Hi. The fanfic is fantastic. I would like if you continue it

I was a major ikarishipping fan back in the day, but now I've matured and my tastes have changed greatly. nonetheless I shall always hold this masterpiece close to my heart.

OMIGOSH, it was sooo good. Totally loved it.

That was literally fan-flipping-tastic!

if only there is a manga version of this...

I came across this fanfic when I was in my high school freshman year. Now that I'm a college student, coming across this fanfic gave me nostalgia. This is one of the best fanfics I've read like ever!

My stomach done flips and flops everytime the two interacted, especially after Shinji returned...soo cute! Please make more! Awesome writers like u HAVE TA continue writing so that little dummies like me can learn from the way u guys write! Just love it!

So I'll start by quickly admitting that I am NOT a fan of Dawn/Paul being called Hikari/Shinji. I dunno why, it just seems weird. I came very close to not reading this, and only did so after basically being forced to by one of my friends who's a bit more open to the names. You know what though? I'm glad I read it.

I was skeptical again at the beginning, what with Paul being such an ass and all, but then I realized that's really how his character should be written. Things improved from there. I'm a bit of a sucker for romance though, and so I was happy enough with the ending. I suppose it would have been nice to see a little more past the ending seen, however.

Anyway, nice work. Aside from the names (that's just me though lol), I wouldn't want to see anything changed!

Sweet Jesus this is such a realistical and accurate depiction of Paul and it your writing is so OP I CAN FEEL DAWNS SADNESS AND GRIEF

WOW,
Looking back I can't believe I haven't had the chance to review this story despite reading it a million times...
Anyways, I have to just say that I absolutely adore this story just because of the well kept Shinji character, and the idea of how his change of heart orrcured. Oh, and all those feels at the end...read it just now for the umpteenth time and was crying, in bed...took me about five minute to realize...:'D
Thanks for putting out such awesome stories, love you so much! (I will continue to re-read this stories for years)

It's cute! :-)

Wow...just...wow

Quite honestly, I think I'm rather picky with the fics I read. Before reading this I started and put down two others within minutes because the first never capitalized “Ash” and the second had far too many author comments inside the story itself. I can usually tell if I’m going to enjoy a fic by the first sentence because it lets me know what level the author is on. When I read the beginning of your fic I sighed happily and got comfortable. I am pleased to report it didn’t disappoint me in the slightest, and instead exceeded my expectations.

You have a more mature style than many other authors on here and it was one of the components that made your story a joy to read. I am aware that at some point most people leave the world of fan fiction, but if that day comes for you I hope you still continue writing in some form. The worst thing to waste is talent after all.

I felt Shinji and Hikari were delightfully in-character, and it only made Shinji’s change at the end more powerful. I haven’t yet had to write a character like him, but I can only imagine how difficult it must be to accomplish successfully.
The twist with Yuki was well done, at least in my opinion, and believable. I’m sorry you had to go through the same thing in real life.

The only thing I noticed was around the seventh paragraph. “...he dismissed them. Memories such as those shouldn't linger in his mind, it will only distract him from the intense training he has planned for today.” That last “has” sounds like a tense problem to me, but I could easily be misreading. Other than that my own level of skill isn’t high enough to find anything.

Overall, lovely story! Now if you’ll excuse me I have to go and see what else you’ve written

that was so sad . yet such a great ending!

i love this so mutch its adorable :D
