Hiramoto-Sama has yet again blessed us with another piece of his artwork; however, long lost are the intricacies and complex plot that once lived in the pages of his previous work, Prison School. Instead, we are presented with a harem of girls that literally fall from the sky. Not having any clue where the girls come from, Ichiyoshi (the protagonist) decides to take care of them. The plot, Ecchi and borderline hentai, quickly turns dark and horror when we are shown that the girls have super strength, which leads to some gruesome death scenes. Given that the girls quickly multiply in a process that I won't reveal here, the protagonist realizes that the girls can present a threat and sets his objective to prevent the world from knowing about them.

Super Ball Girls retains the weirdness and superb art of Hiramoto-Sama, but can I recommend it? I have mixed feelings about this manga. The mangaka illustrations are top-tier, but the plot has been a loose end for me. It goes from unnecessarily ecchi scenes (kind of expected from Hiramoto-Sama) to action-packed/bloody sequences, but I don't see where the story is going. Sure, the girls are probably not humans and are a threat to the world, etc., but I fail to see what the goal is (and I am in chapter 17 already). The introduction of what I think are irrelevant characters that quickly disappear only to be seen many chapters later makes me question if those characters have anything to add to the story. Those useless(?) characters make me lower my score further.

Don't expect to understand the story, and don't expect hentai either. You can expect suggestive themes, some cliffhangers, and extreme violence.
