Character wise, this actually takes a serious look at how Harry and Ranma would change when dealing with severe personal trauma. Harry with losing his wife to childbirth; Ranma with failing to save Akane during the battle with Saffron. As both of them are now in their thirties, a lot of the hijinks and comedy is toned down, with the humor taking a more mature bent.
In the end, it is a story about healing and moving on from the past, with the relationship acting as a counterpoint to the story itself.
