				This thread encompasses any of the many sites in Nermina that have been shown in the series, such as:<br><br><div align="center">(http://images.wikia.com/ranma/images/d/d1/S05-13-Uuchan%27s.jpg)</div><br><strong>Ucchan's Okinomiyaki</strong><br><br>Much like fellow business, the Nekohanten, Okonomiyaki Ucchan's is a small, two-storied restaurant established in the Nerima area by one of Ranma Saotome's fiancees, namely Ukyo Kuonji. It is unknown where precisely it is established, but it is possible that it is closer to Furinkan High School than it is to the Tendo Dojo, as it is quite popular with the lunchtime and afterschool student crowds. It is much smaller than the Nekohanten; the lower level is dominated by the counter/grill at which the clientele sits and Ukyo works and the stores for Ukyo's ingredients, while the upper level is Ukyo's living space.<br><br><br><div align="center">(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100814050558/ranma/images/3/39/OAV-13-Shampoo_Restaurant.jpg)</div><br><strong>Nekohanten or Cat Cafe</strong><br><br>This is a small, two-storied Chinese restaurant established by Cologne and Shampoo after they moved to Nerima in order to both give them a place to live while seeking to entice Ranma to marry Shampoo and to provide financial support. After moving to Nerima himself, Mousse establishes himself here as well. The building is evidently fairly close to the Tendo Dojo; Kasumi describes it has having been set up "just around the corner".<br><br>The upper half of the building is the residential area, where Cologne and Shampoo, and presumably Mousse, sleep, eat, bathe and relax while not working or interacting with the other martial artists of Nerima. The lower half is the well-cared-for restaurant proper. Cologne oversees the whole operation and seems to be the usual cook, while Shampoo and Mousse are both laborers; Shampoo tends to focus more on waitressing and deliveries, while Mousse is typically stuck with cleaning up. The Nekohanten is fairly popular with the locals, due to a combination of its delicious cuisine, the entertainment factor of seeing frequent fights and martial arts displays break out, and the attractive female waitress. <br><br><br><div align="center">(http://cdn.static.ovimg.com/episode/220582.jpg)</div><br><strong>Public Baths</strong><br><br>Bath houses are a common sight in Japan, where public bathing is a widely accepted social norm. With facilities seregated by sex, people of all ages, occupations and social standings come here to clean themselves and relax. Because of the importance of hot water to the many Jusenkyo cursed members of the cast, Ranma 1/2 sees the interior of a bath house on a regular basis.<br><br>Happosai particularly enjoys bath houses as his stalking grounds, almost as much as changing rooms; he can raid the lockers in the women's section for his craved lingerie, and then try to peep on the women while they bathe. <br><br><br><div align="center">(http://www.rubberslug.com/user/0c5e613b2b6c4823b81c75ac9413e7ef/820960-9105079-SC%20RA0034G-3%20%28TV9%2011_58%29YJ%20w47140950.jpg)</div><br><strong>Streets of Nerima</strong><br><br>These are the streets of the town of Nerima, Japan.&nbsp; There is a canal (with a fence that one with sufficient balance can walk along) that runs into a river where boats are often seen milling about.&nbsp; Any scene that takes place on the streets can be here.<br><br><br><strong>Vacant Lot</strong><br><br>These seem to be everywhere in Nerima.&nbsp; Have your battles here and avoid property damage!&nbsp; ;D<br><br><br><strong>The Beach</strong><br><br>Fun in the sun!&nbsp; Come to the beach and relax...<br><br><br><strong>Kuno Estate</strong><br><br>The Kuno Estate is a large, traditional styled Japanese fortress present in Nerima, Tokyo. As the name suggests, it is the ancestral home of Principal Kuno, Tatewaki Kuno and Kodachi Kuno. It is not a place to be visited carelessly; the Kunos do not appreciate uninvited guests, and Kodachi's pet, Mr. Green Turtle, actually a giant crocodile, is allowed to roam the estate's many streams and ponds freely. In the anime, at least, it is also a great maze of secret passages, hidden chambers and underground tunnels, as well as being riddled with traps. Sasuke Sarugakure is also the chief guardian of the estate, attacking trespassers and luring them into its myriad defences with equal fervor.

