Pandora and Aoi learn a few new truths in this last chapter of this series including pandora. Pandora learns that she has the light and dark of man and she has collected it for the god that want to eat her to get back their powers. things don't turn out that way and pandora is released.

Not much to say about this series. It's fluffy bullshit with little to no substance, even in "I love these characters" sense. It's a fun little read out of boredom, via borrowing manga volumes from the library. Not necessarily recommended for anyone besides teenagers who enjoy mindless fanservice and a silly plot, but it's also not to be condemned either (I've read FAR worst titles, some of which I enjoy personally). I did end up smirking a few times, particularly at the end showing Chibi Zeus (because showcasing Zeus as a whiny petulant child just... pleases me on so many different levels, and I WISH that side of him was shown more often in media because that would be HYSTERICAL), but those moments were short-lived, considering the length of the series.

Started just as bad as the rest and got slightly better? I think? It’s hard to judge how bad it is when it’s only slightly better then trash. I liked the ending though, so that was unexpected.

Pandora is revealed to be "food" to be eaten for the Gods to regain the powers that were taken from them; namely Zeus. She foils Zeus' plan in the end by killing herself with Aoi's soul as a dagger, breaking her hold over the Gifts and releasing them once again. Pandora's powers were placed within an actual human girl with freckles and brown hair, who can only speak Greek. This is the true Pandora, and the one Aoi finds and takes care of after the battle. She awakens with her memories intact, but can only say Aoi's name in English.

Ends on the premise that they can be together at last and properly.

As endings go I have to say I was satisfied with this one. I was not quite expecting the ending that came, which I thought was good. While it was not "out of nowhere" it was not where I thought the stories were going considering the flow of the first two novels. This third rounds it out and makes a perfectly entertaining story.
