Argh I love this so much! This is the third story of how I've read and adored,, and I'm not quite sure how this is even possible but I feel more invested in this than maternal interference or send me a song. I've been following those two for a while and verbally cheer when there's an update,but I think I found a new favourite. And oh god, Ron! That is so incredibly mean,but at least I know I was right about his soul mate. Had a feeling about bellemere too but was not expecting THIS! I love how you incorporate soul mate mechanics into the entire working of the world's you write. It makes it easier and out so enjoyable to get lost in them. Thank you so much for all your beautiful ideas and works of art we call fanfiction!

good

Where is Hedwig?

Ahhhhhhh! So goood! My body is sooooooo ready for more

law is luffy’s soul-matei just love it

I don't really review much. But this story is amazing! So I'm leaving a review but I'm going to say sorry first if there was some spoilers.

(To the other readers, try not to read this review...if you don't want any spoilers until Luffy's highest bounty yet.)

I finished reading in two hours! So now I'm craving for more. Sorry if it might sound demanding. I totally am begging for a new chapter though.

Anyway, there had been quite a few things that I found weird in the story but I'm not gonna complain when I can't even remember which ones they were. I'm just going to say some things about the pairings for a bit.

The not even shocking Usopp and Kaya is nice. It would just make the Luffy vs Usopp battle for Merry more heart-wrenching. Unless of course, Usopp could effectively talk with Kaya about 'retiring' Merry.
Zoro and his possible soulmate: I think it was Kuina. The instinct comment spoke of personal experience. And it could well be since if Zoro didn't think much of it when he was a kid and that led to Kuina's death then all the more that particular piece of advice making sense. If not, *shrug* .
Sanji and his not even hinted at soulmate: I'm rooting for Pudding actually. Viola seems to be taken now anyway.

Luffy and Law: Luffy seemed like Holly in that he has many points to use. Obviously he wouldn't probably know how to use them when Law was still under Doflamingo's thumb. I'm just glad that he healed Law's scars because the system works on intent, yes?

Hermione and Vivi: I admit I like that it is a femslash pairing. Getting Hermione to become a pirate because her soulmate is a pirate might not be feasible. Vivi would not be a pirate (for long) and Hermione could help Vivi a lot when she decides to be just the princess she is instead of a princess and a pirate. I'm hoping that Hermione could drop a hint that it's possible for two girls to have their own kids using magic (even if it's just magical adoption) so that some of Vivi's worries would be eased. That could even happen when she assures Nami about Holly and their possible family.

Ron and Viola: I'm expecting it's Viola because of the dancer and balanced karma thing, as well as him being dumped at Dressrosa. What I do want to know is how does the system work around the forgotten toys as I'm assuming their soulmates just don't completely forget they have one. If they do forget the idea of their soulmate existing, that just makes the power Sugar had more horrifying. Makes me think that Doflamingo lost his soulmate all those years ago. He can't be like Voldemort who is implied to not have one, can he? *got distracted* On a side note, I at first thought Ron's soulmate was Robin but then that would have replaced an incredibly intelligent Hermione by another incredibly intelligent woman. So I realized that might not have worked out as great. I'm not even sure how they work out in the normal HP-verse.

Sirius and Bellemere: When I read that Sirius' soulmate died in the years he was in Azkaban, I thought it could be Bellemere. It would have been a tragic but amazing coincidence. Technically Sirius adopted Holly and Bellemere also adopted Nami. But I thought there are tons of characters that have died in those few years...maybe? Then Lily saying they should visit Holly's soulmate's mother. That pretty much confirmed for me it was Bellemere, but I still couldn't help being smug reading about it. I'm very happy for Sirius getting Bellemere back. He deserves happiness. It would be mean to get him to come with Holly and just be depressed about his soulmate being already dead. Also, it would have probably made a damper on the whole "let's meet Holly's soulmate." At least, with Bellemere being alive and probably wanting to at least meet the captain that helped free Nami, they would definitely try to meet with Nami together with Holly.

