Book Reviews of Pandora Hearts, Vol. 1
Book Review: This is ONLY the beginning
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a manga/anime fan, to say the least. I'm addicted to it like some people are addicted to crack. And you could say that I have a plethora of experience on reading manga and watching anime. Maybe it's because of that that I understood this volume perfectly. Maybe, maybe not. But I understood everything, and each character looked distinctly different, or at least I could make out the different characters. I have the peculiar ability to just absorb information when I read and not make remarks or think. That means I don't really get confused until the end of something. But this didn't really confuse me, which doesn't mean that I didn't have questions. But I fully expected them to be answered, and they are -- in later chapters.
I think that this volume is meant to be a mystery, meant to have a lot of questions that set the groundwork for the rest. This is one of my favorite series that I've reread multiple times. And considering how much manga I've read, that says something.
The first volume might confuse you a bit, but just continue. Read the second volume. And you'll slowly see the mystery unfold, which is one of the best parts of this series. The art is amazing, character development phenomenal, and plot astounding. Basically, I love this and demand you read it. It's really something you fall in love with as it goes on. I fell in love with all the characters.
If you're looking for an extremely lighthearted, fun, fluffy read that doesn't really mean much (such as K-On or Onidere), then this series is not for you. But if you're looking for a darker story, mystery, thrills, with glimpses of laugh out loud humor and amazing characters, then this is what you've been looking for. Actually, no matter what you're looking for, just pick it up and read it, kay? I swear you won't regret it. Well, you won't regret it after finishing the series, or even getting halfway through, I promise you.
Summary of Pandora Hearts, Vol. 1
The air of celebration surrounding fifteen-year-old Oz Vessalius's coming-of-age ceremony quickly turns to horror when he is condemned for a sin about which he knows nothing. He is thrown into an eternal, inescapable prison known as the Abyss from which there is no escape. There, he meets a young girl named Alice, who is not what she seems. Now that the relentless cogs of fate have begun to turn, do they lead only to crushing despair for Oz, or is there some shred of hope for him to grasp on to?Manga Books
