Not to continue, but to clarify:
You don't have to have official zones for things like martial artists. Having an official 'MADM Reserve' zoning classification that shows up on public records and avoids hiding those embarrassments from the which world defeat the point of hiding them. MADM would be an open secret in the Diet/local government. Major tax break/hikes for people that are/aren't cooperating (family dojos, noise ordinances, etc..)... The carrot works better against people who the stick breaks against went you poke them with it. This is also what they did in 'The Tick', they interviewed prospective heroes and if a 'hero' proved to be annoying, pointlessly stupid they sent them to The City. Out of other people's hair. It also helps if you can convince them that this segregation is their own idea.
Societies that dont adapt tend to crumple. Adaptations like large parks in space hungry Tokyo example of this. Like giving MADM Principle Kuno his own school to ignore in favor of Hawaii.
Which is how you get multiple Orochis. Different beasties, same name. It doesnt have to be that any are the real one its a nifty name with build in intimidation. Steal it! The Ranma one acts somewhat correctly, the one in Blue Seed really doesnt seem the type to get plastered (I have 8 seeds,. 8 seeds, 8 heads. Stealing name NOW!). The evil hate god again doesnt seem to be distractible in the saki and women way that Ive seen. Granted I havent dealt with that series/game, so I cant really comment and I havent watched Blue Seed in a while. It could be they are all wrong. Its like someone calling out Monster! and giving no other details. You could be dealing with Doberknocker, Xellos, or Johan Liebert All are monsters. Like calling facial tissue Kleenex. Its a good name, steal it.

Quote:The problem with vampires is that unlike Hollywoods version they have a thousand types. For instance death by sunlight was a trick based entirely on budget constraints and writing ones self out of a corner than actually applying to any real mythos (a nod to Dracula hunting at night.). Some even eat dung and not blood. I saw a interesting movie about a vampire hunter that had to go through a check list to figure out how to kill the vampire in question. First off it drained youth not blood. A break through occurred when one of his party was turned and agreed to let them kill him through experimentation. Drowning, hanging, wooden stake, etc proved useless until they figured out it took running him through with a cross a bit of forging later and we have a nifty sword of vampire doom.
Ranma is far enough from Sailor Moon in genre that each of them could exist in the others world. The only problem is why they don't notice each other, a much smaller problem than two incompatible rule sets for vampires.
