So far, this story has captured me and is currently gripping me. I was astonished to see you back on ! When I saw your name by the title, I couldn't help but to check it out. Those past two chapters were amazing! The feelings portrayed in the last scene were so raw. I cannot wait to see the next chapter!
I must add though, that I was depressed to see your miroku and sango website taken off the internet. Those stories were very beautiful and I was really looking forward to finish reading them , but they seem to have been discontinued. Will you continue your past stories and post them on your page? Do you know of the others , and if they will continue thier stories? I hope I wasn't being rude by saying that but I would really like to know. Let me know soon. And please update as soon as you can . The cliffhanger you left me hanging on is relentless! :)

Second time's the charm... the Internet ate my first review! T_T

Anyway, after the initial knee-jerk reaction...

I understand where Miroku's coming from (though I can't say I'm too pleased about it ^_^;;)... but I'm thinking he needs more time to think it out.

Kagome's reactions were true to her character (the Inu/Kag bit was a nice touch - in front of everyone, too!) and I can't wait to see the others' reactions to Miroku's decision.

Welcome back to the Pit (official greeting, 'cos you aren't back unless you've put up a multichapter work *grins*)!

I think I read the previous incarnation of this story some time ago, on an obscure web archive... though for the life of me, I can't remember much of it.

But anyway - enough of my ramblings.

I am loving the possibilities you've suggested here. The interactions between Miroku and Sango are natural and seamless. The characterization limitations - which you outlined at the beginning - are perfectly met; I applaud you!

Kindly ignore Ardy1; she obviously has no idea what she's reading.

I remember reading this from the first time it was posted.

You have a nice command of the written language, and the characterization is spot-on, if a bit generic given the final focus on Miroku.

The idea of Miroku's wind-tunnel disappearing should he go to Kagome's era makes perfect sense - they were successful in their quest to kill Naraku, evenually. Of course, it also makes perfect sense that Miroku would not be able to time-travel - presumably his soul was still on the wheel of life and going through various reincarnations (no WAY he would have reached nirvana in his own lifetime, and he had a lot of karma to make up on); it doesn't make sense that a soul could exist in multiple time periods, or even, maybe, in multiple dimensions.

You don't explicitly raise the question of Miroku making a choice between going back to Sango and staying in Kagome's era, free of the kazaana. Strangely, I don't see Miroku even seriously considering the latter, since he is caught up in the Confusian value of respect for ancestors, including revenge (part of what makes him understand Sango so well.) He is not, really, a particularly good Buddhist.

Anyway, it has been too long ago that I read the original version, so I can't say that I say any measurable improvements in this current incarnation. Still, it was interesting.
