abusethis was wonderful, and I can't tell you how happy I was to read a fanfic where Akito and Yurika are together and happy. I just watched Prince of Darkness last night, and after that depressing movie I *really* needed to read something that gave them a happy ending. Plus, it was nice to see a more human side of Ruri. Not only was your story well-written, it was uplifting--thanks!!

abuseWell, a nice, original piece: a Ruri-centric story I actually LIKE. That's an accomplishment x3, considering I'm usually apathetic-at-best to almost anything Ruri. The Akito "Cameo" was excellent: there really are too-few Nadesico Fics set after the Series that actually deal with akito & Yurika. Superb characterisation is a particular standout.

You're not the only one that hopes you write more Nadesico Fics in the future, either. You've actually inspired me to start writing my own again...since I can assume you've seen the whole Series, feel more than free to check out mine.

*cough* Make your next work about the "Buttercup" Trio *cough*

abuseCoolies. This was good. It's good to see Ruri act her age. Write another one. Keep up the good work i really enjoyed this.

abuseThis is your first Nadesico fanfic? You have the grasp of a veteran. I hope it's not your last!

I had some gripes about how you sort of narrowed down Yurika, though. Having her backstory being revealed in one single unbroken paragraph? I'm sure Ruri would have plenty of reactions, thoughts, dialogue, etc. going on in there. You had a wonderful thing going with her thoughts, internal asides, and all that wonderful jazz when she was solo and in the more humorous parts of the fanfic. I think they could work better scattered in a little more. You have a good system of omniscient third-person portrayal going on. Make use of it!

There were also some grammar and punctuation errors that slipped through. No offense to Janice, but I find it's very effective to have no less than two beta readers scrutinizing your fic. Keep on top of their changes and send out a new version for every group of changes you make. Send it through the process as long as it takes.

However, these errors don't at all detract from the overall quality of the fic. Parts had me laughing out loud, and your views of the characters express a great knowledge and love for them. I look forward to delving into some of your other works; this is as good as your Azumanga fic, which I have yet to read the next chapter for, but I know will be great.

Superlative work! This is up there as one of the better Nadesico fanfics.
