Novels and Fiction: Wherefore Art Thou (Chapter 16-22) (Comments Off)


Wherefore Art Thou (Chapter 16-22) by i_wanderer@yahoo.com: Hana Yori Dango
*sigh* This fic is wild!! Too many things going on and I wanna know what happens next! After I read chapter 23, that would be it. I still hafta wait for the next parts. I hope the author hurries on writing it. ^^

True Self by Phoenix: Ranma 1/2; PG-13 for evil deeds and violence
Read the first paragraph and I must say it kinda bore me. It’s nicely written with such deep and descriptive words, yet it’s not catchy. I guess the author’s writing style isn’t my type. Here’s a summary of the fic: What if not everyone is what they seem? What if most of the people Ranma knows care a secret? One about to be revealed? What if that secret was going to change his live in ways he never imagined? Of course, he has to survive long enough for that to happen. Sounds interesting, ne? Mind you, if you’re not the type to read a long serious fic then don’t bother. Looks promising though…for the others.

24 by Azurite: Sailor Moon
Too much description, driving the fic to a slow pace. There are times when you need to remove words or sentences that are not very much important or need at all. I guess it’s the writing still, but I don’t prefer fics like that. The descriptions are okay though since they weren’t deep. Hmm…let’s just say there’s too much emphasis on every object, person, event, etcetera. I wish I could tell you what the fic is about, but sorry…as I said, I hardly read it. Visit the author’s site — http://www.geocities.com/sailor_andromida.

(Untitled fic) by Baine: Sailor Moon
A young woman with luminous blue eyes and golden blond hair held in place by an iridescent hair claw murmured her thanks as she stood up and shook the balding, pot-bellied principal’s callused hand before straightening her pale blue shirt and leaving his office, entering the hallways of Lunar High School.
Notice the running sentence?

There are several grammar errors (I ain’t good with grammar, but I can recognize what’s wrong or not. ^^ I ain’t perfect. *lol*) and the story pace is a bit fast. Usagi’s OOC and…ME DON’T LIKE! :P She’s got this annoying attitude…well…what can I say? She says one time in the fic that she grew up. ^_____________^V I make it look like everything’s real, ne? I don’t know if this fic was ever continued. SMRFF problems. I guess I just have to contact the author or check her site.

Novels and Fiction: Things to Come (Chapter 5) (Comments Off)


Things to Come (Chapter 5) by chelle815: Hana Yori Dango
^_^v I didn’t get the e-mail addy of the author, but I already commented on this story before so just look for it in the previous posts. Anyways, chapter 5 is a cliffhanger!! XP EVIL CHELLE815! *snickers* Just kidding! Did Tsukasa remember everything when he read the letter? Hmm…it wasn’t mentioned _yet_ what letter it was. It’s probably a wedding invite from Tsukushi. O_o’

Still nicely written here and I like the excitement placed on this fic. The kids are questioning their parents about the story of each. Tsukushi did share her past, but Tsukasa…still the stubborn guy…he never explained anything to his son. Oh yeah, won’t forget the good part in this chapter. *lol* Something’s going on between Tsukushi’s daughter and Tsukasa’s son. *wicked grin* History repeats itself?

Things to Come (Chapter 6) by chelle815: Hana Yori Dango
OMG! He did remember!!! It wasn’t a wedding invitation after all! *gyah* It would have been nice if he just went back to her after reading the letter, ne? But it was too late ‘coz he already has a wife. >P Such a sad, sad fate. Matte…why am I sharing you this?! You should read it! XDDD

No complaints on this chapter, but there are some grammar errors. Can’t be helped on that part. Sometimes you can miss small things when editing. Great cliffhanger, btw. Makes me wanna read more!

Things to Come (Chapter 7) by chelle815: Hana Yori Dango
Last chapter for tonight. Found a few grammar errors again, nothing big but noticeable. Something’s coming, I think. Good thing this would be the last chapter tonight ‘coz the cliffhanger isn’t that much exciting. *sweatdrop* I like the way the story is written. It is completely to the point, unlike the others with lots of adjectives. Welps, you get what I mean.

