Ah - Ranma isn't Ranma without the training trip. When Nodoka is killed by the Kyuubi, Genma is distraught. Unable to handle the constant reminders of his beloved wife that surround him in Konoha, he takes his infant son out for a training trip, swearing to fulfil his wife's last wishes and make him a man among men. By the time of the Uchiha massacre, the members of the clan who knew him have all but written him off and forgotten about him. Certainly Itachi doesn't remember an uncle who he might have met three times when very young, or a cousin that he never met at all. They stumble back into town at some dramatically appropriate moment.

On the gripping hand, Sasuke and Ranma do have some remarkable similarities in their love lives...
