Yami no Hitokiri 1. Poor spelling and punctuation make the grammarian in me weep. 2. Blatantly messing up the characters' personalities detracts from the story. I think playing up their foibles a bit is OK (ie, Sano acting like a pig at the dinner table), but actually changing them 100% (Kenshin turning into an abusive a*****e and beating Kaoru) is crossing the line. 3. AU stories are OK, but it should be said in advance that they're AU. It's not nice to trick the readers. 4. All vampire fics drain my face of blood. 5. All high school fics make me want to curl up in a fetal position or take some very strong drugs. 6. Mary Sues and Gary Stus just suck.
eek OMgoodness! How could someone try to make Kenshin out to be abusive! That's ridiculas! scream That is so messed up and out of character... omgoodness... uhg! That is so not cool.. He would never do that... I'm pretty sure that when the writer came up with that idea, part of Watsuki's soul died.

Yami no Hitokiri Yes, he would. I also hate Kaoru Sue fics where she's either this innocent, helpless damsel-in-distress or where she's a hitokiri who rivals Battousai. Both are stupid extremes and distort Kaoru's character. Similarly, I hate these angsty fics that turn Kenshin into a 29-year-old emo kid who cuts himself in the bath house. Yes, Kenshin regrets what he did during the war, but he's an adult and can deal with his past without being self-destructive.
Yeah, Kaoru's a really strong character. She gets over looked sometimes because she's not a powerhouse like Kenshin, Saitou, or Sanosuke so it's easy to forget that. Hitokiri Kaoru? No, just no.
xd Emo-kid Kenshin. That's a funny mental image. Kenshin and how he deals with his past is kinda complicated. On one hand, like you said, he wouldn't do something self-destructive like cutting but on the other, it wasn't until he learned the succession technique from Hiko that he valued his one life. It was something like. xd
