Overall, this is written well with no glaring mistakes or typos. It’s descriptive enough to make dialogues interesting, and the humor of the characters is a nice touch. The physical settings don’t need a lot of description because it’s basically just a school. The characters aren’t delved into completely, but that’s probably part of the mystery as well as probably due to only having 30 (where I stopped) chapters to introduce many characters. Ryu, Noriko, Christina, Kyoko, Yukio, Ulf. These seem to be the main group plus maybe principal Nakagawa. This isn’t that many characters, but all the name variations made it rather confusing, and it took a while to get used to and sort out who was who. The little clues can be easily missed as this isn’t ****** leisurely reading. I had to focus to catch the hints and piece together the plot and connection of the two worlds. I can imagine without careful reading and digesting, the story could be rather confusing (seeing the comments) due to the mysteriousness of it. My only real suggestion, or just idea rather, is to put the 2040 chaps into one or even cut some of them. A few of them in the middle of the 2016 chapters didn’t shed much light or add to much (or maybe I missed out on the importance completely) to the plot. At least, I didn’t see how they flowed/connected to the 2016 events. It just felt like they cut in the middle of the story events in 2016 where most of my understanding was pieced together from the early happenings in the 2040 or transit station events. I love a good mystery, and this certainly has me guessing and theorizing. I’m personally not all that wild on the school theme since I’ve seen plenty of those variations. Good work, keep at it! (:

No idea why the world ‘******’ leisurely reading got asterisked out as if it was a curse word??!!!

I've seen that happen myself. Whenever I abbreviate power stones into their initial letters it looks like I'm cursing :D And your review is pretty much spot on. Now I've started with inserting the 2040 chapters, so I guess they'll stay, but I did contemplate ripping them out and parry for the inconsistencies in the story proper. As it is now they're mainly implicit spoilers and help keeping the transition between worlds part alive when the story proper walks into slice-of-life -land the way this kind of high school story is supposed to do.

Omg it happened again!!!! S.i.m.p.l.e. Is this word a curse in some other language?! Yes, it’s a tricky situation, to switch enough to keep the other world still the mind while not distorting the flow of events too much.
