> Does anyone know who owns RANMA.COM? It is listed as registered with Network
Solutions:

I used to keep up with who owned ranma.com, .net, and .org.  Back when you could
pull more information out of NetworkSolution's WhoIs Database, I found that
ranma.com was registered to that guy way back in '95.  It appears that he's just
reregistering it just to hang onto it.

It used to point to viz.com, believe it or not.  Not sure why it doesn't anymore.

The fact that it doesn't point to Viz's site anymore tells me that it wasn't
registered by someone at Viz as I had previously thought.  Interesting.

Ranma.org is registered to some kid out in California that was selling illegal
burned copies of the Ranma PSX game (Battle Rennisance) on eBay.  He started to
build a pretty impressive Ranma site, but just stopped building it halfway
through.  Lame.

I know little about ranma.net.  I know that those guys are holding onto it, in
case someone wants to pay big bucks for it someday (like ranma.com, I suspect).
Keep in mind that there's other uses for the net besides the web.  You can
register a domain name and just use it for email, newsgroups, telnet servers, FTP

servers, or whatever and not necessarily have a web site.  It could possibly only

be used to just point somewhere, like ranma.com used to.

But then again, it could be doing just nothing.

> I haven't heard Kodachi's new voice yet, so I can't give an opinion on that.  I

kinda liked Bridgetta's raspy > voice better, but since she was there for such a
short time it's kind of futile to compare her to Venus (even > though that
piercing voice gets on my nerves sometimes, same as Megumi H.)  Richard's had a
whole > season now and he seems to be getting into Ranma's voice a little, but I
still prefer Sarah.

That's really weird, Bradster.  That sums up my thoughts on these VAs EXACTLY.
IIRC, you're the only other person I've ever run into that can't stand Ryoga
either.  Strange.  ^_^

Only thing different is that I actually have heard Kodachi's new voice.  It
doesn't really bother me that much, actually.  I admit that it's not as good, but

I think it's a fair replacement.  It doesn't sound too far off from the original
Kodachi.  Given the resources they had (and the fact that they had to deal with
Teryl leaving), I think they pulled it off pretty well.

Hmm.  I forget the new VA's name offhand.  Erin something.
