I have no clue why this story isn't reviewed more. It is an incredible story with an original plot line and IC characters. It also happens to be one of the few developed stories [not one shots] that deal with a team other than Deimon.

Your grammar has little to no mistakes, and the language you use makes me able to instantly visualize what is going on.

You are an amazing writer who deserves a lot more reviews/feedback/appreciation than you get.

Anyways, this chapter has me desperately waiting for the next update. Cliffhangers are cruel.

I am anticipating how the Americans will react when Akaba and Koutarou show their skills, and I'm sure you will do a wonderful job writing it.

I really enjoy this story. Keep up the good work! :)

OMIGAWD IT'S MUKURO.

I'm really glad I can keep a straight face, because otherwise I would be in big trouble for reading fanfic instead of working...

The pineapple plantation didn't really faze me, but I started thinking about Mukuro, and then look! He appears! I seriously love the Reborn reference in here <3

Seeing Hiruma was a bit shocking, but it kinda makes sense. He probably blackmailed some poor tycoon into 'giving' him a pineapple farm...

Akaba didn't bring food? That's not smart... -coughs-

Trust Akaba, though, to remain [relatively] calm and keep everyone from panicking.

Koutarou being related to Akaba was a really big shocker though :P

Ah, poor Julie :[

This Jessica sounds bad already. I'm guessing she will try to start a fight between Koutarou, Julie and Akaba?

Ouch. I am one of those people with serious performance anxiety, so this chapter seriously hits the mark.

On another hand, this chapter was great! All the characters were in character [wow, that sounds redundant]and the plot flowed really well.

-thumbs up-

I love this story the writing is great, the plot is well thought out, and the characterization is well planned. I really enjoy this story it is great to see the spiders getting some love. Just one little detail Elvis never performed outside of America, however I like the idea of the bracelet being a good luck charm for Koutarou. Please keep up the great work! Oh and update soon I am re-reading it again to fill the void of a new chapter.

I really love your characterization of the trio! I haven't seen the anime so I only know of manga Juri, which isn't much considering she was around for like ten chapters.

The transitions in plot are very smooth - from failing an exam to getting stranded on an island...lol, lots of laughs there. You've also showed me how scary Hiruma can be when he's not on your side ^^;

Hope you haven't lost interest in this story,
Lily

Wow, I really love this story. The characterisation is great and its rare to find such a good non-Deimon fanfic. I can't wait for Akaba and Koutarou to play american football again!

Holy **! I love this!! To be honest I was sceptic at first, but you've got me hook line and sinker! The twist with Akaba and Koutarou being half-brothers explains a lot actually. Hehe I can actually see Hiruma owning a pineapple plantation now :) And of course in the end there is American football ^^ Update soon?

Whoa! You managed to put in some football! You're genius Angle-san!

Being the idiot who doesn't know anything about the United States I am, I had thought that Hiruma actually dropped them off at Mexico. So for a moment, I understood how Koutarou felt, at the least.

I'm also sensing a love triangle and Akaba/Julie? Well, I'm mainly a Koutarou/Julie and Akaba/Koutarou fan, but there's nothing wrong with going the other way~! *stomped*

I think you're a very good writer; from what I've seen, you don't overuse dialogues or descriptions and keep them in balance. Also, you seem to have a very good grip on your plot (unlike some people such as me who just makes everything up as they go), and everything's developing fine. So, keep it up~

That's just awesome! Kick it max!

Hiruma amuses me.

Nyaksu! Evil scheme!
Sounds like Hiruma's things. IhWow! Hiruma was so evil in this chap!

And i felt the potential of love triangle!

I smell troubles! Kya!

I bet Hiruma bugged their room and is listening in while cackling.

lol at the katekyo hitman reborn reference (king mukuro pineapples!) XDXD

could that be... hiruma..? o_o

i applaud you for continuing beyond a common oneshot. i do adore koutarouxjulie. *_*