				Lei Bao busily ran about in the back of the Cat Cafe, quickly reorganizing the food storage for more efficiency. When she wasn't busy organizing things under the orders of Cologne, she often helped Shampoo with deliveries.<br><br>"This is too too good, make better for Cologne!" cheerfully chirps to herself, pleased with her handiwork. As she turns to walk out, spots an adorable little mouse. "TOO CUTE!!!" as she runs to pounce on it, the poor little creature rightfully trying to get to it's little home. Sadly, it doesn't make it as it finds itself being cuddled.<br><br>"Oh you so precious! I call you Bubbles!" Lei sings to herself, the mouse more or less resigning itself to being her play toy for the moment.

				<hr> <div align="center"><strong><em>Cat Cafe</em></strong></div> <hr><br>The poor mouse's eyes about bugged out as it was cuddled by the Chinese girl.&nbsp; As per usual when a cute new girl was working at the restaurant, the place was pretty packed with guys.&nbsp; They watched in amazement as the neko-looking girl accosted the hapless rodent.&nbsp; From out of nowhere, Mousse hugged Lei Nao tightly from behind, his thick glasses pushed up in his hair as he cried out.<br><br><strong>"I love you, Shampoo!&nbsp; Now that the new girl is working for your great grandmother, that means we can run off and be married!&nbsp; You're happy, aren't you?!"</strong><br><br>Nearby, Shampoo shook her head and glared coldly at Mousse.<br><br><strong>"Stupid Mousse.&nbsp; That no Shampoo."</strong><br><br>Mousse blinked at Shampoo, before looking back to who he was still squeezing.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>"Huh?&nbsp; If you're not Shampoo then who-?"</strong>

				"Silly Moose! Me no Shampoo, me Lei Bao!" giggles, still holding the rodent.<br><br>Stands up and giggles a bit. "You think Lei Bao pretty? Too too sweet!" leans over and gives Moose a large glomp, although it is probably far tighter than it should be with her mechanically enhanced arms. <br><br>Looks up seeing people watching her with the mouse and just grins. "Who want hold mouse?" holds up the rodent, who doesn't seem to want to be held much at all but can't get out of Lei's kung-fu grip. "It very soft! Too too soft!"<br><br>Turns to Shampoo. "You want hold mouse? Bubbles very good, or is it time to deliver ramen?" her mechanical tail twitches as she eagerly awaits whatever is coming.

				Mousse looked horrified at his mistake... he did after all only have eyes for Shampoo, even though Lei Bao was quite cute.&nbsp; He was about to speak when he was glomped, his face turning blue as she squeezed him tightly.&nbsp; Shampoo narrowed her eyes and smirked, looking quite wicked.&nbsp; Her thoughts were running at 90 miles per hour... <em><strong>'Shampoo make Mousse and Lei Bao too too happy couple... then Mousse give up on Shampoo and Shampoo get Ranma for husband!&nbsp; Is good plan... but how Shampoo do it?&nbsp; Aiya!&nbsp; Shampoo know just how do it.'</strong></em>&nbsp; <br><br>The men at the restaurant smiled nervously at Lei Bao.&nbsp; They were more than happy to watch a cute girl at work but weren't too sure about one who stuck rodents in their faces.<br><br>Shampoo's face changed again as she was addressed by her fellow Chinese 'sister', changing into an innocent looking mask of cheerfulness.&nbsp; She held up a hand and grinned.<br><strong><br>"No want hold mouse, Lei Bao.&nbsp; Is time for you deliver Ramen to school!&nbsp; I need stay here and work on next order."</strong>

				Lei Bao nods, her cat ears twitching contentedly as she stands up and gently sets the mouse down. "You go play now, I back later for you!" <br><br>Scampers to get the order. "Who I look for?" For Lei Bao, deliveries were quite easy (when she wasn't distracted by cute fans, or cats, or dogs, or flowers....etc.) She could move incredibly quickly, even more so when dowsed in cold water. But she hadn't told anyone about that yet.<br><br>Looks at Mousse and grins, "You watch Bubbles, make sure he no escape". After a few moments of making sure where she needs to take the ramen to,&nbsp; scampers out the door, leaving a trail of cloudy dust and a few patrons on the ground from the breeze as she passed by.

