Black Paw? I read all of it. In one sitting.
...I'm not sure why. Possibly because I actually like Gold Digger. This is a Ranma/Gold Digger cross, by the way.
Mmm. Anyway.
As a piece of writing, it's not that good. The sheer ridiculous Sue-ness of this Ranma has already been touched upon. The character relationships are not handled as well as they could be, and in places feel glossed over.
The writing is adequate, mind you. It is decent prose. The fault doesn't lie in the language used, but rather the content and construction of the story, and the portrayal of the characters. It's a common problem with stories of this kind, but what we're looking at isn't really Ranma anymore - just a generic God-like OC with his name and face.
Why did I read it all?
Well, it's got a certain fascinating train-wreck quality to it...and the author does have some interesting ideas, and the sheer wild over-the-top-ness actually fits a Gold Digger story quite well.
Plus, I was feeling mildly depressed yesterday afternoon, and needed something long and mindless to take the edge off it. This accomplished that admirably.
