Lazydevilofdeath chapter 1 . 2/19/2016 Ah... did Sanada ever find out the true meanings of the sentences |
LovelyLysa94 chapter 1 . 2/24/2012 Akaya really shouldn't ask for Marui and Niou's help in homework! |
M chapter 1 . 3/11/2011 lol I found this pretty hilarious, but it left me curious as to what were the sentences... ;D |
lemon-and-chai chapter 1 . 9/30/2010 LOL I loved it, thank you. Yes, Rikkai needs many, many more fics. XD |
SleepytimeTea chapter 1 . 8/30/2010 _ This was hilarious! And you are absolutely right, Rikkai needs more fic. I just would like to comment that I'm pretty sure Rikkai isn't a 'Daigaku'. Daigaku, or written literally as 'big school' in Chinese character, or kanji, means college in Japanese, and all of the schools in Tennis no Oujisama are junior high schools (even though it really doesn't seem that way). Also, Rikkai is called 'Rikkaidai Fuzoku Chuu', and the 'Chuu' (which is middle in kanji) stands for 'chuugakkou', or middle school, so I think that the 'Dai' part in 'Rikkaidai' is just part of its name. Sorry, that was just bugging me. Thank you for writing this awesome fic! |
tokiya-kun18 chapter 1 . 7/26/2010 Gosh, Genichiro, who would've thought you're not very good at English? And the fact that you're this. . .dense? I really love this scene: "Ah, before that…Sanada?" The said guy stopped his activity mid-track, turning to his Angel. "Yes, Yukimura?" "I have yet confirmed from you the truth of the second sentence." Upon hearing that, the Rikkai regulars' minds were immediately reminded of the sentence. 'Oh that'. They resumed changing their clothes, but ears were drawing close to the fukubuchou. A silence fell in the room. Sanada was too speechless to search for words; for he was afraid he misinterpreted the sentence. Yanagi only sighed deeply at his friend's jealously. After minutes of no words from Sanada, the data master decided to help the fukubuchou. "Seiichi." It was only a soft call, yet it snapped Yukimura back to reality and he looked down sadly. It's a warning of his place, for he isn't Sanada's boyfriend and thus, has no right to ask the question. "I'm sorry, Sanada, just…" "Yukimura," Sanada suddenly interrupted. All eyes now set on the fukubuchou, waiting for any reply to come from the normally silent boy. "I've never cheated on you. Believe me. Especially with Atobe, I wouldn't!" "Sanada…" The fukubuchou suddenly grasped the bluenette's hands, staring deeply into the blue orbs, unaware of the spectators around them. "Believe me, Yukimura! I have never and will never cheat on exams or look at your test sheets!" The capped-boy confessed seriously. HAHAHAHAHAHAH! If only Genichiro wasn't this dense, then he wouldn't have said the wrong thing. With the cheating part, of course. But, hm, what would happen if Genichiro answered with a 'yes'? I'm sure Seiichi would punish him. . .badly. Oh noes! *Nosebleed. Me and my imagination. XD Please make another sequel! |
doy.doy chapter 1 . 2/18/2010 "The fukubuchou suddenly grasped the bluenette’s hands, staring deeply into the blue orbs, unaware of the spectators around them. 'Believe me, Yukimura! I have never and will never cheat on exams or look at your test sheets!' The capped-boy confessed seriously." Go Sanada. xD |

rini anointed436 chapter 1 . 11/4/2009 Continuing from previous review... 33. Sanada only nodded in acknowledgement –though he still didn’t understand the sentences- and Yanagi silently thanked God for his closed-eyes, the teacher and Yukimura definitely couldn’t see him rolling his eyes. Correction: Sanada only nodded in acknowledgement-–though he still didn’t understand the sentences-and Yanagi silently thanked God for his closed eyes. The teacher and Yukimura definitely couldn’t see him rolling his eyes. 34. Thus if the second sentence EVER happened, it couldn’t be called cheating. Though, he was 98% sure, that Atobe Keigo wouldn’t suddenly change his type from the Akutagawa-type to the Sanada-type, for he thought surely, anyone would prefer Heaven over the Earth. Correction: Thus, if the second sentence EVER happened, it wouldn’t be called cheating. Though, he was 98% sure that Atobe Keigo wouldn’t suddenly change his type from the Akutagawa-type to the Sanada-type, for he surely thought anyone would prefer Heaven over the Earth. - "Could" is the past tense of "can" that means the same as "being able to do something." "Would" is used to predict something that may eventually happen. Pay attention to word usages. 