nice nice! i like this a lot. i hope you update it soon. :)

why hasn;t this story been finished? You've just ruined my day

kya!

This so so suspenseful! Please don't give up on this story! It's really good!

YOSHA! YAY FOR UPDATES!

ey, I love your fic, really do.

but are your ever going to finish it?
cause if you don't, I must ban this story out of my thoughts, and not wonder about how it could continue...

what I'm saying is: would you please! finish the story?
pretty please?

Apparently you haven't updated this story for a while. I hope you will continue it, since it is a good story. And I don't think Aiko is a Mary-Sue.

Haha very nice.. very nice. I keep wanting to write a really nice long review but it just isn't the time yet. I believe your fic has a few more chapters to go before engaging in the major, central plot so I cannot say anything that can pass as decent constructive critism yet. But so far I CAN say that the story's going very well. I'm still waiting for the ZoSan interaction but I CAN actually wait. I'm usually kinda impatient about these kinda things but you write very pleasantly and I actually find the build-up enjoyable. So don't rush it. We can stick with the Gen while it lasts. ^__^

Aiko isn't turning out to be a Mary-Sue, rest assured. I was worried she would too but you don't linger too much on her physical characteristics or deep dark past or whatever. Now as long as you don't pair her up with anyone, it'll be fine. XD

Yay~! Third Chapter^^
"Zoro ducked under a low branch and swore as a vine smacked him in the face. He brushed the offending bit of vegetation away, then slapped at some insect buzzing near his ear irritably, getting more and more annoyed by the minute with this stupid forest, this stupid island, this stupid…"
HAHA, I was laughing at this. Poor Zoro...but it's so IC, Zoro, who's easily annoyed.XD Honestly, I enjoyed reading this story with Zoro's point of view. And seeing as there's little out there(most stuff I read have Sanji's POV), I'm so glad you've written this.^_^ I think I'll love Zoro more after this.

And I'm just as anxious to read the next chapter as they're to find out where their crew mates went. I'm not putting any pressure on you though.^^*sits back and waits patiently for the next*

Welcome back! A great chapter! I have a pretty good idea of WHAT'S in the Jungle and WHO attacked Chopper and Robin! I wonder if it killed them or did what his species does best to them? Oh the suspence! Update again soon! Later!

I don't like that girl AT ALL. Something tells me that she brought them there so they could kill this thing, but it's hard to tell. Not that she would be giving them much of a choice. Now I'm really worried for Chopper and Robin! And now everyone else is walking right into danger. T__T I can't wait for more!

Geuna~

Nicely done. Zoro's characterization, the little bit snippet of conversation between Zoro and Sanji (was that funny or WHAT), the ominous feeling we as readers get too about the island and the OC, and that damn cliff-hanging one-liner at the end of the chapter. You got it all spot on. I plan on waiting for a little more before I write a better review, but so far I can say the story's going good. I can practically smell the potential. Keep going.

It's really nice to see the second chapter *squeals happily*
I especially love your comparisons...like:"And ever since he laid eyes on Aiko, his internal danger alarm had been buzzing like crazy, grating at the back of his mind like two pieces of broken bones that hadn’t been splinted properly."
And your descriptions on emotions...they're awesome, I feel that I'm in the world with them.XDD The last part where Zoro and Sanji exchange glances that only they understand, is pure gold. I love the nakamaship here. *drools* And I have to, I honestly have to quote this: "Then he nodded solemnly, one corner of his lips quirked in a faint smile. Zoro knew that look well.

Don’t worry, we can protect everyone, that look said, and you watch out for yourself too, idiot marimo.

Zoro found himself smirking back his own response, suddenly feeling a lot calmer. This familiar little exchange was strangely comforting."

Ack, I love this so much. (And it's the first time I've been addressed in the beginning! :P)

Geez...even I'm getting that sense of foreboding...and that was _before_ i read the last line. Your writing is as awesome as ever and I can't wait for the next chapter!

Oh oh! Oh oh oh! I really really hope to see more of this! I like the situation you've set up, forboding without feeling overdone, and the crew dynamic is good too. It feels very natural. ^_^ Zoro's concerned but not letting it bother him overly much, sticking by his captain's decision. I also really like the way Sanji and Zoro related at the end of the second chapter, they fought and mocked each other, but they have that deeper understanding that comes from being two of the main fighters on a very dangerous quest.

I really like the trust you had them show: "Don’t worry, we can protect everyone, that look said, and you watch out for yourself too, idiot marimo." I love that part of Sanji and Zoro's relationship, I'm really curious about what you're going to go with this. More more!

Welcome back! I have a good idea why young Akio is acting so odd when they arrived at Baydrop island. And IF I'm right it's been watching Luffy and his friends since they arrived! I hope their skills are enough to beat it! *Chuckles* UPdate again soon won't you? Later!
