Book Review: Pandora Hearts Volume 14


Review:  #600
Title:  Pandora Hearts Volume 14
Series:  Pandora Hearts - 14th volume
Author:  Jun Mochizuki
Read Before:  no
Comments:  The events at Yura’s house come to an end in this volume as Oz and his friends fight against the Baskerville and also the Headhunter.  It was a great volume with heaps of action sequences.  The plot moves along briskly and there is never a dull moment.  However, the way some of the characters’ battles were predictable, especially on who comes to their aid (spouting clichéd friendship dialogue).  At the end, when the Seal was revealed, as well as Yura’s master plan, it was engaging and even a surprise in terms of the Humpty Dumpty chain.  During some of the action sequences, it was hard to know what was happening since the panels have too many things going on at once.  Oz’s shift in personas also gets confusing, and the way he uses his powers with little explanation.  Pandora Hearts is really getting into its stride with this volume.
Rating:  6.5/10
