Anyone have a good scan of the color page of Leo sitting on a chair from the inside title page of Volume 16? I would like to use it for my Pandora's BoxCharacter Chairs page.
I probably can't help with the picture (and I see someone already helped out) but I just wanted to stop by and tell you how amazing this project is :D I already bookmarked the site for reference! This is very handy and complex, you've put a lot of work into it :D
Sorry to be of little help about the pictures, but this website is amazing !!!! I can't stop reading it, and it's very lovely and well done, also already bookmarked on my side, good job !!! ((also for the Jack's cover, Oswald describes him like water too!))
Ada has such an interesting cover, you explained it so well !!! Also for the blue roses at first, I thought it was related to Vince, since he is shown with some on quite a lot of pictures if I remember correctly ... Or was it Gil ?
Blue roses are seen around a whole bunch of people, including Oz and Alice, but yes, they are primarily around both Gilbert and Vincent. Gilbert is almost exclusively blue rose, whereas Vincent sometimes has black ones around. Ada has blue, yellow, and black roses around her, sometimes simultaneously.
I just want to say that your page is amazing, and I love it, but I always read symbolic on Ada’s pictures in different way. I thought, Ada’s blue roses could be symbol of her loyal love to Vincent but those petals and fact that roses are damaged, rather show that her love would be wasted or betrayed, also yellow roses could mean treason but she also has blue feathers - which was given to important person, if I remember correctly? And red ribbon -I don’t know passion? What a mix, it really could show her relation with Vincent. And all these black roses are probably symbol of death and I think that it probably concerns Vincent (Really, I would like to think that Vincent could have family and normal live, but I feel that it is kind of impossible, sorry.) And plenty of character’s illusions or hopes were destroyed in this manga, so hoping that Vince would survive is kind of deceiving ourselves ( but off course it is only my opinion). And I really like your interpretation, too.
Yeah, everything is up for interpretation. Jun's the only one that really knows. XD Ada is pretty interesting symbolically, since she has so many diverse symbols associated with her - blue/yellow/black roses, feathers, cages, skulls, chains, etc. To me it all suggests that she's a much more complicated character than we currently know, or at least than I give her credit for. I'm very much looking forward to finding out more about her, and then maybe the meaning of the symbols around her will become clearer. I especially want to see if she has a chain, since her cover might suggest that she does.
Yeah, she might turn out to be more complicated character and she might even have a chain. I’ve never thought about that possibility, but you are right, almost all characters have chains on covers and in manga they actually have chains, so it is possible. But also chains could be symbols of their dependences, something that stops them, binds them and so on. And cages could mean that Ada hardly ever can decide by herself, always someone decides for her, so she is not free. Really, the only person who knows is Jun xD, but we are free to interpret and have fun.
