(I sat out of the MitC discussion because of time constraints and because much of what I had to say, I had already said in the thread.) Not terribly much to add to what's already been said - I'd put this in the category of "KS Fanfic that probably should have been divorced from KS entirely." That's ...

Ohhh, this is nothing, my friend. This thread is still not even to the point of actual name-calling. I'd say we're keeping it more civil than the vast majority of online communities would do. Pat yourself on the back, everyone! I know it's not bad yet, but my experience in coprometeorology indicate...

Well, to everyone here, let's try to calm down a little, before this turns into a Category 5 shitstorm. And, though it may be a bit presumptuous since they agree with me, I'd kindly request you (that means everyone) be a tiny bit more respectful to Kutagh and metalangel. It is my understanding that ...

I guess I'm gonna need to read each of these sequences to really get a sense of all that's going on. It's reasonably well-written and all, but the narrative (particularly this sequence from Shizune's perspective) strikes me as... wrong. Specifically, I find Shizune's thoughts and actions to be quite...

I may have to work on my reading for comprehension :) , but I thought I saw this issue discussed, but not this take on it. That Shizune may not have been born deaf, but became deaf around around age six, either through disease or accident. Everybody had been debating about the twelve years of silen...

There's something that Jigoro says during the vacation visit that's been bugging me. For twelve years, Shizune did not even talk to me, even though I had hired multiple tutors and interpreters of all sorts to try to get her to become normal. First weird thing: There's an implication here that at on...

Didn't it say Takeshi was missing an eye? Now that you mention it, yeah, I do remember the whole pirate eyepatch thing. That's what you get for reading a chapter, typing a response, then chasing after a 9-month-old that likes to pull books off of bookshelves. Rinse and repeat. Except no rinsing. He...

There have been countless pixels spilled on this subject, here as well as elsewhere. I'd recommend you make use of the search feature to see some of the other discussions, where you're likely to find more than enough hours worth of debate discussing the pros and cons. And, as far as that goes, aroun...

As promised, let's look at this with fresh eyes, one chapter at a time: Not going to bother with noting grammatical mistakes and awkward wordings, since this is years old and that kind of stuff is beside the point for the intent of this book club. General This was one of the first fics I read, when ...

...and here I was thinking that a thread entitled "Yamaku Book Club" in the "Fanfic" section was a fanfic about the Yamaku Book club. As such, I had filed it away on my list of "To read... eventually." Then someone asked my opinion, so I took a look, and - surprise, surprise - Akio, Lezard, Suzu, an...

It was deliberately left ambiguous. The question is asked, but no answer is given. Why? Because it's not important to the plot. Shizune didn't need to know what was being said to react the way she did. The ambiguity is part of the point. Besides, lip reading isn't easy or reliable. It's a helpful ai...

Now, I don't want to pile on with all the negativity, but there's some important context here that you should be aware of. There have been many, many, MANY attempts to write Pseudo-routes. There's some disagreement on what exactly constitutes a pseudo route, but, to date, there are precisely TWO com...

It's a solid piece. It does a very good job at hinting toward a larger and broader context, leaving all sorts of implications. I also get the sense that this isn't really a letter from Hisao to Iwanako. A lot of people will be happy to see that you've returned, even if it's only for a short snippet ...

First of all she was sent there as part of a sign language program to help Shizune. That would be an excellent point, if it were supported by anything in the test. It says no such thing (and conflicts quite a bit with the fact that a significant portion of the student body is deaf). Secondly it is ...
