Pandora Hearts Opening



Pandora Hearts is a Japanese manga series by Jun Mochizuki, published by Square Enix. It was adapted into anime series last April, and is still ongoing! Today I`m going to post my first impression, I know I should`ve posted this ages ago but I`m quiet busy with Visual Novels and Destiny Online! xD

Let`s start with the plot;

Oz Vessalius, heir to one of the duke houses, 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, he's cast into the prison known as the "Abyss", only to be saved by a "chain" known as Alice, the bloodstained black rabbit. The mystery there begins as Oz unravels the mystery behind Alice, the Abyss and the strange organization known as Pandora. The series features heavy references to Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking Glass" and can be considered both fantasy and mystery.

Characters:

Oz Vessalius


Gilbert Nightray


Alice

I love the opening theme of this anime. You can tell that a lot is going to happen
here and that there will be some dark moments along the way. The first episode of this anime wont give you the feeling that you would like it, but after a few episodes it keeps getting better and better, and I`m sure you`ll love this anime!

Things I like about this anime:

• The beautiful secenery of the Bezarius house! x3
• The opening theme by Fiction Junction!
• The characters! Yeap I love the artwork, eventhough I didn`t follow the manga.
• The mysterious storyline with some random comedy in it!^^

First episode summary: "Innocent Calm"

Oz Bezarius (also spelt Vessalius) spends his 15th birthday running away from the maids with his younger sister, Ada and servant, Gilbert. They hide out at Oz's secret spot, where he accidentally falls through the ground leading to a hidden cemetery. There's only one grave there, and a pocket watch is attached to it. As Oz grabs the pocket watch from the tomb, he sees a vision of a homicidal girl before being brought back to reality by Gilbert. While he prepares for his coming of age ceremony, strange figures gather and prepare to carry out their scheme.
