At least the reviewers know the score!

EDIT: 3 months = 10,000 posts!

Volume 1 Chapter 7 part 2, made a lot of changes.

After a fight like that, I think that there are definitely still some things that need to be changed in order to get the perfect balance of the immediate mood, later implications and character-interaction consistency.

Spoiler:
Wouldn't you think that she'd be a little concerned about what he might do to the universe after that fight, given that she knows his power?

Also, having Haruki scare her that much is a bad idea, I think.

My immediate solution to both those problems would be to change pretty much every major edit and keep it closer to the original.

However, I know that won't go.

Honestly, on your first point, I was thinking the exact same thing while I was reading your edit and Bliss's. From the way it was written, as if Kyonko was finally letting out all her anger and frustration at once, it didn't seem appropriate for it to be weak-hearted shouting match. And I even think that Kyonko summing up the situation like Kyon did doesn't go very well with the fact that they had such a huge fight. So to cut it short, what I'm trying to say is that if they're going to have a fight, I think it should be a full-blown fight or not have one at all.

If you're referring to my last edit concerning the subtlety of the situation, it's still kind of the same idea. If you want Kyonko to regret having fought with Haruki like that that I don't think it should be a side thought like it was in the original edit but full-out lamentation. Not-at-all or all-the-way.

As for Haruki's anger, it seemed like the only appropriate response from him after such humiliation. The original edit seemed like he kinda gave up too easy, bent backwards for Kyonko in contradiction to his personality. And I was very hesitant in making Haruki a physically intimidating person, but I thought that I didn't do it too much...

Guess not.

But I still think it's important to show an extremely angry response from Haruki after that moment.

@shaoron: Never thought I'd get rickroll'd in text format... LOL. And yes, surprisingly, I know half the lyrics to that song... really, what does that say about my browsing habits?
Spoiler for ...:

We seem to have returned to some form of a topic now.

Why don't we cram everything in there at once? Then everybody's happy!!

We've always tried it before, but... here I know that won't work.

Right then, I'll use your edit.

You forgot to genderswap a pronoun. (Note: I skipped ahead to that part of the chapter, and that was the only error that caught my eye, so this is only a proof for that one bit of sentence.)

Given that Asakura actally gets to stab Kyon this time, we might want to change to a knife for this chapter. Stab someone with a katana, and I imagine you practically disembowel them in one go; they're rather large.

A shoto will do, I guess. And Asakura doesn't have to stab it in completely, like a glance will do too.

Actually, I had planned to him to actually stab her with the katana, and disembowelment would indeed ensue.

It's not like Yuuki can't heal her, in any case... >_>

That sort of thing would send her into instant shock though, wouldn't it? Better to have a smaller wound.

Oooh! I have an idea for a replacement name for "John Smith"... how about "Mary Sue"?

Mostly to keep Asakura's weapon the same and to get a reaction out of BM, who's hiding in the bushes.

It's not like he's going to be effective against, you know, an alien, but...

I really think just being stabbed would send you into instant shock...

Kyon quickly went unconscious at that point in the original anyway.

yay.. we're back to the same topic again....
NO!
Asakura wanted to make Kyonko feel pain before actually killing her. A light stab is all that's needed. no need to change the weapon. remember, he slowly pulled the blade out.. so no major disembowelment...

besides.. Asakura is obviously compensating for something...
