Just read the first two chapters of Rin-Ne on the Viz website http://therumicworld.com/manga.php and was immediately struck by two things:
1.) He looks exactly like Ranma except for the red hair. Which only underlines the parallel as he could have it from his paternal grandmother.
2.) Constantly asking for payment instantly brings to mind Nabiki. Also the scheme with the old weather box, and the general taking advantage of his powers (to a point anyways).
Perhaps Takahashi-sensei has had second thoughts on the matchup in her old Ranma manga and has resolved to correct that error (if only vicariously) in her new endeavour. ^_^
Eventually, once we learn more of this new setting, inspiration might strike a time or two.
Anyone have similar thoughts? Or do I just need to be told I'm posting in the wrong section? :huh:
