>I can't believe Umineko is spending 10 minutes talking about the definition of "knocking on a door"
Ryukishi is so thoughtful that he feels the need to include this elaborate definition for fans not in the know and who don't live in countries developed enough to have doors. I tip my hat off to this esteemed writer.
I've only seen 5 episodes, but honestly, all of my complaints boil down to the fact I don't like the main duo. I like the boy to be slightly more cunning, and the girl to be more nice and feminine.
If I knew Ami would be treated well in the rest of the show, I could check more of Toradora, but she has to steal the show. I see the writer setting up the character development trajectories, but not delivering the extraordinariness I want in regard to Ami's.
As it stands, before having to come back to this, I'd rather watch Scum's Wish, KareKano, SukaSuka, Fuyu no Sonata, Chihayafuru, or 7+ MAL score harems that I've yet to watch. Was your favorite the girl that does sports?
Hello Kitsu! Sorry for being extremely late and not getting back to you earlier. I was just ignoring all the notifications for a while. Hope you don't mind! Plus, with Pandora Hearts, I thought I should form my thoughts on the series once I finished reading.
In complete honesty, I wasn't particularly fond of the series for the majority of the chapters. The main gripe for me was how the series approached its tone--or lack thereof in consistency. Its whiplash of drastic tone changes destroyed any semblance of immersion that I had. Especially when I wasn't so invested in the characters to begin with. Other than that, I thought the mysteries were intriguing enough for me to continue, and the series does have bursts of emotionally stirring moments that encapsulate what Pandora Hearts is. What made the series work for me in the end was the chapters leading up to the finale.
Which was the saving touch that I needed to feel the series was worth something at least.
