Bizenghast Volume 2 M Alice Legrow Books Reviews


The second volume of Bizenghast has all of the strengths of its predecessor and unfortunately, many of it's weaknesses as well. Luckily for us, its strengths seem to balance out its weaknesses. In the second volume, young Dinah and Vincent are working hard to solve the Mausoleum's riddles. As they meet ghost after ghost, they also find themselves running into more personal challenges that are perhaps, even more difficult. The gothic artwork is at times stunning, and at other times, far from it. It's particularly frustrating to see a beautifully drawn panel right next to one that appears haphazardly drawn. One gets the impression that the manga-ka was either too rushed or bored to finish certain panels. This is a shame because when M Alice is at her best, she's better than ANY OEL manga artist that I have seen come out of Tokyopop. Hopefully in the next volume, she'll pay a little more attention to those weak panels.

At the beginning of the volume, the storyline seems to follow the pattern of the first. We see ghost after ghost as Dinah and Vincent are put in increasingly creepy situations. Although these situations are inventive and interesting, they're really not that important to the reader. You'll find yourself remembering certain creepy situations, like Dinah having to put a corpse together, but struggle to remember why the characters were there in the first place. Edaniel plays a larger role so we get more comic relief, but there's not much special going on. Near the end of the manga we get signs that things are going to change. We get some nice character development and the introduction of a new character. This makes me interested in seeing what the third volume will be like. I'm not sure that I'm interested enough to pay full price on it though. I guess it all depends on how it looks!

As a nice bonus, at the end of the volume we get to see the real life renditions of some of the outfits that Dinah wears in the series. All of them are beautiful made me wish that I could sow. As a result of this, I would raise my rating of this to three and a half stars if possible.
M. Alice LeGrow, Bizenghast, vol. 2 (Tokyopop, 2006)

Dinah, Vincent, and their new pal Edaniel (a crudely-drawn catlike supernatural being I adore) head deeper into the mausoleum to fulfill the second part of Dinah and Vincent's quest, assisting some restless spirits while battling others, towards the goal of meeting up with Edaniel's cousin, the second guardian. Along the way, we find out a bit more about our main characters, get some fun one-liners from Edaniel, and meet some new and interesting folks. I'm not quite as taken with the second volume as I was with the first--I would've liked a touch more character development than we got here--but the plot is going along swimmingly and the situations our pals find themselves in are lots of fun. Will be picking up the next volume in the series posthaste. *** ½
Loved the book
Bizenghast is cool if you're into that sort of thing. This made a great gift. The girl I gave it to really liked it I guess.
The book arrived bent. I left it pressed under another book for a few days, but it was still bent. Not just the covers either, the whole thing. Other than that the book was fine.
The art could be better in some places, but the chapter fronts are STUNNING, and the writing is witty, creepy and fun.
So yeah we get into the meat of things, we see how dangerous the job Dina and Vincent have and have something of a change for the heroine
Perfect! Wonderful!
