ooooh, aww... that's a little disheartening. Well the at least the positive of this awful curse event is that Ted/Taichi and Wendy/Kaori managed to meet. I think i recall in LSH that they were fated to be lovers and it's why Luna just gave him up without a fuss.
On a related note, it's been a little difficult trying to remember/guess work the characters because of the switch to Japanese names (which i don't mind) what ultimately gave you the decision to make the switch?
