Wow... very...

::pulls out dictionary of overused slang:: cool!

And unique and very descriptive. Creative as well, taks a lot of imagination to write something so... kewl. ::laugh:: ... kewl (coo-el) verb. the common misspelling of 'cool'. synonyms: cool, antonyms: ..

sorry, got carried a way there, hope I didn't bore you ^_^

Hmmm...I think I still enjoyed version one better, but there's nothing wrong with version two. Like I said, things are so descrpitive and real, I enjoyed it a lot.

Oooh, I enjoyed version one. So real and so descrpitive. So, onto version two!

Wow, I think this was very deep. It was so sad, but true. I liked the way he matured, the way he talked to hsi friend the night before the last battle. It was so sad that he died without being able to paint something that wasn't blood and death.
I really like the way you described it.

Poor Satoru!!!

thnx for all your reviews!!

Hey, thanks for reviewing my story. This is really good, you can really understand what's going through Satoru's head. Keep it up and never stop writing.

ei, im someone whose works you reviewed on...i decided to see your works and they're good! write more!! this one, it's good even without a sequel (kinda a big shift from the other lighthearted story you made) but if you decide to write a continuation, id like to see how it'd turn out :P

Ooh, shibbyness! I loved the comparison between his paintbrush and the sword; painting with the blood of his enemies...very imaginative ^ _ ^
