Keep up your good work and have fun writing!

Dear LunarWaltz,

I have to admit that at the beginning I was interested but not very fond of your story, however, the more I read the more I started to like your fanfiction and at the end of this chapter I fell in love with it!
I like your writing style and the ideas you incorporate in it and I would love to read more of Karin and her story designed by you :)

Are you going to continue this fanfiction?

Best regards,

Kahori

Oh my gosh, it's been so long since I've read a fic with Karin as the main character. The first chapter was heartbreaking. I love what you've got set up and I love the OCs. Kei and Hana already sound awesome and the story has barely gotten started! We haven't even seen Hitsugaya yet. I really Renji's role here, I hope he'll be around more. I wonder if he already realized that she's Ichigo's sister.
I'm really looking forward to reading more

dang this was a whirlwind of a chappie. i am so happy its back XDDD

Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God! (aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa). Jesus Christ, I can't believe this is happening right in front of my eyes! You're back! I am crying so hard right now, you've no idea. This is a dream come true, I just can't believe. I thought you have left Exhale for good! I'm so excited I'm almost jumping through the roof!

Oh, dear! Karin has been dead for 23 years? That's quite a long, long time! To be quite honest, I didn't have realized she was 18 when she died. I thought she was sixteen or something, but it's nice to know more details about everything. I really, really like the fact that you didn't immediately make her enroll in the Academy. The greatest part of the fanfics about Karin dying and etc. just put her amidst the Shinigami, but I think that you made a realistic choice — she still had to get used to the fact that she died, that she doesn't have a family anymore and get into the Seireitei is no easy task, especially for an average soul. And the fact that she stayed in Rukongai to look after those children is wonderful. Again, not every writer in the Bleach fandom thinks much about Rukongai and the "normal" souls. They forget that it is an important part of the Soul Society, and is an important place for most of the characters in Bleach. I think you've made a hell of a good choice!

I love the new characters so much! Akiyama, Jun, and the other kids, they are such significant presences in Karin's life you just can't help but appreciate them just as much as she does. I felt really nervous when Jun got hurt the last chapter, but I am so glad that he is fine — and even if the situation is sad, I can't help but feel glad Karin found Renji again. I wonder what would be his reaction if he found out that Karin is Ichigo's sister.

Hanami and Kei are so lovely — especially Kei. Him putting Karin on his shoulder made me laugh hard. He is such a giant dork, and I really want him and Karin to be the best of friends! And Karin speaking her mind and being such a boss! Oh, man. If this is just the beginning I can't wait or the rest. She is a really good leader, and she is so brave! I think Karin is just one of those people who is made to be looked up to. She is kind, yet firm. I just love her, and I also love the way you write her.

To speak more seriously, I think that it was good that you described Karin having a panic attack. It is an awful experience, and many people don't know how to deal with it. You wrote it well, and the inclusion of such weakness in Karin is good because it makes us realize that she is what she is — human, just like you and I.

I am so happy, so glad! I think I almost wrote a bible here! I have so many questions for you! I hope that you'll post the next chapter soon.

By the way, I'm recommending this story on my Tumblr. I think that every fan of Kurosaki Karin needs to read this!

Much, much love and gratitude for you! Welcome back! ~

ohhh dang. this is getting better n better as i read it XDD hope to see more sometime

I love it!
