Book Review: Pandora Hearts Volume 5


Review:  #548
Title:  Pandora Hearts Volume 5
Series:  Pandora Hearts - 5th volume
Author:  Jun Mochizuki
Read Before:  no
Comments:  The story arc of the Cheshire Cat's dimension containing one of Alice's memories is concluded in this volume.  It remains a bit confusing as to the whole point of it all.  The actions of the Cheshire Cat, coupled with some confusing commentary by other characters at the end serves to make this subplot somewhat disappointing.  However, it does bring to light some more interesting tidbits such as the identities of the characters who appeared at Oz's coming of age ceremony way way back in the first volume.  Unfortunately, some of the characters look very familiar and the rapid appearance of many of them makes it hard to tell who is who and why they are important.  The art style is pleasing to the eye but once again, there are more than its fair share of frames where some bits are hard to define.
Rating:  6/10
