    Title: The Poltergeist Report Card
    Author: Dragon XD
    Rating: M
    Type: Yu Yu Hakusho/Rosario+Vampire Crossover
    Genre: Supernatural/Humor
    Pairing: Kurama-centric (No-Pairing)
    Summary: He survived the Dark Tournament, battled in the Demon Tournament, and saved the Human Realm about half a dozen times. Now Kurama must face his greatest challenge...going to high school.

    It's a bit short now, in its beginning stages, but it looks like it'll have promise. It's not as focused on Humor as Big Human on Campus, but there is some. It does require some knowledge of both anime. I myself feel it's a bit too soon to rate, but a of now, I'd give 3.5/5 or 4/5

    I've read it. As R+V crossovers go, this one is pretty good. It's a decent story, but the two universes really don't mix together well. Still, the author does try his best to make sense of it all, though the result isn't anything to shout about. 3/5, I'd put it in the Almost Recommended category.

    Technically, I'd say the writing is average. Plotwise, this story is shit. The dialogue isn't funny, the constant breaking of the fourth wall is annoying, and the intentional calling on flashbacks breaks what little flow that this story has.

    2/5 and that's being generous.

    Guilty pleasure, not a particularly great one. If not for the fact that it's Yu Yu Hakusho - a show I really liked as a kid - and Rosario Vampire, I would have stopped reading within the first chapter.

    3/5
