Hi well first I'm not sure if you will get to or still read the reviews but in any case I just wanted to say that I love your story line. It is very interesting how you are allowing the charater's inner thoughts to show. This gives me another view that the anime really didn't...inner battles, feelings, frustrations and inhibitions all there to be analized. I could tell you are a romantic...just by looking at the way you described the different escenaries so many details that really set up the mood and gives you a clear and real picture of the surranding ambience...very nicely done. Chikaru, she is so observant and the way she takes in delightfully the small things in life specially those that not everybody appreciates has practically trained her to be more perceptive to situations around her...no wonder why she is like the voice of wisdom to many. Your portrait of her is excellent. I wish you will continue this story even if it has been in hiatus for awhile...I hope you can find the necessary motivation within yourself to continue...After all it is a great story and it is only biginning I could only imagine how it would be at the end and there are not that many great srories with canon couples and Stopani. I will be waiting for your writing muse to reapear...take care.

i like what happened between Shizuma and Nagisa... its very sweet specially the tease... i love it... hope you write more

I like your story so far. I really hope you update it again someday. ^_^

The place where you started from was perfect. It was then that all the troubles happened. Don't forget that the Etoile selections is near :x maybe nagisa could enter with shizuma? Hope you continue updating :D

Interesting... I hope you will update this story !

I've read your story several times, but this is the first time I've actually commented on it. You keep the girls in good character and I like that. Please update as soon as you can.

P.S. Check out a couple of my fics if you have the time.

I am in love with this story I hope that you update it soon

* keeps an eye on it and waits for the next part*

i love this so much..its one of the few SP fics ive read where Shizumas character is well, shizuma! :D keep going!! *waits*

this story is excellent! please write more!! please?

God, Shizuma-sama will drive Nagisa wild one day of those.
I'm not sure if i got the subtle references so... better stay quiet.
I've been always wondering what's in Chikaru's mind... she's soo m surreal? I like how you are "painting" her, even if i dont understand her quite well
Anyway, great chap!
Keep going

Love the direction that you are going with this story. I was always sorry that Shizuma did not sopeak up at her summer home. Looks like more angst for Miyuki and Tamao. And Chikaru is always cool no matter what. Great start and update!!

love this so far. i can't wait for more. some hikari/amene plese?

Liking this story so far. There is a seriously short amount of Shizuma/Nagisa fics in the fandom. *sigh* I guess this is what happens when the anime doesn't spend enough time on each character's personality. Nagisa ended up being boring...but come on! It's a canon relationship and both love each other. I don't know why there aren't more Shizuma/Nagisa fics out there. Well, I guess most writers tend to like the angst of Miyuki, Tamao and Yaya. *sigh*

I need more Shizuma/Nagisa fluff dammit.


Whoops, sorry for the rant. Anyhoo, I didn't see any references. I only watch very few anime titles, all of them shoujoai, so my knowledge is very limited. Also, thanks for the update and looking forward to your next one!

Even though I have commented on the first half of the story during your time of writing, I still want to give you a proper review.

I really love the interactions between Nagisa and Shizuma. Even if Shizuma is cruel. XD As I said before in my first review, I like your Nagisa.

My favorite part would have to be this, "Mm…how’s this going to work out, I wonder. It’s obvious that she wants my girlfriend." It surprises me at how perceptive Shizuma is when it comes to this, but how the sexual innuendos go right over her head.

As we both know, I like Miyuki and hate Tamao, whereas you are the opposite. However, I'm looking forward to Tamao's antics. I highly doubt Nagisa will ever feel the same for her, let alone leave Shizuma, but it shall be fun to read nonetheless.

I know this might just be wishful dreaming on my part, but I really hope you go somewhere with Miyuki. Since she's in the same boat as Tamao so to speak, it would be nice if you fleshed out her feelings and gave her a resolve.

I don't really have much to say about Spica's events, we both know I hardly ever do, but I like the reactions between Yaya and Tsubomi. Especially, "Tsubomi? What the hell?" Gave me a chuckle.

CHIKARU! NO FIC IS COMPLETE WITHOUT HER! Ahem... Anyway, your Chikaru is portrayed beautifully. She seems to have the mindset of 'one person can change the world' and tries to bring joy and a smile to everyone she encounters. An admirable trait.

One last thing, I KNOW THE THREE REFERENCES! HAHAHAHAHA! But only after I bugged you about them because I'm too damn slow to get them. Heh (^_^;)

I'll be faithfully reminding and nagging until the next chapter is out. -nods-

He! You've got an excellent writing in here!
Please, dont tell you wont update this fic, not when this seems to be a good one!
Keep going!
