Hey. I just stopped by to thank you for posting this fine piece of work. Sorry for not being able to actually give any helpful advice. I'm a little tired, so after a quick nap, I'll try to read some more.

wow... sucks to be her... REALLY sucks to be her. but they're not going to kill her? what will they plan to do to her then? seems a little weird...

that's a real **, to fight that long, hard battle, all to figure out the enemy has a plan B... bummer.

hurray for murdering! good stuff. the good ol' "i'm a helpless beggar" deceptoin... gets them every time.

overconfidence in his fighting ability? hmm, for his sake, i DO hope that his confidence is not unfounded.

ooh, news of Mao's assasination reaches the ears of the higher ups, and it instills fear in them all.

good... good...

you obviously are very good at this, and this chapter came a long time ago, I know, but upon reading it, I had to give you a review for two reasons.1)to tell you it's very good already, and I'll be reading the rest of it very shortly2)if Raijin made three slashes at Mao, would he not have falled into FOUR segments, not THREE? I'm a whiner, but it's a valid point.

*Glomp*^_^This makes me happy.I'm interested to hear more about Rajin's past and family, adds a new perspective to things.You get the fanart now. Didn't turn out how I wanted it to though.

*snoopy style happy dance*Yay for new characters...although the GAP between chapters makes reading it a little hard. I shall now go back and read it again because i discovered that I've forgotten a lot....write faster, wench.

*praise praise*

Very well done with Vex, you're getting his personality almost dead on. ^__^ Kato sounds like an interesting guy..though I have to wonder why someone would make a character and not do anything with him...

And do I sense another epic battle scene coming on, if you ever get around to updating agai? 'cause if tere isn't..*shakes fist*

Update again and I'll love you forever in a strictly platonic way. ^_^

You're in luck Blue, I am currently working on her character!
Unfourtunately Loki is a complete and total idiot who decided to take on two Advanced Placement courses without a spare, ergo, not much writing time. ^_^;
Besides, why should I do all the work when you're doing a wonderful job developing my characters for me. And doing a better job of it than I am to, you talanted bastard. =_=;;
On the other hand, rejoice! for I have a 5 day weekend! Writing time! Unless work decides to get their asses in gear and actually open, though judging from the last 5 months... anywho, I seem to be babbling, time to put this to work on a 15,0 word Lit essay, *sigh* wanna place a bet on when my mental breakdown will be?

Whe, Vex is such and **, and that is why we love him. //_^ Anywho, you made one little flaw at the end: no good swordsman would let the blood stay on his blade, otherwise it will get ruined, and then how would he kill people?
good chapter. Plan eh?
Loki-sama

do you even know all the differences you make in the characters? Because i can already see a lot of differences, such as Aneko's reason for fighting. But it's a good reason.
good luck on the job hunting (i finally got another job! ^_^)
Loki-sama

hahahah, when you descrobed Raigeki pictured him as Kenshin, and then in Kenshin's clothes, all in all, Raigeki is funny in a pink shirt. *nods* And another interesting image has to be Vex being tickled pink about anything.
A great chapter. //_^
Ja ne
Loki-sama

Aneko captured and Nakku as good as dead! Surprising.
