RockBane 2008-07-22 ch 18,	abuseSo, Naruto's coming to this reunion, right?
Sexy Neko Hibiki 2008-07-20 ch 18,	abuseGood! Wonderful! More!
Rose1948 2008-07-03 ch 18,	abuse::snickergigglefits:: Awesome!
DeltaRyujin 2008-07-01 ch 18,	abuseVery nice plot. You love to torture Ranma don't you? Can you keep count of how many children has Ranma had? Then again in 20 years can happen anything. Hope you can update soon.
Lerris 2008-06-29 ch 14,	abuseOverall this story is quite good, but I did note a few things. First of all you begin with their return and while that is okay, I think you might want to consider a small rewrite of that part which leaves off most of the pesky details, like twenty thousand years, powerful warships, etc. The reasons for this is too fold. First, it leaves things that they have to keep reading to find out, and more importantly it avoids perhaps leading to a false impression. For instance my first impression when I saw they were really gone twenty thousand years when only three days have gone by, was that this would be what amount to an excuse to instantly change Ranma into a perfect overpowered person who then goes on to beat down all his former enemies with his little toe. Now perhaps that is a little cynical, but, well, that kind of thing is not unheard of. If, on the other hand, you left most of those details off, you reader would have to be kept guessing, and might in fact not realize it until the nebula scene. The second issue I see is you have just too many little crossovers, and too many things that are convenient for little apparent purpose. This story would have worked quite well with just the Tenchi and Sailor Moon crossovers without adding the little ones and things like creating the Amazons, the slayers world, etc, etc. In fact, given that many of your readers know that your incorporating other works of fiction makes it far more difficult to continue suspending disbelief. As a minor point you have some thing about magical solar powered carbon dioxide converters. Since considerable energy was released to produce CO2 is seems reasonable that it would also take considerable energy to split the atoms back up. I'm guessing that the biggest key to greenhouse gas reduction is a far more efficient battery. Finally, I'm not sure I see what story value you have by the number of people Ranma gives a child to. The Washu Nabiki Ranma thing worked, but then it kinda went off the deep end. (It makes it harder to continue suspending disbelief..) On a similar vein, the period of time elapsed could possibly also be made smaller.. Again, overall this is quite good, and while I haven't looked at the reviews I thought perhaps a slightly more critical one might have some value.
ranma chaos 2008-06-27 ch 18, anon.	abusei can't wait for the next segment of this story!! too good!! plz continue and never run out of ideas!!
Cyberbeta 2008-06-25 ch 18,	abuseAw, I was hoping for more Yu-gi-oh, but Solomon getting chased around by his daughter with a sharp pointy object is funny and a nice holdover. I like your explanation on how Princess Minaho was forced off of Edo. She was unable to give a final message because of the Fox. Speaking of the Tailed Beasts, I am curious as to ow they came about on Edo, but I digress. Pain will most likely be getting whooped by Enma for wanting to kill his nephew (Not to mention for trying to gain powers he should not have). I see you added at least 2 movies (Journey to the land of Snow and the Shippuden one). Minaho's reaction to her son being so well known was slightly comical as well. That and the Jade queen WANTING a fight was pretty funny. Swithing over to Avalon, Luna is going to hurt Lina so badly isn't she? I wonder if Luna or Lina is eligible to become the Senshi of Pluto, or a senshi at all. Going back to Earth, The events at the Hinata-sou just get funnier and funnier, and Rushina being as airheaded as her maga counterpart helps. Finally , Ranma's desperation move on Hild seems to have backfired a little. Now instead of worrying about her comming to Furinkan High, he has to worry about his Kage Bunshin lasting a day there with all it's insanity. Nice job. Who all from Konoha, will be attending besides Tsunade and Naruto? How will the council and village act when an Uchiha other than Sasuke or Itachi is walking around (madara don't count)? How will Naruto react when he learns not only he has family, but how big it is and that he is Royalty as well? How much trouble will Hinata get in when Nabiki and Ranma learn what their errant granddaughter has done? What will Lina and her crew do when she learns she is not only a niece to Xellos, but she also beat the snot out of her Aunt? How much were the Norns and Mara able to get out of Hild, or did the brawl pick up where it left off after the Bunshin dispelled? Oh you leave so many major questions that will be fun to see answered. I look forward to the next chapter whenever it arrives ~Cyberbeta, Logging out
Cyde 2008-06-25 ch 18,	abuseI hate to agree with reviewer DoWnEr, but I have to be honest with you. This story went off on too many tangents for my personal taste. And that's what it boils down to, isn't it? The individual reader's personal taste. As such, my review isn't so much a criticism as an opinion this time around, and as such, should be taken with a rather large grain of salt. While sideplots and build-up are good for a story, they shouldn't leave the reader asking, "Ok, now what does THIS have to do with anything? Are we going to get back to the PLOT any time soon?" When you introduce so many OCs that the reader has to start making a list to keep up with them... yeah. That's not good. When the reader gets so completely hammered into submission by subplot and OC development that they forget what the original plot was? You get my point. The story reads almost like it has attention deficit disorder, really. :-) All that said, I can't honestly FAULT you for it, as there are readers out there who enjoy this type of story (your body of reviews bears this fact nicely). I am, unfortunately, not one of them. It is the opinion of this humble reviewer that you had a good hand and overplayed it, kind of causing the story to spiral out of control and sink under its own weight. This story gave me a headache and I tuned out.
Asgeras 2008-06-24 ch 18,	abuseDang. You updated so many fics that I was hoping for an update to Shinobi One Half. Or Papa's Back. Or The Reborn. Or...well you get the drift. At least you posted a new No Need for Destiny chapter. I guess that means I'm happy. :P Although I was kind of hoping to see what would happen if Skuld DID bot Ranma on the head with her debugging hammer. There are just so many dang possibilities...the most likely one being the hammer exploding. It will be interesting to see how Washu takes to Ranma having so many children, with so many different women to boot. He's going to have to practically rent out a convention center for the reunion, if not a smaller city. heh. Well, thanks for the update. It was quite enjoyable and I look forward to the next. ^^

DoWnEr 2008-06-23 ch 18, anon.	abuseDon't get me wrong, i love this story but the build up... arrgghh... way to much build up in to many storylines. I really hate it when great stories end.. makes me feel all melancholy and nostalgic but i just wish some parts of this story would hurry up and get to the conflicts already. I don't want the story to end any time soon but it would be nice if some areas of the story would just hurry up stop the build up. Everythings been building up for soo long that the wait is getting unbearable. Loved it when the sailor moon past arc finally ended. Sad as hell but was glad to see an end (well partial end) to a part of the story. Hope you keep writing.. not enough Ranma writers around now a days.. not like in the late 90's.
Sean Malloy-1 2008-06-22 ch 18,	abuseVery good work on the story, I'm hoping to read more soon.
Wonderbee31 2008-06-22 ch 18,	abuseSweet! Hild always rocks, and poor little K1 feeling a teensy bit jealous, and he's still dancing around Belldandy(man, will look forward to the explosion all that pent up tension will bring), as well as looking forward to Hinata getting spanked by Papa and Mama for what she did.
Firehedgehog 2008-06-22 ch 18,	abuseawesome update
Hiryo 2008-06-22 ch 18,	abuseYeah! Another up soo soon ^^ I love that! Thanks again for writing so much and hope for more in the near future. ;)
