What about Ichigo?!

Holy cow

Oh wow

OMG

Wow

What is the point of learning about waffles?

WHAT HAPPENED TO ICHIGO AND ORAHIME?

THEY WERE CHANGED INTO KIDS?

OH MAI GOD! HOW THE HEL DID HIS MEMORIES GET ERASED!-sque- :D

on to chapter 2!

I find myself loving this story. :) Though I do want to see what's going on back with Ichigo and Orihime, it would be strange to switch from Waffles' story just now. I look forward to the next chapter be it another set of diary entries or a return to the main plot.

This is a great story so far! This is probably the best HP/Bleach fanfic out there! Also, I congratulate you on the long chapters. It's a little irritating when a chapter is only a page long, and it makes the story disjointed.

I'm wondering how much Waffles (I love that name, makes me laugh) is really connected to the story, with the two entire chapters completely devoted to him. The story is still interesting, but it feels like Ichigo and Orihime were forgotten. I'm anxious to get back to them, to see what happens next! You left the story hanging in the preface after Ichigo and Orihime are sorted. (*Curse successful hooks*) But I don't think you should fully leave off Waffles yet, because you haven't made clear (or made a cliff hanger) about how he connects to the main story, and it would be a little meaningless if you abandoned him so suddenly, with how much you wrote about him already. Without a little fore-shadowing or new plot twist, he would seem just like a boring detail. What if the magic he absorbed is transferring into reiatsu? Now THAT would be cool. My main question is: Does Waffles eventually become connected to soul society and shinigami? What if he is visited or watched because of the new, strange powers he obtained?

Btw, are Jacqueline and Julian supposed to be identical twins? Because if they are, they should have the same gender. Only fraternal twins would be able to have different genders, and they wouldn't be identical, except in an extreme miracle (or magic, haha). I just noticed that because I'm an identical twin myself, so it really doesn't matter if you change their twin-status. (It doesn't affect the story line, anyway)

I know these will probably be answered later in the story, but I was just wondering:

Is Ichigo still a shinigami without him knowng it, or will he have to go through the transformation again, since it's before he met Rukia? Has he kept all the experiences that happened in the past? And will his and Orihime's reiatsu affect the people around them, like in Bleach? And I was wondering if Ichigo and Orihime would collaborate later on, because of the different events that they remember.

And if Waffles absorbed the wand's core, then his children should have (except maybe Adrian) inherited the magic-infused genetic code from his Dad. Or maybe Adrian's weird genetic magic hasn't matured yet, like from puberty, and his brothers just have regular magic... hm... Or maybe he will develop shinigami/hollow powers from Ichigo or his Dad, if his Dad has reiatsu or something like that... Or Adrian will just stay a minor character.

And maybe the villain attacking soul society somehow obtained powers from Waffles (maybe from being around him, or stealing them, I don't know), or is Waffles! Or someone else entirely, like Adrian or a different character who is coming to light later.

And it would be interesting if Ichigo and Orihime develop a relationship, without fully remembering their past! (Now there's some drama!)

Wow, that was a lot!

You don't have to answer any of those questions or even consider them, those were just my musings. I hope they gave you a little inspiration.

Update soon!

Yet another great chapter . Sorry for the late review. I didn't even review the last chapter ; School is really starting to get in the way. As for the next chapter, I think that you should continue and finish off Waffles' diary (or should I say journal?). I'm guessing that it would be a lot less confusing if you just finish this. I can wait another chapter or two more for the main plot. Waffles sounds like an interesting character. Also, you do pretty well on the battle scenes. Not many authors can do that. But there are so many swirls and flips that Waffles kind of looks like some ballerina or something . . . Well, anyways, I noticed at the beginning that you said that you never got to proofread this chapter. Well . . . it just so happens that I'm a BetaReader :D! I just have one story that I'm editing. I wouldn't mind beta reading this story. (I have no imagination whatsoever so I don't really write fan fiction) I've also noticed a few mistakes in there while I was reading. For example, when Waffles was getting a new wand, you wrote "watch" instead of "wand". But I understand if you don't trust some stranger to mess around with your work (I know I wouldn't). But still, this is a pretty awesome story you've got coming. I thought that it would just be a story revolving around IchigoxOrihime, but this is actually much better . Please continue!

I think it would be great if you could continue with the main plot - while this is extremely interesting, the story is listed under Bleach for a reason. It would be nice to have some more of the the main plot, and then you can come back to this.

By the way, I can't wait for Ichigo to unlock his memories and power. _ Voldemort and Aizen are screwed - especially if Ichigo gets a few extra years to train.

Cool this is interesting, I hope you update soon.

amazing! I love the diary entries! Can't wait for the next chapter! (I never new a wand could be sheathed...only a sword XD)
