This is the third Sailor Moon fic I have ever read, though I havn't really seen the show. This is definately the happiest (I wouldn't call 'I'm here to help' or 'Sailor Nothing' exactly uplifting). I do read a lot, though, and this is really up there. I devoured it. So excellent.

Comment/Review:
Wow. i tend to read yaoi because there's more of it and it tends to be better than yuri because yuri tends to be written by boys... they write out their lesbian fantasies. Gah! Anyway, i felt the need to read some yuri, and went to see if i could find my favourite pairing (MakerxHealer), but it's so very rare to find it. Anyway, i bumped into this and... read it all the way through. i wanted to punch several characters at several points, but i thoroughly enjoyed it, from start to finish. It was a bit strange how you bounced around seasons with your usage of attacks since they only tend to use one attack per season, but it didn't take away from the enjoyment. The Setsuna+Rei bit was a little... strange. It was nothing that i couldn't handle, it just kind of appeared from no where, i thought. i'm done babbling, good job!

This story really could have used more character development. We did get inside of Rei's head. We saw the pain she was going through and we sypathized with her. We CARED about her. Problem was she was the ONLY character we cared about. None of the other Senshi got the amount of attention that Rei got. But that's ok since this is Rei's saga. She is the main focus. She carries us through the story. But this was also a love story. Usagi was a big part, and it would have been nice if she had been fleshed out as a character as much as Rei. As it was I didn't care that much if Rei and Usagi's relationship worked. I only cared about Rei and what would make her happy. If that meant she ended up with Usagi, or Minako, or Setsuna it didn't matter. (Actually I was rooting for a Rei/Setsuna pairing since you had shown us how lonely Setsuna was and how she longed for a companion. I CARED about her as a character.) I realize you might have done this on purpose, leaving Usagi as a blank slate so we wouldn't know who she would eventually choose. If so, then that was a mistake. Never sacrifice character development. Let us see what the person is thinking or feeling. Make her indecision part of her character so we can sympathize with her. This story was style over substance, and that's fine. Style is good. Style is entertaining. Like everyone else said this was a really 'fun' read. I just would have liked to have had a little more depth added to the story as well.

Okay, I must apologize for my prior review. I don't normally leave such an unintelligent response. Here goes for the REAL review. Honestly, I have never read a better fanfic. EVER! This is, by far, one of the best STORIES I have ever read! Congratulations to Kirika on a most excellently written work! I am not an emotional person, by any means...Well...formerly sadistic. While we're watching a history movie with bloody things, and people are usually being grossed out, I am laughing hysterically. But, by no means am I emotional. However, I could not help but be moved by some of what was written in here. I laughed, I almost cried, and yes, I was a bit embarassed when my friends found out that I was reading a Sailor Moon fic...I'm normally a violent-type otaku. ^.^;; I, however, was left speechless at the ability of Kirika. I can't wait for part 2 to come out! I found myself waiting to get home from school each day just to read more of this story! And...sadly I got kicked off the computer several times because of it. T.T Anyway, this is indeed the most brilliantly written fanfic I have ever had the priviledge to read, and dare someone to try to write a better one!

Whoa!!! It's been such a long time since I read such an awesome fic! I must admit I was somehow disappointed that you resurrected Rei, but finally, I like the happy end too, especially if you really plan on writing a sequel ^^ Now I shall check your Noir fics! (glances at clock, reading 0100am) oups! or maybe sleep... Oh f**k, who cares about work anyway...

Mother of God, best ficcy ever. I originally read it back when it was on FF.net, and you had just posted chapter 57 A Moment in Time when they removed all the NC17 fics. I couldn't believe it, and I thought I woudn't be able to find out how it ended! That would be really disappointing after spending several hours reading it! I read it three times before FF took it away, after that I started looking for wherever you moved it to. I couldn't find you anywhere else on the internet and gave up. A year later I stumbled across ReiandUsagi.net and found you! Thank God! I finally got to read the ending! This fic made me cry and laugh, and I loved every minute of it and I can't think of a better way to spend hours looking at a computer screen. You have a God given gift and I'm glad you decided to use it. I'm really lookin forward to reading more of your fics! Keep it up Kirika!

This story was very well done and I hope the author will write a sequel that is equally good. You used suspense very well and the fact that the "moment" actually meant Rei would be hurt instead of Usagi was a clever surprise. While for an online story these chapters are very long, they would be suited perfectly to a physical book. Congratulations once again and good luck! P.S. My web clan has decided to designate this piece as one of the top ten out of five hundred online stories we have reviewed.

Great fanfic. One of the best I've read since gawd knows when. I especially liked the way Haruka and Michiru were coupled. Reading this story kinds of gives you a different view of this anime itself. Took me six hours throughout the night to finish this. This is good, cause I never liked Mamoru. DIE Mamoru!! Muahahahaha!!!

hi i unsually do not like these kind of stories. because i liked usagi and mamour together, their are may favortie couple. but you have wrttien much better type of story then most have.and heaven be praise ,you did not follow the overused and overabuse plot by turned mamour into a wife beater and rapist,as so many wrtiers have done with these types of stories. it is okay to read thank you for bashing mamour in this story sandra

I started reading this fanfic basically after it was already fully posted here on mediaminer and I have to say it has still taken me almost a full year to read it. :P My best friend read this fic, and told me I had to read it too, and I'll admit I do not usually read Sailor Moon, or even shoujo ai fanfics, but this one was extremely well written. You did a great job and the story was amazing. I loved the action, the angst, and all the other good stuff. I hope to read more of your works so keep writing, you are awesome!

Wow. Just wow. I really thought I'd never get to finish reading this after FF.net removed it and I couldn't access MM.org. But, as you can see I finally got through it all. R/U is my fave pairing, although any shoujo-ai pair is fine :P "OMG! You killed Rei - no, the blade was broken" Great Noir reference :D "OMG! You killed Rei - for real this time" Such a great alternation between happy and sad bits made for a great ending. I can't wait for the sequel. K.o.R PS. Took me a week to read this. Not a second was wasted :D
