I have to confess, going into this series I was a bit slow on the uptake. I couldn't really follow everything at first, but that certainly was not enough to make me stop reading it!

Pandora Hearts is truly a wonderful manga with so much to offer! As I continued to read it, I was able to pick up on things that I was confused about initially. Everything fell in to place especially when I went back and re-read it. The second time around everything made totally sense and I caught both crucial and funny details I hadn't noticed before. It just made me love it all the more!

Pandora Hearts has exquisite art, story and characters! I really love how in-depth the characters are. To follow them on their journey from beginning to end, seeing how each event affected them and made them grow or stumble, and especially their interaction with one another was really enjoyable and heartfelt.

A great and very fun perk to this series is that Mochizuki provides her readers with a lot of super awesome bonus content at the end of each volume and in between chapters. Such as skits, fun facts about the series and its characters, and other helpful or just plan hilarious features!

There was clearly a lot of love and care that went into this series! Jun Mochizuki is an incredibly gifted Mangaka! I love her work and am greatly looking forward to her new series, Vanitas no Carte!

I would definitely recommend Pandora Hearts! And while this is my favorite manga of all time (and I could go on and on about how awesome I think it is), I know and respect that everyone has their own unique tastes. For those who are a fan of Gaslamp fantasy, Mystery, Psychological thrillers, Alice in Wonderland themes, Beautiful art, Fantastic characters, and/or a truly Gripping story, I would highly recommend Pandora Hearts as a must read!
