What is the name of the school that Ranma and Akane attends?
Furinkan High? (Hey, don't look at me that way, it's been a while!)

Unless my memory is failing me at the moment (just woke up) then that is correct! Take it away Cliff!

Okay, this question comes from one of my favorite series, Kareshi Kanojo no Jijyo. Specifically, from the first episode.

Early on, Miyazawa Yukino didn't particularly LIKE top student Arima Souichiro (mainly because he WAS top student instead of HER!!). One example takes place during P.E. -- Yukino is demonstrating one sport to some of the other female students. However, Souichiro is with the guys playing another sport -- the sight of this draws the attention of the girls (away from Yukino

).

Suffice it to say, this didn't help to endear Arima-kun to Miyazawa-san. (Don't worry, these two get together soon afterwards . . . AWWWW!!

)

The question: What were the two sports being demonstrated, and by who?

Okay, this may be a little early (about seven hours early), but as there is no answer to the first question (yet), here comes a second one. Same drill as before.

Q 1:

Q 2:
This question comes from the series Martian Successor Nadesico. Specifically, the third episode. WARNING: Be very careful with the answer, as it involves one of the HUGEST SPOILERS in the series!!

By the end of the third episode, Nergal's new battleship ND-001 Nadesico has successfully gotten through all of Earth's defensive lines, including one involving mechas (Oh YEAH, Daigoji Gai was in on THIS!!). In celebration, Gai was going to decorate his Aestivalis with a particular item (or rather, multiples of this particular item).

The question: What was the particular item Gai was going to use?

Answer to question 2:

I'll put this into spoiler tags just in case:

Just in case that's no good, I believe that the girls stop watching Yukino's netball in order to watch Arima play football [soccer].

Well, MAS PRODUCTIONS gave essentially the correct answer to the Nadesico question: Gai had a set of Gekigangar stickers to decorate his cockpit. Although I DON'T think he got to actually use them by the end of Episode 3.

Savia DID get the correct answer to the KareKano question, although, to be honest, that's the first time I've heard of "netball" (Is it the same as basketball?). No question about the other sport; Arima WAS playing football, or soccer, depending on how you call it (GOOOAAAALLLLLLL!!!!).

Both gave correct answers; however, due to the time, the thread would have to go to MAS PRODUCTIONS (Sorry, Savia). Take it away!!

IIRC, netball is a derivative of basketball that does not allow players with the ball to move. Here at least, it's usually played in girl's sports classes, so I just assumed that was what it was when recalling the scene from memory.

I think that one of the other characters may mention that she plays netball at some point, but that's not necessarily true

Of course it's MAS' question- I was probably just showing off 8)

Ok, here is a Berserk question. Just in case I will put it in spoiler tags:

Berserk Spoiler wrote:In an attempt to kill Griffith, a poisoned arrow is shot at him.

The question is: What kind of poison was put on the arrow head?

I wish I knew the answer so the thread would keep moving.
