Hi!

Today the #8 of Shounen Sunday finally has arrived. 
It costs 10,30 DM = 6,80 $. Is this price normal or high? What do you
pay for an issue of SS ?

(BTW On the top of p. 246 is written: "Shonen Sunday". Is this the
 correct spelling or is it "Shounen Sunday?)

Hmm...yes...perhaps you want to know something about the new 
Ranma-story. But as I can't read any word of japanese you will have to
wait for the summaries from Xavier Hardy and Christopher Rijk, if you
want to get exact and detailed informations ;-) 
BTW Thanx for the great summaries, Xavier and Christopher!

Warning! Spoilers!

At the begin of the story, Safran and Shampoo are still in the eggs. Ranma,
Ryoga, Mousse, the guide and Plum are standing around Shampoo's egg, when
suddenly Genma (as Panda) appears. He attacks Ranma and Ryoga immediately.
While these two fight against Genma, Mousse imagines the wonderful times 
with Shampoo, after he will have broken the egg.
But then the wall caves in (because of the things happening with safran's
egg) and shampoo's egg is damaged.

Which person will she see first? Will she become the "slave" of Mousse,...
or Ranma, ... or Ryoga? Guess again! :-)
When Shampoo appears she looks at.... a mirror! And therefore she turns back
to normal! (I think so, because she hugs Ranma and does not pay
attention to Mousse, although she saw him first.)

And then Safran's egg breaks into pieces and the whole room breaks into
pieces, too. All persons are falling down to the cavern, where the rest of
Safran's egg lies.
But who appears out of the egg and what will happen then is another part
of the story and will be told in the regular summary...

(hey...I told you this will be a MINI-spoiler! :-) )
 
BTW If someone is interested in a german summary (german lurkers or people,
who study this language ;-) ), it would be no problem to post it per e-mail.
Just inform me with an e-mail.

The SS #9 and #10 have been ordered today ;-)

Sayonara!