35. Hyotei would never do a strip party. Not until Shishido, Oshitari and Atobe could stop their over-protectiveness of their own boyfriends. Correction: Hyotei would never do a strip party until Shishido, Oshitari and Atobe would stop their overprotectiveness of their own boyfriends. - The sentence fragment beginning with "not" is an incomplete sentence. 36. As for the 4th sentence, that was something nobody needs to know of. Correction: As for the fourth sentence, that was something nobody needs to know about. 37. And the idea of the 5th was quite thrilling him into inventing something to make it come true. Correction: The idea of the fifth one was quite thrilling him into inventing something to make it come true. 38. Mr. Ishida curved a big, big smile. “It’s a relief to hear that Yukimura-kun. I don’t want to give you three, the favorite students, a moral lecture for the day.” Correction: Mr. Ishida's lips curved a big, big smile. “It’s a relief to hear that, Yukimura-kun. I don’t want to give you three, the favorite students, a moral lecture for the day.” 39. “Well…looks like the bell’s ringing. You all may go now. I wouldn’t want to make the three Top students late for their classes.” Correction: “Well…looks like the bell’s ringing. You all may go now. I wouldn’t want to make the Three Top Students late for their classes.” - Capitalizing someone's title puts strong emphasis on the person. 40. “Thank you Sensei.” Correction: “Thank you, Sensei.” 41. Right after the Counseling Room’s door was closed by the bluenette buchou, they were greeted by the gentlemen and defender of their team. Correction: Right after the Counseling Room’s door was closed by the bluenette buchou, they were greeted by the gentleman and the defender of their team. - "Gentlemen" is the plural form of "gentleman." It's necessary to put the word "the" before "defender" because you're refeing to two people, Yagyuu and Jackal. 42. “What is it, Yagyuu? Please make it fast; I don’t think I can be late for my Art class,” Yukimura stated clearly showing his bad mood. Correction: “What is it, Yagyuu? Please make it fast. I don’t think I can be late for my art class,” Yukimura stated, clearly showing his bad mood. 43. “Uhm, well sorry to slow you but…” Jackal rubbed his head in anxiety, “Marui and Niou already went home. Their classmates had just informed us that they won’t attend the practice.” Correction: “Uhm...well, sorry to slow you down, but…” Jackal rubbed his head in anxiety. “Marui and Niou already went home. Their classmates had just informed us that they won’t attend practice.” 44. “Since they went right after you three were called into the Counseling Room, I presumed their escapes have something to do with it?” Yagyuu added fixing his glasses. Correction: “Since they went right after you three were called into the Counseling Room, I presume their escapes have something to do with it?” Yagyuu added, fixing his glasses. 45. Yukimura curved a very sweet smile. Correction: Yukimura's lips curved into a very sweet smile. 46. “Oh, so that means Sanada and you two are free right?” Correction: “Oh, so that means Sanada and you two are free, right?” 47. Jackal, Sanada and Yagyuu knew only too well they had no answer but ‘yes’. So they only nodded. Correction: Jackal, Sanada and Yagyuu knew only too well they had no answer but ‘yes,’ so they only nodded. 48. “Great! Well, I’ll see you guys in the practice!” With that Yukimura left waving at them. Correction: “Great! Well, I’ll see you guys at practice!” With that, Yukimura left waving at them. 49. Practice…it would be rough today. Correction: Practice… It would be rough today. 50. Niou and Marui looked at each other nervous. They admitted they went a little too overboard this time. Correction: Niou and Marui looked at each other nervously. They admitted that they went a little too overboard this time. 51. The trickster and tensai gulped.

