As a newer Bleach fan, I love how you kept all in character while giving them enough changes to show 20 years had passes. I spent every chapter wirh Gin wanting to save him. Wanting to sooth Grimmkitty (who will be perfect with those 2) and just generally cheering everyone on. I'm sorry to see that you haven't completed this; however I have completed very few of my own so can not say anything about that. Though I wonder if you have posted the rest elsewhere. Thank you for sharing this with us. It has been several days of enjoyment.

It's been some time since You updated your story and some time for me as well to read it for the first time. I don't know if You still write and just lost your interest in this story of if You are doing something entirely different but I just wanted to let You know your story was an amazing trip into world of magical imagination and to let You know I had searched for your story for a few days, only on the slight recollection few, maybe 5 chapters.

Cheers from Poland

p.s. If You have more to read or write I'd be delighted.

Wow. One of my friends recommended this to me. It's fantastic. I did not one-shot it like so many others, it's taken me about a week between work and my other interests (non-reading). However you are doing a wonderful job, and I hope you finish this story. It's got beautiful twists and turns!

katami_san! You have done an outstanding job with "A Shadow of What Was" and I can only hope to see you finish it and complete the sequel as well. I cannot tell you how many times I have read this story; it is absolutely one of my very favorites! Although I also like your "Royalty Series" as well. The way that you write Kisuke and Ichigo has me virtually bowing to you several times a day. I have taken an immense amount of pleasure in the different pairings that you have given us and am enthralled with Ryukken and Rukia. Byakuya and Ulquiorra have taken some getting used to, but they are written beautifully! And, of course, Renji and Uryuu are amazingly done as well. I am liking how cautious you are being with the "re-coming together" of Kisuke and Ichigo; it speaks of wanting them to stay together...*grins* as it should be! Grimm-chan, Ukitake and Shunsui are quite interesting together so I can't wait to see what happens there either. The whole story has captured me for over 2 years, actually I think it's more than 3, but I get so caught up with reading other things, and then I come back to this one here. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us, and I look forward to the time when we are given the next installment.

You know...It took me nearly a month and a half to finish Bleach. Watching it for hours on end - and at first I was sure I hated the series because it was so long. I loved the story but I just wanted to finish. it. Now I'm obsessed and have gone back to start it over, and watch all 366 episodes again. (And read the manga.) But I decided it would also be time to look into some pairings of my two favorite characters: Ichigo and Kisuke. And low and behold, what do I find? This fic.

I read this all in one sitting, though I know you fuss about those all-in-one-go types. ^_^ I couldn't help myself. Characters that I hated in the series I find myself coming to absolutely adore because of this fanfiction. One of my favorite characters in bleach however was Ulquiorra. I hate to admit it, but when he died (in the series) I cried. There was something so heart-breaking about that death. It hurt.

Thank you, from someone who has a lot of time on her hands due to an illness, for making my day/night brighter, and rekindling a love in me to write. I wrote a long time ago for different fanships, and somewhere along the way that love died(about right after I became ill). So thank you, from the bottom of my heart for this little piece of joy you've given me.

*wicked smirk* And now, I think I'll have to read the whole thing over again.

Please continue your writing - don't ever give it up. You're far, far too talented to ever stop.
