Originally I set this as "RTC" as a placeholder, but even now my thoughts are such a disorganized jumble that a proper review will have yet to see the light of day. What I can tell you at present is:

- this series and all its spin-offs are [to my knowledge] based on a visual novel from Japan
- I have a friend who originally loved this and kept attempting to push it on me some years back
- said friend now has done nothing but badmouth the series and how it went
- I've my doubts that said friend is aware of this series' origins as a visual novel and how that works, or if they do, they hate it all the more because of that
- of course I decided to start immersing myself into the series out of spite to that person, because that's just how I am sometimes (and especially when it comes to things this individual says, as they're excruciatingly negative over any little thing that mildly offends them)
- personally never been a big fan of anything Wonderland-related or -based, but so far I've really enjoyed this first installment and the way it has played out
- you've heard of bunny girls, get ready for bunny guys
- no, for real
- the plot that is building feels like a menacing undercurrent and sinister subtle tone so far but I love it
- everyone is bishie. except the Bloody Twins, they're shota. But everyone is bishie. This appeals too much to my inner 14-year-old self with her desire to draw all the bishonen and bishoujo. Someone help, this is dangerous.
- to my knowledge, the Alice In The Country Of... titles have all been out of print for a hot minute now, which means hunting them all down will be a challenge, so of course I'm going to put myself through that hell, because it's what I do.
- in emphasis of the above point, I've already ordered the following two omnibus volumes. You were a fool if you thought you could stop me.

I love the drawing. The pictures are awesome. The story line was cute but was like come on this doesn't make scenes. But it's okay that I going to read the next volume.

First manga and I loved it! Love the twist on the Alice in Wonderland story, the characters were great (love Boris even though his pink feather boa has me a little like "Umm...ok?") and looking forward to the next book! Let's just say I'm pretty much hooked on reading manga now

This is actually the first 'magna' I've ever read. I absolutely love Alice in Wonderland and was intrigued by the retelling I was hoping this to provide. It wasn't exactly as I expected it to be, but it was still cute nonetheless! It was certainly unlike any other Alice retelling I've read before!!!
