Review 160: My Fair Unlucky Boy

Art: 7
Plot: 7.5
Characters: 8
Sex: 5

All right, so the art wasn't spectacular, and the plot was kind of roundabout and never lingered anyway fun for very long. The characters were amusing and very likable, but the sex was only on a single page, and it was much too brief and vague to be interesting.

The plot begins with a young delinquent who goes on a gameshow where he is begging for a grant of money (supposedly to support his dream of a ramen restaurant). Instead, he is given $50,000 by a wealthy businessman who was only supposed to be visiting the program. He turns around and gives this money to his friends for their sister's illness. The businessman hunts him down, however, and takes him hostage as his 'pet' in return for the investment that vanished.

The difference here is that, instead of sexing it up with his 'pet', the businessman takes a much kinder approach to things. So begins the 'My Fair Lady' part of the story (hence the title) where the businessman educates him in manners and other helpful business-related things. Eventually the younger man is reunited with his father (the head of a large company) who had disowned him for his bad attitude and general uselessness. The businessman grudgingly decides to set him up with his father to get accepted back into the family and more-or-less have his life back. But the young man refuses, instead confessing his love for the businessman. And they live happily ever after or something.

27.5/40.

Recommendation: If you liked 'My Fair Lady'?
