"Well, they seem kinda nice," muttered Ranma, trying to find some good in this situation. Also scary, but he wasn't going to say THAT.
The village had been spooky. Then there were those gals he kept running into at odd times.
At least he'd left those problems behind.
She was of the Joketsuzoku, the Nichieju. A village of warrior women who had some really bizarre customs and laws that had been discovered by the Tribals and the usual mingling had taken place.
As a result of the Tribals, considerably more people knew of them at this point. There were even Chinese Amazon fanclubs and otaku.
