One Down, 16 to go

Whoo boy, I think senkaimon  's seen more traffic the past 12 hours than it has in it's entire conception :D (That's a good thing!) And all the fics for this round really, really rock. If you're into Chad/Ichigo or just like slash, you may want to take a gander here. It was nice to have good fics to read after...the last post :/ XD

I really enjoy doing this, and I've gotten a better apprication for Chad as a character. It's difficult to write for quiet characters, especially one who, now that I've noticed, hasn't been particularly well-developed beyond being another Ichigo cheerleader. Not too long ago at bleachness , debbbiechan remakred how he's been comapred as this show's Krillin for years. I don't watch DBZ and don't have a clue who the character is, but if that's code for "Sidekick who doesn't get showcased nearly as much as he should have," it's damn time Kubo remedied that. And then get to doing something about Isshin's backstory plz, kthnxbye

I'm even more glad that thus far no one's flaked out at the last minute (the only person who stepped down having RL health issues), which means I won't have to eliminate too many pairings off my list...so more fun and goodies in the later rounds *Evil grins*
