Lovely way of looking at the different sides of Kenshin... in a very literal way. The idea of a prism really fit, I loved that Kenshin gave one to Kaoru in the end.

Ahou is actually the same as Baka, its just an eastern dialect.

And Kenshin ends his sentences with de go"ja"ru, not de gozaru...

"-Dono" is the older version of "-Sama" its waaaay MORE respectful than "-san". -san is equivalent to Mr. or Mrs/Ms/Miss while -sama/-dono is like "My Lord" or "My Lady"

This was a truly epic fic.

But The Omake was one of the best parts, no lie.

I'm going to be hard-pressed to find a more entertaining story than this (well, in this genre, at least). ;D

To be perfectly frank, you *can* use italics for your emphasis. Makes it easier to read, actually. '

brittney

Whoops...I read through everything n forgot to review...lol'.';;

Anyway, I love your story! I espicially like the Battousai and Shinta relationship, ah, so sweet!

Funniest part was the Shinta tackles Battousai into water and gets suds on his head! Lol:D

Yep, u probably realise I'm more of a Battousai fan:) But this story is really really good, I could almost picture all the scenes, great job!

Keep writing! Luv this story!:D;)

ROFL! I laughed so bloody hard while reading Omake #2! Hilarious stuff. I love this story to bits!

I really enjoyed this chapter. It really goes into depth about what they all (mostly Sano, of course) thought of battousai. One of my favorite chapters. Well, I'm not very good at all with reviews and I really want to read the rest of the chapters. Ja ne! :D

"The rurouni dug around in the tub of water, pulling out one of Kaoru's underkimono."

rofl! At first I thought by "tub" you meant "bathtub". xDD Why did that horrible thought just go through my mind?

I love this story! 5/5 stars! I think the idea of Kenshin's split ki is awesome and I really like when all of the Kenshin's get in an argument. I've also wondered how everyone would react to the Battousai side of Kenshin. Well we kinda see that in the anime but not when he's not got the rurouni side to him.

I can't wait to read the rest...tomorrow! I love to just keep reading but it's five in the morning dang it and I need some sleep! )

Haha, "Sure, he could be a little eccentric about some things, especially laundry..."

"Kenshin had never apologized for his insensitive behavior back then" Interesting, I hadn't thought of that.

"it was hard to idolize someone who had flaws like everyone else." Good growing-up moment for Yahiko.

Just occurred to me, it's pretty interesting that Yahiko, of a samurai family, is actually higher in social rank than Kenshin, a peasant. Something I'd like to ponder over for a moment...

"While his nature was essentially childlike, he nevertheless carried all of Himura Kenshin’s memories inside him, and so he could be astonishingly clever and manipulative." Heh, I like that. And, "Figures that the only way I can talk to this kid is through the sword. Shinta, you know me far too well."

"His style of teaching was very different from Kaoru’s; he was a lot more patient, for one thing." Haha, I love that.

Man, all this Battousai/Yahiko interaction is way cool. "Seeing Saitou give someone flowers," rofl...

"Do you see a man who has known nothing but the world’s darkness for most of his life?” Poor Kenshin, it's true. Kamiya dojo's good for him.

Shinta tackling Battousai into the laundry tub. SO CUTE! _

"No wonder Hiko-san has no patience with him, if I had to raise a kid like that..." Very, very interesting; I love that idea.

"He's turned you against me." LOL, visions of Star Wars now dancing through my head...

Yanagi actually reminds me more of grief-crazy-Aoshi than Jin-e.

Haha, "You're pretty good at leaving stuff out when you want to hide something, but there's a reason you weren't a spy, ne?"

"The mistake with Tomoe was extremely regrettable" Rather humorous understatement.

Lol, "Getting Kenshin to stay put in a situation like this was like trying to prevent a member of the Shinsengumi from killing an Ishin Shishi."

"so young and eerily beautiful" In the manga, Battousai looks like a little elf-child. is in love with him.

Heheh, "Sano. Figures."

LOL, "*Battousai glowers at authoress and wonders why she enjoys torturing him so* Because, you're really sexy and cool when you're angry. 'Oh,' he says, and considers the Prosac with interest. 'Okay.'"

(meeting Akari) Oh Battou-chan, you were doing so well, too... ; Though I really can't see even Battousai at his most intense wanting to hurt a woman.

Speaking of police, is Saitou going to be able to join in the fun? (hopeful look)

I really like Akari.

Haha, "Just as he felt himself responding to his own calming words, another stray thought shot through his mind, distracting his calm reasoning."

Hee, Battousai doing the laundry is so cute. I like his self-consciously grumpy exchange with Sano.

Lol, maybe with two other sets of hands to help carry all the groceries, Kaoru's monster grocery lists won't be as much of a problem.

Haha, "He's not my brother, he's me!"

The Battousai/Kaoru bits are sweet. Kaoru's handling the whole awkward situation really well.

I don't agree with Sano. Battousai hasn't really mistreated anyone except the rurouni; he's prickly and tense, but not a jerk. Though, haha, that was really funny when Kenshin pointed out the similarities between Sano and Battousai, and the parallel with Zanza. ROFL, "That's right, Saitou has a secret fanclub devoted to me, and the Juppongatta and Enishi are all happy members. They follow me around and pick fights because they think I'm so incredibly nice and cool with my sword."

"He has no self-control because *I* am his self-control." Interesting.

Though I really don't think that Hitokiri Battousai was a jerk. Wishing Akira well in the afterlife after he'd just killed him, saving Tomoe from a bunch of drunks even though he didn't know her, even wanting to kill Jin-e for Kaoru's sake and treating his battle against Saitou with more efficiency than hatred - I just don't see why so many people envision Kenshin and Battousai as almost literally two different people. To me, they are the harder and softer edges of the same nature, not two people in one body. But I know that a lot of people seem to think differently.
