Pandora Hearts - Episode 1

The story started with Oz Bezaraeus punished by someone for his entire existence. The whole place was covered by darkness, though a low light was shining on the middle. Introduction
In his coming-of-age ceremony, Oz sneaked out from his maids with the help of his childhood friend Gilbert. Oz, with his younger sister Gilda and Gilbert were looking around the mansion. They visited the venue of the ceremony, and Oz noticed and stared at the Tranquil Clock, feeling nostalgy with fear on his face. Someone on their backs was whispering about the prophecy of the fated one who will break the tranquility. As they turned Oscar, Oz's uncle grabbed and invited them to his room.
As his uncle, Oscar will be the one to host the ceremony because of the absence of Oz's father. Oz asked Oscar extension for his playing time. Oscar let him go but warned Oz that he'd call a "Chain of Abyss" on him if he fools around on the ceremony.
Oz sees Gilbert as his friend, so with Oscar's help, he gave him a tailored made uniform for him to wear on the ceremony. Gilbert refused to do it for he was just a slave, though Oz still pushed him. As they chat, Oz heard a melody and tried to follow it. He fell to a secret plot and noticed a golden timepeace.

As he held it, he had fallen into an illusion with a girl, who was at first missing him, then suddenly wished for his death. The girl let Oz feel fear, and promised that she will kill him in the end. Gilbert helped Oz snapped out of it, and told him that he was just staring blankly. Oz brought the Timepiece with him as they go back for the ceremony as well as pushing Gilbert to go with him.
The story ended with Gilbert being controlled by someone, while Oz was busy changing for the ceremony.

Impressions..

For a story that falls in the mystery genre, I give it a two thumbs up! Covering only the first chapter, It didn't give alot of information about the story, but its really normal for mystery stories (they want you to want it scheme!) and it really makes me read the manga for that. The OP fits the story for its mysterious tune. Haven't bothered to listen Ed though, I was excited to blog :D

I can see that Hatsu-Aasa fansub was trying to mimic the Pandora Hearts logo, though they failed to perfect it in my opinion. The subs was really good as they have followed the most basic thing in subbing: readable.

Predictions.. (note I haven't read the manga)

This is a mystery, so I'll give my predictions. On the introduction, I think the one who was punishing him was Oscar. I really have no basis, but I want to believe that it was really Oscar. I think the story would be aligned that way.
The timepiece owner was a Bezaraeus, and was somehow connected to that Girl.

Rating: 4 out of 5

K-ON Episode 1 Review

A very ordinary (clumsy! lazy!) girl, Hirasawa Yui is the main character of K-ON! Just turned into a highschool student, Yui decided to join a club for a change. It's hardly for her to join any clubs for having no interest at anything except sleep, eat, etc. 4 weeks had passed, still she hasn't decided on a club.
Akiyama Mio (Bassist) and Tainaka Ritso (Drummist) are bestfriends who swore to each other to create a band, though Ritso was the most into it. Mio tried to join the Literature club but Ritso torned her application (that's what a bestfriend do.. really!). Ritso forced Mio to join the Light Music Club, but its on a "To be dissolved" status for all members had graduated already. Yui encountered Ritso and Mio on the faculty room, and overheard about the club, though she was more busy being paranoid than think about it.
Ritso decided to revitalize the club, hooking Mio ofcourse. They managed to get one member who is also a music enthusiast, Sawako Yamanaka (Organist). The three of them brainstormed to get another member so that the club wont be dissolved. Luckily, Yui got curioused about the club thanks to the poster and tried to apply.
Even without experience in music, except that clumsily playing a castinet childhood memory, Yui joined the club. At first, everyone misunderstood about her music skills, but she managed to speak up. Everyone still accepted her as a member of the club just to save it from getting dissolved. Yui didn't mind about being accepted just to save the club, or she just doen't know how to think.

thoughts

This episode didn't really give me much excitement, except the parts where they performed for Yui and Yui speaking out about her zero experience on music.

Yui is an unbelievably clumsy girl, though she really is quite kawaii, but clumsily.. lol.. For Ritso, I find herthe leader of the band. She managed to hook Mio and and inspired Tsumugi about that fake promise of making a band. Mio kinda reminds me Yui on To-Love-Ru. They have similarities. Tsumugi is a rich chick, though very simple minded.

Overall, it was really good. Looking forward for the next ep, and oh yeah, love the Ed.
