Talk:Ranma Saotome

Why is er not a page of Picolet Chardin?

He's Ranma's rival to.

And ranko is loved by Picolet Chardin...

You can show Ryoga as Ranma best Rival without being so biased.

Please divide the section of Anime and Manga into different sections.Furthermore dividing Viz and the Japanese manga into two sub sections. The characters and their relationship are very different in the anime vs the two mangas.

I'm a serious Ranma and Ryoga fighting fan and have seen their relationship as Destined rivals in the Anime and somewhat Goku and Vegeta relationship in the manga. The article shows that the author of this article has only sa w the anime and attempted to combine the two with the Anime being the major influence.Showing Ryoga in a far better light than he should've.*skip to IMPORTANT to show you don't need to lie/hide information to show Ryoga in a positive and as Ranma only  'eternal rival'  *

Don't do this or you'll weaken your argurment to anyone who actually read the manga.

I'm surprise that the forgo to add  that Ryoga 'defeat' of Ranma was mostly due to enchantments.Which was admitted in the Ryoga 'talk' section when another commentor argue with the main script writer.Therefore lwoering Ryoga win ratio to less than 1/6.Secondly,Ranma is depicted as BUTT MONKEY and get blamed by everyone for their problems.Moouse/Akane/Kuno/Genma(even after he admits he can't beat Ranma) all have shown to beat Ranma by a surprise attack more than Ranma beats them on screen. This further shows that crediting Ryoga defeat of Ranma using short battle is completely biased and uncalled for without adding that it might unfairly show Ryoga in a better light due to the show comedy nature.

PS: Ranma role of butt monkey in the story.This is a literacy technique to compesnate for his amazing learning curve and having a harem of pretty girls after him. The author of Ranma outright admits this and it being funny was the primary reasons for it.

IMPORTANT-You can still make Ryoga as Ranma enternal rival without using incorrect statements and being deceitful.

If you want to debate that Ryoga was Ranma near equal.Its entirely possible by using Ryoga defeat of an enraged female Ranma in the latter arc when she got brainwash to loving him.Of course the female Ranma is 'weaker/slower' than the male and have less ki(herb).Nontheless, the female form of Ranma was capable of fighting Tarou for a while and even defeat a non-serious Happosai and her father Genma.A feat that Ryoga also did by effortlessly blocking Genma Bear(stronger) form.Making Ryoga Ranma closest 'rival'.Thought whether its actually due to Ryoga potential(talent which I humbly disagree against),raw stats(author stats) or tenacity/luck Its for another time.

PS:Show how Ryoga statement of his increased in speed in the herb arc combined with Ryoga beginning to use 'intelligence against Ranma mirrors Ranma vs Ryoga in the past. Showing that Ryoga is on the foot step of Ranma.(In speed)

Also,please remove the ten time stronger than Ranma from the article.That combined with Ryoga toughness training would imply that Ranma got insane stamina since he tends to take more hit than Ryoga.Also don't said that

Ryoga was keeping up Ranma due to being self-taught alone.Its highly imply Ranma was superior to Ryoga( beginning) due to Ranma(female) vs Moouse showing.

Its was only due to Colonge and random travelers that Ryoga was able to keep up with Ranma and it would be misleading saying otherwise..

 * Firstly, although the article does require a separation between the anime and manga (as per the layout guide), it does not need to have the manga section split between the original and english translation as the differences are extremely minor and mostly relate to changing of cultural puns. Secondly, if you see a way the article can be improved you are free to edit it. The page is only locked against new and unregistered users to prevent spam given its high traffic. --Trivi-AM (talk) 17:36, May 14, 2013 (UTC)
