	I personally prefer the Ranma vs. Kumon Ryuu or Ranma vs. Konatsu, or
even Ranma vs. Akane (v32).  Hiryu Shoten Ha doesn't fit my taste.  It's
like Hinako's attack.  In order to fight, you've to create chi.  When
you've a move that turns chi against the user, it's pretty hard to
overcome it.  Of course, I'm simplifying the issue considerable, but
that's how Hiryu Shoten Ha typically works out.  One of these days I'll
write a story and have Ranma lose while using the Hiryu Shoten Ha.  I
hate that move!  

	But seriously, the fight's not bad, just not as interesting as others. 
It basically involves Herb through a lot of chi blasts, Ranma counter
with a HSH and found out it didn't work, revised it, and beat him.  Not
that interesting if you ask me.

hardest ones on the list... for the reason that I forgot the exact
quote, but if you really know it, you should know what it is...
