THE TATTOO
A Ranma 1/2 fanfiction by Ukyou Kuonji

A VERY good fic. It went in a direction COMPLETELY different than what I
might have expected. Such a surprise I enjoy very much.

And that's it, I think.  Part of me wants to explain it (maybe w/some 
other anime character laughing as to how they're controlling my mind), 
another part says to leave it magical.  I'm not completely positive 
about the ending, but for a single day's work, hey... it's not bad.

My opinion... leave the ending as is. It has a certain mystique that would
be lost if the magic were explained.

Of course, that kind of magic doesn't seem to be too common to Ranma 1/2.
That kind of thing seems more Video Girl AI or OMGish. You're call. ^_^


As for the lemon/lime tag. I *liked* the fact that the lemon scene snuck up
on me. I think you should put the lemon tag JUST in front of the scene that
carries it instead of in the title. That way, the reader will know what's
coming up... but since he's been enticed to read this far, he/she might
continue to read anyway.

I'm not particularly thrilled with the title either, and I've had 
others go through my head: "The Illustrated Chef," (with apologies to 
Ray Bradbury), "Picture of Him," "Under My Skin," "Drawn From Life," 
that sort of thing.  But nothing's really seemed... right; at least, 
not so far.  And I've got so *many* good titles that I don't have a 
story for, too!  Anyway, if a suggestion comes to mind, please let me 
know.  Thanks for reading!

Funny... I was looking through your titles, and prefer Tattoo. Why? 
Because it gives NOTHING away about the story. Yet, it was so different
compared to the usual Ranma titles that I couldn't help but read it. I've
never heard of a Ranma character with a Tattoo.

I really liked it. Good one.
