Review:
Another supernatural HnG fic (and, really, I think there's only two of them -- they just happen to be among the longer stories in the fandom). This time Hikaru's being haunted by a malevolent ghost (unlike Sai, who was more of the hyperactive, fluffy bunny variety) and, of course, he turns to Akira for help. Touya doesn't immediately believe him (so bonus points for reality), but once he does, he jumps right in with both feet and a grim determination to research till he finds a solution. Except they get a little distracted by their growing attracting for each other (yay!)
The best part of this fic is the plot, which is something most HnG fic is notoriously lacking. The ghost is also very creepy, and Hikaru's growing terror is very believable. All in all, a good spooky story with just a touch of romance.

Of course, there's only a couple more long HnG fics out there, both of which I've been waffling on (they're *really* long, and Touya and Shindou act much more adult in both of them, i.e., much less interesting IMO). Good anime/manga fic is just so hard to find...
Well off to read your Highlander rec... ^_^

(Also, I know what you mean about getting tired of anime. There is a very clear formula most of the time, so the only way see something new is to try a new genre. Which, to be honest, might be why I liked HnG so much -- it was my first exposure to the 'equate an everyday thing with warfare!' genre, so everything seemed new and exciting:)
Oh and I forgot to mention is that part of reason why I really like this anime is that not only does it have a good story line but it has some slashy elements.

Oh and I know this has nothing to do with anime but I found a really good Smallville/Sports Night crossover. If you haven’t read it I really recommend it, its really realistic even if it is an odd crossover. The only sad part it is its kind of short and no sequel.
