So, yeah. There is a manga in Japan called My Balls. It's a nifty peace, lots of interesting concepts going around. But unlike the other stupidly named manga I reviewed, this one isn't very good... well that depends on your viewpoint.
Alright, so My Balls is an original manga series written by Harada Shigemitsu. Not much else to say about it. So let's go!
Story
I know what you're thinking right now. "What in the nine hells could a manga called 'My Balls' be about?" Whatever you're thinking right now, is probably wrong. This manga follows our hero, Satou Kohta, a loser pretty much. He isn't attending school and works at some crummy supermarket. He has a massive crush on his co-worker, Minayo Aizawa, but lacks the courage to ask her out. So, our story starts with the archangel, Micheal, chasing down the demon lord, Emanniel. A pact between Heaven and Hell states that Hell may invade the earth at a certain date. Heaven of course can't allows this, so attempts to stop the one who will bring about the invasion. Micheal attempts to trap Emanniel into a stone and take her back to Heaven to hold her until after the date passes. He hits Emanniel, but misses the stone and ends up trapping her inside our main protagonist's testicles. You did not read that wrong. So, our hero has to not let himself ejaculate for thirty days. He faces the trials of, drunken co-workers, lustful demons, and even medical issues. But overall, the story is really fucking wacky. Like balls to wall insane. If you come at this expecting that, you'll walk away content. If not, you'll be very disappoint. I came at it from a joking a viewpoint and enjoyed it greatly. The ending is also about the cutest damn thing I've ever seen.
Characters
Eh, nothing to talk about here. They're passable. We have the main heroine, Eylse. She's a loli, tsundere. His co-worker Minayo is a lewd woman when drunk, but other than that flatter than a board. Most of the interesting characters come from hell, like Ares, a horny succubus, and even Satan. Just like the story, the characters are insane. Micheal becomes a eighty year old man at some point. Just again, come at this from a casual approach and you should like the characters.
Art
Have you ever read a manga from 2004-2006? If you have then this artwork looks just like that. It does the job. Also, they love sex scenes, really bad and poorly drawn sex scenes. They are just awkward and you'll wish them to end quite quickly.
Comedy, Romance
The comedy is like the story and characters. Stupid and insane. Don't expect master level stuff here and it's passable.
The romance doesn't come into play until much later, but is actually really sweet. The last page is like the cutest thing ever.
Overall
This is a tough review. If you come at this manga knowing it's just wacky humor, you'll most likely enjoy it. If you don't, it will be a piece of crap. If you can't bring your self to do that, ignore this manga completely. If you can, give it a read. It's rather short as well, only 41 chapters. A one weekend read.
7/10- This is if you come at it with a lax viewpoint.
4/10. This is from a critic viewpoint.