And finally Holly and Nami: so...I was happy that this is the pairing. Truly, I am. It's a FemHarry which I like more but they don't exist as much and a FemHarry paired with another girl is most definitely a big bonus. It sorta makes sense to me that Nami is into women instead of men, her 'attraction' to Hancock notwithstanding. Hancock is just too pretty. But I guess that's a part of why Holly reacted to Fleur as well. They'd get along well. Nami being older than Holly is fine. It's not as big a gap as Hermione and Vivi nor Ron and Viola and I have no problems with those. Holly having more hints should make the 'search' relatively easier. I'm just disappointed that the earliest they could meet requires a mermaid and that would be Kokoro-baachan. That's Water 7! I guess that leaves for Chopper's introduction and Robin's but why couldn't it have been Jaya instead? They could go to Skypiea together and Holly might be able to acquire all that gold Nami would have wanted and just maybe Enel could die to give Holly his Devil Fruit. But okay. I won't whine as much if it IS indeed Water 7. Because the next one to that would be Camie in Sabaody Archipelago. And if not even that, it would be on the Fishman Island itself two years after the timeskip so...please! Let it be Water 7? I don't care if Sirius get's traumatized by Kokoro-baachan as well. Although thinking about it right now, they might have met up in Enies Lobby? When Kokoro-baachan actually was swimming as a mermaid. It can happen, right? It would be more traumatic to all the boys aside from Luffy.

Other thoughts:

Robin might be partnered up with Zoro if his soulmate isn't Kuina. I'd rather it was Robin instead of Tashigi. Smoker can have Tashigi.

Chopper's soulmate might be Carrot? A very big maybe.

It would be hilarious if Franky's soulmate is Iceberg. That would explain their interactions in canon within the rules of the system. Would be a good reason for Iceburg trusting Franky even after all those years. But I don't have any more guesses aside from Robin again. It's just the recruitment process would be doubly hilarious (for everyone who isn't male) if she was his soulmate.

Brook and his soulmate...I don't even want to contemplate. Aside from Big Mom maybe...but that's still bad.

This story is incredible. I hope that it would get continued (begging for it to be soon). The Karma System being for someone else that could affect your life is an amazing concept. It being a heavily intent based system also means that you couldn't accidentally or begrudgingly use up points for your soulmate. There's no doubting involved in the you helped me why questions. At least not as much doubting. I'm hoping Ace finds his soulmate and he is being taken care of because he sorely needs that assurance. Ahem, where was I? Ah, yes. I like the Karma System. Thank you for making this story the way it is.

Just one more question. Two out of the Golden Trio are paired with princesses. Is Nami secretly a princess?

Hi,

I love this story. It's a totally different approach to the soulmate concept, and it is an idea that's working for me.

Your charactisation of Luffy and co is quite on point. Especially when he jumps into the sea to help Nami to earn the points to save Holly. Did I already mentioned that I love a female Harry? I don't know why but I love the concept.

Sirius soulmate is the mother from his "daughters" soulmate. That I didn't see but on the other side it fits. :D

A quick question: Luffys soulmate is Ace, right? I mean it would be totally Luffy to not recognize his brother as his soulmate.

I have a few ideas how Holly will find Nami, but I think I will wait for your next chapter.

Have a nice weekend and be safe

Ann

PS: Sorry for my bad English. I'm from Germany and while I can read and understand English quite well, writing is a totally different thing.:D

one of the few fanfics that made me cry. this is fantastic thankyou

This is utterly fascinating, and I very much hope to see more. Was the karma concert original to you? Or is it from some work I'm unfamiliar with?

wow sucks to be ron

YES! BELLE-MERE LIVE ONCE AGAIN! Also listening to final part of 'New Beginning' by Faulkner while reading the ending right there? Guaranteed feels.

Enjoying the story, but there are a couple continuity errors I've found.
Ch 5, Nami buys a hint, but in Ch 8, she tells Usopp that she never has.
Ch 7, Holly's death timer is done at 60 seconds by Bellatrix's count, but in Ch 10, Nojiko says the time limit is 100.

Need more

this is a master piece pleas continue .

I liked it looking forward to the next chapter
