Fahdza chapter 1 . 8/26/2019 I chocked up too many times reading this piece T_T |
meladi1 chapter 1 . 1/20/2019 This is so freaking sweet! Jii and Yukiko are the best. I was almost crying tears of joy when Kaito became happy again. |
3DPhantom chapter 1 . 1/6/2018 This story was fucking BRILLIANT~! This is the best story I've read in a long time, and I read every goddamn day. It takes a lot to impress me, I'm quite a stickler, but Hell, this was FANTASTIC! The concepts expressed are really deep and moving, and despite it being so short, it made me want to just BAWL and make all sorts of a mess with broken things and tears. Yet, in the end, it didn't leave me with the long-suffering heart-ache which usually accompanies any story I read that's strong enough to make me cry. It had the same heart-clenching impact of stories where Kaito dies, but without the inevitably depressing ending: Without the finality that death brings, and which makes e depressed whenever I think about it for days to come. What a relief it is, to read a story where I get a good cry but don't end up a horrible mess for days on end afterwards! This story was So. Damn. Good... Also, you must think me an emotional trainwreck waiting to happen, but I assure you, such is not the case. Anyway, keep up the good work~! |
SakuraS41 chapter 1 . 10/11/2017 You started the story on such a sad note and I couldn't think of how you'd bring Kaito back, and then the voice acting came out. I'm glad he found another place to shine. That was a beautiful story! Thank you! |
RoonRune chapter 1 . 6/21/2017 So much! So good! Love! Thanks for writing! |
long live marshmallows chapter 1 . 7/13/2016 Ahh this is amazing! From tears to joy. Tears to joy. All the way. I like this idea! |
Redmage2 chapter 1 . 4/19/2016 Oh man, my heart went out to Kaito here. What a great fic! |
tanteibouzu chapter 1 . 4/14/2016 never dissapointed with anything you write , this is absolutely beautiful and inspiring . |
DragonSorceress22 chapter 1 . 1/3/2016 I... I want to hug this story. As that is ill-advised in the consideration of my laptop's health, I settled for crying. |
Encryption System chapter 1 . 10/7/2015 No! How could you do this!? A Kuroba without his tricks? Unspeakable! Lol. Great story, and Kaito does have the talents to be an actor or voice-recorder thingy. Maybe he would've went to Akako to see if she could heal him? -TMD |
kdm13 chapter 1 . 10/3/2015 'M not gonna cry. Not gonna cry. I'm crying. Beautiful. And voice acting is a great outlet, yes. |
Hebiaczek chapter 1 . 9/18/2015 That was so heartbreaking and even despite the cheer at the end it is still so sad... |
bubblyangel101 chapter 1 . 6/28/2015 This is so heartbreaking...but so true. I love the attention you give to every facet of Kaito's character, especially all the masks he must have. Though I think Aoyama-sensei intended for Magic Kaito to originally be just a fun, laughable thing, it's really evolved over the years to mean something more: a boy, forced to grow up, forced to plan and plan and plan and dream and believe in something he doesn't even know. You've brought that to life perfectly by showing us that Kaito really does need the spotlight to act like himself. To show what happens underneath the surface-and what makes us love Kaito so, so much. |
Guest chapter 1 . 5/22/2015 This is beautiful. I love Jii and Yukiko, and their plan. And Kaito was breaking my heart but I was smiling so hard for him in the booth. I felt very smug on his behalf when he started showing off. :) So many feelings, so believable, so in character. Just a wonderful story. Thank you. |
Misty Reeyus chapter 1 . 5/14/2015 I'm actually just so amazed right now. Characterization was ON POINT, you portray Kaito's emotions so well and Jii's plan is brilliant and pulling Yukiko into it had me shrieking aloud because of course she'd be part of this. Just overall, absolutely wonderful. |
