Chapter 542: Author Note + A little Rant
Chapter 542: Author Note + A little Rant
Well, first of all: HOLY SHIT, I ACTUALLY FINISHED THIS!!!
I mean, don’t get me wrong, I planned to finish my fic from the start, but I’m pretty sure that most writers on this site intend to finish their story when they start. Considering how many stories rest in eternal Hiatus and how few have a proper ending, it’s relatively clear that that rarely happens.
Anyway, what will happen now?
First of all, I’ll take a month-long break. I have my holidays all planned and need some general relaxation time. I will probably post a few of the planned omake/side story chapters that will give a glimpse into what happens after the war. Additionally, I will use the time to get a general outline of what I will do with my next story:
Yuna in Bleach (name pending)
I already have a rough outline of how I want to do this, but I won’t spoil anything for now.
However, I plan to change things up a little with my new fic. First of all, I plan to actually have advanced chapters all the time, not like how it was with this fic where I only occasionally had a few of them. Additionally, writing a chapter every day is too stressful, so I’ll be changing to a one-per-week shedule of longer chapters. All in all, you will get about the same word count a week.
Next, a little message for all those lovely people out there that “threaten” to drop the story every time something happens that they don’t like: Go f*ck yourself.
Seriously, what is wrong with some people? The most prominent example in my story is the introduction of another reincarnator: Hisoka. People were 100k words in by that point. Imagen stopping reading a story you invested multiple hours into because a single character that wasn’t even mentioned up until this point and has a single trait you don’t like: being reincarnated. Laughable.
Anyway, let’s go to the next point, which is pretty much webnovel com exclusive: the trolls. Usually, I wouldn’t even mention them, since I know that attention is the only thing that gets them hard, but I doubt someone who wants to “troll” me would read all the way through my story, so here we go. Most of you probably didn’t even notice too much since comments using offensive words get auto-deleted to some degree, but I still can see their comments in my inbox, which is a great system… Anyway, having your inbox cluttered with garbage is rather annoying. I once even had a guy that would leave 2-3 negative comments per chapter up to like chapter 70 xD Imagine waking up in the morning with around 200 stupid comments in your inbox. Anyway, since I ignored all of their posts, they finally decided to give up. Sorry, no orgasm for you. Oh yeah, on a side note, getting someone angry is not trolling; it’s called being a dick.
Now, I will proceed to get myself canceled: I don’t understand why people look at relationship issues between young teens so critically… yeah, I just said that.
Anyway, since I can already hear the police sirens in the background, I might as well explain what I meant by that before they put me behind bars. Readers don’t even twitch their eyebrows when a seven-year-old is sent to a battlefield to slaughter other shinobi. I don’t remember exactly which fic it was, but there was basically a scene in it where a nine-year-old Kushina kissed the seven-year-old mc, and everyone was going full hurr-durr. Like, calm down, people; it’s not like they were h*lding h*ands.
Alright, time for some shoutouts. I will obviously miss like 90% of the people I wanted to give a shoutout to, but here we go anyway.
First of all, shoutouts to all of my patreons. Your donations helped me fuel my alco… *cough* made it possible for me to get a few things I wouldn’t have usually gotten. (Including the awesome book cover)
Anyway, here we go: Sleepymoonfox, CyberCrisis, Shadeymankey, Axel Gerard, Xhaustedhero, Killian Merphy, Glitchamble, Oscar Servin, Jonathan Lutz, Fish, Name not found, Hugo Herly, Libery, Eddy Yeung, Petropan, Chris Rose, Christian Jeffress, Timotheus, Denis-dono, Guilherme Castro, Corrupt Zain, Jeffrey Forsgren, RagniDrakula, Danyial Halim, Rene, Richard Darden, Lil Mickey D, Jonah Bönisch, talos, akir aiman, Jacob hipes, ThatGuy, Sheranor, Eakamdeep Brar, Dane Bailey, Chad Jarvis, James1Gal, Luke, Other, CF zagi, Vivienne Sullivan, Soulsmsher, Judd, Demi god, EvilSmirk, TheForgottenKing, Sarvyn, Samuel Pawluck, John O’Meara, Scarletmenace, Dan, Jose Cintron, Kevin Choi, WeirdWhirl, Dante Brady, Tyler H, Andrew Ha, Raken, Quellec, Kuroko, Legorate, Blackelements, Anton Kozlov, tyrell bentley, GAYDOLFGLITTER, Darien Fields, Shiro Kuro, Efgbog, Joshua smith, RockGeek, Kevin Kordich, Wolf, DeathClan1980, useless person, chandru selvakumar, Wesley Tebbens, Bjrn Håkon Thorvaldsen, Shira_Ori, Mythicalchase.
Then, shoutouts to all those people who pointed out errors for me to fix with a special mention of ARFitS, who pointed out by far the most:
Kiyuta, LazyFlesh, Pyrothium, Tunefullcobra, Arisu, CoolHunter, and many more. Sorry, I won’t comb through all my chapters to see who else posted corrections.
Additionally, I would like to mention that the webnovel system where paragraph comments get deleted even if only a single letter of the paragraph is changed can go f*ck itself as well.
Now, some shoutouts to all of you for leaving positive comments or just a simple “Thank you for the chapter” every chapter. The surprising amount of positivity I got while writing this was insane, and although I think I did a good job writing this story as funny as possible, some cheeky comments certainly made things even funnier. Here are some people I remembered the most vividly, hoping that no one felt left out because of my shitty memory: Einstein3, Shira_ori/yurei, HKS_512, IRrebel, Basically_God, Xuan-Wu, and many, many more. Sorry again if I missed a lot of vivid comment posters, but I have trouble remembering the name of someone who I have been closely working with for six months, so cut me some slack here.
And finally, shoutouts to this whole community which is surprisingly not as toxic as I expected it to be.
Anyway, thanks for reading and see you next time.
