Customer review of: Alice 19th, Volume 2: Inner Heart (Alice 19th (Graphic Novels)) Customer Rating: Summary: bittersweet Comment: This book is nice. It is romantic, and very funny. Some shaky parts are a bloody fight, 2 kisses, 2 curse words, and a kid with an abusive dad. He's dead though. (just saying) What makes it so funny is a forigner who has come of age, and must find a bride. Alice was chosen, and this guy just goes nuts over her! He gets a job at Kyo Wakamiya's aunt's resturaunt. This book will want to make you NEED the next issue. -mangafreak Customer Rating: Summary: getting better...still not perfect... Comment: Volume two of this series begins with the introduction of Frey Weilhausen, a member of the Northern European branch of the Lotsuan Legion of Sacred Guides. Frey is from Norway and is a fellow Lotis Master, one determined to make Alice his bride. He teachers her about the Lotis words, that there are 24 in all and that as she learns more and more of them she will earn a new jewel on her bracelet. They encounter Alice's mother, who pulls them all into the depth of her "mara"...that is the darkness which lies in the human heart. It is this darkness to which Mayura has disappeared into. After they exorcise Alice's mother, they enter back into the real world where Kyo decides to put up Frey at his home. At school the rumor mongers are hard at work, what with such spicy news as Mayura's disappearance and Kyo and Alice's sudden closeness. A girl named Oishi, one of Alice's eternal tormentors, decides to stir the muck by approaching Kyo to date her instead of Mayura. When he refuses she spreads an event from his past around school in retaliation. This new bit of info follows him about relentlessly, and it even causes him to lose his normally calm demeanor and almost get into a fight. His past with his parents is revealed, and the three have to battle another bout of mara thanks to Oishi. During this time Alice and Kyo bond a bit, but she still does not have the courage to tell him how she feels. He is indecisive about whether he should remain dating Mayura or not, and she doesn't know quite how to take that. Along with Mayura, Alice's father suddenly becomes absent as well. If I say much more, I will reveal far too much of the growing plot. I'm still under the impression that this is not as good as previous series of Watase's, but I like the direction in which it is going. I can see that over time, as more characters are introduced and Alice becomes a stronger person that the storyline is only going to get better. The illustrations seemed much nicer in this one as well, even though I still don't really find Alice appealing. I think this comes from the fact that she resembles an old friend of mine with, shall we say, a not so stellar personality, and that messes with my head a bit. Overall, I do recommend this series to fans of fantasy manga, and Watase work alike. I think you'll warm up to it, just like I am. Customer Rating: Summary: Summary Comment: ok, im not really a kid, but it seems so much less hassle if i said i was. anyway, before i read this book, i was so PISSED reading all the other peoples reviews, because they dont tell you what the book was about and just say stuff like, "omg! this book was so wonderful! blah blah book great blah blah blah. HELLO! we KNOW. ok, so YES, this book was GREAT. seriously. this was my first ever manga book, so i dont know if my review is biased, but it was seriously wonderful. so now to the summary part. continuin on from the last book, alice finds out who frey (frei?) is, and he explains a bit of the lotis words to her and try to whisk her away to get married. kyo gets all worried and learns a lotis word and finds alice and sort of stop frey (frei) from taking her away. next, the 3 of them find out that alice's mom has some darkness inside her heart, so then frei demonstrates how to get rid of it. then alice promises to get mayura back and...yea. i want to say more, but i think it will ruin this book, so all im saying is, you find out a bit about kyos past and they go into a girl at schools heart and kyo and alice each master another lotis word. finally, in the end, something unexpected happens. i wont say anymore, but it concerns mayura and kyos relationship. if you want to find out what happens, just BUY THE BOOK! seriously, and if you dont have the first one, you BETTER buy that one too. i hope this review helped you. um...bye? Customer Rating: Summary: even better Comment: In this book, Alice meets Frey, a foreign boy who declares that he will marry her and knows way more about the Lotis Words than she does. Alice also has to deal with the ugly emotions of her mother and a classmate who liked to bully her. For those of you who like Kyo, there's also more about his past and the reasons why he acts the way he does, keeping others at a distance. I'm really loving this series. I love the concept of the Lotis Words. This is also a great series for bishounen lovers - Kyo and Frey are just gorgeous... I know, I know, enough with the fan-girl-ness, but they really are gorgeous. Frey makes me laugh, too. Sometimes he's really serious, and other times, maybe even the next panel, he's being totally goofy. He's also a bit of a lady's man and is more touchie feelie than Kyo. This is an excellent series that I would recommend to anyone who likes romantic manga with a heavy dollop of fantasy. If you've read Watase's other works and enjoyed them, you can't go wrong with this series. Customer Rating: Summary: Turning into something great. Comment: A new Lotis master turns up!!! Would you believe it? Of course you probely would, since you are reading a series done by one of the coolest comic artists alive today. Don't take he work lightly, buy this to make yourself proud. The Lotis Master's name is Frey. He's a foreigner who claims he loves Alice, but how can that be true when he flirts with every girl he comes in contact with!? I'd say he's the funniest thing in the whole series, and Kyo is definately a close second. Anywho, Frey turns up all of a sudden and kidnaps Alice, leaving Kyo and Nyozeka. But Kyo follows them and they wind up at Alice's house. There they go inside Alice's mom's inner heart to rid her of her Mara {darkness in her soul that a lotis master could fix if they know the right words}. In the next chapter, a snobby girl named Oishi enters the picture and starts saying mean things to Kyo and Alice. The trio go into her inner heart to rid of a monster and the Mara. And guess who makes an appearence in this book! I'm not telling you anymore than that so you won't buy it, but it is highly recommended.
Editorial Reviews: In this volume, Lotis Master Frei explains the power of the Lotis words to Alice. That's fine, she thinks - but when he decides he wants to marry her, much to her chagrin - he tries to seal the deal with a kiss, and Alice is ready to fight. Rabbit-girl Nyozeka sees that Kyou has the potential to become a Lotis Master himself, if only he would realize it. Meanwhile, Frei and Alice must enter the "inner heart" of her mother to eradicate the evil therein. Complicating matters even more, Mayura has been swallowed by a very powerful demon, and Alice is not at all sure that her magic bracelet or the magic words will help her save her sister.
