Just finished reading this for the third time. LOVE IT. The pairing is unusual, but it's so sweet and believable the way you write it. The glimpse into Inui's personal life was great. I can totally see it like that. As a data person myself, I can sympathize with him having to let go and follow is instincts. I'd love a sequel - maybe in college? Thanks for the great story - I know I'll be reading it again.

Hahaha, what an unexpected journey! Thank you :)

this Pairing is just cute and funny would be interesting to see fujis reaction

Thank you. I really liked this story. It's fun, the characters are very realistic, and I couldn't stop smiling.

hehehehe fuji looses

This is unusual couple but with the best story ever with ryoma in it! Aww.. so cuute. I want to read when they go on date though, are you not going to continue this story anymore? Pity :(

This was so cute X3 I wish Ryoma had gotten to see Inui without his glasses, but still so CUTE! Little awkward tennis babies *gives you a plate of cookies and a glass of milk* OUTSTANDING JOB! :)

Inu/Ryo is not really my usual ship, but you just write it so well. I think the Inui POV you did was pretty awesome. The idea of him reading Cosmo and filling out all those dating surveys is pretty hilarious. D And of course Fuji would try and meddle in this the sadist lol. Brilliant work!

I loved it, I loved it, I loved it, I loved it!

Inui got one over on Fuji. That was brilliant. And I love the ending and how it came down to both Inui incorporating his data and throwing it out the window at the same time. A less dense Ryoma was a nice touch as well.

Reaching the end though, I have a hard time imagining you struggle to write this story. It all flowed so nicely. Like you wrote it all at one and chose the best places to end each chapter for maximum impact. I think you did a fanatastic job with a really difficult pairing.

That was very sneaky of Inui. Imagine if he joined forces with Fuji. That's actually a very scary thought.

This is actually the first InuiRyoma pairing I've read. Mostly for the reason you stated. They're just two characters that don't mesh because of Inui's lack of development as a character. It honestly comes a little late in the series.

But I read the summary and was like "I have to give this a try." And I'm glad I did. I love the way you portray Inui in this. It's a much more in depth him.

And then Inui dies from something by Fuji XD!

The last chapter was quite a surprise. I always thought Ryoma was oblivious to romance-related things. But it seemed otherwise. I couldn't help laughing when he said "...Senpai, are you hitting on me?" LOL That's my favorite line!
Anyway, nice fic!

such an unexpected pairing xD but you managed to bring a good story for them, good job!
I'm also always wondering how does Inui look like without his glasses... he might be gorgeous! but with how he always ended up doing embarassing things in the filler episodes... haha xD
anyway, once again, good job!