				<div align="center">(http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x158/Punstarr/ShampooSmile.jpg)</div><br>Shampoo smiled as she spoke to Lei Bao.<br><br><strong>"Aiya!&nbsp; This one special special order for Akane Tendo.&nbsp; You find her at Furinkan High School.&nbsp; Make sure she eat, is so good."</strong><br><br>After she had left, Shampoo's smile darkened and she laughed, confident that all was going according to plan.&nbsp; Again she was left alone with her thoughts.&nbsp; <strong><em>"Now all Shampoo need do is wait for Akane to eat special rice balls.&nbsp; She fall in love with first person she see and Shampoo have Ranma all to self.&nbsp; Shampoo go distract Ranma so he no one she see."</em></strong>&nbsp; She turned to Cologne who had been watching the escapades very carefully.&nbsp; Cologne leaned on her staff and her eyes narrowed in concern as Mousse remained out of it on the floor.<br><br>(http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/23600000/Shampoo-wicked-ranma-1-2-23604269-1140-912.jpg)<br><strong><br>"Be very careful, child.&nbsp; That love potion you mixed in with those rice balls is very strong.&nbsp; Even the emperor of the Xin Dynasty lived in terror of it's power.&nbsp; You only have one shot at this.&nbsp; You know you could have just fed it to my future son in law and that would be that."</strong><br><br>Shampoo shook her head as she sighed.<br><strong><br>"No want Ranma love Shampoo like that.&nbsp; Want Ranma love Shampoo for real."</strong><br><br>Cologne nodded solemnly.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>"Then you had better hurry if you want to make sure that he is not the one that falls under the potion's spell."</strong><br><br>Shampoo grinned and nodded, making her way out the door.<br><br><strong>"Is true.&nbsp; Shampoo be back!"</strong><br><br>Outside, she hopped on her bicycle and began pedaling down an alternate route toward Furinkan High School, a shortcut that not many knew about.

				<strong>Streets of Nerima</strong><br>Walking down the road, Gentatsu felt elated at the thought of finally coming to grips with the diminutive dwarf who had singlehandedly made him see hell.&nbsp; For a moment he considered his surroundings and stopped.<br><br>“Where am I?” he wondered, before cursing his own bullheadedness at having rushed off without thinking about his destination.<br><br>Looking about he heard the sound of school kids. &nbsp;“Ah, the school must be near.”&nbsp; It would be a good chance to look over the grounds where the duel was to be held and he began to stride off in that direction.<br><br>Looking upward, there were few, if any clouds in the sky, but that was never a guarantee of a safe day for Gentatsu Makashima.

				Gentatsu was nearly to the school when he heard footfalls.&nbsp; No, it couldn't be footfalls... they were too fast.&nbsp; Hrm... but where was it coming from?&nbsp; It was difficult to tell.&nbsp; A spark darted across his senses as he detected an aura nearby... stronger than average.&nbsp; Then the dust cloud rounded the corner and Lai Bao was upon him... literally.&nbsp; The two would collide as Lei Bao was too preoccupied with getting to Akane Tendo quickly and Gentatsu was trying to figure out where the aura was coming from.&nbsp; As the two of them lay crumpled in a heap, Lei Bao on top of Gentatsu, she would realize that her delivery box is nowhere to be seen.&nbsp; Where could it be?&nbsp; Flying high through the air in the direction of the school of course!

				Lifts herself up, her eyes wide and teary eyed as she rubs her head, her cat ears down. <br><br>"Owww.......it hurt too too much......Lei Bao so sorry..." looks down at the guy she was suddenly sitting on, for a moment studying to see how cute he was. "You ok? You want go to doctor?" leans in, her green eyes sparkling a little, ears perking up a bit with concern. He wasn't too bad at all as she hoists herself off of him with a quick speed.<br><br>"No time talk now, late for delivery! Is ok!? Ok!" the hyper young girl dashes off and catches the delivery box before it even comes close to touching the ground.

				Lying in the ground, Gentatsu looked at the sky.&nbsp; And after a moment he crossed his arms, as though wondering what exactly had happened.<br><br>“A girl... a girl with cat ears,” he repeated more for his own benefit than any other, as though it were all a little hard to comprehend.&nbsp; But then again, he had never been to Nerima before.&nbsp; Clearly not Japanese from her accent, but pretty nonetheless.<br><br>“W-wait just a second!” he stumbled as her head came down close enough to see how green her eyes were, not being used to girls being so over familiar.&nbsp; Then she was gone.<br><br>Watching in astonishment as she dashed off, Gentatsu Makashima followed slowly after her towards Furinkan High.
