Honorifics-can be used sarcastically as well.
-san: Used when addressing someone you don't know, or don't know well. Indicates high degree of formaility
-kun: term of endearment for friends, usually boys
-chan: term of endearment for girls, also used by girls for their boyfriends

Attack names-you can find these by going back a page and looking under the specific character
I know I'm not the best author in the world, and some of the characters may be OOC, and all I can say is I'm not the genius Rumiko Takahashi is. I will try my best and I think my writing will improve as I go along. Heh, I think you could compare my writing to Akane's cooking!
By the way, I'm different from every other author I know because I like ALL the characters. I know people have their favorites and despise others, but really, everyone has both their good points and bad points. I really hate it when authors write a biased story exemplifiying all of a single characters bad points just because they hate them. To this end, I'm going to try to work evenly on all of them. Hopefully, some of them will grow into better people as they grow up. Oh, I don't really hate anyone, but if you pressed me for favorites and such, I would say Ranma and Akane are the ones I like the best, but I like everyone. If I had to hate someone... well, Happosai and Kodachi, but I don't really hate them. Just a mild dislike.
Now, I don't want any flak over who I pair up, especially if I'm not using your favorite pair. Even if it is the standard pairing, I'm just going by the evidence I find in the manga. Now, not everybody is specifically spoken for. If you think a certain two people should get together, let me know and give evidence to support it. Otherwise, I'll experiment around and see what happens. Only one particular couple is set in stone (And I think you know who), because it's so obvious they love each other and I'm a romantic at heart. I'm not a dark and depressing person, so don't expect too much of that kind of stuff, but I may include some, just for variety.
