The black-haired guy is so mysterious!

So Oz and Alice are joining Pandora now. Interesting.

Alice regained one of her memories of her smiling with stuffed animals it seems.

I'm really curious as to how Alice was thrown into the Abyss in the first place.

A lot of questions and not much being answered in the first volume, but I like that a lot. The art's nice, but a little confusing due to the not-so-great scans I'm currently reading.

A few general predictions, that are probably hilariously wrong:

The members of Pandora, or at the very least Break, still have ulterior motives they're not sharing. Ones that aren't very good for Oz. Break's entire design and character screams villain.

There's something fucky related to time or something going on here. Alice recognised him before they'd met, and it sounded like he'd abandoned her. The mysterious dude from this chapter whose face wasn't shown is maybe an older Oz.

Gil survived, which surprises me. He jumped in front of a member of Baskerville because he recognised them, and in those two early chapters they built up some animosity between Oz and his mysterious off-screen father. His father was at "work" the same night the Baskervilles appeared, during a super important ceremony involving his son. That seems really obvious though. Maybe if time travel does figure into the story, it was future Oz, ensuring the past happens the way it's meant to.

That dark haired dude putting his hat on Oz was weird. He seems powerful though.

I uh.. still don't understand a thing, but I like the mystery.

So at least we know that Oz must've had met Alice way before (and probably the reason why she's in Abyss)

A very basic first volume, nothing notable. At least, I kind of liked the use of Wonderland (and Sherlock Holmes) vague references.

2/5

I read this volume while holding it in my hands and I can say that it's not entirely the scans's problem. The layout of a page or simply the composition of a shot can be at time far from ideal.

Pretty refreshing. I'm genuinly interested in all the mystery and secrets getting solved, so I will look forward reading the rest.

### Characters:

- Sharon Rainsworth
- Xerxes Break
- Emily
- Baskerville Race
- Pandora Organisation
- Unknown Guy, probably Gilbert, his name still not fallen yet

### Summary:

- Oz wakes up in Rainsworth's House. The man helping him reminds him of Gilbert.
- Xerxes pushes Oz into real trouble making Alice come out to protect her vessel.
- Alice states, that she is looking for her memories, that have been lost since she woke up in the Abyss besides her name.
- After touching the pocket watch Oz has another Dream seeing a mysterious man telling him, that searching for her memories will also answer his questions.
- Xerxes states that he, Sharon and X are working for Pandora to find out more about the Baskerville Race.
- Pandora wants to know about every path and happening from the Abyss.

### Questions:

- What is Baskervilles intent?
- Who was the man in Oz' Dream?
- Who is the third person among Sharon and Xerxes?
- What is Rainsworth's intent?
- What is Pandora's intent with all their information?

Kinda disappointed Alice didn't possess his body any longer. Although Oz was still himself, it would've been funny to see Alice mess around, when everyone'd think it's Oz. 

So, Gilbert's alive? That's good, but he seems older. Why do I have a feeling that the young Gilbert actually died? Maybe this Gilbert is from the future, or, like a parallel future, where he didn't die or something. Apart from the age difference, there just seems something very lonely about him. Perhaps in that other future, Oz died and Gilbert blames himself?

Also, where did the hat go? Gilbert gave him a hat on the balcony, he had it on for one panel, and in the next panel it was gone. Did the mangaka forget to draw it or what?

Theories:
- Alice is Oz's sister or other relative 
- the man behind the curtain in that dream is Gilbert
