Still More Randomness

rainwatersparkWhile procrastinating on my essay this weekend, I started reading manga again (yeah...I stopped for a long while). So, some random thoughts.
Pandora Hearts
So...Retrace 70...MIND BLOWN.
To be quite honest, I'm a huge sucker for Tomato in the Mirror plots, so I have to confess that finding out Oz = the real B-Rabbit was a pleasant surprise for me. But now I'm very curious as to what, exactly, Oz's character is. Is he a chain who doesn't really want to destroy things? Or is his new conscience a confounding factor caused by living as a human existence? MUST KNOW.
Also, I thought the whole "Jack is the villain" revelation was pretty interesting. It pulled off the Villain with Good PR trope in a very, very surprising way, yet despite coming out of the left field, it doesn't seem totally implausible. I must applaud the author for handling this reveal rather well.
Bride of the Water God
...Meh. I used to like this manhwa for its gorgeous artwork and somewhat endearing main characters, but now it feels like the plot is being dragged out by one romantic obstacle after another. Not interested anymore. (Sadly.)
