Hahaha damn! I was laughed so hard when read the last chapter, REALLY I MEAN IT! What was that?! Imagine a story that was developed so good, then all of the possibilities on how the story would goes closed, and the resolves compressed IN A CHAPTER! I don't know what to say. Is this what people call 'twist ending' or 'forced ending'? I think this manga did the latter.

I kinda disappointed at how the story ended. I had read some short mangas that also have roughly 2-3 volumes, and they did good at developed the story till it ended. But this manga is different.

Ok, let's ... do a proper review.

The story: 7/10
Okay, the story of this manga is somehow mentioning future, when some people (who appeared to be some loli) came from the future to save a person whose the 'seeds' may become a savior of the world later. Do you know what are the 'seeds'? Sperms. Yes, sperms. Actually their duty is to keep a high school boy's sperms from villains who was ordered to kill the boy who somehow will become a world's hero's father. What an interesting premise, right? (Did you get what i said? If you didn't, i'm sorry for my bad english :D and then jump to the last paragraph to see my overall part.)

From this point, i suggested you to assume that this manga has a lot chapters, because that's what i did when i wrote this review. Why did i do that, because when i read this manga i somehow put some hope on the story. It was a good sci-fi comedy story with many funny moments and sometime (or rarely) the MC throwed a short parody tsukkomi that made the scene more hilarious. Unfortunately, signs of a 'forced ending' (or so i say) began to show up at the last pages of the 13th chapter (the one before the last.)

Yeah, it's not like i totally hated the way this story went. I appreciated every manga and anime i enjoyed. Actually, if the 'forced ending' i said was true, this manga did a good job (yes, good, at least.) The resolve put in the last chapter was a plausible one, even though there were some long-long-long explanations that the characters should had to said (and yet they were roughly made sense.)

That's the flaw part, in my opinion. Actually there's a part in this story that I REALLY LOVE IT SO MUCH LOL!! Unfortunately, if i tell it here it would become a huge spoiler to you all the readers, so read the manga if you curious :D

The art: 8/10
I actually do not really understand about art and how someone made a manga, but i think this manga has a good art and tidy panels, the character art is also consistent. In my opinion, who is just a mere manga reader, this manga doesn't has any flaw in it's art.

The character: 8/10
Great characters, and hilarious to see that every character has its own way to make a funny scene, like the MC, an almost-shut-in high school student who found himself being protected by a badass loli robot (?) came from the future, or another loli who is the one in charge on that duty. There was a good potential in developing the characters, or maybe (in my opinion) every one of them can have their own arc, if the story was not ended so early.

The enjoyment: 8/10
Like another short story, this manga is like a wind, that is so good to be felt, but it's just for a moment. But after all, i enjoyed every chapter of this manga that consistently funny in its own way.

Overall: technically it's 8/10 if you count the average rate. But personally i gave it 7 out of 10, maybe because of that 'disappointed feeling' i had after read the last chapter. I still felt it, i hope the author is so generous he would make a sequel :( I mean it, since it's rare for me to like a sci-fi manga.

Finally, for you who is looking for some lolis; who is like sci-fi manga; who is looking for a 'twist ending' ; who needs some SHORT manga to fulfill your boredom; i recommend this funny manga.

Mixed Feelings

Who wouldn't want to read Terminator in rom-com manga version?
The story itself is reference to Terminator movies, but also contains many good references to other more and less known works.

Boku ni Koisuru Mechanical is mostly a cute comedy. It doesn't take itself too seriously. Despite dangerous situation, the mood is always lighthearted. Even the enemies were fun and, despite being dangerous to our protagonists, didn't really feel like bad guys that you want to die. So yeah, cute side of story is top-notch. Comedy is also rather high. Jokes were mostly funny and didn't rely on annoying cliches. On the other hand, I'd rate ...
