Honestly... my favorite piece of fiction ever written. I absolutely love everything about this and I don't want it to end. I haven't read the last volume yet because like I said I don't want this to end.
Story :
Complicated storytelling has always been a wild ride for people that don't like it. But to be honest Pandora Hearts is so well written that even if you don't like complicated storytelling you will find the events that take place amusing. I personally like not understanding what is happening and slowly solving everything piece by piece with the infomation given to me. The sense of ambiguity gets
...
me hooked. Pandora Hearts does a great job on getting you hooked. Right from the beginning you start asking questions that will get answered later in the course of 107 chapters and the pacing is on point too. Right as you start to feel like things are getting out of control and you have too many questions in your head it hits you with a reveal and gives you information.
Another thing I love about Pandora Hearts is how it makes you feel like everything is planned out from the beginning. I love this aspect on stories. Even though you don't know why things are happening you feel like there is a reason behind it. It makes you feel like everything that happens actually matters which stops things from being boring.
Another thing about stories that I care about is the world building. If the world where the events take place isn't interesting then you would probably care less about those events which could lead you to not like the story. Pandora Hearts's world is bizzare filled with references and is like an amusement park. There are different things to see and there are a set of rules that are in place. The rules don't feel like they were put there just for the sake of the story instead they feel like the story was built around those rules which is something a lot of stories fail to do.
Art :
Nothing to say here. Art is very subjective. I really like the new original spin the art style has on alice in wonderland. The backgrounds in the intense scenes really set the mood and the character designs make me want to wish those characters actually existed.
Characters :
ECHO BEST CHARACTER IF YOU DON'T AGREE YOUR OPINION IS WRONG. Ok jokes aside these fictional characters make me feel REAL emotions. I cried, laughed, felt sad, felt angry multiple times while reading this manga and I honestly don't know how these characters are so well written, they just... work so well in this world. Pandora Hearts does an incredible job at making you care about these characters with well written dialouge and backstories. These characters have ideologies, opinions there is none of that good guy bad guy bs (I mean yes there is but also no and I can't tell you why because spoilers) and I love that.
Enjoyment :
wow this part is very subjective and I am mostly gonna talk about my opinions. So the enjoyment you will get from Pandora Hearts is mostly tied to how much you like complicated storytelling. But even if you don't like complicated stuff I am pretty sure that you will enjoy the amazing world building and the likeable characters that made me cry like a baby. I really enjoyed pandora hearts, all the funny moments all the deep lore all the world building, it's almost like this was made for me. This is turning into me screaming about how much I love pandora hearts instead of an actual review so going back on topic. If you like fantasy adventure action type of series with a complicated way of giving information then you will most likely enjoy this a lot.
Overall :
Pandora Hearts is an amazingly well crafted fantasy action adventure series with likeable characters, an unimaginably interesting lore and an insane artstyle. 11 out of 10, five stars. Would recommend it to everyone.
