Okay, I'm lazy, so I took a lot of this from my first fic <plug> that you
can find along with my two other fics at
http://www.whitman.edu/~stoffell/ranma.html!!!</plug>

Anyway, what I like about Ranma:

Sure, he's a loudmouth macho
jerk sometimes--okay, a lot of times--but underneath the mask is a sweet,
caring young man.  Ranma makes enemies easily--things seem to just center
around him for some reason, making hatred-filled rivals through (usually)
no fault of his own.  And
although Ranma probably doesn't enjoy having people trying to beat on him
all the time, he never returns that hatred.  He gets annoyed, certainly,
but will jump to help anyone, whether friend or enemy, when they need him.
He will stick up for them, help them, without a moment's thought, without
any demands, without any reproach.  I think he considers even
his rivals as friends.  And when he lets his guard down, and lets his
softer side show through, he's just so sweet and vulnerable; you can tell
that he really cares a lot for people - not just Akane, but also Shampoo,
Ukyo, Ryoga, Genma, etc... He's even shown compassion for Happosai, of all
people.  Face it, beneath that macho exterior, Ranma is a Nice Guy.
