Lol regarding the Author's Note. :)

Anywho, as usual, loved the chapter! The suspence is killing me! There's something big comming up, i can feel it! :)

Keep up the good work! :)

hehehehehe i think its kinda cute how you write Juu-kun not understanding all the fancy clan things. And MAN! such nosy nosy people..and i think the Shiba-ke are hilarious! especially Hakubei in the beginning XD

poor Juu-kun,he is gonna be hunted. And dang..Keitarou is a really meanie headed butt...and yet somehow i like his character..its really well thought out. :) and im a bit behind for chapters now lol.

Interesting chapter. Its funny to see Juu's reaction to the oppulance of a clan 'home'.

Lol, weddings, always seem to be the best time for people to make alliances and get information just as much as to make with the friendlies and enjoy the wedding.

I loved what you did with Keitarou at the end, that was masterful writing. I don't think Keitarou lied at all then, just the spin of the words gave the story a completely different take. Just brilliant. Whats that saying 'the truth you are told, is not always the truth you hear.' something like that.

Looking forward to the next chapter.

no! it's a shame eiraki is so powerless against all the conspirators. if only keitarou could be reformed somehow...but that's just my wishful thinking. once again, your writing tricked me into thinking it was the real thing. :D psh...who needs real bleach?

Whoaw! This Keitarou guy is really making my brain work overtime! He truly is the criminal-master-mind! Perfect choice in bad-guy personality!

You know, at first i thought Shikiki was an ansestor of yachiru, but now she kinda sounds like orihime. What/who the heck is she? It's driving me crazy trying to visualize her with so little descriptive words; as far as her character's appearance.

I really dont like to think of them in this light, but do you see Shunsui and Juushirou as being gay together? Alot of people do because they're so close and Shunsui's "pink" personality doesn't really help their case any, but when reading this story...i just wanna know from the author what you think; or what you mean for this story to suggest about their friendship.

By the way, I dont have spell check. Sorry for any mispellings above.

Loved the chapter, and cant wait for more! I stalk your story like my mom stalks her soup operas! Lol! :)

Well, somehow, i get to feeling like Keitarou just screwed himself over. Somone will suspect something, he'll have to take out his puppet metal, Eiraki will escape and Kei will be stuffed.

Juu and Mitsuki better dance.

And Shun and.. I'm not sure who he should dance with.

A great look into Keitarou and his Bankais powers. Pulls ALL the strings

Heh nice chapter. Reading between the lines I think I can see your dislike of Eiraki, poor girl is in for a rough trot it seems. A nice bit of scheming there by Keitarou, and a little insight into the abilities of his Bankai huh.. Quite litterally a puppet master maybe.

Looking forward to the next chapter. The wedding I'm guessing?

Yay! Updates!

First of all, sorry for not reviewing the last chapter. I've been busy and I didn't have the time, but I'll just tell you here. It was all just too intense, with Misashi imprisoned, Kibana making his appearance (does his name mean what I'm thinking? 'Devil Flower', perhaps? My knowledge of Japanese kanji is tiny)... gosh, it's getting good. Had to love the bit between Juushirou and Shunsui xD And then Keitarou! Oh my! xD

Now, on to this one... Aw, poor Shikiki, thinking Keitarou will die. He could've been more direct and say that he's as stubborn as a cockroach! xD Uh-oh, what is he planning to do with Juu? God, he's evil! xD

Another priceless moment! Oh, but mind you, a same fragment was repeated twice: was that an error or something? Anyway, it was still cool, and too bad they still can't completely figure out who killed Shouichi. Ah... if we could just put a sign in front of them... xD It's getting interesting, wonder what'll happen with them now?

O...kay, what is Keitarou doing, telling Eiraki his secret? Meh, I should've seen it coming, just to gain her trust. I was surprised at first; I mean, why would he betray Seimaru after all they've been through? Well, all for an ulterior motive, eh? It always is. Hm... I have a bad feeling about this, indeed.

Intense chapter (have I said that before? xD) and kudos to you xDD

-Cheers!^^

Ah thanksgiving break! How it distracts me from the computer! Anyway though. Happy belated thanksgiving! though i dont know if you live in an area with it. Either way, im glad i got back on to read this! it's a wonderful chapter! and more plot! you my dear have one heck of a plot here! All these twists are developing a twist of their own!

As always, love this story and can't wait for more! By the way, I knew who Kibana was before i got to the end of the story. Yay, cool points for me! Anywho, lots of L.O.L.s at the thought of Juushirou dancing! And again, i really hope Keitarou doesn't get poor Juu-kun and hurt him!

Cant wait for more! :)

Good chapter! I doubt that Juu (being who he is) will be allowed to blend in at the wedding, but he can try! I can't wait to read what happens next!

Gosh. I feel realy sorry for Eiraki. You don't make it hard for the readers to hate Seimaru. Interesting development by the way. I never would've guessed that Seimaru's mother would play a role in Meifu's Gate...

=O Misashi imprisoned! Another short-term victory for Seimaru... Yet another unfortunate event to add to Hirata's growing list. >..>); he reminds me of Yasuhiro =P
And that part with the mistreated maid, I thought that was very well written: "the girl put a hand fleetingly to her throat" referencing that once scene in an earlier chapter where we see Seimaru half-throttling a poor girl (perhaps the same one! gasp!).

Oh, now that Shunsui's confirmed that Juu has the letter, my curiosity to know where he hid it grows.

The wedding approaches! Looks like Shunsui will have to teach Juu how to dance, hahaha =P The older, canon Ukitake-taichou seems like the type to enjoy dancing, at least in my mind, lol. Maybe this is my inner fangirl expressing her wishes, lol.

"I don’t intend on making a bigger scene than that – I’ll just blend into the background and with any luck any high ranking Clansfolk won’t even notice that I’m there!” Hahaha, somehow I don't see 'blending into the background' happening =P Juu's sure to make some waves at this =P

Good move, Seimaru, claiming that Shouichi took care of all the Urahara exiles. After all, dead men tell no tales, eh? Convenient.
Very exciting how Seimaru is slowly becoming warier of Keitarou. The suspense builds. o.o
And was that a hint as to how Keitarou's bankai works, I wonder? =D Or some other devilish scheme?

Ugh. Something tells me that Eiraki will do something to screw over the protagonists later in the story, lol.

Whoo! Great chapter! I've got a basketball tournament coming up, so I might not be able to read Meifu's on Saturday unless I can steal a laptop and internet =P But, I shall do my utmost! =D Thank you for a splendiferous chapter!

Wow, for some reason, Kibana is suspicious to me. I love how Aizen is totally playing Seimaru. In some ways, I am rooting for Aizen-or at least to really shake things up and give the main characters a hard time. I wonder just how Eiraki is going to get hurt.
