Its not to long Kenta. People just love to be looky-loos and not say much. I am reading it but it will take me some time because I am only on between job hunting and I have to share an internet cord with an Xbox live/PSN addict who never asks for the cord and just takes it even if your using it.

 

Once I am done i'll post my comments. I'm hoping to read most of it Sunday so I shouldnt take long to finish.

Ooh, pretty awesome concept-wise. Can't quite figure out the protagonist, though. Is he Harry Potter-ish, or Nanoha-ish, or just a loser...?

 

Anyway, the trouble with first-person is that it means the whole story has to be told in the protagonist's voice. The very first paragraph has this problem:

 

The world was angered.

Lightning crackled across the skies, flashing out the wasteland that was my domination. Rain battered my chamber’s drenched windows, pouring down as through wet, invisible hands were sliding down it.

Me, as I read: Neat, an epic. Last sentence structure is kinda awkward, but...

Now, if there was a computer I could surf the net on, or something entertaining like that, it would be good in a rainy day like this. Unfortunately, there is nothing like that in this castle, which is pretty awkward as I’m the third in command government official of the Dark Lord Empire that covers 40% or more of the world, someone who should have enough riches to buy a single bloody Computer.

lolwut

I thought this was an epic!

 

That sort of alternation between Lemony snark and epic description shows up throughout the whole rest of the story, and the transitions are really awkward.

 

Incidentally, the above has another pervading problem that shows up throughout the story — tangential, run-on sentences. Specificially, that last sentence.

Unfortunately' date=' there is nothing like that in this castle, which is pretty awkward as I’m the third in command government official of the Dark Lord Empire that covers 40% or more of the world, someone who should have enough riches to buy a single bloody Computer.[/quote']

There's some redundant words in there I took out, but you get the idea.

 

But it reminds me a bit of a Magical Girlfriend series, except it's Magical Evil Emperor's Left Hand instead of Magical Girlfriend. Kenta's much, much more unlucky, too.

 

But where does Kenta live? The dichotomy between the name Kenta and Das Pleto doesn't really make sense if they all live in the same empire.

 

Oh, and plz rview mah fic plz. pretty plz?

Thx for the long comment ^^

 

Well, I'm Jap, my grammer and order of words isn't something I can call good (though I do try my best). Sorry on that one....

 

As for the name Kenta, he lives in a different place from Das Pleto. The Republic was invaded by the Empire, and Kenta's from the Republic. Both nations are resemblants of the current ones, something coming later.

 

Anyways, I'll look.
