A fun read. Doesn't suffer from poor spelling/grammar. Although not the most unique plot, it's interesting in how it plays out. 3.5/5 because while decent, it's not quite good enough for a 4.

 

Nothing particularly unique about it. I found it a nice enough read, but its more guilty pleasure than anything else.

3/5

 

Been keeping updated on this story and I really liked it at first. I'd love to give it 4/5 but after the last few chapters it's becoming decidedly average.

3/5

 

What? This isn't average, it's terrible. The author needs a beta, badly. The first two chapters are fine, nothing spectacular, but not bad either. From then on, the mistakes start on piling on. Chapter 3 alone has 'is' instead of 'it', 'knelling' instead of 'kneeling', 'of' instead of 'off' and so on. Not to mention the severe lack of commas, run-on sentences, stilted dialogue, awful word choice and misuse of words.

That's the third chapter alone, and the following chapters make it into a tradition. It's like the author furiously edited and proof-read the first two chapters, got some reviews and then decided that he might as well pump out 40 000 words in two months to get even more reviews. With no editing.

1.5/5 - because the plot actually moves somewhere.

 

Grammar: Horrible.

Characterization: Fluctuates. Some characters are decently handled, like many of the Fraccions, and some are mediocre, like Naruto.

Plot: Surprisingly well thought out.

Prose: Boring, but serviceable.

Rating: 3/5

It's fairly average as far as these sorts of crosses go, but it does have a much more coherent thought process behind it than the vast majority of the genre.
