YMMV / For His Own Sake

• Catharsis Factor: Finally seeing the more Jerkass tenants of Hinata Inn, especially Naru, ultimately getting what's coming to them is this as they had gotten away with a lot of crap without consequence.
• Jerkass Woobie: Akane Tendo. She is a short tempered girl, but she is also heartbroken over her failed relationship with Ranma. She’s more on The Woobie end of this trope, since she clearly regrets her own behavior and that it played a role in destroying the romance between her and Ranma. What's worse is that not only does she regret it, she also has grown enough to realize that neither Ranma nor her were ever really suitable as a couple, and despite their feelings, it's not meant to be.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • Su deciding to send a machine to drag Keitaro back and Mind Rape him into being a Extreme Doormat for the girls was already bad enough, but then she unleashes her robots on innocent people, mistakenly thinking they would love to play with them. It is this act that causes all her loved ones to cut ties with her.
  • Akemi Kuga making the False Rape Accusation against Takeru that led to him being murdered by Kagura. In the final chapter, she expresses no remorse, instead blaming Kagura.
  • Naru, Kagura, and Chisato flat-out kidnapping Keitaro in the penultimate chapter. Individually, Naru, who has already crossed the Horizon at this point, viciously beating Keitaro and admitting to Mutsumi she manipulated her, Chisato throwing Mutsumi and ordering she be killed as well, and Kagura abandoning them to escape the police. Notably, these three, and Akemi, are the only ones who never change their ways. Every other antagonist, even Mutsumi who participated in the kidnapping, has a Heel Realization.
  • Sarah's Spoiled Brat behavior spikes when she started ranting to Seta how much she hates him for putting her in the strict boarding school and shouting out that her life would've been better if Keitaro just died, shocking Seta. At that point, he decides Sarah is a lost cause and leaves her to her fate.
• Unexpected Character:
  • Ranma from Ranma ½ appears in the story.
  • Ritsuko Akagi from Neon Genesis Evangelion also makes an appearance.
