Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (Manga)

Story
The story actually followed pretty close to the game, with some extra stuff added which was cool. I liked the story in this one a lot. I never beat the game, and I got to see the ending of the game through this manga. There were a lot of funny parts too.

Art
Very nice. The characters are drawn really well and they all look like themselves. The Disney characters were drawn spot on!

Character
They were all in character, though some of them you didn't see much in the game, the mangaka added more to their personality, which was great.

Enjoyment
I really enjoyed this manga. I read it twice and I let my friend read it too and she liked it as much as I did. I can't wait to read Kingdom Hearts 2! read more

My review of this manga is based on disapointment. I love kingdom hearts, and i was excited when I saw the chain of memories manga, keep in mind i didnt read the first kingdom hearts manga. The manga remained truthful to the story, which I liked, however kingdom hearts is not a story that can be done in two volumes, at times I felt that the story rushed just to get to the next part, skipping over details. The art was the best thing about this manga. It was hard for me to enjoy the story because it was like Kingdom hearts was turned into a slapstick comedy, dont get me wrong, some of it was funny, but at some points it was neither needed nor necesary, I felt that serious characters were mutilated, sometimes it worked ( Vexen ) sometimes it didnt ( Larxene ), but this is just my opinion. Some fights were WAY too short and like I mentioned before , it felt like the story was rushed. Overall, i felt that this manga mutilated the story and characters of Kingdom Hearts and it was rushed, however the art is great and if you are a kingdom hearts fan by all means check the manga out, but dont expect amazing things from it. read more
