Alice in the Country of Hearts
review 1: A refreshing spinoff on the Lewis Carroll's book, Alice in Wonderland. I love the personalities of all the characters and how clocks tie into everything. The art is amazing and so funny at times. It is the reason I like manga so much. Alice is a daydreamer and a sleeper. One day while her sister goes off to get some playing cards for a game, Alice falls asleep and is kidnapped by a man with rabbit ears. He turns out to be Peter White and he confesses he is madly in love with Alice. Alice soon finds out that the Queen of Hearts and the head of the mafia's Hatter are both at war with one another. She also finds out that everyone in wonderland is in love with her.
review 2: I cannot believe the praise this series has gotten. It would have been interesting if it h
... moread adapted well from the game that still remains un-translated in Japan, but even so the manga is poorly drawn and poorly written.Manga is known for its bishounens (pretty boys) and cute doe-eyed girls, but the anatomy is way off - Alice sometimes appears so short it looks like she's being preyed upon by pretty pedophiles! Hands way too large, dialogue seems contrived and petty, it's ridiculous.Not to mention Alice is being sexually harassed so much that when things actually get romantic I want to start screaming at the book! Peter KIDNAPS her because he thinks it'll make her happy! She compares the Hatter to her ex-boyfriend, everything mentioned is so trivial nothing keeps my interest. It's a case of too many characters and the people behind the story had no idea what they were doing.Stupid, burn it, I sold it for cheap prices to get it off my shelf.WASTE OF MONEY. Go read Sailor Moon or Fushigi Yugi if you want the cheesy, cute stuff or a more proper romantic series if you want steamy. Chances are if the artist draws immaturely, the writer writes immaturely. less
