This is a short oneshot, and while it has virtually no substance to it, it's crazy and off-the-wall enough to keep you chuckling for most of the way through if you have the right mindset.

The best way to describe the humor in this is that it has about as much logic as one of those crazy cartoons that seemed so common in the 90s but with a focus on sex and with little restraint. This is clear from the beginning when the main character informs her club on the second page that they're being shut down, then she for some reason starts relaxing, getting ... undressed, and then soon enough she's fully naked and starts masturbating in the club room, only to be interrupted by a challenge from the boys' team, with the shortest member proclaiming that because he's "super gay" he won't be swayed by "that old [masturbation] trick". Yeah, seriously.

If you can put up with this sort of in-your-face bizarre ecchi humor, you should find a lot to like here, because this initial incident is a pretty good indicator of what to expect. If not, then... haha, leave now. RUN.

Now, looking at this critically, you could argue that the story is an overdone cliche, but that'd be ignoring the parody aspect of this. That's right, this isn't even trying to be original; Dragon Ball is directly referenced numerous times, and there's even a subtle MS Gundam reference, and I'm sure there are some other parodies that I don't recognize either. So criticizing the story would be missing the point.

The art is pretty good, but panels can feel a little crowded and the art is a little under-polished at times, but realistically, I'm not complaining; it more than gets the job done and beats out most ecchi oneshots by a longshot. The ridiculous writing style is quite unlike anything I've read before (except for the authors' other works) so I must say that this has a ton of character. Right on. And I was laughing pretty much the whole time, so all the more power to it.

So, to conclude, if you can turn off your brain and don't mind a ton of stupidity, give this a whirl. It's so crazy that you're almost guaranteed to get at least a couple laughs at it... that is, if you can get your jaw off the floor.
