I can't believe the story has ended.

I am filled with so many emotions right now that I don't know what to say about this story.

I can only summarize what I think and feel in a few words.

Beautiful.

Amazingly beautiful.

Everything about it.

You are truly outstanding, Mikan-san. A writer like you is one in a million. Like I've said before, I worship you like Watsuki-sensei. I am very happy to have found this story and you and you're incredible talent. Really happy.

Seisouhen.

It's never been easy for me to talk about it.

I have been greatly devastated of the way it has ended. The shock and pain in my heart was too much.

I love Kenshin so much.

Call me crazy for acting this way about a fictional character, but that's how I feel.

He is not just any fictional character though. He's like family to me. He will always have a very special place in my heart.

He's my hero and inspiration.

After all he's been through, I just want him to have the happiness he deserved. Just like everyone in a family will want for each one in a family.

But I've been selfish and immature and failed to open my eyes and understand the depth of Kenshin's character. I am awed of your understanding of Kenshin's character and the reality of what Seisouhen had brought down upon us. It brought tears to my eyes.

While I will forever cling to the manga ending, we have to be open and accept all the possibilities that the ending could bring in the future. It's not easy and it hurts so much for me to think about it. But I guess this is one of the things that makes life beautiful isn't it? All the different ways we could look at the many sides of life. And that's exactly what Seisouhen or the people behind it was thinking about.

The heavy burden in my heart has been lifted.

For this beautiful story and your insight, once again, Mikan-san, THANK YOU.

Oh. My. God.

This chapter did it. Finally.

I'm crying. You. have. made. me. cry! My goodness.

This is a very powerful chapter, that it is. All those pent-up emotions I've been holding back from the last 4 chapters just flew out of the window in this one. I planned to review this whole story in one go, that is, at the end. But I can't help myself in this one. I just have to let it out.

Words are not enough to describe what I feel right now. So much emotions. The heartache is just too much for me to bear. I can feel it in my heart.

From Ryu and Kaoru's scene in the dojo, Kenshin's anguish, Megumi's berating, Kaoru's realization, and lastly, the departure.

So beautifully written. So perfect. All of it.

Mikan-san, your talent for writing is undeniably great. I'm saying that from the bottom of my heart. If I could see you right now, I might've kneeled in front of you, worshipping you like a God, the same thing I would've done in front of Nobuhiro Watsuki-sama. Seriously.

*takes a deep breath*

Okay.

Now, excuse me while I gather my shattered heart and compose myself as I continue reading this beautiful story.

..And I think I'll have tissues ready. Just in case.

*gasp* O_O oh no...

(So beautifully written btw. Seriously, you're awesome. The whole story, I just get lost in it...:D)

Gosh it rly sucks to watch the effed up relationship btwn kenshin & sano.. :/
