THE EARTH-INVADER GIRL! Kirio Muji has been adopted by an adorable robot named Q ko-chan and is taking part in a battle against octopus-like creatures, mind-controlled aliens, and his own government. But now a whole hoard of robots like Q ko-chan has shown upand when his hated sister Furiko is adopted by the most powerful robot, the battle reaches a shattering climax. With a mix of thrilling adventure and ultra-cute robots, Q ko-chan is a manga event not to be missed!
If you aren't familiar with Hajime Ueda's trippy two-volume FLCL, get ready, cuz the similarities are many. Both FLCL and Q-Ko-Chan have cute girls, giant robot battles, jaded protagonists... and the most confusing story ever told. Some may say "How can you get confused if the book's nothing but pictures?" Oh trust me, it happens continuously. At times it's utterly bewildering; you just have to accept it and move on. But Ueda's high-contrast, edgy art saves the day. So in the end I had everything to like and nothing to hate about Q-Ko-Chan, the Earth Invader Girl (Four stars is still good stuff, donchaknow).
