*looks at the last update date* ... *SCREAMS!* Well, I think that got the point across. Anyway, you are a fantastic author. I couldn't stop reading this fic (and I've read it all in one go pretty much ). The only constructive criticism is watch your grammar, but it really is not a biggie. I really like how you don't say, but show. Good going there. And I love the characterizations. Really. Write an original story and get it published! I swear, I'd buy a book writen by you!

Hey,

You know what? I think this has been the most hillarious chapter you have written so far, and as I think that was part of your intention, then do know that you made a great job. _

To the chapter itself:

Your Sakura was excellent, and most definitely pitiable, for who wouldn't go nearly crazy by being trapped like her? I loved the detail of her snapping at Syaoran's bit of soul for trying to comfort her, because that is such a natural and real scene that it would have been weird if done in any other way.

Your Eriol and Tomoyo were quite great, especially in their dialogues, for that's how I picture them talking once becoming more comfortable with each other. Your conception of Tomoyo having difficulties knowing her own heart is one I also share and that I think is the most accurate to the character. About Eriol, he strikes me more as someone who enjoys saying most of what he knows but in vague and cryptic ways instead of not telling the whole truth, although around Tomoyo and her sharp observation skills he might hold his silence.

Your worry about them being OOC is completely natural, because we never got to see them behaving like normal friends during the manga/anime, and so I will refer you to a fanfic I read a while ago that features a really nice Tomoyo and Eriol (plus being a very nice read in overall), in the hopes that it will aid you in writing these two in the future. Here's the link:

The story is called 'Icebreakers' but the part Two and Three are the ones that deal more with Eriol and Tomoyo. I recommend reading the three, though. Again, hope it helps you in someway.

Well, hope to see an update soon and take care,

Yami Umi chapter 11 . 5/17/2005
good chapter. I liked specially how you described syaoran anger and embarassment so well. And you did update sooner! well, I guess this is another point gained, I guess.
Animus86 chapter 11 . 5/15/2005
Hey,

First of all, let me tell you that I agree with Yami Umi's review. But you already knew that, right?

Now, to this chapter: The story goes along smoothly and that is always a peasure, plus the explanation behind Syaoran's explosive magic prompts many questions and guesses, to be answered in the future, I trust. Finally, I don't know if I said this before, but the way you handle the existance of magic in this new world of yours, and how people react to it and everything else asociated, is very good, even to the extent of being flawless.

And well, I hope to see an update soon, but most importantly is that you keep up the good work. Take care.

aw... UPDATE ASAP!
Yami Umi chapter 10 . 5/12/2005
Points(until now)

1- Wonderful plot, very deep and mysterious, yet in a language that everyone can understand. It really make me wonder what fate is. And I guess that was exactly your intention.

2- Sakura is changing, so the the little OOCness is acceptable. And, most importantly, you explained why, and it wasn't such a dramatic change, unlike some authors. Well deserved point.

3- Your fiction is entrancing, almost like magic, and you know the little moments to make the plot thicken. You have the ability to reveal the information in their due time. Most authors don't have this patience. In this fic, nor the reader or the character know what's going on and both know what will happen when it happens. Another good point.

4- You are an excellent writer, for reasons already determined, and you doesn't make things look like a "to do" list. You know how to write, and that is what really matters after all.

Points lost

...ahhn...

Well, You don't update often enough! Yeah! Update sooner!
xSkull.CanDiiee.Bitesx chapter 10 . 5/8/2005
Wow... this story is AWESOME! UPDATE ASAP! _
Animus86 chapter 10 . 5/7/2005
Hey,

At last the hoped for answer and, though rather expected, it was lovely to read it. Your handling of Sakura's inner turmoil that was to follow the answer was very well executed, plus let me say that I love when an author actually worries about the mental state of their characters. Very well done, and everything staying true to the character, which is marvelous.

Now, one thing that I have seen through your chapters is that there are some very little spelling mistakes here and there, and so my guess is that you post as you write, and while that is very good because the updates are faster (a thing we all love. ) some mistakes escape your care. A thing you can do to solve this is to simply re-read your writing before posting it, or you may recruit someone to do so. A beta-reader of sorts.

If you are to take this last path I offer you my services as beta-reader, but anyone with as good english as yours will serve; although, if you prefer to just re-read it or post it with mistakes and all, I will have no complain. What matters the most is the story itself, the grammar is just an accesory.

And well, you do not need to thank me for reviewing the story, because I am a writer also and know the importance of a good, constructive review. Instead, I am the one that should always thank you, for you are willing to share this very good piece of writing with all of us, and the least I can do is help you become better through encouragement and my advice, as poor as it is.

Hope to see the next chapter soon, and do take care.

Hey,

To see an update so soon is a joy, and to know that the next one will be ready soon is a greater joy, specially because you left us waiting for the Messenger's reply and there was none in this chapter, but I understand why you did that and so I only hope the next one may have that reply.

Now, onto this chapter: I liked the battle. It felt real, specially because you used well the fact that Syaoran hadn't battled in a while. My only comment is that a full trained warrior as Syaoran will have full control and conscience of each and everyone of his attacks, because that's what martial arts teach you, and so the fact of abandoning himself to instinct does not matches too well with the philosophy behind Martial Arts. The body is trained to react with the speed and naturality of instinct, but the mind is trained to be in full control and react swiftly. That's just a thought, though, so if you decide to follow it or not is your call, because either way I know you will do it well.

I would also like to add that I like quite a lot how you are handling the seer thing. Usually, the meaning of seers existing points to the existence of a set fate that says what's gonna be and thus reducing to a minimal human's free will, yet you are handling it in such a way that this does not happen, and so I applaud you.

Heh, I knew Arutha had to have some kind of power. Healing, huh? Very conveniant. _~

And well, I hope to see the next chapter soon, and, once again, thank you for sharing this story with us.

Hey,

It is nice to see a new chapter, and even nicer to see it progressing quite smoothly. Good job!

Now, just let me tell you that you are an evil thing for leaving the chapter where you left it, although I clap at your use of Sakura's denseness when it comes to matters of her heart. That is a defining trait of her, and you used it well.

Anyway, hope to se an update soon.