Correction: Upon hearing that, the Rikkai regulars’ minds were immediately reminded of the sentence. ‘Oh, that’.

Correction: Sanada was too speechless to search for words; for he was afraid that he misinterpreted the sentence. 55. Yanagi only sighed deeply at his friend’s jealousness. After minutes of no words from Sanada, the data master decided to help the fukubuchou. Correction: Yanagi only sighed deeply at his friend’s jealousy. After minutes of no words from Sanada, the Data Master decided to help the fukubuchou. - A dictionary could come in handy. 56. “Seiichi,” It was only a soft call, yet it snapped Yukimura and he looked down sadly. It’s a warn of his place, for he isn’t Sanada’s boyfriend and thus has no right to ask the question. Correction: “Seiichi.” It was only a soft call, yet it snapped Yukimura back to reality and he looked down sadly. It’s a warning of his place, for he isn’t Sanada’s boyfriend and thus, has no right to ask the question. 57. “I’m sorry Sanada, just…” Correction: “I’m sorry, Sanada, just…” 58. All eyes now set on the fukubuchou; waiting for any reply to come from the normally silent boy. Correction: All eyes now set on the fukubuchou, waiting for any reply to come from the normally silent boy. - A semicolon is normally used to separate two complete sentences in one long sentence. 59. The fukubuchou suddenly grasped the bluenette’s hands, staring deeply into the blue-orbs eyes, unaware of the spectators around them. “Believe me, Yukimura! I have never and will never cheat on exams, even more looking at your test sheets!” Correction: The fukubuchou suddenly grasped the bluenette’s hands, staring deeply into the blue orbs, unaware of the spectators around them. “Believe me, Yukimura! I have never and will never cheat on exams or even look at your test sheets!” - "Orbs" and "eyes" are the same thing. You may either write it as "blue orbs" or "blue eyes." 60. It was none other but the laughters of the trickster and the tensai of the team. Correction: It was none other than the laughters of the trickster and the tensai of the team. 61. As to Yukimura? He only blinked at them and slowly moved his eyes towards the two people who were rolling on the floor, clutching their stomachs with difficulties. Correction: As for Yukimura? He only blinked at them and slowly moved his eyes toward the two people who were rolling on the floor and clutching their stomachs with difficulties. 62. And so the trouble-makers exited the clubroom with no protest but still laughing. Correction: And so... The trouble-makers exited the clubroom with no protest but were still laughing. 63. Hours later after the practice, Sanada Genichiro locked himself in his room with dictionaries scattered around him, searching for the right meaning of the word ‘cheating’. Correction: Hours later after practice, Sanada Genichiro locked himself in his room with dictionaries scattered around him and searched for the right meaning of the word ‘cheating.’ Sorry to bother you with this very long list of mistakes, but I feel that it's necessary to point them out. Hopefully you'll be able to keep improving in writing. |
rini anointed436 chapter 1 . 11/4/2009 I'm getting some amusement out of reading this sequel as much as its prequel. xD That's to be expected from Sanada since he's not the type to take romance-related stuff seriously (just like Echizen Ryoma) and considers tenis of utmost importance to him. I like the SanaYuki (or YukiSana) implications in this fic. It's good that you have this beta'd. Though, there are still some noticeable grammatical/punctuation errors worth looking over (also concerning the sentence structure). Here are the mistakes that I've spotted: 1. The sky was…well you know how every cliché prologue of beautiful day would be. Correction: The sky was… Well, you know how every cliché prologue of a beautiful day would be. 2. Well of course, to prevent anyone laying their dirty hands on his beautiful bestfriend. Correction: Well, of course, to prevent anyone laying their dirty hands on his beautiful best friend. 