I'd like to point out a scientific mistake I've seen many, many times over.

DNA is a set of instructions for how the body develops.  If it's already
developed, changing it won't result in more than a person with the wrong sex
chromosomes and maybe some hormone problems.  Someone whose genes were changed
to the opposite sex won't become the opposite sex, for the same reason that
if you lose a leg you won't grow another one even though your DNA codes for
having two legs.


Who cares?  When you mix Washuu with a magical Jusenkyou curse,
real-world science is hardly relevant.

Besides, this fic was hilarious!  The purpose of this fic was to make us
laugh, not create viable science in a world where the normal laws of the
universe don't apply anyway.  And in that, I think the fic succeeded
admirably.  It's been a while since I read a fic that made me laugh out
loud.

Chris, you are a sick, sick man.  ^_^  Great job.
