I really wanted to write an indepth review on this fic, something meaniful, helpful, and filled with helpful criticism. This is such a good fic it deserves more than the measly (as of today) 18 reviews.
But for some reason, I can't think of anything... So instead, I'm going to ramble on for a paragraph or so. I hope some of it makes sense.
I really like this fic. I always enjoy when an author dares to write a fanfic about a lesser represented series. what's even better is that this fic is so well written. It has such layers... Like in this last chapter, it's almost painful to read Rin's rant about 'not letting feelings getting in the way' because you can just feel that she's deluding herself... Even more interesting is the subtle yet powerful way you've been portraying Manji's feelings (and any way other than subtle when it comes to things that don't involve). I like the twist that you seem to be going towards... that Manji after warning Rin about not getting romantic feelings seems to be falling into the same trap himself. At least, that's where I think you're going... Your showing these layers very well for the limited pov you've chosen too... letting get insight that the pov character isn't able to get is hard to do (does that make sense?).
I also really really really aprettiate the timely updates. Heck, I like your fic better than the actual manga (this might have something to do with me forgetting what was even happening in the manga by the time a new volume comes out... lol). I'm looking forward to more! ^_^

I've read all three of your fics, and I love each of them. Especially this one. You keep everything realistic and that's usually very hard to come by these days.
Can't wait for the next update ^^!

This is a really good story. You have the characterization down, and the lemon are very sexy. I was so happy to see a BOTI fic on this site, and I was especially happy to be able to read a excellently written one. I can\'t wait till you update again.
