veeeeeery good story. I would love to read more :)

This is one story I enjoy reading many times over again, like just now.  You've done such a great job with your original characters, and the plot is intriguing.  Please update soon!  

I am loving this so far and I cannot wait to read another chapter! I hope that you decide to update this soon because I love the way you have writter Kagome and the politics of the court.

This is amazing!  I love everything about this story.  I really hope you continue this one soon!

Ah, catching up on he story again!  I saw that a chapter had been uploaded so I read the entire story again from the beginning.  It's a pleasure to read and reread!  Hope you will update again soon!

I just finally got to read the latest chapter.  So good.  You are a really talented writer.  Your characters are just awesome.  I wish that they're really part of the original Inuyasha lexicon. Thanks again for writing and I hope there's another update soon.  

Very late, keep it coming.

Looking good. please continue

awesome!!!!!!!!!

~~I read this earlier but I had to go to work so I couldn't review! But I came back and read it again! ^__^ I can't even tell you how much I love Kagome's interactions with all of these other males! Her calmness about it all is SUCH a nice change! I really do love this fic! More soon please!! :D

sorry update hehe.

i really love this story thanks for the updare.

i love it hope you update soon :)

Keep it coming, Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

This just gets better and better.  And now I love your Nori-sama almost as much as Sess mom.  Seriously, the little details in your writing from describing a character or scenery to explaining little rituals is quite astounding.  Well done.  Can you write another chapter now please?  Can't wait for the next update!

Your story is really good.  The plot is nice and twisty, sneaking glances out but not trying to shove itself down a reader's throat.  A good change of pace =D  Your grammar is good, your spelling, and I haven't seen any overlooked typos either.  Good work to you and your beta if you have/needed one.  I can't remember if you mentioned one in chapter one and I'm too lazy to look back XD

I really like the characters you've introduced around Kagome, the fox the most, followed by Kuroren.  My feelings for the fox are probably because he's had the most face time, and because I've always been a fox fan XD.  As of yet I don't really feel like I know the dragon, so it might be fun to have a little bit more info on him come to light. 

You've painted the setting like a master.  I've never done real research on the history of Japan, but it all sounds right >>.  It's a real time and place, and if it's wrong you've managed to still make it believable.  I enjoy how you don't focus on just one sense, like sight or sound.  You include scent and touch, which are so often left out.  Since this is a story with dogs in it I'm really glad you didn't make that oversight =].

The portrayal of Sesshomaru seems spot on, so kudos there.  I, personally, have a hell of a time getting his character type to work for me.  I’m really, REALLY glad you’re not making him secretly harboring feelings of love for Kagome and hiding it is the reason for his attitude.  Really glad.  I can’t stress that enough XD

Hmmmm.. I could probably go on for many more paragraphs about the parts of your story I like, but there’s something I should have left a review for on chapter one that needs told.
Chapter one was very hard to read ><  It confused me.  You jumped around between characters and you used terms and phrases that I, with my lack of Japanese speaking skills, and reading, didn’t know.  Might want to add more words to the dictionary at the beginning.  The terms are easier in the following chapters, but there were a lot in chapter one. 
That, plus the way you jumped, kind of gave chapter one an overall sense of being rushed.  You crammed the setting for the entire story into that opener, and it might have flowed easier if you’d made it two chapters or if you took some of that info and made them into flashbacks or just vague mentions here and there.

Kay, that’s off my chest and I feel really bad about it, but you mentioned you like feedback so this is my feedback for all of your chapters so far.  I really hope I get to read many more >>

Oh, one last question.  I got a little confused on one other point.  Sesshomaru mentions Inuyasha and Rin reaching sexual maturity, did you mean to imply that they were a couple?  If so, that isn’t really very clear. 

Eeep this is long.  Oops ><

Alright, so I've already read Bone Eater which I absoultly love and now I've gotten around to reading this and I have to say I absoultly love this story by you as well! There are some places through the story were the wording leaves me a bit confused, but overall this is a great story and I can't wait for more chapters ^^
