And Howeel is literally reenacting the phrase, "head in the sky." That is a saying, right?

Well, as the pace is picking up and it is much LESS rushed than the previous two chapters, the only thing to clear up now are, once again, some stray awkward wording and the occasional reversion to present tense.

A few more remarks: Poor Connor. I feel sorry for Masayoshi, trapped in his own seal (which acted sort of like a pet dog if you know what I mean and you probably don't so I won't elaborate). Oh oblivious Howell, whatever shall we do with you? And... Poor Connor!

This is genius, Masa. Keep it up and continue to make me laugh. That's all I'm asking!

Dang, you updated fast!

Connor got curb stomped, only without the curb. Then he got shot in the face with a magical bullet. He's down for the count. As always, I love Howell. In a totally awesome, manly, not yaoi way, of course. I've always liked him and his absent-mindedness. Too bad I've never used him, myself. Oh well...You're doing a good job with him, and it makes the story all the more enjoyable. Not to mention how much easier Masayoshi is to follow as a plain old magical teacher! Ha, plain old indeed...

Rock on, brother.

And the second installment is off to a great start.

I rather liked Makie's horrible pronunciation of Ivan's name. Just curious, would the correct romanization of Ivan's name be 'I-ba(va)-ra-n Cha-n-su?" I'm working on my Japanese.

Unfortunately, I did catch a few more mistakes this chapter. In the third block of words, you used the pronoun he/his/him and the word 'the' three times in succession to start the sentences that made up the paragraph. It made for a very awkward read.

Also, you suddenly reverted to present tense when you said, in the seventh paragraph: "...is she this desperate?" A simple 'was' would fix that immediately.

In the section after that, some sentences threw me off like: "Connor Gavet punched the wall, not flinching although THAT cracking sound made Masayoshi and Howell wince." The word, 'that' might have been better off replaced with the word 'the.' But maybe I'm going into too much detail. This is the only way to find stuff to talk about when I'm dying from laughter at the trio's encounter with Sayo. "GHOST! GHOST!" But uh... I thought only Connor could touch Sayo.

Finally, I really recommend looking back through the chapters for small mistakes. Some people say to read the whole thing aloud but I've found that it never works for me...

In retrospect, Ivan sounds vaguely like a Genie... Man, this story is going by fast. It's still a little rushed though. Also, poor trio. Howell and Connor have it rough, not even noticing their prey when it passed by. Wait... there's two of him? More precisely... three of him! Very reminiscent of Setsuna's... uh, paper dolls. The term eludes me, but I assume it is the same technique, yes?

Well, this is getting very interesting and I'd like to spend all night predicting what will happen next, but my mind REALLY is blank and I need to go to sleep lest I be late for my third day of class... like I was on the second day of class... so, in fear of oversleeping... again... and using too many ellipsis... again... I'll see you next chapter.

A promising start to the next Masayoshi story. I'll ignored what has already been mentioned in previous reviews, but is Ku at Mahora or not? She wasn't mentioned with the group on the roof, but later let Connor in the room. I look forward to some of the other girls getting their turn in the spotlight.

Yay, a new story with a new plot and a new character. Best of luck dearest Masa, I will be watching.

Hehe, and another crazy installment of Masa's epic is on the way.

First of all, I'd like to get the technical things to the side. Several sentences were slightly awkward, some of the flow was choppy, and it overall felt rushed. That's it? Okay.

"Akira appeared a few minutes later, and the two dragged sat together and drank, 'I didn’t know this guy was perverted…'"
- "...the two dragged..." Yes, I know who you're talking about but it sounds just plain awkward... and Misora's statement is just not very natural-like. Hopefully, that was not confusing.

Also, Evan's seal spell thing was not very clear. What exactly did he do? Giant magic circle? Am I just forgetting something that happened in past epics or am I just ignorant?

Finally, it's a spider... no screams?

Well, criticism aside, I'm guessing your Ivan Chance is NOT a decent guy, being in the baths and all. It should be entertaining to see what happens, especially when the three OCs have been targeted.

And also, Takamichi Death Glasses is losing his touch... or maybe it's just the paycheck. That was a good one. Now if only they had a thumbs up icon here...

Anyways, like always, I'm looking forward to your next chapter. Keep up the good work.
