Okay this story seriously gave me some doubts from the summary but boy was I glad to give it a try anyway. Your writing style is so neat and and and... can I have it? /grabby hands

Seriously though, so far I don't see anything annoying with where this is heading (there are a lot of stories that just... ugh) and I'm actually curious about the development between KiriAn and NiouSayoko.

KUDOS!

/gives milk and cookies

I miss this story so much. I just reread for the first time in ages, and danggggg it's still unbelievable. Sayoko is probably the most Leo written OC I've read. Please continue!

I want to tell you that it's be 6 months and that I'm not okay with this...and then I realize that that's really mean and I should realize that you have other things to do and/or don't want to write this...but update soon?

Sorry about the review being cut off, so yes more fluff please! Haha and I would like to see more KiriAn, hopefully they can be back together, it was so sweet while it lasted.

Lastly: please update! Keep writing!

First off, I must apologize: I'd honestly wanted to review your previous chapters but couldn't bring myself to stop pressing the 'next chapter' button because your story is too damn addictive. This is also the reason why I spent my New Years Eve sitting in my bed reading your fic till 2am the next year xD

I really loved the way you characterized Kirihara and Niou. I've always thought it was a pity that Rikkai characters were not as developed as Seigaku characters, so the way you described them, both through their actions and inner thoughts, was so interesting to me.

Also I generally never read xOC fics, especially if the OC is the younger sister of a tennis regular, because the OC always comes across as shallow, the center of attraction and adoration by everyone just BECAUSE. So I was really glad and relieved that Sayoko didn't turn out that way, instead she's just as human as everyone else (perhaps more so than her divine brother). I loved how you made her an insecure person, then developed her into a more brave, I-will-stand-up-for-myself kind of person. Hopefully more xOC fics will have characters like that!

A tiny request: more fluff

...please update? I mean...really, please? Pretty please? With a cherry on top? ...actually, no. Candied cherries are nasty (sorry all candied cherry lovers!)...when I first ate one I was all excited and happy and expectant, but ohhhhh, no. They just had to taste nasty and superficial and...icky-ly sweet. Ummmm...so, I think a...strawberry would work? With lots of chocolate chips on top with dribbles of caramel and fudge sauce? Ah, just UPDATE.

Try listening to Linkin Park or Breaking Benjamin. Three Days Grace isn't all that bad either...Lost In You by TDG might fit the KiriAn you've got going and for Sayoko...Leave Out All the Rest, Numb, What I've Done, or In the End by Linkin Park.

Is this story never going to be updated anymore? I really love it :) Pweeeeez update :)

Go away cliffer. No one likes you.
Does singing to a turtle count? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme song is awesome. And it works for turtles.
Update soon! :D

I swear to god, if you don't continue this story I won't have any idea what to do with my life.
You made me ship kirihara and an. I never really liked them together but now, thanks to you, I do. I love your characterization of all the characters... And I loved Sayokos development. So very well done. I love this story. Just so much. I hope you continue this...

Sorry, my review got cut off (using my phone so it's pretty hard to control this thing).
Anyways, as I was saying, I was wary of both Sayoko and An. Sayoko for obvious reasons - her personality and all that - and An, because she seemed to... Perfect.
I like Sayoko much more now, to the point of adoring her (she's so cute!), and An because you show how she isn't as great as she seemed. She has her own flaws; her stubborn self-righteousness as Kirihara and Sayoko pointed out, and her... ignorance, I guess. I noticed how Kiko and, um, Hiyono? Sorry I might be mixing up names, but yeah, her two friends before Sayoko faded out really fast at first, and then forgot about it until it was brought up. I must say, you're subtleness is superb.
Anyways, I really need to get to my homework, so I'll stop pointing out your obvious awesomeness. Thanks for the fun read (and sleep deprivation), and pleasepleaseplease update soon!

Congratulations on winning that position! And...
OHMYGODHOWDOYOUWRITESOGOOD?
I love this story, both the awesome characterization, plot, development, writing, the amazing mix of humor and drama. The character development is fantastic.
To be honest, I was wary

To author's note: I LOVE JENNA MARBLES!

I love this story, and it thrilled me to see a new chapter!

You, my friend, are an ass.
For several reasons actually, but I'll only mention these: 1. for leaving a cliffhanger like this and 2. for being the prime reason of sleep deprivation in the world of Prince of Tennis fandom.
Seriously, I could -not- stop reading! Do you know how annoying it is when you can't stop reading and you have to wake up annoyingly early to go to work? And not continue to read? I mean, damn you.
Oh, and damn you for having such writing skills, I mean come on. Can't the rest of us get something?
I'll settle with an update, but only because I'm feeling nice.
