Pandora Hearts Chapter Titles

Administrator — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 02:34:43 +0000

FYI, here’re the translations of the Japanese titles for Vol. 8:

XXXI:The Price of Loss
XXXII: The Crimson of Ill Omen
XXXIII: The Thoughts that the Blue Holds

The character guide mentioned that Oz giving blue feathers to Echo at the festival is like a marriage proposal.

Mochizuki-sensei’s blog once mentioned that when Break says “I” in katakana, it’s Break speaking, and when it’s in hiragana, it’s Kevin speaking, but in some cases, the kana has been erroneously edited.

Arundel in Wonderland

Arundel is a shop in Jiyugaoka that sells European imported items, a lot of them Alice in Wonderland goods. Last Saturday an exhibit/sale of Alice-themed goods by various Japanese artists began, so I went to take a look.

A lot of the items were accessories. There were fashion items such as overknee socks with tea party prints, stationery items (postcards and letter sets), and one-of illustrations in b&w and color. There was a table full of English Alice books as well.

You can see photos on the shop blog.

Pandora Hearts Manuscripts Exhibit

The other day I was at Animate Yokohama for the Jun Mochizuki manuscripts exhibit. The majority of the displayed works were from Pandora Hearts, and the rest were color illustrations for the Boukyaku no Haoh Roland manga and novel.

The exhibited works were all color illustrations (no manga manuscripts). Most of the illustrations were from recent chapter covers. Cover illustrations for volumes 14 and 15, and the novel was on display, as well as calendar illustrations.

I bought volume 15 at the venue, and received this postcard:

The text says “Thanks for coming.” and “It’s a secret that I wanted to have him wear a lab coat instead.”
