Just read chapter 1. Now I absolutely see why this story is highly regarded. I absolutely love it!! While I was reading it, I couldn't help but play some of the Parasite Eve game OST tracks lol. This cyberpunk world goes great with that OST imo. Well I won't take long b/c I'm excited to read the next chapter. Matta ne!!

I have not read a story that was so entrancing and dynamic and original since reading Newromancer, Pollen, and similar novels. The complexity in the narrative in the early stages in particular was especially brilliant.
I think world building is important, but when combined with great characterization and stretching teh boundaries of Setsuna, for instance and supporting it with a credible subplot was very good.
Endymion's portrayal also was brillliant and the tension, suspense and intrigue you maintained successfully throughout.
Dark and light I see as paradox in its raw form, and you conveyed that nebulous sense of symmetry in this story.
Tech side: I acknowledge some minor spellling and grammar, but this is inconsequential in the face of such a powerful and complex story. But, I think a proofing would be a worthy task to reward your wonderful muse.
But in all, the ending was a perfect touch and to cover the span of the story in full here would never do it justice.
If people would like to know how to world build, create a set of interactive characters that are convincing, lovable, or capable of eliciting our contempt and even awe or fear, then we can look no further than My Lord Chaos.
Thank you.

WOW. This story is intense. I'll admit that I had some reservations when I first started reading this, but as I continued they completely disappeared. They way you describe this different, darker Crystal Tokyo was amazing - I could completely see it in my mind's eye. You also raise some interesting points on cloning in the distant future. You have a gift and I hope to see some more of your work in the future.

This was amazing. It's a scary thought of people trying to play "God". I loved how explored different issues like of course the whole idea of cloning, what is meant to be human and real. I loved "Rei" in this story and overall I enjoyed it. Keep writing, you have a serious gift.

That was amazing.
It took me the better part of two weeks to complete, comsumed me at work and home (my significant other is a little peeved) but it was definitely worth it.
That story was breathtaking. The way that it was told, the directions it took, how it panned out..all fit perfectly into a little puzzle created for *this* future of Crystal Tokyo.
I am impressed with the happy ending that you still managed to find and even more astounded at the answer that you came up with for Chibi-Usa's whereabouts.
There were no unanswered questions at the end, no feelings of an unfinished story, nothing that left me feeling like this tale had anything but hope left to it.
Extraordinary masterpiece. ^.^
