Customer Reviews

The plot thickens . . .

It's very nice to see anime and Disney mixed in together. In this volume, we get to see the characters from "Pinocchio," "The Little Mermaid," and "Peter Pan." But it's very disappointing that "The Nightmare Before Christmas" has been omitted in this manga (but I'm guessing the characters will appear in KH2.). So in short, this is an attention-grabbing manga that will please both anime and Disney fans (but probably not fans of the video games, since this is a bit more childish than the games).

A Great Manga

Kingdom Hearts: Volume 3 By: Shiro Amano In this third installment of the Kingdom Hearts manga series, Sora and his companions continue on their quest, both to stop the evil spreading through the worlds and to find Sora's friends. In this volume the heroic trio finish up their business on the Coliseum World, they are then swallowed by the giant whale Monstro where they again encounter Riku as well as Gepetto and Pinochio. After narrowly escaping Monstro, next they travel to the undersea world of Atlantica, and finally they end up in the clutches of Captain Hook and an unlikely foe. Honestly, I love this series, no matter what anyone says. Though the manga differs from the game, it's still very funny, especially some of the animations. I rate this a 10/10.

The third volume in the cute and funny Kingdom Hearts manga.

This is the third in the four part Kingdom Hearts manga, which retells the video game's story in manga form. This volume covers three worlds from the game's story: Monstro, where Sora, Donald, and Goofy encounter Pinnochio and his father and Sora has a disturbing encounter with Riku; Atlantica, where they must help Ariel defeat Ursula to save her father, and Neverland, where Sora finally learns more about what happened to Riku and Kairi and determines to do whatever is necessary to save them from the darkness. I think this manga has a very fun and cute art style and I enjoyed the many humorous moments. Overall this series will probably appeal more to Kingdom Hearts fans than manga fans, so I'd recommend it mostly to fans of the game.

Intriguing book, not my style

I absoloutely loved the game, so I was intrigued when I saw this book. I opened it up and once and was fully thrown into the story. In this book, Sora moves on to Monstro, where he encounters Pinnochio and meets Riku, and Atlantica, where he helps Ariel defeat the evil sea-witch- Ursula. Sora then continues his journey to find his two friends Riku and Kairi, determined to do anything to find them. Very cute pictures and I absoloutely love the front cover but I wasn't impressed with the idea that the game is being put down into books, especially using all those Disney characters- I dunno it doesn't seem right. Well anyway, it rounds off to be a pretty okay read. And I'm thinking of buying all the other books from the series and reading them, I love the manga!
