Hi there^^
Just wanted to wish everyone a very happy New Year!!!
(We could wish that reunion comes but... I'm not very optimistic
about that unfortunately *sigh*)

@Yuneyn
To be honest I thought that if Asano Atsuko was to do something,
she would have done it on September 7 2013... which
unfortunately was not the case. I want to believe but I highly
doubt we'll ever get more material.... oh, we can still pray to
Elyurias I guess... (｡ﾉω＼｡)
(I find the NO.6 series perfect as it is, but the lack of
closure between Shion and Nezumi hurts me a lot)

Yeah, I also think so. (;_;) I mean, we can still hope that
she's going to write a post-reunion sequel when they have their
first reunion in 2017, but I really doubt it. (Even though hope
is the last thing to die.)
Shion's birthday 2013 would have been a perfect moment to
publish something new, since it was the beginning of everything,
and I think people were starving to read more about them;
especially hardcore fans.
Or maybe also last year, since it was the year the manga came to
an end and No. 6 was still "fresh". (Sorry. XD I don't know how
to describe it better... )
But well, we still have new fans now, especially since the manga
is being published in other countries now, but the zenith of No.
6's glory is over. [s]I guess it was already over when I joined
the Tumblr fandom in December 2013... because when I joined it,
it was already very, very welcoming with old vs. new fandom
discussions on Tumblr. ^^° [/s]
But when they wait until 2017, a lot of "old" fans will have
moved on. Especially in Japan, where you have new great novels,
series and animes in abundance. It's easily forgotten.
Yeah, I also think that No. 6 is pretty perfect. But I also have
to say that "Beyond" had contra-productive effects. Inukashi's
chapter was quite nice, but especially Shion and Nezumi's
chapters where depressing. Shion is changing, and I think he's
already starting to get mentally exhausted... and Nezumi wants
Shion to be a person of his past, even though he's thinking
about him all the time. Beyond is very painful. Even more
painful than the original ending and the epilogue, in which
Shion seems to be fine. But I think he's not fine, when he's
already a little wreck after just 1 year in the RC.
Beyond is promting new questions... but it doesn't help to put
the story behind yourself with a good feeling. Because Nezumi is
doubting... and Shion is done. The "real" end was probably
better. ^^° It's sad, and it's a horrible open end... but it's
also inviting people to write their own reunions. This effect is
not to be underestimated, even though I'd also like to read an
official reunion. (And I'd love to see a grown up Nezumi in
Hinoki Kino's art style! >_<°)

But that chapter in Beyond with Nezumi meeting Shion's dad...
Doesn't that just seem like a setup for the next part of a
story? And the entire series ran from 2003 to 2011... Obviously
Atsuko Asano isn't on a tight schedule here. I just... refuse to
give up on the idea that there might be more in the future. Hope
does die last!
[s]Also I can't even begin to tell you what a relief it is that
we don't have "old fandom vs. new fandom" shit going on
anymore...[/s]

Yeah, it sounds like a setup to a new story - something like a
power game between Shion and Shion's crazy father. ^^°
You're right, I also don't think she's on a tight schedule, but
apart from 2010, there was a new book every year. And Beyond is
not called "Beyond Volume 1". u_u
So this would be the longest break so far and there's still no
sign that a new volume is coming out soon. (;_;)
But yeah, never stop to hope. They will reunite... and they will
have a great time together in a waaay better new city. >,<
[s]
Yeah, me too. ^^ It's so peaceful. XD [/s]

hi, sorry this doesn't have to do a whole lot with the topic at
hand, but I wasn't really sure where else to post this. Can
anyone link me to somewhere I can read Beyond?

The same place where you can also read the other novels ;D

........DUUUUUDE. What if we got a story years later from baby
Shionn's point of view growing up in the rebuilt city? And we
get his side of the story and it's a total mindfuck when we find
out all the details of things we cared about but as snippets of
information that he doesn't realize is important??

Yeah, that's really interesting! X3 Or better to say, that would
be really interesting. Someone should write a fanfiction about
Shionn. Ah, btw. I loved it to read about teenager Shionn in
[member=5]listenforthelove[/member]'s Christmas Carol
fanfiction. That was cool. Usually we just meet him in
fanfictions when he's about 4-5 years old.
Ah, god, my jaw is killing me right now. o_o° (They removed two
wisdom teeth on Monday.) If it's still like that tomorrow, I
think I can't work properly... can't talk like that, not for 8
hours. x.x But I don't want to go to the emergency service. It's
one of the hospitals which is so far away, I need an hour to get
there. And my boss will be super pissed when I don't come back
to work this weekend. ^^° I hope it's better tomorrow morning...
But somehow I don't think so, I get the feeling there's
something inflamed, the cheek is super hot. <_< Mah... that's so
annoying.
Well, I just played with audacity and my version of Kaze no
Requiem to distract myself a bit.
I pitched it higher and lower... god, I dunno, but I sound like
a pervert when I pitch my voice lower. XD And yet, it reminds me
a bit of a drunk, singing Shion. XD

(I hope you can see it...it's in my drafts, but that should work
unless I remove it. XD)
And the higher version is Tsukiyo. I thought about drawing a
picture where Nezumi and SHion are sleeping, and Tsukiyo is
singing Kaze no Requiem... and when they wake up, they're like.
"WTF o_o" XD Haha, maybe I'm doing something like that in the
near future. Maybe.

@Weisel: ahhh so many good fic ideas! But you're right, not a
lot of fic with Shionn as any older than a toddler and being his
own character.
ONE DAY REUNION WILL COME I WILL KEEP BELIEVING there. << (and
actually, I can't even choose between the reunion scenarios, so
I'm happy there's tons of fanfic and fanart to fulfill all of
them, haha.)
@Ahiku: ah man you really got bad luck there >_< fingers crossed
it won't bother you too long anymore!
Ooooh my gosh though those versions of Kaze no Requiem. The
first part really took me by surprise because yeah, that is easy
to mistake for Shion XD (not necessarily drunk though, you sing
it too well for drunk Shion) Didn't sound like you anymore so
that was kind of a 'wait, what' moment. Tsukiyo cracked me up
though, wooow. I mean it still sounds really good! But the
pitch! Mouse voice indeed, haha.
