Reviews For: The Curse of the Hoshi No Tama Necklace
Chelseamuffin. 2007-06-02 . chapter 4
Haha, I was seriously about to PM you to ask when you'd be updating. I am so special :]

--I like the woman. Just because she bugs Mikomi so much, I guess. Those characters make me laugh.

--A mind-reader, huh? That's pretty cool. People don't usually use them anymore. I like it.

--Okay. Major pet-peeve here, but this one's only my personal (not prefessional) opinion, so you can ignore it if you want to. When OK is typed, it bugs me. I prefer Okay. Again you can ignore that, it doesn't change anything in the story or anything. I just wanted to throw that out there.

--“What do you think? The necklace,” she smirked as Mikomi flinched at the mention of the necklace and finished, “And that girl hiding behind you.”[Run-on sentence? I think so. And her smirk isn't saying the line, Teki is. So either end the dialogue with a period and start a new sentence with She smirked, or put a she said, smirking as blah blah blah. Yeah.]

--I have to wonder, is Teki going to be the main antagonist? I quite like her.

--Oh lala, she puts on the Necklace :] I have to say, while she still seems a little too... er... perfect to be a good protagonist, I like her a lot. I don't know, it's just her strength, PLUS her determination, PLUS her brains, she seems too... great. She has a fiery temper, but that's the regular cover-up that authors give their Mary-Sues. So, yeah. She's less Mary-Sueish, but it still needs some work.

--“You can have the necklace…over my dead body!”

Teki smirked. “Well then, half-breed…that can be arranged!”[Okay. Sorry. But corniest line ever.]

--Who's the boy? I like him. I dunno why.

--Being possessed by THE Kuniho, huh? No clue what that means yet.

--Kyubi. Reminds me of Naruto's Kyuubi.

Um. That's it. Bye?

Nice story; it really got me hooked! Just be careful about the names you use: Kamino keeps making me think of El Caminos, which has a totally different vibe than the Asian vibe you're going for... >.>

Yay ^^ Mikomi's slightly less Mary-Sue-ish. But it can still happen. So just... be careful. Okay?

Anyway. I had a feeling that things would work (sort of) like this. I loved the chapter, though. Makes the second chapter seem SO much more relevent. And yeah.

So... um... well, since I'm in kind of a hurry right now, I'm going to have to keep this one much, MUCH shorter than my last review. So, uh, BYE!

Huh... well, I dunno what happened, but I don't think I ever got the alert for this chapter. *Blink* Ah well. I'm here now. And, while this seemed totally unrelated, I'm sure that it had SOMEthing to do with the first chapter. Somehow.

So... um... yeah. I was kind of confused at how high-tech everything was in this chapter. Like, I read about the cat alarm clock and said, "WTF?" and then she STILL had to bow and arrows... and said, "WTF?" x 2. And yeah.

I'm still a little confused, but I think that's because there's so many characters. Not a bad thing - just me. (grin) Now we're getting everything together, and it's definitely beginning to make more sense. I knew you'd do it!

My Inuyasha senses are tingling! With the jewel and the half-breed-ness... Anyway surprisingly I did like it a lot. So I'll be looking up into it, so update soon.

mkay wtf is going on here? no offense but what does this have to do with the first chapter? different characters, different PLANET what is up with that? I am SERIOUSLY CONFUSED! it's like a completely different story!
IncompetantDreamer 2007-02-01 . chapter 2
Okay...I'm way confused now. They seem totally unrelated! (grin) But I'll be waiting to see how you make it work. Although I think I have an idea...

Dude... coolness! And, I'll agree with the others, it is sort of like InuYasha (GOD, you must be annoyed of hearing this!), but it could still branch out and be something COMPLETELY different XD You never know. I just hope that Mikomi doesn't become a total Mary-Sue, although I'll still read it, since I keep up ith InuYasha, and, well, just look at THEIR leading female -.-

Anyway. I liked it. Although I think that Mikomi trusted Jueru a little too quickly, that's just what seems to happen in every anime/manga/whatever. So I'll let it slide. I think Mikomi could become a pretty cool character, and if you're careful and smart about it, you can stop her from being a Mary-Sue in time. (Again, though, I'll still keep up with it XD) Just please, PLEASE don't make her a 'natural' with the bow. Give her SOME difficulties with it, I'm BEGGING you! It just annoys me so much when characters are naturally good at something on their first try.

Hum... I think that's enough for now. I just have one question for you, though: What does Hoshi no Tama translate to? It seems like you have a translation for every other Japanese word/phrase, and that was the one thing I couldn't figure out ^^; So... yeah. Thanks for writing, and I can't wait for your next update!
IncompetantDreamer 2007-01-15 . chapter 1
Hey, I liked it! It does seem a little like Inuyasha so far, but that's forgivable. (grin) The bow and arrows seemed a bit extravagent, so I'll see if you can think up something for that! HAHAHAHA! (I'm evil, I know...)

Anyway, it was enjoyable - really! I love how you actually use paragraph breaks, punctuation, and grammer! (squeals with delight) Did I just squeal...?

I agree with the other review person. My Inu-Yasha senses are definately tingling. This has great potential,very few to no mistakes, well written, please up date soon,curiosity is already killing me! XD

Oh, I'm sensing undertones of Inuyasha! My Inuyasha senses are tingling! With the jewel and the half-breed-ness, it does have that vibe to it. Mikomi is like Inuyasha and Kagome rolled into one.

In all honesty, though, this story was really well-written, I didn't see any mistakes in it at all (then again, I'm kinda dyslexic, so even if there were mistakes, I doubt I would have caught them.) In any case, I'll be giving this story the benefit of the doubt, and keep an eye on it. I will be eagerly awaiting Chapter Two!
