salishious chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 very fun chapter... .. The agency of doom's name...only one thing popped in my feeble mind .. .. Knowledge ** with the tag line " We know you " .. It only got to me because Knowledge has no bearing whatsoever... however.. when people hear... or see the tag line "We know you" randomly appear (think of Bad Wolf from Dr Who) and it becomes associated with Knowledge... the simple phrase (an by association name) will frighten almost anybody.. and it could be anywhere.. |
HuntingPudel chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 I think that Ms. Aoyama could belong to the Inter-Dimensional Intelligence Agency, or IDIA (pronounced "Idea"). |
moon so bright chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 Nice bit of fluff with the Tendo's and Nabiki's friends, and the intimidating Gosunkuni thing was hilarious. My favorite part, however, was the bits about the students and professors heading off for their trip, just because that plot line has interested me since it popped up. |
keichan2 chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 “It needs to be gently threatening in a very polite manner, ideally rather unnerving when you think about it for a while :) Creepy is good, oh yes it is.” I thought about a multiple words name of which the acronym spells something interesting, but then realized that it wouldn’t work in multiple languages… Too bad! (Or you would need to have someone knowing said language going pale, then explain afterwards… It would probably become repetitive…) note: I guess that it is for the Arctic expedition that you need a name for Ms Aoyama’s organisation… note2: I guess the girls will be happy that Chou altered their costume… (I’m pretty sure they will have to go there… ;-p) “Spelling mistakes” Bwahahahahaha! I loved that one! :-D “four kilos of the best coffee beans” I guess the one he is going to meet isn’t a local… ;-p “the portal to Minato was still crackling away” Err… Will they have to chase two soarers in Minato? ;-p (edit: They were lucky! :-D) Thanks for the new chapter! I hope to read more soon! |
Cemalidor chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 Fun to read, with some more character development. :) Regarding the first paragraph... Well, "Myth Inc." is already taken iirc. :XD "THE Agency" doesn't have the right ring imho. ... Maybe: (T)ransuniversal (A)gency of (D)iplomatic (A)ffairs ? Yeah, I know I'm in a silly mood here. |
god of all chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 Great chapter and story so far please continue this story soon. |
Darth Thanatos chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 Nicely done, as always. About name suggestions for Ms Aoyama's (btw, that means "Blue Mountain, right?) organization, I'd suggest a somewhat bland name, like "Intelligence division of the Ministry of Inter Dimensional Affairs". If you want it to sound more belligerent and ominous, you can replace "affairs" with "warfare". As in preventing it, not causing it, obviously. But people tend to make wrong assumptions. The fun part is that, as it is an alien organization, the untranslated name in a made up alien language, can sound to human ears absolutely terrifying. Take for example, the RL name of "State's Secret Police". Well, any name that puts together "secret" and "police" in the same breath sounds ominous already, but let's translate it to its original, untranslated name... Geheime StaatsPolizei And then use the shortened form: GeStaPo See? From somewhat boring and bureaucracy-sounding to terrifying. Another point is about the soarers. I can't help but think that they sound like this: watch?vcBkWhkAZ9ds (note: as is notorious for removing and mangling URLs, you can go to youtube and search for the key "cBkWhkAZ9ds". The first link should be it) Basically, it's the cutest sound in the world made by (arguably) the ugliest frog in the world. My guess is that it kills any possible predators with a sugar overdose. |
Daughter of Ether chapter 98 . 5/23/2016 fantastic. things progress ever closer. And cologne's thoughts on Ms Aoyama continue to amuse. ~Ja ne |
Jerry Unipeg chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 Great chapter! Looks like the Soarers know when to behave them self. Love the part with Hararu. Love the meeting and getting alone with another race. |
Rogue7 chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 Awesome chapter, full of fun |
Rogue15 chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 Once again, you caught me right when I should be sleeping... Just as well that I was re-reading the whole story from scratch anyway, just got to the Hollywood chapter again... This was a very nice chapter, got to see a lot of things from a different perspective, which is always interesting. Spent some time thinking on a Organization name and finally figured out that I am really bad at it. Best I could come up was IRI for Inter Reality Intelligence. Not creepy enough though. Keep thinking that whatever they come up with it might start actually being a reality with other worlds calling on them to troubleshoot issues. Really like the idea that despite all their joking and Yor's resistance to the idea, they actually end of creating something without meaning too. Every time I read a chapter of yours I come away wanting more and dearly hoping that you do not get tired of writing any time soon. There are so may stories that could be told in this universe. I have said it before, but I find myself even enjoying the side stories. The newest small one on the Antarctic expedition should be interesting as well. I know some would say that they are getting too powerful to write about, I would say they lack imagination for a good story. I am loving the character interaction and the exploration of magic and other worlds as much as the fight scenes. Plus, it is a big multiverse out there... Again, thank you very much for all the time it takes you to write this, I am very much enjoying what you write and hope to continue reading more of it for some time to come. |
Guy the Crossoverfanatic chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 well if originality is not an issue, the Watchers would be fitting, the logo would be a large vertical purple eye think slits for an iris and a stylized egyptian-like eyebrow arching out on the right (considering i feel Ms Aoyama has traits of feline demon, i felt giving her an egyptian touch would be fitting). if Watchers is too plaid, well...how about Ω? Even have the slogan thought up "We were not at the beginning, but we will be at the end, knowing everything." |
goddragonking chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 great chapter , love the way this story is going, keep up the excellent work! Keep the good writing and hope for more update soon can't wait to read more:) |
Rusty Thebanite chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 My suggestion for a vaguely creepy mysterious organization name would be...the Bureau of Space and Time. Or maybe The Administration. Of course, the chapter is quite entertaining. I was genuinely worried when part of Nabiki's secret was almost exposed, and I'm excited for what the side characters will discover off the coast of Ellesmere Island (I also accidentally thought it was Halleckton for a moment. Derp). I also fear for their sanity when they find out their Crazy Theory was true. But...the demonic duck...do you read El Goonish Shive by chance? Just curious. Loved the new reactions to the D'Sage and their world, as well as the anecdotes of the soarers' activities. I was also genuinely happy that the reunion is getting closer! Seeing Gosunkugi meet Mrs. Aoyama was of course highly entertaining as well. We finally saw Zythra'a in action! It really makes me hope that you like my offers for Aoyama's organization title. Zythra'a will be billed as a member as well, I expect? Anyway, loved the whole thing! |
witchshift chapter 98 . 5/22/2016 You have an entertaining story here. I think the only substantial critique I have is that the majority of your characters all have the same speech pattern- especially when it comes to adverbs. Everything is almost always 'very something', or 'something indeed' etc. It's disconcerting to read a conversation between two or more people with completely different cultural backgrounds and realize that the only thing to differentiate them is the basic structure of written dialogue. |
