    When she was young, Akane Tendo used to dream of magic. The kind of magic that could let a girl like her become the woman she knew herself as. As she grew up, she knew that sort of magic wasn't meant to be.

    Until one day, she meets someone who shows her it's real, and now it's all she's ever wanted.

    Summary

    Akane had never seen a cat that was pink before. Akane, gently trying to remove the cat from the thorns, hoped it wasn't blood stains, and luckily it wasn't. The poor thing was small and shivering though, and there were clearly scars under that supernaturally pink, dirty fur. No collar either… Scared eyes as blue as clear skies looked up at Akane as she held it gently.
    -------------

    Ranma gains an extra layer to his curse the first time around, having to grapple with fear and frequently boiling water. Akane doesn't think that's good for him.

    Summary

    What would you do if you woke up, and realized your life was nothing more than a blissful dream?

    For Akane, the answer is simple, if painful. Grit her teeth and move on. Forget the happiness she found, and try to find what she can in the real world.

    Except one day, she finds her imagined world isn't quite as out of reach as she thought.

    All she needs is to take the first step.

    Summary

    When Ranma Saotome was three, he picked up an interest in art, and asked his mother and father for a box of crayons. Instead, his father gave him a gi and promised to make him strong. When Ranma Saotome was five, he asked his mother to teach him how to cook. Instead, she sent him to go practice kata with his father. When Ranma Saotome was seven, he tore a hole in his gi, and asked his mother to teach him how to fix it. Instead, she told him to put on a new gi while she fixed his ruined one.

    All his life, Ranma had been forced into a box by his parents, and all his life, he’d sought more than their dreams for him. But his own dreams withered with age, and by sixteen, he would tell anyone who asked that he was going to be the greatest martial artist of all time, a man among men.

    Until one fateful day, when a training accident left him with a unique predicament, and he found himself questioning everything about who he was and who he was supposed to be. Now all he has to do is navigate telling one little lie after another and hope the snowball of deceit and guilt doesn’t crush him entirely.
