Change 123 (Manga)

It's been a long time since a Martial Arts/Action manga caught my eyes as I prefer stuffs like this to be animated. After reading a few chapter, I can't believe how much spell it can bring if it was relished with ecchi, featuring an Ass-kicking Bishoujo.

Change 123 is about a girl who developed multiple personalities to cope up with the martial arts training given by her three adoptive fathers. This plot was nothing new, but the character development was very good. Just looking in there pictures will give you an idea how they differ from each other(Yeah, We know they are all sexy and is oozing with sex appeal). After reading few chapters, I've destinguished the personalities as: muscle type (Mikiri), brainy (the tactician Fujiko) and Combat Artist (Hibiki). There are also interesting support characters such as the Ganga and Hino. The protagonist, Kosukegawa was a stereotype ecchi/harem character, a weakling loser though he has quite good charactiristics that keeps readers from hating him such as his kindness and his sense of justice that he gained from being a follower of Kamen Raider.

The greatest asset of this manga will be its Art. I myself was a fanatic of a certain mangaka for designing cute bishoujos, and this was the first time I admired something that wasn't made by her hands. The character designs suits there personalities so well and, yes, no one won't stick for some pages as this one provides a whole lot of fan service. Yes we know these are standards in manga but I never seen something as good as this one.

C123 was action packed, full of mind shattering kicks and pulls no punches. Tactical battle scenes was also well done and enough to bring some adrenaline rush. The development of the love story was a fun addition. It also have its share of wackiness for laughs.

Overall, Change 123 was one great deal for those who are craving for "Femme Fatale" characters as this one provides more than enough. read more

This is one of those case where you cant judge a book by its cover or a managa by its description on mangafox, onemanga etc

I cant tell you the number of times ,I passed it over cause it sounded too cheesy or stupid .I am now happy to say just how wrong that has proven to be.

This is honestly one gem of a managa , a true breath of fresh air with it originality , intelligence , bitingly funny comedy , right amount of Ecchiness , and well developed romance. Throw in some great action scenes along with some really great and touching moments of high drama and emotion.

Round that off , with a great storyline and true character development , its not hard to see how this is worthy of 10 in all departments.r read more
