Credits Grade: 10 Kazu and his girlfriend Midori are in a real bind. Eganko and Horny, their strange friends from the digital world, keep causing trouble in the real world. Eganko wants Kazu all for herself, and she's willing to do almost anything to get him, even if it means risking his and Midori's lives (so she can save them later for a price). And so, Kazu and Midori are thrown back into the digital world and right into the lap of danger, where digital monsters want nothing more than to feast on their sexual energy. Meanwhile, Kimoto's strange new powers given him by the computer provide him access to the personal information of all the girls in their college — and I do mean personal! Will Kimoto and digital midget Shijin use this power for good ... or for blackmail?Just when I thought hentai manga couldn't get any better than Urotsukidoji #5 (which I gave a 10 out of 10), I was hit with Adventure Kid #3 ... and my world was turned upside down, so to speak. Urotsukidoji is famous for its outrageous violence and hardcore sex, pushing the boundary between gory and disgusting, but Adventure Kid is best known for its far out, perverted humor. To be honest, I didn't think too highly of Adventure Kid #1 and #2, at least not compared to other hentai manga by Toshio Maeda. The content of the series paled in comparison to Demon Beast Invasion. However, Book 3 has really taken off, and it's 10 times funnier than the first two volumes! There is SO MUCH CONTENT in this book, I'm speechless. It took me four sittings worth of reading time to take it all in, and then I had to go back and read it again just to get everything! The art is well-drawn and the story captivating. I had only two problems with this book. First, no page numbers, which is just sad. Second, my copy of AK #3 was unfortunately bent in the mail, to the point that it will always look as though someone folded it in half and sat on it. I do not, however, blame the company, because until this point, all my books have arrived in perfect condition. I call it a fluke. I cannot describe in words how damn FUNNY this manga is!! Maybe I just have a dirty sense of humor for a woman, or maybe this manga can appeal to a larger crowd than the assumed "single male horny geek" audience (you rascals, you!). Page after page, I could not stop laughing. There were times I had a hard time suppressing my side-splitting laughter to mere giggles in the middle of the night. I wouldn't even consider reading this in a semi-public place — because unless you duct tape your mouth shut, you'll never be able to hold it in! I have so many favorite parts, it's hard to pinpoint just a few. One is a returning character from the last two volumes: the creature that's on every woman's mind, the cock bug! Here's a hint ... this time, it can talk! Later in the novel, ultimate hilarity ensues when two very muscular, self-proclaimed "sex slave masters from hell" enter the scene wearing nothing but thongs, corsets and fish-net stockings, and try to seduce both Midori AND Kazu! I thought I would die laughing. Hell, there's even a guest appearance by La Blue Girl's very own Miko Mido in here!! But even that doesn't compare to the very best part of the whole manga — the end! If you purchase this book, DON'T peek ahead, or you might ruin the funniest surprise of all. I cannot wait to read AK volume #4. If Urotsukidoji #5 doesn't do it, this book will make a hentai fan out of you. Yes, even you. How many girls can get hooked on hentai? You'd be surprised. And until you read this manga, you'll never know the attraction! When I first started receiving new releases from Manga18 several months ago, I had no idea what I was getting into. I never would have dreamed of giving a hentai a perfect 10 rating. But thanks to Toshio Maeda, I'm a changed woman! (For the better or the worse, take your pick.) You cannot go wrong with Adventure Kid #3: MegaBITE. If you've ever considered trying hentai, this is the book for you. You'll be so busy laughing, you might even forget it's hentai at all.