3. But he was satisfied just by watching the white, creamy-soft skin, the soft looking hair, the bright, glittering eyes and the sweet-gentle smile. Correction: He too admired-–though Niou usually called it ‘worshiped’-his friend greatly, but he was satisfied just by watching the white creamy-soft skin, the soft-looking hair, the bright glittering eyes and the sweet gentle smile. - A phrase beginning with a conjunction like "but" shouldn't stand alone since it's considered a dependent clause, which makes it an incomplete sentence. 4. For he wanted to protect the pure smile of his White Lily. Correction: He wouldn’t dare to touch his friend in that kind of way, for he wanted to protect the pure smile of his White Lily. - Refer back to Number 3. 5. A middle-aged man stared at his door, moving all paperwork aside before sitting properly on his arm-chair. Correction: A middle-aged man stared at his door, moving all paperwork aside before sitting properly on his armchair. - "Armchair" is just one word together. 6. The door-knob turned round and the door was opened. Three guys entered the room, bowing respectively at the teachers in front of them. Correction: The doorknob turned round and the door was opened. Three guys entered the room, bowing respectively at the teacher in front of them. -"Doorknob" is just one word together. Since there is no teacher other than Ishida in the room, the word "tracher" should be singular without the "s" to make it plural. 7. After the three students settled down on the sofa, Mr. Ishida sat down on the arm-chair in front of them. Correction: After the three students settled down on the sofa, Mr. Ishida sat down on the armchair in front of them. 8. “So, why did you call us Sensei?” Yukimura asked, smile never leaving his beautiful face. Correction: “So, why did you call us, Sensei?” Yukimura asked, his smile never leaving his beautiful face. 9. “And what would that might be?” Sanada asked, a bit impatient. Correction: “And what would that be?” or “And what might that be?” 10. “Impatient, aren’t we Sanada-kun?” Correction: “Impatient, aren’t we, Sanada-kun?” 11. The friendly man pulled out a red-book which was quickly recognized by the three as their junior’s. Correction: The friendly man pulled out a red book which was quickly recognized by the three as their junior’s. 12. “What does Akaya’s homework have to do with you calling us, Sensei?” The stoic, capped-boy asked again quirking an eyebrow. Correction: The stoic capped-boy asked again, quirking an eyebrow. 13. “Oh it has something to do with this, of course Sanada-kun! I wouldn’t show it if it didn’t! Believe me, it isn’t a big problem, though the nurse in the clinic insisted it was!” The teacher replied smiling. Correction: “Oh it has something to do with this, of course, Sanada-kun! I wouldn’t show it if it didn’t! Believe me, it isn’t a big problem, though the nurse in the clinic insisted it was!” The teacher replied, smiling. 14. “Ah, just as I’ve heard,” Yanagi suddenly cut. Correction: “Ah, just as I’ve heard,” Yanagi suddenly cut in. 15. “And what have you heard Yanagi-kun?” Correction: “And what have you heard, Yanagi-kun?” 16. “Today, the third period of class 2-D which was English, was suddenly cancelled, approximately 9 minutes 23.9 seconds after it started. Right after that, 13 female students and 15 male students including the English teacher; Ms. Hikari, headed to the clinic for major nosebleed and nausea. The nurse even insisted to call for an ambulance, but they managed to be taken care of 17 minutes 13.5 seconds after that. The reason for all the commotion is in that book.” Yanagi reported smoothly. Correction: “Today, the third period of class 2-D, which was English, was suddenly cancelled approximately 9 minutes and 23.9 seconds after it started. Right after that, 13 female students and 15 male students, including the English teacher, Ms. Hikari, headed to the clinic for major nosebleed and nausea. The nurse even insisted to call for an ambulance, but they managed to be taken care of in 17 minutes and 13.5 seconds after that. The reason for all the commotion is in that book.” Yanagi reported smoothly. 17. Mr. Ishida smiled, “As accurate as ever Yanagi-kun! Anyway, that’s right, the reason for the sudden cancelation of the English period in class 2-D is this.” He said, waving the red-book in front of the three seniors. Correction: Mr. Ishida smiled. “As accurate as ever, Yanagi-kun! Anyway, that’s right, the reason for the sudden cancellation of the English period in class 2-D is this.” He said, waving the red book in front of the three seniors. - "Smile" is not a verbal (speaking) action. 