“I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day…” (One call away- Charlie Puth)
I incidentally heard this song when I was reading Watashi no Messiah-sama (WnM). And you know what? It’s surprisingly fit so well to the story which is fulfill with darkness and drama.

As I expected from Minazuki Suu, I can’t help claiming that he did write a great story. Even though it’s not one of the best in my opinion, the impression which is logged after reading this isn’t small. Is there someone you want to protect at all cost? If so, what will you feel when that important person collapse in front of you? Tragedies, desperations come too quick really affects to reader’s dither. Trouble after trouble, the intension always at level max can make us being attracted, but also cause confusion at some parts.

Yumiki Shinya is a meek boy who I believe can’t find anything good from himself: not athletics, not too good at study, always being bullied… But one day, a special girl comes and tells him that he is a Messiah – the person who has been chosen to save her and his world. The things I like about this part are Shinya has to fight and learn to get used to his power, or you can say he has transformed from a normal high school boy to a potential God. Because of that, he is getting stronger and braver, also gets along with his friends to beat enemies.

About the characters, of course the improvement of Shinya is impressive, but let’s don’t forget about the others.
Minazuki-sensei focuses a lot on their emotions so that I thought he tends to make WnM to be a roller coaster, but in few scenes, there’re some parts which cause incomprehension and ruined readers’ feelings.
Most of the protagonists are girls so there must be harem in this story, but Shinya already has the one he loves so it just flows slowly throughout chapters.
Characters are well designed with great characteristics so that their decisions are both understandable and unforeseen.

Art: Overall, the art is quite good. Sometimes it seems to be cracked, especially at climaxes, makes all the things I can see are a mess. Ignoring that, the characters has been drawn carefully; and Tarutaru ‘chibi’ is really cute.

Enjoyment:
As a big fan of Sora no Otoshimono, it’s great to know that WnM has a same author. Although WnM doesn’t bring exactly what I was expected, this manga will be epic for someone who loves dramatic war and romance.
