anino08 2008-05-11 ch 28, anon.	abuseElow... your story is quiet interstin, i'm lookin forward of your next update! JAH NE?!
Teh Twinnesses Presents 2008-04-07 ch 22,	abuse"It was time to reassert his masculinity." Oh, Saito, you're precious.
Miranda Crystal-Bearer 2008-03-14 ch 28,	abuseWah! So beautful! I read this story many years back, and only the first two or three chapters. Recently re-inspired by the Shinsengumi, I recalled that RuroKen fanfiction was a good source of history and ideas. I went looking for those old fics--recalling one with Tokio wielding a bow. Over three days I have read all twenty-seven chapters. And wow. Just wow. The intracacy, the depth, the politics, the artistry, the history, the beauty! Wow. You have woven an amazing story, rich with detail and realism. The characters are brilliant, the dialogue enchanting, the action breathtaking. I am amazed and stunned and already wanting to re-read it. The detail is what really blows me away--you have written with such care and grace that the story does not bog down, even with the sheer amount of historical and fictional detail. Wow. I was never fond of Saitou in the RuroKen series, but you have made me love him. And Tokio--she was only ever briefly mentioned in the series, and that was a sad injustice to her. Beautiful. Amazing. Heart-rending. Romantic. Funny. An epic to be remembered.
karla 2008-02-06 ch 28, anon.	abuseHello, such a long time...I just got internet at home and i was so excited to read your story and I just realize i had read this chapter before and i know you are busy and have a life but is been so long i was afraid you were finish and now i am worry you won't finish the story...Well I hope you do and I will wait as long as it takes but please continue it...I am certain you will deliever...Well I have to go...My best regards, Thanks, V/R, Karla
anreg 2008-01-13 ch 28,	abuseI just read this again for probably the fourth time in the last year and a half. Thank you so much for sharing this masterpiece with us! Even if you decide not to continue this epic, it is wonderful to have Chapter 28 which lets the reader know that Saitou learns that she did send him a message before she left. It leaves things on a very hopeful note, as far as their relationship is concerned. I can't thank you enough for writing this!
shadoewhunter 2007-12-13 ch 28,	abuseplease update...please. i hate you for writing such a great story...because it's not continuing. god...your writing is beautiful. and i love the story, the plot, the super in-characterness. PLEASE PLEASE update. i highly reccomend this letter to ANYONE.
Seamarmot 2007-11-24 ch 28,	abusesigh It's such a pretty story. I love how you portray the characters and how you weave in historical facts without making it too heavy.
Miztical-Dragon 2007-08-05 ch 28,	abusewow. this story is so freaking awesome... but it's been so long since you last updated... it's making me cry. Tokio should just throw Saito against the nearest wall when she gets to see him next and have her way with him...or vise versa! This story is wonderfully fantastic! These two characters are one of my favs in the RK world... especially since Tokio is such a mystery and Haijime es be so smexy. well Please keep up the great work! I look forward to the next time you update. ^_^ -Krystal-

vtori77777 2007-05-07 ch 8,	abuseAwesome story! : )
Hajime Tokio 2007-04-24 ch 28,	abuseI dearly hope you do not think this rude of me but I have been watching your story grow from at least chapter five and have found it to be the most amazing piece of Literary work I have ever layed eyes upon. I'm not one here to hassel you but mearly question as to why you have stopped? If I am not needed to know then so be it and I will not think anything different of you for you are an amazing writer and I would never want a writer to take affence to my comments. You have used the most historic tales and have brought them back to life and only until a year ago, you stopped. I am always amazed and stunned by the perfection of this work and wish for it to never stop but you have your own life and worries. If anything I would prefer the writer to be happy and the story, continued or not, to live on in the hearts of readers such as myself. Thank you so much for you amazing work, ~Tokio~
the holy see 2007-04-24 ch 28,	abuseTwo to three days, I read this story, trying as best as I could not to stop or halt my reading. If I had to leave home, I would print a good three chapters out and read while I wasn't at home only to continue when I returned. I am begging you, from the deepest pit of my heart, to update and continue the story. This is quite possibly the BEST Saitou and Tokio story I have EVER read. EVER! Again, please update. As for now, I'm going to have to make do with reading this from chapter one till twenty eight until you do update. Also, this will be going on every possible list available. I realize this is a bit repeatitive, but I care not, UPDATE PLEASE! Don't make me beg more. (:
Blazewing 2007-03-26 ch 28,	abuseI absolutely love it! Certainly a different take on everyone's favorite Miburo & his O so mysterious wife, Tokio. As she's mentioned so little in the anime, not many authors are willing to tackle Tokio as a major part in their stories. You've done it so well, that I'm afraid you've spoiled me. ^_^ I also enjoy all the interaction between the characters, especially Saitou's & Okita's bickering. There was many a time when I couldn't stop laughing! I love how you've woven historical fact with RK fiction - it makes this story so much more unique. Not to mention believable, which is a hallmark of all good stories. It's also nice to know what really happened, historically, so as to give a good background and better appreciation for the setting of RK. I know that I, at least, appreciate all your hard work and research. Not only for the value of the knowledge itself, but also for the depth that it gives to your story. As for constructive critisism, I really can't think of anything beyond the rare typo (keep in mind, by your own notes I'm reading this after you've already done a lot of revisions). It flows very well, and the characters and their actions are believable. If you wouldn't mind, though, could you perhaps let your readers know where the various regions of Japan (Choushou, Aizu, etc.) are (or were)in relation to each other? Or point us in the direction of where we can look for ourselves? I know where Kyoto and Tokyo (Edo) are, but I'm not really familiar with any of the specific regions that are so important to the story. I eagarly await the next update, but please, don't let me rush you! I'd rather wait a year for a good chapter than a day for a bad one. And don't worry so much about how long it's taking - those of us readers who are also writers (sometimes, in my case ;-) understand the havoc Real Life can create!
KARASU25 2007-03-17 ch 28,	abuseThere are no words to explain this story. Its just so brutally awesome. Everything...breathless If there was anything I'd like to see it would be more of Souji.^^; he's my favorite character^^; actually the battle between kenshin and Saito was so-so. It could have been better, more fighing maybe, but the taunts were good ones. Please continue as soon as you can! You can't leave this story here!