18. “Well, how could it be?” Sanada asked resisting the urge to tap his fingers on his shoulder showing his impatience. Correction: “Well, how could it be?” Sanada asked, resisting the urge to tap his fingers on his shoulder to show his impatience. 19. “Something pretty simple, at least for me.” The teacher answered. Correction: “Something pretty simple at least for me.” or “Something pretty simple...at least for me.” 20. “Oh, no, no. Actually the grammar this time seems fine! It’s a simple task. They only have to make four sentences using: ‘have’, ‘like’, ‘eat’ and ‘cheat’ and a free-made sentence. Kirihara-kun made a very good job this time.” Correction: “Oh, no, no. Actually, the grammar this time seems fine! It’s a simple task. They only have to make four sentences using: ‘have’, ‘like’, ‘eat’ and ‘cheat’ and a free-made sentence. Kirihara-kun did a very good job this time.” 21. “Oh, then what could be the problem Sensei?” Sanada asked again. Out of character as he may sound be, but he wanted the teacher to spit the reason out already so he could spend his time alone with his Yukimura again and punish his junior later. Correction: “Oh, then what could be the problem, Sensei?” Sanada asked again. Although he may seem out of character, he wanted the teacher to spit the reason out already so he could spend his time alone with his Yukimura again and punish his junior later. - It's really awkward to begin the sentence with "out of character as he may sound be." 22. “I believe it wasn’t us, Sensei. Sanada, Renji and I had another business yesterday so we were incapable of helping him. I guessed the same goes for Yagyuu and Jackal.” Yukimura answered smiling. Correction: “I believe it wasn’t us, Sensei. Sanada, Renji, and I had another business yesterday, so we were incapable of helping him. I guess the same goes for Yagyuu and Jackal.” Yukimura answered, smiling. 23. And Sanada frowned. Correction: Sanada frowned. - Refer back to Numbers 3 & 4 on what I said about conjunctions (like "and"). 24. But although, his knowledge of the International language is limited, the sentences written in the poor hand-writing made no sense for him considering it was done by his junior. Correction: Although his knowledge of the international language is limited, the sentences written in the poor handwriting made no sense for him; considering it was done by his junior. 25. The third sentence was truly confusing for him. How the hell can he eat his beautiful Yukimura? He was no cannibal! And behind ‘Akaya’? He wasn’t there when the junior did his homework. Correction: And behind ‘Akaya?’ 26. Hell he had never cheated on an exam, because it’s not the samurai’s way! Moreover with the annoying Atobe Keigo? He’s in Hyotei for Godsake! Correction: Hell, he had never cheated on an exam because it’s not the samurai’s way! Moreover with the annoying Atobe Keigo? He’s in Hyotei for God's sake! 27. He tried to ignore the first and forth one. Correction: He tried to ignore the first and the fourth one. 28. Anyway, on the last one. He tightened his fist, thinking of the best way to kill whoever father of the baby would be. Correction: Anyway...on the last one. He tightened his fist, thinking of the best way to kill whoever the father of the baby would be. 29. Yanagi silenced as he read all the sentences, slowly taking glances at his two best friends beside him. Correction: Yanagi was silent as he read all the sentences, slowly taking glances at his two best friends beside him. 30. Simply, because his stoic friend is too innocent, stupid and dense. Correction: Simply, it's because his stoic friend is too innocent, stupid and dense. 31. “Well, Yukimura-kun? I want to confirm the fact of all these sentences.” Mr. Ishida said smiling. Correction: “Well, Yukimura-kun? I want to confirm the fact of all these sentences,” Mr. Ishida said, smiling. 32. The said bluenette gave another smile, “Rest assure, Sensei. For I can promise you none of these are true.” Correction: The said bluenette gave another smile. “Rest assured, Sensei, for I can promise you that none of these are true.” More to be mentioned... |