Novels and Fiction: Wherefore Art Thou (Chapter 3-15) (Comments Off)


Wherefore Art Thou (Chapter 3-15) by i_wanderer@yahoo.com: Hana Yori Dango
XDDD I tell you! I’m beginning to like this HYD fic! The story is getting more interesting every chapter. It seems all things going on has something to do _again_ with Doumyouji’s freaking mother Kaede! The negative side of this fic is…sometimes the wrong choice of words and missing punctuation marks. It seems that the author is also trying to make this into one of those _deep fics_. Welps, it’s making me confused that’s why I sorf of end up reading several paragraphs twice or thrice.

Hero by Malfoy: Gundam Wing; angst
O_o I didn’t realize this is a 2+H ficcie. Mou…this is a very sad fic though. I was thinking HeeroXDuo pairing would go better with this songfic. It really is a sad fic…you’ll prolly end in tears if you’re actually listening to Hero by Enrique Iglesias while reading. Nope, I’m not a big fan of Enrique Iglesias. I just got the chance to listen to it while channel surfind (saw it on MTV). The fic is available at GW Quarters. Gomen to the author…this is posted without permission. Please don’t sue me! ^_^v

Rings by Elyndys: Gundam Wing
Hmm, I could say this is one sappy fic. It’s nicely written as expected of Elyndys. ^_^

Say It Again by Shi-chan: Gundam Wing; ficlet, fluff, humor, shounen ai, PG-13
I must say, I agree with the author on the humor part. ^__________^ Duo’s really a baka…which makes the story even more kawaii! *lol*

Things to Come by chelleq815: Hana Yori Dango
Another amazing fic of HYD! XDDD I think there are already 13 or 14 chapters posted and I have read only up to 4. It’s really intriguing. ^_^ New choice of words, ne? Anyways, it’s a very nice read. The unexpected turn of events of Tsukasa not remembering anything at all is really saddening, yet it makes this fic more interesting. I think I’m still far on what the story is about. I mean, will Tsukasa suddenly remember? Is this story going to be about their kids and stuffu?

Novels and Fiction: Graduation/T.T.F.N.’02! by Lunar Neko-chan (Comments Off)


Graduation/T.T.F.N.’02! by Lunar Neko-chan: Sailor Moon; G
The title says it all, ne? ^_^ It’s a simple fic based on Usagi’s graduation day. You can prolly find the fic on the SMRFF site.

Tears Before Bedtime by Hyuy: Gundam Wing; 1×2, lime, slight language, OOC
My, what a sweet fic. I love the words used by the author on Heeor’s comments about Duo’s hair. Yep, it’s about Duo’s hair.

Drinking Games by Jen W.: Hana Yori Dango; Tsukushi+Tsukasa; slight drama, slight sap
Nice fic yet it was too serious for me to handle. I think this goes right after volume 28 where Tsubaki finds the two nearly doing _it_. ^_^

Tears at Midnight by Jen W.: Hana Yori Dango; angst
Such a short, but sad fic. If you want quick and nice short stories of HYD then this is one of them. I wonder how many angsty fics are out there of HYD. I mean, compared to fics with them being together and stuffu. Writing fics with HYD are a bit hard since the anime/manga itself focuses majorly on sappy/love stuffu…the most common in ficcies too, ne? Welps, you know what I mean.

Wherefore art Thou (Chapter 1-2) by i_wanderer@yahoo.com: Hana Yori Dango
I don’t know yet what rating to give this fic, yet this one is surely one to look forward to. The story is very interesting. I still have no idea what the story is about since I only read 2 chapters. If you haven’t, please read this too!

On Equal Grounds by Lelu and Mizu: Sailor Moon and Hana Yori Dango crossover
No warnings/ratings were mentioned. The first chapter is the only one posted and looks very promising. The first chapter is very long though. I wonder what will happen next. Looks like this would be one serious plot, but I wish they fix up the characters. I mean, some should switch places. ^_^ I couldn’t imagine Usagi being part of the _new F5_! *lol*

Fun by Kuris-chan and Nat-chan: Sailor Moon; comedy
Funny fic! ^_______________^ The stressed out Mamoru is hilarious and with how Usagi is treating him…I wonder how long he’ll last. *lol*

(untitled fic) by riskygroundsound@msn.com: Sailor Moon
I don’t know how to rate this fic. It’s very confusing for me, that is. Read it for yourself though.
