Just as an aside, I've always been a fan of ol' Ranma. Being American though, there's a bit of a cultural gap for a few things. For instance, what is the purpose of the bamboo canes popping out of each of the cursed springs? If the canes are growing from the bottom, or just stuck down into the springs' floor, then the springs aren't very deep, certainly not deep enough to drown an Ogre, for example.

Thanx DarkMWE,
Trust me - I've had many a thought about the whole Diz Princesses thing myself As for the bamboo canes coming up out of the water - I wonder if anyone has really asked that before. I think of it two ways - one is that bamboo can grow out of water like that - but it does seem convenient that each pool has just two poles - which brings me to my next conclusion. I just think it was convenient to have them there for Ranma and Genma to fight. Could have also been some backstory with this place being a fighting arena of sorts and therefor the poles were put there on purpose and the loser becomes a TF victim for life. There are so many pools - it just seemed like so much more TF fiction could be mined from it.
