I say the ending was good, well the whole story was good, but the ending makes us, the readers, sit on the edge of our seat wonder what is to happen next, and lets are imagination run loose. You would be one of the few writers, that catch my eye more then one way. I love how you have a plot but twist it more then one way, so it makes it interesting but also very informational.
Now I could give you my opinoin, but the worst critique you can have is yourself. So don't be to hard on yourself but not to soft either.
I hope to see more updates on other things, and I'll leave little notes here and there if really need, but over all what you think needs to be fixed or worked on, is probably what does.
Over all I say the story roled pretty well, after the first one, since this is the sequal

Sigh. I apologize for reviewing (again) and cluttering your inbox but I have to say that I would love it if you posted a one-shot of Reika coming back to Kurama sometime in the future.

"At first I was hesitant at the fact that you had Shuichi age to 19 because it's pretty unusual for someone to do that on FF and I was unsure at how it would all play out, but I am happy to note that it wasn't OOC (like I thought it may have been). It was surprisingly in character compared to what I initially expected going into this story, though part of that reason I'm relieved is that you kept the other characters such as Keiko, Yusuke, Kazuma, etc. in contact with Kurama."

Sorry, just editing the "FF" back into the comment.

I've only just finished reading this story after the prequel and I'm vaguely tempted to smack you. Okay, scratch that, my hand is twitching to smack you silly. Lol How could you leave it like that??!

Part of me is disappointed, desperate, and angry and sad at the same time of how you left the story (ultimately both since they were of the same idea), but the other half is appreciative.

Not many people leave stories "unfinished" or ending on a slightly wondering note and ... It just seems artistic and sadly beautiful - bittersweet. I like that you ended it like that, though I could have standed for there to be a deeper look into Kurama and Reika's relationship; more interaction between the two, you know?

I do like that in parts you reminded the reader that Reika (is) a demon and in the same instance, made vaguely aware that the reader can relate to the demoness in more ways than one - all revolving around the same subject - the difficulty of relationships and overcoming the obstacles.

At first I was hesitant at the fact that you had Shuichi age to 19 because it's pretty unusual for someone to do that on and I was unsure at how it would all play out, but I am happy to note that it wasn't OOC (like I thought it may have been). It was surprisingly in character compared to what I initially expected going into this story, though part of that reason I'm relieved is that you kept the other characters such as Keiko, Yusuke, Kazuma, etc. in contact with Kurama.

So, though the fan girl in me is disappointed in the way things ended between Shuichi and Reika (because I could see that their relationship could have been sweet with Reika staying and them making things work), but the majority of me is content with the ways things wrapped up.

All-in-all I enjoyed this story and the prequel.

Kudos!

I know you say they aren't two different people, however, in the last arc, Kurama is forced to make a choice between Suichi and Yoko, saying one or the other pretty much has to die becuase he cannot live as both, if he was only one person, he could neither choose (there wouldn't be anyone to choose between) nor "kill off" himself

Tears actually stung my eyes when I read this last chapter. Thanks for writing such a great story. ^_^

DAMN IT! YOU HAVE BETTER WRITE A SEQUEL IF YOU ALREADY HADN'T! WRITE A RA-DAMNED SEQUEL! PLEASE! And preferably let me know that you have. And one last time, THERE HAVE BETTER BE A SEQUEL! And I'm going to be back in a few months to reread. Just felt I should warn you. Awesome job!

Ok. I could have sworn she was going to kill him right there like she had always planned. Not sure why but I did. And then I thought she was just going to make a run for it once her collar was off. I'm glad that she didn't. Awesome job!

Interesting. Awesome job!

Poor Kurama. Awesome job!

Ha! Even after all that time, what he said as Yoko still is correct. Awesome job!

I'm just waiting for one of the demons who are rooming at Genkai's to come in and ruin it. Awesome job!

Poor Kurama and Rika. Awesome job!
