Reviews for The Cicada Factory
DoubleBoxEven chapter 3 . 5/19/2011
You know, I really, really love this story. I wish it could be made into a Lucky Star OVA, that would make my year. I hope you continue this sometime soon.

I liked this one! There are so few stories around Tsukasa, but she is great, and I think she really makes the show complete, at least for me, and I love her character. She is great in fanfics, and this story was great! I happily await anymore you care to write.

A nice addition. Despite the hectic task of getting ready to go, Tsukasa's scatter-brained process actually becomes an excellent example of how things can still work out - and with a little luck (late train). It's genius really in a subtle way that just reads 'this is the luck of Tsukasa', which is probably the biggest challenge writting AS her, first person view and not for her.

And Kagami's pondering over a simple and honest thing such as her sweet tooth was fun reading too. Hope the trip went well, cause a little havoc.

It's reassuring to see that you've posted up another chapter. I do like how you handle the thought processes and Kagami is becoming an increasingly comical character. I almost expected her to stroke the box of Pocky with affection.

It's really good to see that despite the time you've taken to write this, nothing seems rushed. It's a good reflection of how well the story will progress.

Poor Tsukasa keeps getting knocked down when she discusses pets...

Well, you've proved you're as bad at keeping to a schedule as I am.

And until next chapter, I can't comment on whether it's any good because this is a cliffhanger so...

Sometime before the end of the month, please? XD
Arker chapter 2 . 11/20/2009
I would say well worth the wait, i enjoyed it once again, and im quite intrigued to find out when/what the pet is coming in. other than that, you still have everyone perfectly in character, i like that a lot, and your speech is quite good, keep up the good work Mikuru, your doing great
Yoham chapter 1 . 11/3/2009
Hiya!

nice start, and nice (chapter-) ending, I can't wait to see what Konata has planned, but I will, so no pressure! X)

your writing-style has nothing to wail about, and it sure has a LS-feel to it. Keep it up!
Meiko Star chapter 1 . 11/3/2009
Aw This is awesome XD

YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME SOME TIPS SOMETIME :O

XD
ArmorBlade chapter 1 . 10/23/2009
Enough of my work for the moment, lets look at yours!

Very sweet - and well in-tune with the characters! Which is something I'm noticing more and more as of late that is lacking from recent fics. All their little mannerisms and jibbs fit nice making this pop, especially for Tsukasa. Love the title too, even if it has nothing to do with Circadas. Probably a symbolism of the laidback yet buzzing tone of the story?

Anyhoo, would definately like to read more and can't wait to see what it is Tsukasa gets.
WindCastWord chapter 1 . 10/19/2009
Not bad at all, I can sense Tsukasa's mind in this. She's rather underused so this happens to be a good story exploration for her. Keep it up and have fun!
Raineh Daze chapter 1 . 10/18/2009
... This is just bizarre. And you haven't even mentioned cicadas once, yet. If you don't mention them in the next chapter, it'll be strange. XD
Zokusho chapter 1 . 10/17/2009
Writing a review to mostly just add to your review count (n_n). I hope Tsukasa doesn't get Guinea Pigs, they are boring. And they bite. Fancy rats are much more interesting. For story potential, I would choose a cat or a dog.

I was a bit confused about Konata's sudden urge to run outside in the blazing heat, leaving the others in her house. That's unusual even for such a weird chick. She was staring outside - did she see something? Or did she just remember the anime/manga/game stuff she would have to buy? Or maybe she bought the pet for Tsukasa - although she described her purchase(s) as "the stuff". Well, I just have to wait for the following chapter(s)...
Shadowfox026 chapter 1 . 10/12/2009
Firstly "Kagami, the eternal voice of reason" I agree with completely! Your story is a good read. It has the lighthearted charm of the show which I love. I'd like to read more of this story, especially since the title hints at something interesting.

This story is certainly not a let down! And by the way, I may know where “Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time!” came from.

All the best with the next chapters.
seiji mikura chapter 1 . 10/12/2009
A great Tsukasa story as your debut story!

Well done, from the structure of the plot to the way you kept everyone IC. Looking forward to chapter two!
Arch3rher0 chapter 1 . 10/12/2009
Woo! Konata's having a manic episode!

It'd be nice if you separated your scenes with an extra space or a border of some sort, makes it a little easier to read.

I also visited your profile and would like to support your Hiyori idea, we don't get enough of her, or Patty really. They're hilarious.
