I remember reading several stories in which Ranma leaves and joins a band, like Blind by Magnus DeWinter, or Misunderstanding Scars by Lov3the3vil and I was wondering if anybody knows any more. He doesn't have to leave nerima or be male, but I prefer if he joins a band however a fic about Ranma singing, or playing a musical instrument would be good. Well you get the picture, im looking for a musical Ranma.

The best fic I've ever read with a musical Ranma is Ranma and Akane: A Love Story. Music isn't the focus, but it's used, and used well, throughout.

Thanks, I think ive read this years ago but cant remember anything about it so Ill give it a read again. I just realised the most perfect story for my search which I'll probably read again as well. Genma's daughter.

Although it might not come up technically all the times Ranma is in a fusion tale raking the place of Michiru or more rarely Haruka, even Rei is a well known musical character unfortunately in those fusion stories it doesn't always come up.

I can't remember the name of it properly right now, but I thinking was Minako's Story, where Ranma and Mina get swept back in time to save Venus and after a while, the other senshi join in and they eventually return as a group of singers to save the earth from the big freeze...though I could be wrong, it's been almost 5 years since I read it

Hmmm...

Generally not something I care for, but I've come across it a few times.

For emotional invoking art forms in general, there is the Breaking Chains saga by the Grum... in at least one version, Ranma and Ranko return to nerima and to get a flow of money he makes and sells unusual emotion invoking art. They also can record a performance emotion and all into a crystal plant, that can then have a leave placed on water and the performance is replayed. Ranko in one of the world crossing threads crossing with star trek is able to bring a ten forward lounge to tears by perfoming.

'A Little Motherly Love' by Celeste Byrd also comes to mind for unusual musical talents in a Ranma story.

There's always the Genma's Daughter series, where Ranma is a violinist.

This one doesn't really fit, but it's a great fic with good use of music
