Oz Vessalius, heir to the Vessalius dukedom, has just turned fifteen. His life is rich and carefree, darkened only by the constant absence of his father. At his coming-of-age ceremony, however, everything changes. For no reason that he can discern, Oz is cast into the prison known as the "Abyss", only to be saved by a "Chain" known as Alice, the Bloodstained Black Rabbit, B-Rabbit for short. The mystery there begins as Oz unravels the mystery behind Alice, the Abyss and the strange organization known as Pandora. - Wikipedia
Pandora Hearts is a manga series by Jun Mochizuki. The series features heavy references to Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, although I haven't read the latter yet. First time I heard of the title Pandora Hearts, I thought it sounds interesting. And when I saw the art, I readily considered watching it (mainly because of Gil XD). My first impressions of the series after watching a few episodes were nice, cute and funny. I also kind of like stories both with social classes and magic/fantasy. At first I thought it was kind of like Kuroshitsuji...I don't know, maybe because of Oz and Gil which greatly reminded me of Ciel and Sebastian. But it wasn't really. I think it was just the master-servant relationship.
Although I previously said that Gil is one of the reasons why i decided to watch Pandora Hearts, he is not my favorite character (actually, he was at first ^^), until I saw Xerxes Break XD. First time I saw him with Sharon, I thought and hoped that he wasn't just a servant or something. Because he looks cute and interesting. And then I was glad when I realized that he wasn't just a servant or something but one of the main characters, and is also quite powerful ♥. I love the mad hatter. And as you can see *points at the sidebar I am a Break fan girl XD. I love him so much. And he is actually the reason why I read the manga. Because I wanted to know more about him, what happened to him, his secrets and what will happen to him. Actually, I'm currently quite sad with what is happening to him... I hope he could regain back all his powers *sniff and his *sniff eyesight.
But it isn't just Break that I love in the series. I love the whole series - story, characters, art... everything. I love Oz for being optimistic and protective, Alice for being loud spoken and always hungry, Gil's loyalty and cuteness, Jack for being hot ♥, Sharon for loving and caring for Break, Break for being sooo lovable, Elliot's starightforwardness, and even Vincent for being gorgeously twisted ♥, and so much more...there's still, Liam, Reo, Echo, etc...lol. Sorry I just don't know what to say anymore. I just love the whole series... Although sometimes I don't like Ada... *wink
I sooo love Pandora Hearts... And since I don't know what to write anymore, I'll just list down some of my favorite quotes.
What is left in the end... is nοt always what yοu wish fοr. - Xerxes Break
A person will become stronger if it's for 'someone'. and those things which are true and those things that are supposed to be kept in mind... those things must be useless as an 'excuse.' - Xerxes Break
The sealed loyalty will turn into a keen edge. One day it'll eventually pierce through your most precious person. - Xerxes Break
Not being afraid to suffer isn't real strength! Only people who aren't prepared to carry their own burdens spout that sort of bullshit! - Elliot Nightray
Spoiling... that's one of the unpardonable sins, isn't it? You have to apologize for that. Properly, like a man. - Reo
You lost your memories right? Is remembering everything in the end really a good thing? Besides, why did you forget? Isn't it because it needed to be forgotten? Once you remember, you might have painful memories...and maybe even desire to die? It's scary to move ahead. It's also scary to stop here. - Rufus Barma
