Emori Loul chapter 4 . 6/18/2018 First off, I love the online fan wars Kaito has over Conan, as well as his handle XD "kidzrule" works on so many different levels, both for his support of Conan and for his own secret identity. Speaking of which, if I'm right, it looks like both him and Conan have the same ironic sense of humor when it comes to screennames. How did they both think making their psuedonyms jokes on their secret identities was a good idea? XD I have one disagreement with the differences in Conan and Hakuba: I would say Hakuba is generally more unscrupulous with evidence and a lot more prideful about it, given how doggedly he persues Kaito in canon (even handcuffing his civilian identity to him and DNA testing his hair) but due to his one-track-mindedness, he has more difficulty handling Kaito's tricks and isn't tricky enough himself to actually get the evidence he could otherwise obtain. For example, KID's handed Conan things with his bare hands (to be fair, in non-canon specials) and even, if I remember correctly, handed over a burn phone on the Mystery Train case, something that could easily be traced back to him with Conan's FBI resources, but Conan seems to have enough respect for their "Gentlemen's Duel" agreement that despite being willing to manipulate KID into helping him save lives, Conan doesn't actually use the evidence KID hands him while doing so. I don't think canon Hakuba would have done that, at least not without more character development. Hakuba's more unscrupulous, but Conan's more tricky. Ayumi's scrap book is the best, and possibly very damaging for her future self depending on how her life goes and who wants to see it. Also, I love how Akako started out trying to control Kaitou KID and ended up unintentionally getting a social life. Although Conan can canonically do (at the very least) basic cooking. His mother taught him before she and Yusaku left for overseas because he needed to be able to take care of himself when he lived alone. I'm not sure how comfortable I am with Akako's spell perminantly changing relationships in the cast. I'm kinda hoping the twist is that it wasn't just Akako's spell even if it did make things more likely, because friendship based solely on that will screw things up eventually, even for Akako. "I guess it's too much to expect a giant mansion in the middle of the city." Is that a joke about the Kudo house? Because it should be. That house actually looks SMALLER from the front than it really is. When you google a map of Beika and compare the Kudo house to the size of the other buildings in the city, it's ridiculous. It takes up half a street in the middle of the densely packed city and looks comparatively between a third to a half the size of the Haido shopping mall. It takes up twice as much ground space as the apartment buildings and hotels. On the map, it, the house across from it, and Sonoko's mansion are all around the same size and are pretty obviously the biggest private households in the city. What I'm saying is, Conan deserves to have his house invaded by all of his friends at all hours, because that house is way too big for the handful of interior rooms the series has shown. More characters should live there. *ahem* Back on topic, this story is funny and adorable, and I eagerly await whatever is next. |
Red Moon Lollipop chapter 4 . 3/14/2018 I have reread this story so many times, it's one of my absolute favorites. I love how you write every character, and I love the interactions between them so much. Friendships are my absolute favorite and I love how naturally they all seem to be developing even with Akako's less than noble intentions for pursuing them. I just love this story a lot! |
Just a ghost chapter 3 . 6/9/2017 Oh man, Kaito getting into a flame war to defend Conan is beyond hilarious. Poor HeinseiTeen though, he just wants everyone to enjoy the cases. Speaking of which, is he Heiji? |
The Symbol of Faith chapter 4 . 5/15/2017 Wow! Another wonderful chapter! And, Saguru and Kaito's slowly budding friendship is really nice to read about! I wanted to know if the movies are taken into account here, considering how Kaito clearly sems to be more fond of Conan than Saguru (probably knowing how the little detective had no qualms about bending the rules a bit to get his job done?) or is it just the friendship sprung from all those Suzuki Jirokichi challenge heists? By the way, I reccommend changing this to a normal DC fic instead of a crossover (there is really no need for a crossover when their stories are so interlinked...), so that you may get more viewership! I really think this fic deserves more love! _ Great job! I look forward to the next chapter! Cheers! |
Kameo1 chapter 4 . 5/12/2017 YEEEEESSS! Every chapter just makes me love this story more as more! I love how you've managed to balance each character while not feeling forced. And watching Akako'a frozen heart slowly melt with the power of friendship is just the sweetest! I'm excited to see where this goes! Thanks for sharing and good luck writing! |
