Disclaimer: This is and this will be the last time that I respond to you Going Critical.
So now you want to change your tune and say that you only skimmed my story. Well if you only skimmed through the story you shouldn't have left a review based on just skimming because when you skim you miss things therefore missing important details which I find to funny since your name happens to be going critical.
If you only skimmed how can you pass judgement or make a full analysis on anything involving my story?
When a critic passes judgement they oan movie, book, fan fiction, etc. etc. etc. they pass judgement on the entire thing being judge, using points from the story to verify their good or bad opinions.
Your review on the other hand was just simply bashing and hate driven since you confused things that you wish or desire to be in my story instead of pointing out what was wrong with it or what I needed to fix with it.
Also I choose to make Kaori/Kanade similar for a reason and if you get that I'm using similarities between certain characters you should already know why. Well if you're a true Inuyasha fan you will know because it I think it is around episode 150ish where it explain how and how Kaede lost her eye. If do not know that then please refrain from commenting about my usage of duplicate similar characters.
I don't bother to memorize episodes either, but since I am writing a fanfiction that happens to be loosely inspired by the manga and original series I have to go back watch episode so I know what to change and what to keep. Also it isn't quite fair to take words of someone else's opinion/reviews and based that on someone story because it makes it seems that you cannot think for yourself and you already have a biased opinion on the story based on what 9 or 10 reviews because my story isn't well received on this site as other stories I have seen/read.
My story also has a lot of words because I ask my readers questions at times, leave author Notes, have disclaimers and I thank those who follow/favorite/leave reviews on my story. Again, you shouldn't leave reviews based on your skimming because you miss things.
I have read stories where the are mating ceremonies, etc. to make their mortal mates shared the same lifespan of there demon or demoness lover. I started to use that for Izayoi, but I couldn't because she is wife not his made so I made something else up to explain why she still hasn't aged despite it being centuries since she and Inu No Taisho first met. I also have yet to reveal that too.
Just because another author using a certain method that doesn't mean another author wants to use it too. I do read fanfiction, I do see what other authors do. Did I want to use what they're doing for my story? No because every story has a uniqueness to it even though there might be some similarities between certain authors and like I said before this is my story so I'm doing what I want with it even though I do take suggest that are mainly given to me on the other site this story is posted on.
You're still on this Kaede thing when I already told you why I don't use her and my story isn't even about her. Also it shouldn't even be a matter of discussion on why I chose not to use Kaede since you don't go write a letter to any anime creator and say ''You shouldn't have killed that character off I loved that character!''
because it's a vision they have for their pieces of literature.
I have things I am going to invent, but I'm introducing them later in my story because I didn't want it where Miroku, Sango, and Kirara weren't apart of the pack yet which is also my choice as the author. If I had a Co-writer then that would be something my co-writer and I would discuss which other.
Also speaking of Co-writer I would like to posted another story, but I don't wan to work on it alone so if someone wants to work on a story with me please PM, thank you.
The only way to make search you get what you really want out of a fanfiction is too actually kind of make up your because like you said every author isn't going to have everything you like or want in their stories because it's theirs. Like I said Kaede/Kaori/Kanade aren't my main characters so I'm not going to focus on them as much as I am the other characters despite them having relations to any of the main or semi main characters and or being mentors to Kagome and my OCs.
Also like I said before I do not use Kaede and I won't be doing a flashback of her younger years because she isn't my main focus and I do not know much about her as I do the other characters. It can be argued that I could create a storyline for her younger years, but what would that have to do with my story? The only time that she'll be young in my story is when I am showing how her sister got curse, how she lost her and the relations between Kikyo and Inuyasha/ Sesshomaru and Kazumi. Which is an episode in the Inuyasha Series I just don't remember which one.
I know there are some fanfics that give happy endings to both Kagome and Kikyo since I read a few, but I never liked Kikyo because to me she is a little too self-righteous for me so I plan I do not know about her or Kazumi's outcomings at the moment. As far as Kaede goes, you win some you lose some, but I would suggest that you stick to Kaede stories since that's what you want or create Kaede stories and stop bashing me and or others for not focusing more on her.
Okay, you keep typing what you feel like typing and people are going to respond to you how they feel like responding to you. I will say again that not many authors are tolerate when they receive bashing reviews when they already said no malice/hate/flaming reviews in their disclaimers. I am pretty sure a lot of authors have their reasons for that too and I kind said my reason when I posted my important message. So people who purposely ignore an author's wishes and leave spiteful reviews makes me wonder if they're quite happy with themselves.
You made me quite angrily when you said that I was somewhat ''lucky'' for you take interest in my story! Who say something like that to an author? It sounds to me like you are quite full of yourself. Who are you tell an author that they are ''lucky'' for you to read their story? Are you a publisher person or editor who is well desired, etc.? Even if you were that is no way to talk to an author who is trying to enhance their writing skills.
There is constructive criticism and there is bashing please learn the difference between the two because you saying you left a harsh review so that something might come of it or to boost an Author's confidence does not justify or make your actions right. When someone is bashed or repeatedly bash that does increase anything, in fact it decreases so that way of thinking to me is backwards and I wonder who ever came up with it should be ashamed of themselves.
That's like a child drawing on the wall instead of paper and you scold the child for drawing on the wall, but yet you go and do it too. It's downright stupid thing to do, don't you think?
Actually I rather much like my praises and that does better than bashing because bashing me doesn't work, it may work for certain people and I am not certain people so that was your mistake in thinking that your ''method'' works for everyone.
Another example, some time outs work/standing in a corner for children while other respond better to having the things taking or being grounded. So to make it seem like everyone is the same is also a stupid thing to do too, not to call you or say that you are stupid or anything just making a point.
I will not be using any of your suggestions, even though you really didn't give me any. I am choosing to ignore your bashing reviews. Your reviews didn't clarify anything so I do not know what you meant by that.
Also how there two alternate forms of everything? The only parallels I have used are Kikyo/Kazumi, Kaede/Kaori and Inuyasha and Sesshomaru are partially parallelling each other and possibly Kagero and Kagome could be argued to be parallels of each other.
I was going to use alternate universe meet for this other story I have been working but I'm not doing that story now and thanks for you review and enjoy the rest of your evening.
